(A) We know that the expansion of binomial coefficients is given by:$(1 + x)^n = C_0 + C_1 x + C_2 x^2 + C_3 x^3 + C_4 x^4 + C_5 x^5 + \dots$$(1 - x)^n = C_0 - C_1 x + C_2 x^2 - C_3 x^3 + C_4 x^4 - C_5 x^5 + \dots$Subtracting the two equations:$(1 + x)^n - (1 - x)^n = 2(C_1 x + C_3 x^3 + C_5 x^5 + \dots)$Dividing by $2x$:$\frac{(1 + x)^n - (1 - x)^n}{2x} = C_1 + C_3 x^2 + C_5 x^4 + \dots$Integrating both sides from $x = 0$ to $x = 1$:$\int_0^1 \frac{(1 + x)^n - (1 - x)^n}{2x} dx = \int_0^1 (C_1 + C_3 x^2 + C_5 x^4 + \dots) dx$This approach is complex. Alternatively,using the property $\frac{C_k}{k+1} = \frac{1}{n+1} \binom{n+1}{k+1}$:$\sum_{k 	ext{ odd}} \frac{C_k}{k+1} = \frac{1}{n+1} \sum_{k 	ext{ odd}} \binom{n+1}{k+1}$Let $j = k+1$,then $j$ is even:$= \frac{1}{n+1} \sum_{j 	ext{ even}, j=2}^{n+1} \binom{n+1}{j} = \frac{1}{n+1} (2^{(n+1)-1} - 1) = \frac{2^n - 1}{n + 1}$
