    If \[{{(1+x-3{{x}^{2}})}^{10}}=1+{{a}_{1}}x+{{a}_{2}}{{x}^{2}}+....\]\[+{{a}_{20}}{{x}^{20}},\]then\[{{a}_{2}}+{{a}_{4}}+{{a}_{6}}+....+{{a}_{20}}\]is equal to

    A)  \[\frac{{{3}^{10}}+1}{2}\]                           

    B)  \[\frac{{{3}^{9}}+1}{2}\]

    C)  \[\frac{{{3}^{10}}-1}{2}\]            

    D)         \[\frac{{{3}^{9}}-1}{2}\]

    E)  \[{{2}^{19}}-1\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[\because \]\[{{(1+x-3{{x}^{2}})}^{10}}=1+{{a}_{1}}x+{{a}_{2}}{{x}^{2}}\] \[+....+{{a}_{20}}{{x}^{20}}\] On putting\[x=-1,\]we get \[{{(1-1-3)}^{10}}=1-{{a}_{1}}+{{a}_{2}}-.....+{{a}_{20}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{3}^{10}}=1-{{a}_{1}}+{{a}_{2}}-....+{{a}_{20}}\]            ?..(i) Now, on putting\[x=1,\]we get \[{{(1+1-3)}^{10}}=1+{{a}_{1}}+{{a}_{2}}+....+{{a}_{20}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[{{3}^{10}}=1-{{a}_{1}}+{{a}_{2}}+....+{{a}_{20}}\]                         ?.(ii) From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get \[{{3}^{10}}+1=2(1+{{a}_{2}}+{{a}_{4}}+...+{{a}_{20}})\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{{{3}^{10}}-1}{2}={{a}_{2}}+{{a}_{4}}+.....+{{a}_{20}}\]
