If Cr stands for nCr, then the sum of the series
\[\frac{2\left(\frac{\mathrm{n}}{2}\right)!\left(\frac{\mathrm{n}}{2}\right)!}{\mathrm{n}!}\left[\mathrm{C}_{0}^{2}-2 \mathrm{C}_{1}^{2}+3 \mathrm{C}_{2}^{2}-\ldots+(-1)^{\mathrm{n}}(\mathrm{n}+1) \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{n}}^{2}\right]\] 
where n is an even positive integer, is equal to :
  1. (–1)n/2 (n + 2)
  2. (–1)n (n + 1)
  3. (–1)n/2 (n + 1)
  4. none of these

Answer

(A) (–1) n/2 (n + 2)
