  2. B \( 3 \)
  3. C \( 07 \)
  4. D \( 12 \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \( 3 \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given that, \(P(n):\) " \(2^{2 n-1}\) is divisible by \(\mathrm{k}\) for all \(\mathrm{n} \mathrm{N}\) "
Thus
\(2^{2 n}-1=4^{n}-1=(3+1)^{n}-1=3 m\)
Therefore, the value of \(\mathrm{k}\) is 3 .
