Options

A. `(1)/(5^(2).7.13.53)`
B. `(1)/(5.7^(2).12.53)`
C. `(1)/(5^(2).7.12.51)`
D. `(1)/(5.7^(2).13.53)`

Answer

To solve the problem, we need to find the product \( t_3 t_4 \ldots t_{50} \) where the \( n^{th} \) term is given by

\[ t_n = \frac{n^2 - n - 2}{n^2 + 3n} \]

### Step 1: Factor the numerator and denominator

First, we can factor the numerator and the denominator.

The numerator can be factored as follows:

\[ n^2 - n - 2 = (n - 2)(n + 1) \]

The denominator can be factored by taking \( n \) common:

\[ n^2 + 3n = n(n + 3) \]

Thus, we can rewrite \( t_n \):

\[ t_n = \frac{(n - 2)(n + 1)}{n(n + 3)} \]

### Step 2: Write the product \( t_3 t_4 \ldots t_{50} \)

Now we can express the product:

\[ t_3 t_4 \ldots t_{50} = \prod_{n=3}^{50} t_n = \prod_{n=3}^{50} \frac{(n - 2)(n + 1)}{n(n + 3)} \]

### Step 3: Split the product

We can split the product into two parts:

\[ t_3 t_4 \ldots t_{50} = \frac{\prod_{n=3}^{50} (n - 2) \prod_{n=3}^{50} (n + 1)}{\prod_{n=3}^{50} n \prod_{n=3}^{50} (n + 3)} \]

### Step 4: Evaluate each part of the product

1. **Calculating \( \prod_{n=3}^{50} (n - 2) \)**:

This product runs from \( n = 3 \) to \( n = 50 \), which means it is equivalent to:

\[ (1)(2)(3)(4)\ldots(48) = 48! \]

2. **Calculating \( \prod_{n=3}^{50} (n + 1) \)**:

This product runs from \( n = 3 \) to \( n = 50 \), which means it is equivalent to:

\[ (4)(5)(6)\ldots(51) = \frac{51!}{3!} \]

3. **Calculating \( \prod_{n=3}^{50} n \)**:

This product runs from \( n = 3 \) to \( n = 50 \), which means it is equivalent to:

\[ (3)(4)(5)\ldots(50) = \frac{50!}{2!} \]

4. **Calculating \( \prod_{n=3}^{50} (n + 3) \)**:

This product runs from \( n = 3 \) to \( n = 50 \), which means it is equivalent to:

\[ (6)(7)(8)\ldots(53) = \frac{53!}{5!} \]

### Step 5: Combine the results

Putting it all together, we have:

\[ t_3 t_4 \ldots t_{50} = \frac{48! \cdot \frac{51!}{3!}}{\frac{50!}{2!} \cdot \frac{53!}{5!}} \]

### Step 6: Simplify the expression

This simplifies to:

\[ t_3 t_4 \ldots t_{50} = \frac{48! \cdot 51! \cdot 5!}{3! \cdot 50! \cdot 53!} \]

### Step 7: Final simplification

Now we can simplify further, but we can also evaluate the product directly or use numerical values to find the final answer.

After simplification, we find that:

\[ t_3 t_4 \ldots t_{50} = \frac{5 \cdot 7^2 \cdot 13 \cdot 53}{1} \]

Thus, the final answer is:

\[ \boxed{5 \cdot 7^2 \cdot 13 \cdot 53} \]
