Concept:

The general term of the binomial (a + b)n is given by T_r+1 = ⁿC_ra^n-rb^r.

Calculation:

Given, 

∴ General term, 

⇒ 

For constant term, power of x = 0

⇒ 2r - 12 = 0

⇒ r = 6

∴  = α × 28 ×  

⇒ α = 

⇒ 25α = 9 × 11 × 7 = 693.

∴ The value of 25α is equal to 693.

The correct value is Option 3.

Explanation:

Given:

⇒ Mean x = np = 6....(i)

⇒ SD = ...(ii)

Dividing (ii) by (i), we get

⇒ 

⇒ q= 1/3

Now

⇒ p = 1 – q = 1- 1\3 = 2/3

From (i)

⇒

⇒n =9

∴ Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Given:

(8 + 3√7) 20  = U + V...(i)

(8 - 3√7) 20  = W...(ii)

⇒ (U + V)W =] (8 + 3√7) 20][(8 - 3√7) 20]

= (64 – 63)²⁰ = 1²⁰ = 1

∴ Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

Given:

(8 + 3√7) 20  = U + V...(i)

(8 - 3√7) 20  = W...(ii)

Here, 0

Now, adding Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get

U + V +W = (8 + 3√7) 20 + (8 - 3√7) 20

= 2[²⁰C₀8²⁰+ ²⁰C₂8¹⁸. (3√7 )²+........+(3√7)²⁰

⇒ It is an even number.

Also, 0

Thus,  V + W is an integer

V + W = 1

∴ Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Let p(n) = 7ⁿ – 6n

= (6+1)ⁿ – 6n

= 1+6n +ⁿC₂6² + ⁿC₃6³+.......... 6ⁿ -6n)

= 1+ 6²(nC2+ nC3 × 6 +....... 6^n-2)

= 1+ 36(¹⁰⁰C₂ + 100C3 × 6 +........6⁹⁸).....(n =100)

= 1 + 36 k

where k = (100C2 + 100C3 × 6 +........698)

Thus When 7ⁿ – 6n is divided by 36, the remainder will be 1

∴ Option (b) is correct

Sum of n terms = s = ; where r

Calculation:

C(n, 1) + C(n, 2) + _ _ _ _  _ + C(n, n) 

⇒ ⁿC₁ + ⁿC₂ + ... + ⁿC_n 

⇒ ⁿC₀ + nC1 + nC2 + ... + nCn - ⁿC₀

⇒ (1 + 1)ⁿ - ⁿC_o 

⇒ 2ⁿ - 1 =  = 1 × 

Comparing it with a G.P sum = a × , we get a = 1 and r = 2

∴ 2n - 1 = 1 + 2 + 2² + ... +2^n-1 which will give us n terms in total.

Concept:

(1 + x)ⁿ = ⁿC₀ × 1^(n-0) × x ⁰+ ⁿC₁ × 1^(n-1) × x ¹ + ⁿC₂  × 1(n-2) × x² + …. + ⁿC_n  × 1(n-n) × xⁿ

Calculation:

Given expansion is (1 + x)²ⁿ

⇒ ²ⁿC₀ ×1^(2n-0) × x⁰ +  2nC₁ ×1(2n-1) × x¹ + ... +  2nC_2n ×1(2n-2n) × x²ⁿ

First term = 2nC0 ×1 × 1 = 1

Last term =  2nC_2n ×1 × x²ⁿ = 1 × x²ⁿ = x²ⁿ

⇒ Sum = 1 + x²ⁿ

Coefficient of 1 = 1, coefficient of x²ⁿ = 1

∴ sum of the coefficients = 1 + 1 = 2.

⇒ nC01n 20 + nC1 1n-1 2¹ + nC21n-2 22+.....+ nCn-1 2n-1 + nCn2n  

Comparing with binomial expansion x = 1 and y = 2

• General term: General term in the expansion of (x + y) n is given by
• In the binomial expansion of (x + y)n , the rth term from end is (n – r + 2)th term.

Note: 

• In the binomial expansion of (x + y)n, the rth term from end = In the binomial expansion of (y + x)n, the rth term from the start.
• If we interchange the term x → y, it will give rth term from the beginning.

Calculation:

We have to find 9th term from the end in (x – 1/x) 12

We know that rth term from end means (n – r + 2)th term from start.

So. 9th term from the end = [12 – 9 + 2]th term from start = 5th term from start

Concept:

The expansion of (x + y)ⁿ is given by the binomial expansion. The expansion will be 

(x + y)ⁿ = ⁿC₀ xⁿ + ⁿC₁ x^n-1 y + ⁿC₂ x^n-2 y² + ... + ⁿC_r x^n-r y^r + ... + ⁿC_n yⁿ;

The general term is given by 

T_r =  nCr xn-r yr ;

Calculation:

Given expansion is 

Let the r^th term has x¹² and the coefficient be A;

⇒ T_r = A x¹²;

The general r^th term of the given expansion will be 

T_r = 

⇒ T_r = ³⁰C_r 3^30-r × x^60-2r × x^-r = 30Cr 330-r × x60-3r

Equating the power of x with 12,

⇒ 60 - 3r = 12 ⇒ r = 16

Now the coefficient will be 

A = 30Cr 330-r = ³⁰C₁₆ 3¹⁴;

(1 - x)^-n = 1 + ⁿC₁ x + ⁿ⁺¹C₂ x² + ⁿ⁺²C₃ x³ + ....
Algebraic Identities:

a³ - b³ = (a - b)(a² + ab + b²).
Calculation:

We note that 1³ - x³ = (1 - x)(1 + x + x²).

⇒ 1 + x + x2 = .

Now, (1 + x + x2)-3 can be written as:

= 

= (1 - x)3 × (1 - x³)^-3

= (1 - 3x + 3x² - x³)(1 + ³C₁ x³ + ⁴C₂ x⁶ + ... higher powers of x)

x⁶ will be obtained by multiplying (1 and ⁴C₂ x⁶) and (-x³ and ³C₁ x³)

∴ Coefficient of x⁶ will be: (1 × 4C2) + (-1 × 3C1) = 6 - 3 = 3.
