COMEDK2023MathematicsBinomial Theorem
Find ^n C₂₁ , if ^n C₁₀= ^n C₁₂
Options
- A1
- B21
- C22
- D2
Correct answer
C. 22
Step-by-step solution
We know that if ^n C_x= ^n C_y , then either x=y or x+y=n Since, ^n C₁₀= ^n C₁₂ aligned 10+12 & =n n & =22 Now, ^n C₂₁ & = 22 21 & = 22 ! (22-21) ! 21 ! = 22 ! 1 ! 21 ! = 22 21 ! 1 21 ! =22 aligned
