    The sum of the series\[1+\frac{{{2}^{2}}}{2!}+\frac{{{3}^{2}}}{3!}+\frac{{{4}^{2}}}{4!}+...\]is

    A) \[2e\]   

    B) \[3e\]

    C) \[2e-1\]               

    D)         None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                                    Let          \[S=1+\frac{{{2}^{2}}}{2!}+\frac{{{3}^{2}}}{3!}+\frac{{{4}^{2}}}{4!}+...\] \[\therefore \]  \[{{T}_{n}}=\frac{{{n}^{2}}}{n!}=\frac{n}{(n-1)!}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{T}_{n}}=\frac{n-1+1}{(n-1)!}=\frac{1}{(n-2)!}+\frac{1}{(n-1)!}\] \[\therefore \]  \[{{S}_{n}}=\Sigma {{T}_{n}}=\Sigma \frac{1}{(n-2)!}+\Sigma \frac{1}{(n-1)!}\]                      \[=e+e\]                      \[=2e\]
