JEE · Math · previous-year question
- A.$${{11e} \over 2} + {7 \over {2e}}$$
- B.$${{13e} \over 4} + {5 \over {4e}} - 4$$correct
- C.$${{11e} \over 2} + {7 \over {2e}} - 4$$
- D.$${{13e} \over 4} + {5 \over {4e}}$$
Answer
B. $${{13e} \over 4} + {5 \over {4e}} - 4$$
Explanation
$\begin{aligned} & \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{2 n^2+3 n+4}{(2 n) !} \\\\ &= \frac{1}{2} \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{2 n(2 n-1)+8 n+8}{(2 n) !} \\\\ &= \frac{1}{2} \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{(2 n-2) !}+2 \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{(2 n-1) !}+4 \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{(2 n) !} \\\\ & e=1+1+\frac{1}{2 !}+\frac{1}{3 !}+\frac{1}{4 !}+\ldots . \\\\ & e^{-1}=1-1+\frac{1}{2 !}-\frac{1}{3 !}+\frac{1}{4 !}+\ldots . \\\\ & \left(\mathrm{e}+\frac{1}{\mathrm{e}}\right)=2\left(1+\frac{1}{2 !}+\frac{1}{4 !}+\ldots . .\right) \\\\ & e-\frac{1}{e}=\left(1+\frac{1}{3 !}+\frac{1}{5 !}+\ldots . .\right)\end{aligned}$ Now $$ \begin{aligned} & \frac{1}{2}\left(\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{(2 n-2) !}\right)+2 \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{(2 n-1) !}+4 \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{(2 n) !} \\\\ & =\frac{1}{2}\left[\frac{e+\frac{1}{\mathrm{e}}}{2}\right]+2\left[\frac{\mathrm{e}-\frac{1}{\mathrm{e}}}{2}\right]+4\left[\frac{\mathrm{e}+\frac{1}{\mathrm{e}}-2}{2}\right] \\\\ & =\frac{\left(\mathrm{e}+\frac{1}{\mathrm{e}}\right)}{4}+e-\frac{1}{\mathrm{e}}+2 \mathrm{e}+\frac{2}{\mathrm{e}}-4 \\\\ & =\frac{13}{4} e+\frac{5}{4 e}-4 \end{aligned} $$
