In the expansion of (2^ 1 5 +7^ 1 7 )¹⁰⁵ , which of the following holds good?
Options
- ANumber of rational terms are 4.
- BNumber of irrational terms are 102.
- CExactly one middle term is irrational.
- DBoth middle terms are irrational.
Correct answer
D. Both middle terms are irrational.
Step-by-step solution
aligned T_ r+1 & = ¹⁰⁵ C_r (2^ 1 5 )^ 105-r 7^ r 7 & = ¹⁰⁵ C_r 2^ 105-r 5 7^ r 7 aligned Clearly r should be a multiple of 7 and 5 , r=0,35,70,105 Number of rational terms =4 Number of irrational terms =102 Middle term =T₅₃ and T₅₄ are both irrational.
