⇒(1+7–√)7−(1−7–√)5=27–√[5+10(7–√)2+(7–√)4] ⇒27–√[5+70+49]=2487–√
Therefore, (1+7–√)5−(1−7–√)5=2487–√

T a + 1 = (a + b)Ca × (p)a

⇒Ta+1=(a+b)!a!(a+b−a)!×pa ⇒Ta+1=(a+b)!a!b!×pa
Therefore, the coefficient of (p)a =  (a+b)!a!b! . . . . . . . . . . (2)

Now, on comparing the coefficient of p in equation (1) with pb, we will get r = b

Therefore, from equation (1):

Sol.

Since, The general term in the expansion of (a + b)n is given by: Tr + 1 = nCr × (a)n – r× br

Now on substituting a = x and b = 1 in the above equation:

Tr + 1 = nCr × (x)n – r× (1)r

Now, (k + 1)th term in the expansion of (x + 1)n :

T(k) + 1 = nCk × (x)n – k × 1(k )

i.e.  T(k + 1) = nCk × (x)n – k

⇒Tk+1=n!k!(n−k)!×(x)n−k
Therefore the coefficient of T(k + 1)th term = n!k!(n−k)!

Now, (k)th term in the expansion of (x + 1)n :

T(k – 1) + 1 = nCk – 1 × (x)n – (k – 1) × 1(k – 1)

i.e.  Tk = nCk – 1× (x)n – k + 1

⇒Tk=n!(k−1)!(n−k+1)!×(x)n−k+1
Therefore the coefficient of  T(k)th term = n!(k−1)!(n−k+1)!

And, (k – 1)th term in the expansion of (x + 1)n :

T(k – 2 )+ 1 = nCk – 2 × (x)n – (k – 2) × 1(k – 2)

i.e.  Tk – 1 = nCk – 2 × (x)n – k + 2

⇒Tk−1=n!(k−2)!(n−k+2)!×(x)n−k+2
Therefore the coefficient of  T(k – 1)th term = n!(k−2)!(n−k+2)!

Now, according to the given conditions: Coefficients of T(k + 1), Tk and Tk – 1 are in the ratio of 5 : 3 : 1

Therefore, Tk−1Tk=13

⇒[n!(k−2)!(n−k+2)!]÷[n!(k−1)!(n−k+1)!]=13 ⇒(k−1)!(n−k+1)!(k−2)!(n−k+2)!=13 ⇒(k−1)(k−2)!(n−k+1)!(k−2)!(n−k+2)(n−k+1)!=13 ⇒k−1n−k+2=13 ⇒3k−3=n−k+2
(or)              n – 4k + 5 = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .  (1)

And,        Tk+1Tk=53

⇒[n!k!(n−k)!]÷[n!(k−1)!(n−k+1)!]=53 ⇒(k−1)!(n−k+1)!k!(n−k)!=53 ⇒(k−1)![(n−k+1)(n−k)!][k(k−1)!](n−k)!=53 ⇒n−k+1k=53 ⇒3n−3k+3=5k
(or) 3n – 8k + 3 = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (2)

On multiplying equation (1) by 3 and subtracting it to equation (2) we will get:

(3n – 8k + 3) – 3(n – 4k + 5) = 0

⇒ 3n – 8k + 3 – 3n + 12k – 15 = 0
⇒ 4k = 12
Therefore, k = 3

Now on substituting the value of k in equation (2) we will get:

3n – 8(3) + 3 = 0

Therefore, n = 7





Q.11: Prove that the coefficient of ap in the expansion of (1 + 3a)2p – 1 is half the coefficient of ap in the expansion of (1 + 3a)2p



Sol.

Since, The general term in the expansion of (x + y)n is given by: Tr + 1 = nCr × (x)n – r× (y)r

For (1 + 3a)2p:

On putting n = 2p, x =1 and y = 3a, we will get:

Tr + 1 = (2p)Cr × (1)(3p) – r × (3a)r

⇒ Tr + 1 = (2p)Cr× (3a)r . . . . . . . . . . . . (1)

Now, on comparing the coefficient of a in equation (1) with ap, we will get r = p

Therefore, from equation (1):

T p + 1 = (2p)Cp × (3a)p

⇒Tp+1=(2p)!p!(2p−p)!×(3a)p ⇒Tp+1=(2p)!p!p!×3p×(a)p
Therefore, the coefficient of ap =(2p)!p!p!×3p . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (2)

Now, for (1 + 3a)2p – 1 :

On substituting n = (2p – 1), x =1 and y = 3a, we will get:

Tr + 1 = (2p – 1)Cr × (1)(2p – 1) – r × (3a)r

⇒ Tr + 1 = (2p – 1)Cr× (3a)r . . . . . . . . . . . . (1)

Now, on comparing the coefficient of ‘a’ in equation (1) with ‘ap ’, we will get r = p

Therefore, from equation (1):

T p + 1 = (2p – 1)Cp × (3a)p

⇒Tp+1=(2p−1)!p!(2p−1−p)!×(3a)p ⇒Tp+1=(2p−1)!p!(p−1)!×(3)p×(a)p ⇒Tp+1=(2p)!2pp!×p!p×(3)p.(a)p=(2p)!2(p!)2×3p.ap
Therefore, the coefficient of ap = =(2p)!2(p!)2×3p . . . . . . . . . . (3)

Now, on comparing equation (2) and equation (3):

⇒(2p)!p!p!×3p=(2p)!p!p!×3p
⇒  (2p)Cp× 3p  =  12 (2p – 1)Cp× 3p

Therefore, the coefficient of ap in the expansion of (1 + 3a)2p – 1 is half the coefficient of ap in the expansion of (1 + 3a)2p

Sol.

Since, The general term in the expansion of (a + b)n is given by: Tr + 1 = nCr × (a)n – r× (b)r

Now, on substituting n = m, a =1 and b = 2x we will get:

Tr + 1 = mCr × (1)m – r × (2x)r

⇒ Tr + 1 = mCr× (2)r× (x)r . . . . . . . . . . . . (1)

Now, on comparing the coefficient of x in equation (1) with x2, we will get r = 2

Therefore, from equation (1):

T 2 + 1 = mC2 × (2)2 × (x)2

Since, the coefficient of x2 = 140   [GIVEN]

Therefore,    140 = mC2 × (2)2

⇒84=[m!2!(m−2)!]×4 ⇒21=m×(m−1)(m−2)![2×1]×(m−2)! ⇒42=m2−m
Therefore, m2 – m – 42 = 0

Now, by splitting of middle term method, the roots of this quadratic equation are:

⇒m2 – (7 – 6)m – 42 = 0
⇒m2 – 7m + 6m – 42 = 0
⇒ m(m – 7) +6(m – 7) = 0
i.e.    (m + 6) (m – 7) = 0

Therefore, m = 7 or m = -6

Hence, for the coefficient of x2 in the expansion of (1+ 2x)k to be 140, the value of ‘m’ should be 7.





Q.13: In the expansion of (2x+3y)9, Find the middle terms.



Sol.

Here, n = 9

When n is odd then the middle terms in the expansion of (a + b)n are given by:

middle terms = (n+12)thtermand(n+12+1)thterm

Therefore, the middle terms in the expansion of (2x+3y)9 are:

⇒(9+12)thtermand(9+12+1)thterm

⇒ 5th term and 6th term

Now, 5th and 6th terms in the expansion of (2x+3y)9 are:

T5 = T4 + 1 = 9C4 × (2x)9 – 4 × (3y)4

⇒   T5 = 9C4 × (2x)5 × (3y)4
⇒T5=9!4!5!×(2x)5×(3y)4 ⇒T5=9×8×7×6×5!4×3×2×1×5!×32x5×81y4 ⇒T5=126×2592x5y4=414720x5y4
Therefore, 5th term = 414720 x5 y4

Now, T6 = T5 + 1 = 9C5 × (2x)9 – 5 × (3y)5

\Rightarrow T6 = 9C5 × (2x)4 × (3y)5
\Rightarrow T_{6}=\frac{9!}{5!\times 4!}\times (2x)^{4}\times (3y)^{5} \Rightarrow T_{6}=\frac{9\times 8\times 7\times 6\times 5!}{5!\times (4\times 3\times 2\times 1)}\times 16x^{4}\times 243y^{5}\\\\ \Rightarrow T_{6} = 126\times 3888\;x^{4}y^{5}\boldsymbol{=489888\;x^{4}y^{5}}\\
Therefore, 6th term = 489888 x4 y5

Hence, 5th and 6th terms are the middle terms in the expansion of (2x+3y)9

And also, 5th term = 414720 x5 y4 and 6th term = 489888 x4 y5





Q.14: Find the Coefficient of x6 in expansion of (x + 3)11



Sol.

Since, The general term in the expansion of (a + b)n  is given by:  Tr + 1 = nCr × (a)n – r× br

Therefore, on substituting n = 11, a = x and b = 3 in the above expression we will get:

Tr + 1 = 11Cr × (x)11 – r× 3r . . . . . . . (1)

Now, on comparing the coefficient of x in equation (1) with x7, we will get:

i.e.         (x)11 – r = x6

(or)         11 – r = 6

Therefore, r = 5

Now, on substituting r in equation (1) we will get:

T5 + 1 = 11C5 × (x)11 – 5 × 35

\Rightarrow T_{6}=\frac{11!}{5!\times 6!}\times x^{6}\times 3^{5} \Rightarrow T_{6}=\frac{11\times 10\times 9\times 8\times 7\times 6!}{5\times 4\times 3\times 2\times 1\times 6!}\times 243\;x^{6}\\\\ \Rightarrow T_{6} = 462\times 243\;x^{6}\boldsymbol{=112266\;x^{6}}
Therefore, the Coefficient of x6 in the expansion of (x + 3)11 = 112266





Q.15: Write the general term in the expansion of (x2y3 – x3 y2)7



Sol.

The general term in the expansion of (a + b)n is given by: Tr + 1 = nCr × (a)n – r× br

Now, on substituting n = 7, a = x2y3 and b = x3 y2 we will get:

Tr+1 = 7Cr × (x2y3)7 – r× (x3y2)r

\Rightarrow Tr + 1 = 7Cr × (x2)7 – r × (y3)7 – r × (x)3 r × (y)2 r
\Rightarrow Tr + 1 = 7Cr × (x)14 – 2 r × (x)3 r× (y)2 r× (y)21 – 3r
\Rightarrow Tr + 1 = 7Cr × (x)14 – 2 r + 3r  ×  (y)21 – 3r + 2 r
i.e.  Tr + 1 = 7Cr × (x)14 + r  ×  (y)21 – r

Therefore, the general term in the expansion of (x2y3 – x3 y2)7:

Tr + 1 = 7Cr × (x)14 + r× (y)21 – r





Miscellaneous Exercise:


Q.1: If 1st term, 2nd term and 3rd term in the expansion of (a + b)n are 729, 7290 and 30375 respectively then find the value of ‘a’, ‘b’ and ‘c’.



Sol.

The general term in the expansion of (a + b)n is given by: Tr + 1 = nCr × (a)n – r× br

Now, according to the given conditions:

T(0 + 1) = nC0 × (a)n – 0 × b0

T1 = an

i.e.   an = 729 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (1)

Also, T(1 + 1) = nC1 × (a)n – 1 × b1

T2 = nC1 × (a)n – 1 × b

i.e.   7290 = nC1 × (a)n – 1 × b

\\\Rightarrow 7290=\frac{n!}{1!\;\;(n-1)!}\times a^{n}\times a^{-1}\times b\\\\ \\\\\Rightarrow 7290=\frac{n(n-1)!}{(n-1)!}\times a^{n}\times \frac{b}{a}\;\;\;
Therefore, 7290 = n × an× \frac{b}{a} . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (2)

And, T(2 + 1) = nC2 × (a)n – 2 × b2

T3 = nC2 × (a)n – 2 × b2

i.e.   30375 = nC2 × (a)n – 2 × b2

\\\Rightarrow 30375=\frac{n!}{2!\;\;(n-2)!}\times a^{n}\times a^{-2}\times b^{2}\\ \\\Rightarrow 30375=\frac{n\;(n-1)\;(n-2)!}{(2\times 1)\;\;(n-2)!}\times a^{n}\times \left ( \frac{b}{a} \right )^{2}\\
Therefore, 60750 = n (n – 1) × an × \left ( \frac{b}{a} \right )^{2}  . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (3)

Now, on substituting equation (1) in equation (2) we will get:

\\\Rightarrow 7290 = n\times (729)\times \frac{b}{a}\\ \\\Rightarrow \frac{10a}{b}=n\\
Therefore, n = \frac{10a}{b} . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (4)

Now, on dividing equation (2) and equation (3) we will get:

\\\Rightarrow \frac{n \times a^{n} \times \frac{b}{a}}{n\times (n-1)\times a^{n}\times \left ( \frac{b}{a} \right )^{2} }=\frac{7290}{60750}\\ \\\Rightarrow \frac{3}{25}=\frac{1}{(n-1)\times \frac{b}{a}}\\ \\\Rightarrow 3n-3=\frac{25a}{b}\\
Now, from equation (4):

\frac{a}{b} = \frac{n}{10} \Rightarrow 3n-3=25\times \left ( \frac{n}{10} \right ) \Rightarrow 30n-30=25n
i.e.   30n – 30 = 25n

Therefore, n = 6

Now, on substituting the value of ‘n’ in equation (1) we will get:

\Rightarrow a6 = 729
i.e.  a6 = 36

Therefore, a = 3

Now, from equation (4):

\\\Rightarrow 6 = \frac{30}{b}\\
Therefore, b = 5





Q.2: If the coefficients of z2 and z3 are equal in the expansion of (3 + bz)9. Find the value of ‘b’



Sol.

Since, The general term in the expansion of (x + y)n is given by: Tr + 1 = nCr × (x)n –r× yr

Therefore, on substituting n = 9, x = 3 and y = bz in the above expression we will get:

Tr + 1 = 9Cr × (3)9 – r× (bz)r

Tr + 1 = 9Cr × (3)9 – r× br× zr . . . . . (1)

Now, on comparing the coefficient of z in equation (1) with z2, we will get: r = 2

On substituting the value of r in equation (1) we will get:

T(2 + 1) = 9C2 × (3)9 – 2 × b2 × z2

\\\Rightarrow T_{3}=\frac{9!}{2!\;7!}\times 3^{7}\times b^{2}\times z^{2}\\ \\\Rightarrow T_{3}=\frac{9\times 8\times 7!}{2\times 1\times 7!}\times 3^{7}\times b^{2}\times z^{2}\\
\\ \Rightarrow T_{3} = 36\times 3^{7}\times b^{2}\times z^{2} . . . . . . . . . . . . (2)

Now, on comparing the coefficient of z in equation (1) with z3, we will get: r = 3

On substituting the value of ‘r’ in equation (1) we will get:

T(3 + 1) = 9C3 × (3)9 – 3 × b3 × z3

\\\Rightarrow T_{4}=\frac{9!}{3!\;6!}\times 3^{6}\times b^{3}\times z^{3}\\ \\\Rightarrow T_{4}=\frac{9\times 8\times 7\times 6!}{3\times 2\times 1\times 6!}\times 3^{6}\times b^{3}\times z^{3}\\
\\\Rightarrow T_{4} = 84\times 3^{6}\times b^{3}\times z^{3} . . . . . . . . . (3)

Now, according to the given conditions:

Coefficient of z2 = Coefficient of z3

Therefore from equation (2) and equation (3):

\\\Rightarrow 36\times 3^{7}\times b^{2}=84\times 3^{6}\times b^{3}\\ \\\Rightarrow b = \frac{36\times 3^{7}}{84\times 3^{6}}\\
Therefore, the value of b = \frac{9}{7}





Q.3: Find the coefficient of x6 in the product of (1 + 3x)7 (1 – 2x)6 by using binomial theorem.



Sol.

By using Binomial Theorem:

Since, (1 + x)n = [ nC0 ]  +  [ nC1 × (x) ]  +  [ nC2 × (x)2 ]  +  [ nC3 × (x3) ] + . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . + [ nCn × (x)n ]

Therefore, (1 + 3x)7 = [ 7C0 ]  +  [ 7C1 × (3x)  ]  +  [ 7C2 × (3x)2  ]  +  [ 7C3 × (3x)3  ]  + [ 7C4 × (3x)4 ]  +  [ 7C5 × (3x5) ]  +  [ 7C6 × (3x)6 ]  +  [ 7C7 × (3x)7 ] \\\Rightarrow 1 + [ 7 × (3x) ] + [ 21 × (9x2) ] + [ 35 × (27x3) ] + [ 35 × (81x4) ] + [ 21 × (243x5) ] + [ 7 × 729x6 ] + [ 1 × 2187x7 ] \\\Rightarrow 1 + 21x + 189x2 + 945x3 + 2835x4 + 5103x5 + 5103x6 + 2187x7

Therefore, (1 + 3x)7 = 1 + 21x + 189x2 + 945x3 + 2835x4 + 5103x5 + 5103x6 + 2187x7

Now, (1 – 2x)6:

By using Binomial Theorem:

(1 – 2x)6 = [ 6C0 ]  –  [ 6C1 × (2x)  ]  +  [ 6C2 × (2x)2  ]  –  [ 6C3 × (2x)3  ]  + [ 6C4 × (2x)4 ]  –  [ 6C5 × (2x5) ]  +  [ 6C6 × (2x)6 ] \\\Rightarrow 1 – [ 6 × (2x) ] + [ 15 × (4x2) ] – [ 20 × (8x3) ] + [ 15 × (16x4) ] – [ 6 × (32x5) ] + [ 1 × 64x6 ] \\\Rightarrow 1 – 12x + 60x2 – 160x3 + 240x4 – 192x5 + 64x6

Therefore, (1 – 2x)6 = 1 – 12x + 60x2 – 160x3 + 240x4 – 192x5 + 64x6

Now, (1 + 3x)7 (1 – 2x)6:

=(1 + 21x + 189x2 + 945x3 + 2835x4 + 5103x5 + 5103x6 + 2187x7) × (1 – 12x + 60x2 – 160x3 + 240x4 – 192x5 + 64x6)

Now, it not required to multiply the above equation, only terms with x5 are required and that can be identified by analyzing the above equation.

\\\Rightarrow [{1 × (- 192x5)} + {(21x) × (240x4)} + {(189x2) × (- 160x3)} + {(945x3) × (60x2)} + {(2835x4) × (- 12x)} + {(5103x5) × (1)}] \\\Rightarrow [ -192x5 + 5040x5 – 30240x5+ 56700x5 – 34020x5 + 5103x5 ]
\\\Rightarrow 2391 x5

Therefore, the coefficient of x5 = 2391





Q.4: Show that (a – b) is a factor of (an – bn), where ‘n’ is a positive integer and ‘a’ and ‘b’ are distinct integers.



Sol.

Now, for (a – b) to be factor of (an – bn), (an – bn) = p(a – b)    [where p is any natural number]

We can write an= (a – b + b)n = [(a – b) + b]n

Now, by Binomial Theorem:

Since, [x + y]n = [ nC0 × (xn) ]  +  [ nC1 × (xn – 1) × y ]  +  [ nC2 ×  (xn – 2) ×  y2 ]  +  [ nC3 × (xn – 3) × y3 ] + . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . + [ nCn × yn ]

Therefore, for x = (a – b) and y = b the equation becomes:

[(a – b) + b]n = [ nC0 × (a – b)n ]  +  [ nC1 × (a – b)n – 1 × b ]  +  [ nC2 ×  (a – b)n – 2 ×  b2 ]  +  [ nC3 × (a – b)n – 3 × b3 ] + . . . . . . . . . . . . . + [ nCn – 1 ×  (a – b) ×  bn – 1 ]   + [ nCn × bn ] \\\Rightarrow [a]n = [(a – b)n]  +  [ nC1 × (a – b)n – 1 × b ]  +  [ nC2 ×  (a – b)n – 2 ×  b2 ]  +  [ nC3 × (a – b)n – 3 × b3 ] + . . . . . . . . . . . . . + [ nCn – 1 ×  (a – b) ×  bn – 1 ]   +  [ bn ]

Now, an – bn = [(a – b)n] + [ nC1 × (a – b)n – 1 × b ] + [ nC2 ×  (a – b)n – 2 ×  b2 ] + [ nC3 × (a – b)n – 3 × b3 ] + . . . . . . . . . . . . . + [ nCn – 1 ×  (a – b) ×  bn – 1 ] + [ bn ] – [ bn ] \\\Rightarrow   an – bn = (a – b) × [ (a – b)n – 1 + nC1 (a – b)n – 2 b + nC2 (a – b)n – 3 b2 + nC3 (a – b)n – 4 b3 + . . . . . . . . . . . . . + nCn – 1 bn – 1 ]

\\\Rightarrow (an – bn) = (a – b) × p

Where, p = [ (a – b)n – 1 + nC1 (a – b)n – 2 b + nC2 (a – b)n – 3 b2 + nC3 (a – b)n – 4 b3 + . . . . . . . . . . . . . + nCn – 1 bn – 1 ] is any natural number.

Therefore, (a – b) is a factor of (an – bn), where ‘n’ is a positive integer.





Q.5:  Evaluate \left(\sqrt{7}+\sqrt{5} \right )^{6}-\left ( \sqrt{7}-\sqrt{5}\right)^{6}



Sol.

Find (a + b)6 – (a – b)6

Now, by using Binomial Theorem:

Since, [x + y]n = [ nC0 × (xn) ]  +  [ nC1 × (xn – 1) × y ]  +  [ nC2 ×  (xn – 2) ×  y2 ]  +  [ nC3 × (xn – 3) × y3 ] + . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . + [ nCn × yn ]

And, [x – y]n = [ nC0 × (xn) ]  –  [ nC1 × (xn – 1) ×  y ]  +  [ nC2 ×  (xn – 2) ×  y2 ]  –  [ nC3 × (xn – 3) × y3 ] + . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . +  (-1)n [ nCn × yn ]

Therefore, [a + b]6= [ 6C0 × (a6) ]  +  [ 6C1 × (a5) × b ]  +  [ 6C2 ×  (a4) ×  b2 ]  +  [ 6C3 × (a3) × b3 ] + [ 6C4 × (a2) × b4 ]  + [ 6C5 × a × b5 ]  +  [6C6 × b6]

And, [a – b]6 = [ 6C0 × (a6) ]  –  [ 6C1 × (a5) × b ]  +  [ 6C2 ×  (a4) ×  b2 ]  –  [ 6C3 × (a3) × b3 ] + [ 6C4 × (a2) × b4 ]  – [ 6C5 × a × b5 ]  +  [6C6 × b6]

Therefore, (a + b)6 – (a – b)6 = [ 6C0 a6  +  6C1 a5b  +  6C2 a4b2  +  6C3 a3b3  +  6C4 a2b4  +  6C5 ab5  +  6C6 b6] – [ 6C0 a6  – 6C1 a5b  +  6C2 a4b2  –  6C3 a3b3  +  6C4 a2b4  –  6C5 ab5  +  6C6 b6 ] \\\Rightarrow  [ 6C0 a6  +  6C1 a5b  +  6C2 a4b2  +  6C3 a3b3  +  6C4 a2b4  +  6C5 ab5  +  6C6 b6  –  6C0 a6  + 6C1 a5b  –  6C2 a4b2  +  6C3 a3b3  –  6C4 a2b4  +  6C5 ab5  –  6C6 b6 ] \\\Rightarrow  2[ 6C1 a5b + 6C3 a3b3 + 6C5 ab5 ] = 2[ 6a5b + 20a3b3 + 6ab5 ]

Therefore, (a + b)6 – (a – b)6 = 4ab[ 3a4 + 10a2 b2 + 3b4 ] . . . . . . (1)

Now, on substituting a = \sqrt{7} and b = \sqrt{5} in equation (1) we will get:

\\\left(\sqrt{7}+\sqrt{5} \right )^{6}-\left ( \sqrt{7}-\sqrt{5}\right)^{6}:\\

\\=4( \sqrt{7}\times \sqrt{5} )\left [ (3 \sqrt{7} )^{4} +10\times (\sqrt{7} )^{2}\times ( \sqrt{5})^{2}+3(\sqrt{5})^{4} \right ]\\

\\\Rightarrow 4\sqrt{35}\;[\;147+350+75\;]\\
Therefore, \left(\sqrt{7}+\sqrt{5} \right )^{6}-\left ( \sqrt{7}-\sqrt{5}\right)^{6}= 2288\sqrt{35}





Q.6: Find the expansion of \left ( a^{3} +\sqrt{a^{3}-2}\right )^{4}+ \left ( a^{3} -\sqrt{a^{3}-2}\right )^{4}



Sol.

The above given expression can be assumed as: (x + y)4 + (x – y)4

Now, by using Binomial Theorem:

Since, [x + y]n = [ nC0 × (xn) ]  +  [ nC1 × (xn – 1) × y ]  +  [ nC2 ×  (xn – 2) ×  y2 ]  +  [ nC3 × (xn – 3) × y3 ] + . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . + [ nCn × yn ]

And, [x – y]n = [ nC0 × (xn) ]  –  [ nC1 × (xn – 1) ×  y ]  +  [ nC2 ×  (xn – 2) ×  y2 ]  –  [ nC3 × (xn – 3) × y3 ] + . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . +  (-1)n [ nCn × yn ]

Therefore, [x + y]4 = [4C0 × (x4)]  +  [4C1 × (x3) × (y)]  +  [4C2 ×  (x2) ×  (y)2]  +  [4C3 × (x1) × (y)3] + [4C4 × (x0) × (y)4]

And, [x – y]4 = [4C0 × (x4) ]  –  [4C1 × (x3) × (y) ]  +  [4C2 ×  (x2) × (y)2 ]  –  [4C3 × (x1) × (y)3 ] + [4C4 × (x0) × (y)4 ]

Therefore, (x + y)4 + (x – y)4 = [ 4C0 x4 + 4C1 x3 y + 4C2 x2 y2 + 4C3 x y3 + 4C4 y4 ]  +  [ 4C0 x4 – 4C1 x3 y + 4C2 x2 y2 – 4C3 x y3 + 4C4 y4 ] \\\Rightarrow [ 4C0 x4 + 4C1 x3y + 4C2 x2y2 + 4C3 xy3 + 4C4 y4 + 4C0 x4 – 4C1 x3y + 4C2 x2y2 – 4C3 xy3 + 4C4 y4 ] \\\Rightarrow  2[ 4C0 x4 + 4C2 x2 y2 + 4C4 y4] = 2[ x4 + 6x2 y2 + y4 ]

Therefore, (x + y)4 + (x – y)4 = 2[ x4 + y4 + 6 x2 y2 ] . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (1)

Now, on substituting x = a3 and y = \sqrt{a^{3}-2} in equation (1) we will get:

\\\Rightarrow \left ( a^{3} +\sqrt{a^{3}-2}\right )^{4}+ \left ( a^{3} -\sqrt{a^{3}-2}\right )^{4}:\\

\\=2\times \left [ (a^{3})^{4}+ (\sqrt{a^{3}-2})^{4}+[6\times (a^{3})^{2}\times (\sqrt{a^{3}-2})^{2}] \right ]\\
 \\=2\left [ a^{12}+ (a^{3}-2)^{2}+[6\times a^{6}\times (a^{3}-2)] \right ]\\ \\=2\left [\; a^{12}+ a^{6}+4-4a^{3}+6a^{9}-12a^{6} \;\right ]\\

\\\Rightarrow 2a^{12}+12a^{9}-22a^{6}-8a^{3}+8

Therefore, the expansion of \left ( a^{3} +\sqrt{a^{3}-2}\right )^{4}+ \left ( a^{3} -\sqrt{a^{3}-2}\right )^{4}:

= 2a^{12}+12a^{9}-22a^{6}-8a^{3}+8





Q.7: Find the approximate value of (0.98)5 using the first four terms of its expansion.



Sol.

(0.98)5 = (1 – 0.02)5

Now, by using Binomial Theorem:

Since, [ x – y ]n = [ nC0 × (x)n ]  –  [ nC1 × (x)n – 1 × y ]  +  [ nC2 ×  (x)n – 2 ×  y2 ]  –  [ nC3 × (x)n – 3 × y3 ] + . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (-1)n [ nCn × yn ]

Therefore, (1 – 0.02)5 = [ 5C0 × (1)5 ]  –  [ 5C1 × (1)4 × (0.02) ]  +  [ 5C2 ×  (1)3 ×  (0.02)2 ]  –  [ 5C3 × (1)2 × (0.02)3 ]

= 1 – [5 × 1 × 0.02] + [5 × 1 × 0.0004] – [5 × 1 × 0.000008]

= 1 – 0.10 + 0.0020 + 0.000040

= 0.90204

Therefore, (0.98)5 = 0.90204





Q.8: The coefficient of the 5th term from end and the 5th term from the beginning in the expansion of  \left ( 2^{\frac{1}{4}}+\frac{1}{3^{\frac{1}{4}}} \right )^{n} are in the ratio 1:\sqrt{6}.Find the value of ‘n’.



Sol.

Since, The general term in the expansion of (a + b)n  is given by: Tk + 1 = nCk × (a)n – k× bk

Now on substituting a = \left ( 2\right )^{{\frac{1}{4}}} and b = \frac{1}{(3)^{\frac{1}{4}}} in the above equation:

Tk + 1 = nCk ×\left ( \sqrt[4]{2} \right )^{n-k} \times \left ( \frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{3}}\right )^{k}\\

Now, 5th term from beginning in the expansion of \left ( 2^{\frac{1}{4}}+\frac{1}{3^{\frac{1}{4}}} \right )^{n}:

T(4 + 1) = nC4 × \left ( \sqrt[4]{2} \right )^{n-4} \times \left ( \frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{3}} \right )^{4}\\

i.e.  T5 = nC4 × \left ( 2 \right )^{\frac{n}{4}-1} \times \left ( \frac{1}{3} \right )\\

\\\Rightarrow T_{5} = \frac{n!}{4!\;(n-4)!}\times (2)^{\frac{n}{4}}\times (2)^{-1}\times \frac{1}{3}\\
Therefore the coefficient of 5th term from beginning \boldsymbol{= \frac{n!}{4!\;(n-4)!}\times (2)^{\frac{n}{4}}\times \frac{1}{6}}\\

Now, 5th term from end in the expansion of \left ( 2^{\frac{1}{4}}+\frac{1}{3^{\frac{1}{4}}} \right )^{n}:

1st term, 2nd term, 3rd term . . . . . . . . . . . (n – 5)th term, (n – 4)th term, (n – 3)th term, (n – 2)th term, (n – 1)th term, nth term.

Therefore, 5th term from end will be (n – 4)th term from beginning.

i.e.  T(n – 4) + 1 = nCn – 4 × \left ( \sqrt[4]{2} \right )^{n-(n-4)} \times \left ( \frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{3}} \right )^{n-4}\\

i.e.  T(n – 3) = nCn – 4× \left ( \sqrt[4]{2} \right )^{4} \times \left ( \frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{3}} \right )^{n}\times \left ( \frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{3}} \right )^{-4}\\

\\\Rightarrow T_{(n-3)} = \frac{n!}{(n-4)!\;[(n-(n-4)]!}\times 2 \times \left ( \frac{1}{3} \right )^{\frac{n}{4}}\times 3\\
Therefore the coefficient of 5th term from end [ T(n – 4)th term ] = \frac{n!}{(n-4)!\;[(4)]!} \times \left ( \frac{1}{3} \right )^{\frac{n}{4}}\times 6\\

Now, according to the given conditions:

The ratio of coefficient of 5th term from end and the coefficient of 5th term from beginning is 1:\sqrt{6}\\

Therefore, \\ \frac{T_{n-3}}{T_{5}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}\\

\\\Rightarrow \left ( \frac{n!}{(n-4)!\;[(4)]!} \times \left ( \frac{1}{3} \right )^{\frac{n}{4}}\times 6 \right )\div\left ( \frac{n!}{4!\;(n-4)!}\times (2)^{\frac{n}{4}}\times \frac{1}{6} \right )=\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}\\ \\\Rightarrow \frac{4!\;(n-4)!}{(n-4)!\;4!}\times \frac{1}{(2)^{\frac{n}{4}}}\times \frac{1}{(3)^{\frac{n}{4}}}\times 6\times 6=\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}\\ \\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{(6)^{\frac{n}{4}}}\times 36=\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}\\ \\\Rightarrow 36\sqrt{6}=(6)^{\frac{n}{4}}\\ \\\Rightarrow (6)^{2}\times (6)^{\frac{1}{2}}=6^{\frac{n}{4}}\\ \\\Rightarrow (6)^{\frac{5}{2}}=(6)^{\frac{n}{4}\\}
On comparing RHS and LHS:

\\\Rightarrow \frac{5}{2}=\frac{n}{4}\\
\\\Rightarrow n = 10

Therefore, the value of n = 10.

And, [x – y]n = [ nC0 × (xn) ]  –  [ nC1 × (xn – 1) ×  y ]  +  [ nC2 ×  (xn – 2) ×  y2 ]  –  [ nC3 × (xn – 3) × y3 ] + . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . +  (-1)n [ nCn × yn ]

Therefore, [a + b]5 = [ 5C0 × (a5) ] + [ 5C1 × (a4) × b ] + [ 5C2 ×  (a3) ×  b2 ] + [ 5C3 × (a2) × b3 ] + [ 5C4 × (a1) × b4 ] + [ 5C5 × b5 ]

And, [a – b]5 = [ 5C0 × (a5) ] – [ 5C1 × (a4) × b ] + [ 5C2 ×  (a3) ×  b2 ] – [ 5C3 × (a2) × b3 ] + [ 5C4 × (a) × b4 ] – [ 5C5 × b5 ]

Therefore, (a + b)5 – (a – b)5 = [5C0 a5 + 5C1 a4b + 5C2 a3b2 + 5C3 a2b3 + 5C4 ab4 + 5C5 b5] – [5C0 a5 – 5C1 a4 b + 5C2 a3b2 – 5C3 a2b3 + 5C4 ab4 – 5C5 ab5] \\\Rightarrow  [5C0 a5 + 5C1 a4b + 5C2 a3b2 + 5C3 a2b3 + 5C4 ab4 + 5C5 b5 – 5C0 a5 + 5C1 a4 b – 5C2 a3b2 + 5C3 a2b3 – 5C4 ab4 + 5C5 ab5] \\\Rightarrow  2[ 5C1 a4b + 5C3 a2b3 + 5C5 b5 ] = 2[ 5a4b + 10a2b3 + b5 ]

Therefore, (a + b)5 – (a – b)5 = 2b[ 5a4 + 10a2 b2 + b4 ] . . . . . . (1)

Now, on substituting a = \sqrt{3} and b = \sqrt{7} in equation (1) we will get:

\\\left(\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{7} \right )^{5}-\left ( \sqrt{3}-\sqrt{7}\right)^{5}:\\

\\=2(\sqrt{7})\times \left [ 5( \sqrt{3})^{4} +10\times ( \sqrt{3})^{2}\times (\sqrt{7})^{2}+(\sqrt{7})^{4} \right ]\\

\\\Rightarrow 2\sqrt{7}\left [\;45+210+49\; \right ]\\
Therefore, \left(\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{7} \right )^{5}-\left ( \sqrt{3}-\sqrt{7}\right)^{5}= 608\sqrt{7}





Q.15: Find the expansion of \left ( a^{2} +\sqrt{a^{2}-5}\right )^{4}+ \left ( a^{2} -\sqrt{a^{2}-5}\right )^{4}



Sol.

The above given expression can be assumed as: (x + y)4 + (x – y)4

Now, by using Binomial Theorem:

Since, [x + y]n = [ nC0 × (xn) ]  +  [ nC1 × (xn – 1) × y ]  +  [ nC2 ×  (xn – 2) ×  y2 ]  +  [ nC3 × (xn – 3) × y3 ] + . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . + [ nCn × yn ]

And, [x – y]n = [ nC0 × (xn) ]  –  [ nC1 × (xn – 1) ×  y ]  +  [ nC2 ×  (xn – 2) ×  y2 ]  –  [ nC3 × (xn – 3) × y3 ] + . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . +  (-1)n [ nCn × yn ]

Therefore, [x + y]4 = [4C0 × (x4)]  +  [4C1 × (x3) × (y)]  +  [4C2 ×  (x2) ×  (y)2]  +  [4C3 × (x1) × (y)3] + [4C4 × (x0) × (y)4]

And, [x – y]4 = [4C0 × (x4) ]  –  [4C1 × (x3) × (y) ]  +  [4C2 ×  (x2) × (y)2 ]  –  [4C3 × (x1) × (y)3 ] + [4C4 × (x0) × (y)4 ]

Therefore, (x + y)4 + (x – y)4 = [ 4C0 x4 + 4C1 x3 y + 4C2 x2 y2 + 4C3 x y3 + 4C4 y4 ]  +  [ 4C0 x4 – 4C1 x3 y + 4C2 x2 y2 – 4C3 x y3 + 4C4 y4 ] \\\Rightarrow [ 4C0 x4 + 4C1 x3y + 4C2 x2y2 + 4C3 xy3 + 4C4 y4 + 4C0 x4 – 4C1 x3y + 4C2 x2y2 – 4C3 xy3 + 4C4 y4 ] \\\Rightarrow  2[ 4C0 x4 + 4C2 x2 y2 + 4C4 y4] = 2[ x4 + 6x2 y2 + y4 ]

Therefore, (x + y)4 + (x – y)4 = 2[ x4 + y4 + 6 x2 y2 ] . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (1)

Now, on substituting x = a2 and y = \sqrt{a^{2}-5} in equation (1) we will get:

\\\Rightarrow \left ( a^{2} +\sqrt{a^{2}-5}\right )^{4}+ \left ( a^{2} -\sqrt{a^{2}-5}\right )^{4}:\\

\\=2\times \left [ (a^{2})^{4}+ \left ( \sqrt{a^{2}-5} \right )^{4}+6\times (a^{2})^{2}\times \left ( \sqrt{a^{2}-5} \right )^{2} \right ]\\ \\\Rightarrow 2\left [ a^{8}+ (a^{2}-5)^{2}+[6a^{4}\times (a^{2}-5)] \right ]\\ \\\Rightarrow 2 \left [ a^{8}+a^{4}+ 25 + 10a^{2}+6a^{6}-30a^{4} \right ]\\
Therefore, the expansion of \left [ a^{2} +\sqrt{a^{2}-5}\right ]^{4}+ \left [ a^{2} -\sqrt{a^{2}-5}\right ]^{4}:

=2 \left [ a^{8}+6a^{6}-29a^{4}+10a^{2}+25 \right ]
