Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 11

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The given expression \(\begin{aligned} & 2\left(4^{2 n+1}\right)+3^{3 n+1}=P(n) \\ & \because \quad P(n)=8\left(4^{2 n}\right)+3\left(3^{3 n}\right) \\ & \text {For } n=1 \text {, } \\ & \because \quad n \in N \\ & P(n=1)=128+81=209 \\ & \end{aligned}\) is divisible by 19 and…
