    If\[{{(2{{x}^{2}}-x-1)}^{5}}={{a}_{0}}+{{a}_{1}}x+{{a}_{2}}{{x}^{2}}+...\] \[+{{a}_{10}}{{x}^{10}},\] then\[{{a}_{2}}+{{a}_{4}}+{{a}_{6}}+{{a}_{8}}+{{a}_{10}}\]is equal to:

    A)  15                         

    B)         30

    C)  16                         

    D)         32

    E)  17

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[{{(2{{x}^{2}}-x-1)}^{5}}={{a}_{0}}+{{a}_{1}}x+{{a}_{2}}{{x}^{2}}\] \[+....+{{a}_{10}}{{x}^{10}}\] \[\therefore \]For \[x=1\] \[0={{a}_{0}}+{{a}_{1}}+{{a}_{2}}+....+{{a}_{10}}\]            ?.(i) For\[x=-1\] \[{{(2+1-1)}^{2}}={{a}_{0}}-{{a}_{1}}+{{a}_{2}}+....+{{a}_{10}}\]  ?. (ii) On adding Eqs. (i) and (ii) \[0+{{(2)}^{5}}=2({{a}_{0}}+{{a}_{2}}+...+{{a}_{10}})\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\frac{32}{2}={{a}_{0}}+{{a}_{2}}+....+{{a}_{10}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[16-1={{a}_{2}}+....+{{a}_{10}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[{{a}_{2}}+{{a}_{3}}+....+{{a}_{10}}=15\]
