Solution

The correct option is B 0

S=n0(1)rC2r

where n=11

We know that:

(1+x)n=n0Crxr

& (1x)n=n0Cr(x)r

So,

(1+x)n(1x)n=(n0Crxr)(n0Cr(x)r)----------- (1)

The coefficient of xn in eq. (1) is n0(1)rC2r which is equal to S

(1+x)n(1x)n=(1x2)n=n0Cr(x2)n

(1x2)n=n0Cr(1)r(x)2r ------------- (2)

Put r=n2 in Eq. (2):

Coefficient of xn is: (1)n2Cnn2 (If n is even)

0 (If n is odd)

Since n=11,

S=n0(1)rC2r=0

Option B
