Prove that (.^(n)C(1))/(2) + (.^(n)C(3))...

Prove that `(.^(n)C_(1))/(2) + (.^(n)C_(3))/(4) + (.^(n)C_(5))/(6) + "…." = (2^(n) - 1)/(n+1)`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`S = (.^(n)C_(1))/(2)+(.^(n)C_(3))/(4)+(.^(n)C_(5))/(6)+"..."`
`:. T_(r) = (.^(n)C_(2r-1))/(2r)= (.^(n+1)C_(2r))/(n+1)`, where `r = 1,2,3,"...."`
`rArr S = 1/(n+1)(.^(n+1)C_(2)+.^(n+1)C_(4)+.^(n+1)C_(6)+"....")`
` = (1)/(n+1)[(.^(n+1)C_(0) + .^(n+1)C_(2) + .^(n+1)C_(4) +"....")-.^(n+1)C_(0)] = (2^(n)-1)/(n+1)`.
