Correct answer: A
- Use the condition
Since with , we have So is strictly increasing on , hence one-one and onto (being an odd polynomial of odd degree). Therefore is the inverse function of , so for every real in the range of , and the range of is all of .
Thus, So the problem reduces to finding
- Use the fact that the terms are in A.P. with mean zero
Given are in arithmetic progression and their mean is zero,
Let the A.P. be written as Since its mean is zero, the sequence is symmetric about .
Now note that is an odd function, because it contains only odd powers of . Hence
For an A.P. with mean zero, terms occur symmetrically as (and possibly one middle term if is odd). Therefore, So,
Hence,
- Substitute back
Therefore, (Equivalently, since is identity on , this is just the inside quantity.)
- Check options
The value is So the correct option is:
A: 0
