If (-1)n + (-1)4n = 0, then n is

  • 1Any positive integer
  • 2Any negative integer
  • 3Any odd natural number
  • 4Any even natural number
Answer:- 1
Explanation:-

Solution:
Putting n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 . . . .
n = 1 in the given equation
(-1)1 + (-1)4 × 1 = 0
Or, -1 + 1 = 0

n = 2
(-1)2 + (-1)4 × 2 = 0
Or, 1 + 1 ≠ 0

n = 3,
-1 + 1 = 0
We will see that the given condition will be satisfy only for ANY ODD NATURAL NUMBER.
