An Intiative by Sri Chaitanya

$\frac{1}{2} (10^{2006} + 8^{2006})$

$10^{2006} + 8^{2006}$

$10^{2006} - 8^{2006}$

$\frac{1}{2} (10^{2006} - 8^{2006})$

Detailed Solution

Define A as the number of the elements in S, we have
$A = (\begin{matrix} 2006 \\ 1 \end{matrix}) 9^{2005} + (\begin{matrix} 2006 \\ 3 \end{matrix}) 9^{2003} + ..... + (\begin{matrix} 2006 \\ 2005 \end{matrix}) 9$
On the other hand, ${(9 + 1)}^{2006} = \sum_{k = 0}^{2006} (\begin{matrix} 2006 \\ k \end{matrix}) 9^{2006 - k} a n d {(9 - 1)}^{2006} = \sum_{k = 0}^{2006} (\begin{matrix} 2006 \\ k \end{matrix}) {(- 1)}^{k} 9^{2006 - k}$
So, $A = (\begin{matrix} 2006 \\ 1 \end{matrix}) 9^{2005} + (\begin{matrix} 2006 \\ 3 \end{matrix}) 9^{2003} + ..... + (\begin{matrix} 2006 \\ 2005 \end{matrix}) 9 = \frac{1}{2} 10^{2006} - 8^{2006}$
