Q71
If the coefficients of xx and x2x^{2} in (1+x)p(1x)q(1+x)^{\mathrm{p}}(1-x)^{\mathrm{q}} are 4 and -5 respectively, then 2p+3q2 p+3 q is equal to :
A 66
B 60
C 69
D 63
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

We have, coefficient of xx in (1+x)p(1x)q=4(1+x)^p(1-x)^q=4 and coefficient of x2x^2 in (1+x)p(1x)q=5(1+x)^p(1-x)^q=-5

(1+x)p(1x)q=(1+px+p(p1)2x2+)(1qx+q(q1)2x2+)=1+(pq)x+(p(p1)2+q(q1)2pq)x2+\begin{aligned} & (1+x)^p(1-x)^q \\\\ & =\left(1+p x+\frac{p(p-1)}{2} x^2+\ldots\right)\left(1-q x+\frac{q(q-1)}{2} x^2+\ldots\right) \\\\ & =1+(p-q) x+\left(\frac{p(p-1)}{2}+\frac{q(q-1)}{2}-p q\right) x^2+\ldots \ldots \end{aligned}

Coefficient of xx in (1+x)p(1x)q=q+p(1+x)^p(1-x)^q=-q+p pq=4\Rightarrow p-q=4 ...........(i)

 Coefficient of x2 in (1+x)p(1x)q=q(q1)2pq+p(p1)2\text{ Coefficient of } x^2 \text{ in }(1+x)^p(1-x)^q=\frac{q(q-1)}{2}-p q+\frac{p(p-1)}{2}
q2q2pq+p2p2=5p2+q22pq(p+q)2=5(pq)2(p+q)=10(4)2(p+q)=10[ From Eq. (i) ]p+q=26...........(ii)\begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow \frac{q^2-q-2 p q+p^2-p}{2} =-5 \\\\ & \Rightarrow \frac{p^2+q^2-2 p q-(p+q)}{2} =-5 \\\\ & \Rightarrow (p-q)^2-(p+q) =-10 \\\\ & \Rightarrow (4)^2-(p+q) =-10 \quad[\because \text{ From Eq. (i) }] \\\\ & \Rightarrow p+q =26 ...........(ii) \end{aligned}

Form Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get p=15,q=11p=15, q=11 2p+3q=2×15+3×11=30+33=63\therefore 2 p+3 q=2 \times 15+3 \times 11=30+33=63

Q72
If the coefficient of x7{x^7} in (ax1bx2)13{\left( {ax - {1 \over {b{x^2}}}} \right)^{13}} and the coefficient of x5{x^{ - 5}} in (ax+1bx2)13{\left( {ax + {1 \over {b{x^2}}}} \right)^{13}} are equal, then a4b4{a^4}{b^4} is equal to :
A 22
B 33
C 44
D 11
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

The given expression is (ax1bx2)13\left(a x-\dfrac{1}{b x^2}\right)^{13} So,

Tr+1=13Cr(ax)13r(1bx2)r=13Cr(a)13rx13r2r(1/b)r=13Cr(a)13r(1b)rx133r\begin{aligned} T_{r+1} & ={ }^{13} C_r(a x)^{13-r}\left(-\frac{1}{b x^2}\right)^r \\\\ & ={ }^{13} C_r(a)^{13-r} x^{13-r-2 r}(-1 / b)^r \\\\ & ={ }^{13} C_r(a)^{13-r}\left(-\frac{1}{b}\right)^r x^{13-3 r} \end{aligned}

For coefficient of x7x^7 in (ax1bx2)13\left(a x-\dfrac{1}{b x^2}\right)^{13}

133r=73r=6r=2 Coefficient of x7=13C2(a)111b2\begin{aligned} & \quad 13-3 r=7 \\\\ & \Rightarrow 3 r=6 \Rightarrow r=2 \\\\ & \therefore \text{ Coefficient of } x^7={ }^{13} C_2 \cdot(a)^{11} \cdot \frac{1}{b^2} \end{aligned}

Again, the another expression is (ax+1bx2)13\left(a x+\dfrac{1}{b x^2}\right)^{13} So, Tn+1=13Cr(ax)13r(1bx2)r=13Cr(a)13r(1b)rx133rT_{n+1}={ }^{13} C_r(a x)^{13-r}\left(\dfrac{1}{b x^2}\right)^r={ }^{13} C_r(a)^{13-r}\left(\dfrac{1}{b}\right)^r x^{13-3 r} For coefficient x5x^{-5} in (ax+1bx2)13\left(a x+\dfrac{1}{b x^2}\right)^{13}

133r=5r=6\begin{aligned} &13-3 r =-5 \\\\ &\Rightarrow r =6 \end{aligned}

So, coefficient of x5=13C6(a)71b6x^{-5}={ }^{13} C_6(a)^7 \dfrac{1}{b^6} Now, according to the question, 13C2(a)111b2=13C6(a)71b6{ }^{13} C_2(a)^{11} \dfrac{1}{b^2}={ }^{13} C_6(a)^7 \dfrac{1}{b^6}

a4b4=13C613C2a4b4=22\begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow a^4 b^4=\frac{{ }^{13} C_6}{{ }^{13} C_2} \\\\ & \therefore a^4 b^4=22 \end{aligned}
Q73
If the coefficients of three consecutive terms in the expansion of (1+x)n(1+x)^{n} are in the ratio 1:5:201: 5: 20, then the coefficient of the fourth term is
A 3654
B 1827
C 5481
D 2436
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution
 Given: nCr1:nCr:nCr+1=1:5:20n!(r1)!(nr+1)!×r!(nr)!n!=15r(nr+1)=155r=nr+1n=6r1........(i)\begin{aligned} & \text{ Given: }{ }^n \mathrm{C}_{r-1}:{ }^n \mathrm{C}_r:{ }^n \mathrm{C}_{r+1} \\\\ & =1: 5: 20 \\\\ & \Rightarrow \frac{n !}{(r-1) !(n-r+1) !} \times \frac{r !(n-r) !}{n !}=\frac{1}{5} \\\\ & \Rightarrow \frac{r}{(n-r+1)}=\frac{1}{5} \\\\ & \Rightarrow 5 r=n-r+1 \\\\ & \Rightarrow n=6 r-1 ........(i) \end{aligned}
 Also, nr!(nr)!×(r+1)!(nr1)!n!=520=120(r+1)(nr)=144r+4=nrn=5r+4..........(ii)\begin{aligned} & \text{ Also, } \frac{n}{r !(n-r) !} \times \frac{(r+1) !(n-r-1) !}{n !}=\frac{5}{20}=\frac{1}{20} \\\\ & \Rightarrow \frac{(r+1)}{(n-r)}=\frac{1}{4} \\\\ & \Rightarrow 4 r+4=n-r \\\\ & \Rightarrow n=5 r+4 ..........(ii) \end{aligned}

From (i) and (ii), we get

6r1=5r+4r=5 So, n=5(5)+4=29 So, coefficient of 4th  terms =nC3=29C3=29!3!26!=29×28×273×2=3654\begin{aligned} & 6 r-1=5 r+4 \\\\ & \Rightarrow r=5 \\\\ & \text{ So, } n=5(5)+4=29 \\\\ & \text{ So, coefficient of } 4{ }^{\text{th }} \text{ terms }={ }^n \mathrm{C}_3={ }^{29} \mathrm{C}_3 \\\\ & =\frac{29 !}{3 ! 26 !}=\frac{29 \times 28 \times 27}{3 \times 2}=3654 \end{aligned}
Q74
The coefficien of x10 in the expansion of (1 + x)2(1 + x2)3(1 + x3)4 is equal to :
A 52
B 56
C 50
D 44
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

\because

\,\,\,

(1 + x)2 = 1 + 2x + x2, (1 + x2)3 = 1 + 3x2 + 3x4 + x6 and (1 + x3)4 = 1 + 4x3 + 6x6 + 4x9 + x12 So, the possible combination for x10 are : x . x9, x . x6. x3, x2 . x2 . x6 , x4 . x6 Corresponding coefficients are 2 ×\times 4, 2×\times 1 ×\times4, 1 ×\times3×\times 6, 3 ×\times 6 or 8, 8, 18, 18.

\therefore\,\,\,

Sum of the coefficient is 8 + 8 + 18 + 18 = 52 Therefore, the coefficient of x10 in the expansion of (1 + x)2 (1 + x2)3 (1 + x3)4 is 52.

[r\left[\because r\right.th term from end in the expansion of (x+y)n=r(x+y)^n=rth term from beginning in the expansion of (y+x)n]\left.(y+x)^n\right]

nC4(2)n44(13)4/4nC4(13)n44(2)4/4=61\Rightarrow \frac{{ }^n C_4(2)^{\frac{n-4}{4}}\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^{4 / 4}}{{ }^n C_4\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^{\frac{n-4}{4}}(2)^{4 / 4}}=\frac{\sqrt{6}}{1}
(2)n84(3)n84=61/26n84=61/2n84=12n8=2n=10\begin{aligned} &\Rightarrow (2)^{\frac{n-8}{4}}(3)^{\frac{n-8}{4}} =6^{1 / 2} \\\\ &\Rightarrow 6^{\frac{n-8}{4}} =6^{1 / 2} \\\\ &\Rightarrow \frac{n-8}{4} =\frac{1}{2} \\\\ &\Rightarrow n-8=2 \Rightarrow n =10 \end{aligned}

Q76
If the coefficient of x7{x^7} in (ax2+12bx)11{\left( {a{x^2} + {1 \over {2bx}}} \right)^{11}} and x7{x^{ - 7}} in (ax13bx2)11{\left( {ax - {1 \over {3b{x^2}}}} \right)^{11}} are equal, then :
A 243ab=64243ab = 64
B 32ab=72932ab = 729
C 64ab=24364ab = 243
D 729ab=32729ab = 32
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

General term of (ax2+12bx)11\left(a x^2+\dfrac{1}{2 b x}\right)^{11} is

Tr+1=11Cr(ax2)11r(12bx)r=11Cr(a)11r(12b)rx223rT_{r+1}={ }^{11} C_r\left(a x^2\right)^{11-r}\left(\frac{1}{2 b x}\right)^r={ }^{11} C_r(a)^{11-r}\left(\frac{1}{2 b}\right)^r x^{22-3 r}
 Now, 223r=715=3rr=5\begin{array}{rlrl} &\text{ Now, } 22-3 r =7 \\\\ &\Rightarrow 15 =3 r \\\\ &\Rightarrow r =5 \end{array}

and general term of (ax13bx2)11\left(a x-\dfrac{1}{3 b x^2}\right)^{11} is

Tr+1=11Cr(ax)11r(13bx2)r=11Cra11r(13b)rx113r\begin{aligned} T_{r+1} & ={ }^{11} C_r(a x)^{11-r}\left(-\frac{1}{3 b x^2}\right)^r \\\\ & ={ }^{11} C_r a^{11-r}\left(-\frac{1}{3 b}\right)^r x^{11-3 r} \end{aligned}

Now, 113r=711-3 r=-7

18=3rr=6\Rightarrow 18=3 r \Rightarrow r=6

 Since, coefficient of x7 in (ax2+12bx)11= Coefficient of x7 in (ax13bx2)1111C5(a)6(12b)5=11C6(a)5(13b)6a32b5=1729b6729ab=32\begin{aligned} & \text{ Since, coefficient of } x^7 \text{ in }\left(a x^2+\dfrac{1}{2 b x}\right)^{11} \\\\ & =\text{ Coefficient of } x^{-7} \text{ in }\left(a x-\dfrac{1}{3 b x^2}\right)^{11} \\\\ & \Rightarrow{ }^{11} C_5(a)^6\left(\dfrac{1}{2 b}\right)^5={ }^{11} C_6(a)^5\left(-\dfrac{1}{3 b}\right)^6 \\\\ & \Rightarrow \dfrac{a}{32 b^5}=\dfrac{1}{729 b^6} \Rightarrow 729 a b=32\end{aligned}
