    \[^{10}{{C}_{1}}{{+}^{10}}{{C}_{3}}{{+}^{10}}{{C}_{5}}{{+}^{10}}{{C}_{7}}{{+}^{10}}{{C}_{9}}=\] [MP PET 1982]

    A) \[{{2}^{9}}\]

    B) \[{{2}^{10}}\]

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

    D) None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    We know that            \[{{2}^{n-1}}={{\,}^{n}}{{C}_{0}}+{{\,}^{n}}{{C}_{2}}+{{\,}^{n}}{{C}_{4}}+....={{\,}^{n}}{{C}_{1}}+{{\,}^{n}}{{C}_{3}}+{{\,}^{n}}{{C}_{5}}+.....\] So, \[^{10}{{C}_{1}}+{{\,}^{10}}{{C}_{3}}+{{\,}^{10}}{{C}_{5}}+.....+{{\,}^{10}}{{C}_{9}}={{2}^{10-1}}={{2}^{9}}\]
