Solution

The correct options are
C S(n,n)=0
D If S(n,r)=28 then n=9,r=2 or n=9,r=6
S(n,r)= coefficient of xr in (1+x+x2+...)(C0C1x+C2x2...+(1)nCnxn)
=Coefficient of xr in (1x)1(1x)n=(1)r(n1Cr)
Now, (1)r(n1Cr)=28
This is possible if n=9,r=2 or n=9,r=6
S(n,n)=nn=0(1)n nCn=0
Hence, option A and C are correct.
