The sum of n terms of series ab+(a+1)(b+...

The sum of `n` terms of series `ab+(a+1)(b+1)+(a+2)(b+2)+…+(a+(n-1)(b+(n-1))` if `ab=(1)/(6)` and `(1+b)=(1)/(3)` is

A

`(n)/(6)(1-2n)^(2)`

B

`(n)/(6)(1+n-2n^(2))`

C

`(n)/(6)(1-2n+2n^(2))`

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`(c )` `S=ab+[ab+(a+b)+1]+[ab+2(a+b)+2^(2)]+…+[ab+(n-1)(a+b)+(n-1)^(2)]`
`=nab+(a+b)sum_(r=1)^(n-1)r+sum_(r=1)^(n-1)r^(2)`
`=nab+(a+b)(n(n-1))/(2)+((n-1)(n)(2n-1))/(6)`
`=(n)/(6)[1+(n-1){1+2n-1}]`
`=(n)/(6)[1+2n(n-1)]=(n)/(6)(1-2n+2n^(2))`
