Vedclass · Answer

(A) For $n$ odd,$n = 2k-1$ where $k = 1, 2, . . . , 25$. Then $a_n = (-1)^{k-1} (k-1)$. For $k=1, a_1=0$; $k=2, a_3=1$; $k=3, a_5=-2$; $k=4, a_7=3$; $k=5, a_9=-4$. For $n$ even,$n = 2k$ where $k = 1, 2, . . . , 25$. Then $a_n = (-1)^k (k)$. For $k=1, a_2=-1$; $k=2, a_4=2$; $k=3, a_6=-3$; $k=4, a_8=4$. Combining these,the set $B$ contains $26$ distinct elements: $\{0, 1, -1, 2, -2, 3, -3, . . . , 12, -12, -13, 13, -25\}$ (specifically,the set is $\{0, 1, -1, 2, -2, . . . , 12, -12, -13, 13, -25\}$ is incorrect,let us re-evaluate). Actually,$a_n$ values are: $n=1, a_1=0$; $n=2, a_2=-1$; $n=3, a_3=1$; $n=4, a_4=2$; $n=5, a_5=-2$; $n=6, a_6=-3$; $n=7, a_7=3$; $n=8, a_8=4$; $n=9, a_9=-4$; $n=10, a_{10}=-5$; $n=11, a_{11}=5$; $n=12, a_{12}=6$; $n=13, a_{13}=-6$; $n=14, a_{14}=-7$; $n=15, a_{15}=7$; $n=16, a_{16}=8$; $n=17, a_{17}=-8$; $n=18, a_{18}=-9$; $n=19, a_{19}=9$; $n=20, a_{20}=10$; $n=21, a_{21}=-10$; $n=22, a_{22}=-11$; $n=23, a_{23}=11$; $n=24, a_{24}=12$; $n=25, a_{25}=-12$; $n=26, a_{26}=-13$; $n=27, a_{27}=13$; $n=28, a_{28}=14$; $n=29, a_{29}=-14$; $n=30, a_{30}=-15$; $n=31, a_{31}=15$; $n=32, a_{32}=16$; $n=33, a_{33}=-16$; $n=34, a_{34}=-17$; $n=35, a_{35}=17$; $n=36, a_{36}=18$; $n=37, a_{37}=-18$; $n=38, a_{38}=-19$; $n=39, a_{39}=19$; $n=40, a_{40}=20$; $n=41, a_{41}=-20$; $n=42, a_{42}=-21$; $n=43, a_{43}=21$; $n=44, a_{44}=22$; $n=45, a_{45}=-22$; $n=46, a_{46}=-23$; $n=47, a_{47}=23$; $n=48, a_{48}=24$; $n=49, a_{49}=-24$; $n=50, a_{50}=-25$. The set $B$ has $26$ elements. The number of even integers in $B$ is $12$ (i.e.,$\{0, 2, -2, 4, -4, 6, -6, 8, -8, 10, -10, 12, -12, 14, -14, 16, -16, 18, -18, 20, -20, 22, -22, 24, -24\}$ is not correct). Correct count: Even integers are $0, 2, -2, 4, -4, 6, -6, 8, -8, 10, -10, 12, -12, 14, -14, 16, -16, 18, -18, 20, -20, 22, -22, 24, -24$. Total $25$ even integers. Wait,the question asks for permutations of $26$ elements where $12$ are even. The number of ways is $\frac{26!}{12!}$.
