A) \[\frac{1}{2}{{(n-1)}^{2}}(2n-1)\]
B) \[\frac{1}{4}{{(n-1)}^{2}}(2n-1)\]
C) \[\frac{1}{2}{{(n+1)}^{2}}(2n-1)\]
D) \[\frac{1}{4}{{(n+1)}^{2}}(2n-1)\]
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
Since \[n\] is an odd integer \[{{(-1)}^{n-1}}=1\] and \[n-1\], \[n-3,\ n-5\] etc. are even integers. We have = \[{{n}^{3}}-{{(n-1)}^{3}}+{{(n-2)}^{3}}-{{(n-3)}^{3}}\]+\[........+{{(-1)}^{n-1}}{{1}^{3}}\] \[={{n}^{3}}+{{(n-1)}^{3}}\]\[+{{(n-2)}^{3}}+.......+{{1}^{3}}\] \[-2[{{(n-1)}^{3}}+{{(n-3)}^{3}}+.......+{{2}^{3}}]\] \[={{n}^{3}}+{{(n-1)}^{3}}+{{(n-2)}^{3}}+.......+{{1}^{3}}\] \[-2\times {{2}^{3}}\left[ {{\left( \frac{n-1}{2} \right)}^{3}}+{{\left( \frac{n-3}{2} \right)}^{3}}+.......+{{1}^{3}} \right]\] [\[\because \ n-1,\ n-3\]are even integers] \[={{\left[ \frac{n\,(n+1)}{2} \right]}^{2}}-16{{\left[ \frac{1}{2}\left( \frac{n-1}{2} \right)\,\left( \frac{n-1}{2}+1 \right) \right]}^{2}}\] \[=\frac{1}{4}{{n}^{2}}{{(n+1)}^{2}}-16\frac{{{(n-1)}^{2}}{{(n+1)}^{2}}}{16\times 4}\] \[=\frac{1}{4}{{(n+1)}^{2}}[{{n}^{2}}-{{(n-1)}^{2}}]=\frac{1}{4}{{(n+1)}^{2}}(2n-1)\].
