Q46 / 160 · AP EAMCET 2005 · Mathematics
$\{n(n+1)(2 n+1): n \in Z\} \subset$
- Correct answerA$\{6 k: k \in Z\}$
- B$\{12 k: k \in Z\}$
- C$\{18 k: k \in Z\}$
- D$\{24 k: k \in Z\}$
Solution
Let $f(x)=n(n+1)(2 n+1)$
When we put the different values of $n$, we will get the set
$\begin{aligned}
& =\{\ldots-30,-6,0,6,12, \ldots\} \\
\Rightarrow \quad & \{n(n+1)(2 n+1): n \in z\} c \\
& \{6 k: k \in Z]
\end{aligned}$
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
