-1024144
B
-1022121

Question Explanation
Text Explanation
Video Explanation
Finding the terms in the sequence, we see that , ,
We would notice that all the odd terms are 0, and we are also asked the sum of only even terms, so we do not need to consider those
We see that the even terms are in an HP:
The sum we are asked is the inverse of these terms, that is: -1, -3, -5, -7, up to 1012 terms
The sum of this AP would be
Which is equal to
Therefore, Option A is the correct answer.
