∵ 96 = 100-4
∴ (96)3 = (100 – 4)3 = [ 100 + (- 4)]3
By using Binomial theorem
963 = [100 + (- 4)]3
3C0 (100)3 ( – 4 )0 + 3C1 (100)2 (- 4)1
+ 3C2 (100) (- 4)2 + 3C3 (100)0 (- 4)3
= 1 x 1000000 x + 3 x 10000 x (-4)
+ 3 x 100 × 16 + 1 × 1 × (-64)
= 1000000 – 120000 + 4800 – 64
= 1004800 – 120064
= 884736 Hence, (96)3
= 884736
Question 7.
(101)4
Solution :
101 = 100 + 1
(101 )4 = (100 +1)4
By using Binomial theorem
(101)4 = (100 + 1)4
= 4C0 (100)4 (1)0 + 4C1 (100)3 (1)1
+ 4C2 (100)2 (1)2 + 4C3 (100) (1)3
+ 4C4 (100)0 (1)4
= 1 x 100000000 x 1 + 4 × 1000000 × 1 + 6
× 10000 x 1 + 4 x 100 × 1 + 1 x 1 x 1
= 100000000 + 4000000 + 60000 + 400+1

Solution :
99 = (100- 1)
995 = (100- 1)5 = [100+ (- 1)]5

+ 5C2 (100)3 (- 1)2 + 5C3 (100)2 (- 1)3
+ 5C4 (100) (-1)4 + 5C5 (100)0 (-1)5
= 1 x 10000000000 x 1 + 5 x 100000000
× (- 1) + 10 x 1000000 × 1 + 10 × 10000
× (- 1)+ 5 x 100 × 1 + 1 × 1 × (-1)
= 10000000000 – 500000000 +
10000000 – 100000 + 500 – 1
= 10010000500 – 500100001
= 9509900499
Hence, (99)5 = 9509900499
Question 9.

(1.1)6 = (1 +0.1)6
= 6C0(1)6 (0.1)0 + 6C1 (1)5 (0.1)1

+ 6C4 (1)2 (0.1)4 + 6C5 (1)1 (0.1)5 + 6C6 (1)0 (0.1)6
= (1 x 1 x 1) + (6 x 1 x 0-1) + {15 x 1 x (0.1)2}
+ {20 x 1 x (0.1)3} + {15 x 1 x (0.1)4}
+ {6 x 1 x (0.1)5} + {1 x 1 x (0.1)6}
= 1 + 6 x 0.1 + 15 x (0.1)2 + 20 x (0.1)3
+ 15 x (0.1)4+ 6 x (0.1)5 + (0.1)6
= 1 + 0.6 + 15 x 0.01 + 20 x 0.001 + 15 x 0.0001
+ 6 x 0.00001 +0.000001
= 1+0-6 + 0-15 + 0020 + 0-0015 + 0-00006 + 0000001
= 1-771561
Question 10.
Using Binomial theorem find which number is greater (M)100000 or 1000.

= (1+0.1)1000000
= 10000C0 (1)10000 (0.1)0
+ 0000c1 (1)9999 (0.1)1 +……….
= 1 × 1 × 1 + 10000 × 1 × 0.1 +………
= 1 +1000 +… other positive numbers
= 1001+… other positive numbers
Hence(1.1)10000= 1001+… other positive numbers
But 1001>1000
Then (1.1)10000>1000.
(1.1)10000 is greater
Question 11.
Expand (a + b)4 – (a – b)4. Using this find the value of (√3 + √2)4 – (√3 – √2)4.
Solution :
By using binomial theorem,
(a + b)4 = 4C0 a4 b0 + 4C1 a3 b1
+ 4C2 a2 b2+ 4C3 ab3 + 4C4 a0 b4
= 4C0 a4 + 4C1 a3 b1 + 4C2 a2 b2
+ 4C3 ab3 + 4C4 b4 …. (1)
and (a – b)4 = 4C0 a4 (-b)0+ 4C1 a3 (-b)1
+ 4C2 a2 (-b)2 + 4C3 a1 (-b)3 + 4C4 a0 (-b)4
= 4C0 a4 – 4C1 a3 b + 4C2 a2 b2
– 4C3 ab4 + 4C4 b4 …. (2)
From equation (1) and (2) we have,
(a + b)4 – (a – b)4
= [4C0 a4 + 4C1 a3 b +4C2 a2 b2 + 4C3 ab3 + 4C4 b4]
– [4C0 a4 – 4C1 a3 b + 4C2 a2 b2 –4C3 ab3 + 4C4 b4]
= 4C0 a4 + 4C1 a3 b + 4C2 a2 b2 + 4C3 ab3 + 4C4 b4
– 4C0 a4 + 4C1 a3b – 4C2 a2b2 + 4C3 ab3 – 4C4 b4
= 2. 4C1 a3 b + 2. 4C3 ab3
= 2ab [4C1 a2 + 4C3 b2]
= 2ab [4a2 + 4b2] [∴ 4C1 = 4, 4C3 = 4]
= 2ab (a2 + b2)
Hence, (a + b)4 – (a – b)4 = 8ab (a2 + b2)
Now, putting a= √3 and b = √2
(√3 + √2)4 – (√3 – √2)4
= 8 √3 × √2 [(√3)2 + (√2)2]
= 8 √6 (3 + 2)
= 8 √6 × 5 – 40 √6
Hence (√3 + √2 )4 – (√3 – √2 )4 = 40 √6

Question 1.
In the following expansions, find the term as stated :
(i) 5th term of (a + 2x3)17
(ii) 9th term of (x/y−3y/x2)17
(iii) 6th term of (2/√x−x2/2)9
Solution:
(i) 5th term of (a + 2x3)17
We know that (r + 1 )th term in the expansion of (a + b)n
Tr+1 = nCr an-r br
Here a = ‘a’, b = 2x3, n = 17
r + 1 = 5 ⇒ r = 4
Hence, 5th term = T5
⇒ T5 = T4+1
⇒ T5 = 17C4 a17-4(23x3)4
⇒ T5 = 2380 × a13 × 24 × x12
⇒ T5 = 2380 × 16 × a13x12
⇒ T5 = 38080 a13 x12
Hence,
5th term = 38080 a13 x12 or 17C4 a13 × 16x12
Question 2.
Find the coefficient of:
(i) x-7 in the expansion of (ax−1/bx2)8
(ii) x4 in the expansion of
(x4+1/x3)15
(iii) x6 in the expansion (a – bx2)10
Solution:
(i) Coefficient of x-7 in the expansion of
In this term for coefficient of x-7 power of x should be
-7 = 8 – 3r = – 7
Hence, 8 – 3r = – 7
⇒ -3r = – 7 – 8 = – 15
r = 5
Hence, coefficient of x-7 in the expansion
(ii) Coefficient of x4 in the expansion of (x4+1/x3)15
In this term, for coefficient of x4, power of x should be 4
So, 60 – 7r = 4
⇒ -7r = 4 – 60 = – 56
⇒ r = 8
Hence, coefficient of x4 in the expansion = 15C8 = 6435
(iii) Coefficient of x6 in the expansion of (a – b2)10
In this term, for coefficient of x6, power of x should be 6.
So, 2r = 6 ⇒ r = 3
Hence, coefficient of x6 in the expansion
= (-1)3 10C3 x a10-3 b3
= – 1 × 120 × a7 b3
= – 120 a7 b3
Question 3.
In the following expansions find the term independent of x :
Solution:
(i) Term independent of x in the expansion of
for term independent of x
x12-3r = x0
⇒ 12- 3r = 0
⇒ -3r = -12
⇒ r = 4
Hence, term independent of x = (-1)4 12C4
= 1 × 495 = 495
(ii) Term independent of x in the expansion of
For the independent of x
Hence, term independent of x
= (-1)2 10C2 32
= 1 × 45 × 9 = 405
(iii) Term independent of x in the expansion of
(√x/3+√3/2x2)10
Let (r + 1)th term of expansion is constant i.e., independent of x.
(r + 1)th term is constant i.e., power of x should be zero.
∴ 5- r/2 -2r = 0
(iv) Term independent of x in the expansion of
In this expansion for term independent of x, power of.v should be 0
20 – 4r = 0
⇒ – 4r = -20
⇒ r = 5
∴ Term independent of x in the expansion
= (-1)5 10C5 =-252
Question 4.
In the following expansion, find the middle term :
Solution:
(i) Middle term in the expansion of (x/2+2y)6 In the expansion of (x/2+2y)6 middle term will be T(n/2+1) th term where x = 6 which is even number.
(ii) Middle term in the expansion of (3a−a3/6)9
Given expression is(3a−a3/6)9
Where n = 9 which is an odd number
∴ Middle term n+1/2+1th term and n+1/2th term
i.e., Middle term is 5th and 6th term (T6 and T6)
Question 5.
Similarly, if n is odd, then we take (1 + x)2n+1 in place of (1 + x)n, then ‘n’ = 2n + 1 is also odd. Now middle term are

If in the expansion of (ax+1/bx)11
coefficient of x7 and x7 are equal then prove that ab – 1 – 0.
Solution:
(r + 1)th term in the expansion of (ax+1/bx)11
In this term, for coefficient of x7, power of x should be 7.
Hence, 11 – 2r = 7
⇒ 2r = 11-7
⇒ 2r = 4,
⇒ r = 2
Coefficient of x7 in the expansion

Here, (r – 1)th term = nCr – 2ar-2 and its coefficient ,

Similarly, coefficient of rth term and (r + 1)th term are nCr -1 and nCr respectively.
Now, given ratio of coefficient is 1 : 7 : 42
or 6r = n – r + 1
or n – 7r + 1 = 0 …….(2)
On solving (1) and (2), we get
n = 55

nC0 + nC1+ nC2 + … + nCn = 2n
Putting n = 8
8C0 + 8C1 + 8C2 + …. + 8C8 = 28
⇒ 1 +8C1 + 8C2 + 8C3 + … + 8C8 = 28
⇒ 8C1 + 8C2 + …. + 8C8 = 28 – 1 = 255.
(ii) 8C1 + 8C3 + 8C5 + 8C7
We know that
8C1 + 8C3 + 8C5 +… = 2n-1

= nC0 + (2 + 1) nC1 + (4 + 1) nC2 + … (2n + 1) nCn
= nC0 + (2. nC1 + nC1 + (4. nC2 + nC2) + … (2n.nCn + nCn)

(A) 5
(B) 6
(C) 7
(D) 8
Solution :
In the expansion of (1 + x)18 coefficients of (2r + 4)th and (r – 2)th terms are 18C2r + 3 and 18Cr – 3 respectively
Given :
These are equal
Then, 18C2r + 3= 18Cr – 3
⇒ 2r + 3 = r – 3
or 2r+ 3= 18 -(r – 3)
For using the statement if
nCr = nCp or nCn-p
⇒ 2r – r = -3 – 3
or 2r + 3 = 18 – r + 3
⇒ r = -6 or r = 6
r is a natural number, so r = – 6 is not possible, then x = 6.
Hence, option (B) is correct. .
Question 9.

(A) n = 2r
(B) n = 2r – 1
(C) n = 2r + 1
(D) n = r + 1
Solution :
In the expansion of (1 + x)2n, 3rd term = 2nC3r – 1 and r + 2th term = 2nCr + 1
According to question,
2nC3r – 1 = 2nCr + 1
Now, 3r – 1 = r + 1 or 3r – 1 = 2n – r – 1
⇒ 3r – r – I + 1 or 3r + r = 2n – 1 + 1
⇒ 2r = 2 or 4r = 2n
⇒ r =1 or 2r = n
Hence, option (A) is correct.

(1 + 1)n = nC0 + nC1 +nC2 + nC3 + ….
Putting x = – 1
(1 – 1)n = nC0 – nC1 +nC2 – nC3 + ….
Here nC0 + nC1 +nC2 + nC3 + …. = 2n … (i)
“C0 – “Ci + ”C2 – “C3 + … = 0 … (ii)
Adding equation (i) and (ii)
2[nC0 + nC2 + nC4 + …] = 2n

Question 16
In the product of expansion of (1 + 2x)6 (1 – x)7, find the coefficient of x5.
Solution :
Given expression
= (1 + 2x)6 (1 – x)7
∵ (1 + 2x)6 = 6C0 + 6C1 (2x)1 + 6C2 (2x)2
+ 6C3 (2x)3 + 6C4 (2x)4+ 6C5 (2x)5 + 6C6 (2x)6
= 1 + 6 × 2x + 15 × 4x2 + 20 × 8x3
+ 15 × 16x4+ 6 × 32 x 5+ 1 × 64x6
or (1 + 2x)6 = 1 + 12x + 60x2 + 160x3
+ 240x4+ 192x5 + 64x6 … (i)
[∵ 6C0 = 1, 6C1 = 6, 6C2 = 15, 6C3 = 20, 6C4 = 15, 6C5 = 6]
and (1 – x)7 = 7C0 – 7C1x + 7C2x2– 7C3x3 + 7C4x4 – 7C5x6 +,..

[7C0 = 1, 7C1= 7, 7C2 = 21, 7C3 = 35, 7C4= 35, 7C5 = 21]
Now (1 + 2x)6 (1 – x)7
= [1 + 12x + 60x2 + 160x3+ 240x4 + 192x4+ …]
= [1 – 7x + 21x2 – 35x3 + 35x4 – 21x5 + …]
Coefficient of x5 in the above expansion
[- 21 + 12 x 35 – 60 × 35 + 160 × 21+ 240 (-7) + 192 × 1]
= [- 21 + 420 – 2100 + 3360 – 1680 + 192]

T2= T1 + 1= 2nC1
T3 = T2 + 1 = 2nC2
T4 = T3 +1 = 2nC3
According to questions,
⇒ 6 (2n – 1) = 6 + 2(2n – 1) (n – 1)
⇒ 12n – 6 = 6 + 2(2n2 – 3n + 1)
⇒ 4 n2 – 6n + 2 – 12n + 6 + 6 = 0
⇒ 4n2 – 18n +14 = 0
