Solution

The correct option is C 2S66S7S5=1
Given equation 6x22x+1=0 has roots α,β
6α22α+1=0(6α2+1α)=0αn(6α2+1α)=06αn+12αn+αn1=0 (1)

Similarly, with root β
6βn+12βn+βn1=0 (2)

Adding equation(1) and (2),
6(αn+1+βn+1)2(αn+βn)+(αn1+βn1)=06Sn+12Sn+Sn1=0 (Sn=αn+βn)

Now, Sn1=2Sn6Sn+1
2Sn6Sn+1Sn1=1 (3)
Putting the value of n=6 in the equation (3), we get
2S66S7S5=1
