 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> (r+1)(r+2)(r+3)6xr
:
B
(1x)4 = [1.2.36x0+2.3.46x+3.4.56x2+4.5.66x3+.......+(r+1)(r+2)(r+3)6xr+.........]
Therefore Tr+1 = (r+1)(r+2)(r+3)6xr.

 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 1.3.5.......(2n−1)n!2nxn
:
D
Middle term of (1+2x)2n is Tn+1 =2nCnxn
= (2n)!n!n!xn = 1.3.5.......(2n1)n! 2nxn.
Question 56. If the coefficient of the middle term in the expansion of (1+x)2n+2 is p and the coefficients of middle terms in the expansion of (1+x)2n+1 are q and r, then
  1.    p + q = r
  2.    p + r = q
  3.    p = q + r
  4.    p + q + r = 0
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> p = q + r
:
C
Since (n+2)th term is the middle term in the
expansion of (1+x)2n+2, therefore p =2n+2Cn+1.
Since (n+1)th and (n+2)th terms are middle terms in the expansion of (1+x)2n+1,
thereforeq =2n+1Cn and r =2n+1C2n+1.
But ,2n+1Cn +2n+1Cn+1 =2n+2Cn+1
∴ q + r = p
Question 57. If the coefficient of x in the expansion of (x2+kx)5 is 270, then k = 
  1.    1
  2.    2
  3.    3
  4.    4
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 3
:
C
Tr+1 =5Cr(x2)5r(kx)r
For coefficient of x, 10 - 2r - r = 1 ⇒ r = 3
Hence, T3+1 =5C3(x2)53(kx)3
According to question, 10k3 = 270 ⇒ k = 3.
Question 58. In the expansion of ( ax+bx)12, the coefficient of x10 will be

Question 59. If the coefficient of x7 in (ax2+1bx)11 is equal to the coefficient of  x7 in (ax1bx2)11, then ab =
  1.    1
  2.    12
  3.    2
  4.    3
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 1
:
A
In the expansion of (ax2+1bx)11, the general
term is
Tr+1 =11Cr(ax2)11r(1bx)r =11Cr(a)11r(1br)x223r
For x7, we must have 22 - 3r = 7 ⇒ r = 5, and
the coefficient of x7 =11C5.a11515) =11C5 a6b5
Similarly, in the expansion of (ax1bx2)11, the
general term is Tr+1 =11Cr(1)r a11rbr.x113r
For x7 we must have, 11 - 3r = -7 ⇒ r = 6, and
the coefficient of x7 is11C6 a5b6 =11C5 a5b6.
As given,11C5 a6b5 =11C5 a5b6⇒ ab = 1.
Question 60. If the coefficients of x3 and x4 in the expansion of (1+ax+bx2) (12x)18 in powers of x are both zero, then (a,b) is equal to
  1.    (16,2513)
  2.    (14,2513)
  3.    (14,2723)
  4.    (16,2723)
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> (16,2723)
:
D
(1+ax+bx2)(12x)18=1(12x)18+ax(12x)18+bx2(12x)18
Coefficient of x3:(2)318C3+a(2)218C2+b(2)18C1=0
4×(17×16)(3×2)2a×172+b=0----- (1)
Coefficient of x4:(2)418C4+a(2)318C3+b(2)218C2=0
(4×20)2a×163+b=0 ---- (2)
From equations (1) and (2), we get
4(17×8320)+2a(163172)=0
a = 16
b=2×16×16380=2723
