Correct answer

A. 336336

Step-by-step solution

Tr+1=Cr10(\alphax19)10−r(βx−16)r{T}_{r + 1} = Cr 10 {\left(\alphax\dfrac{1}{9}\right)}^{10 - r}{\left(\beta{x}^{- \dfrac{1}{6}}\right)}^{r}

Tr+1=Cr10α10−rβr(x)10−r9−r6{T}_{r + 1} = Cr 10 {\alpha}^{10 - r}{\beta}^{r}{\left(x\right)}^{\dfrac{10 - r}{9} - \dfrac{r}{6}}

Term independent of x⇒x ⇒Power of x=0x = 0

10−r9−r6=0⇒r=4\dfrac{10 - r}{9} - \dfrac{r}{6} = 0 ⇒ r = 4

T5=C410α6β4{T}_{5} = C4 10 {\alpha}^{6}{\beta}^{4}

Now Let α3,β2{\alpha}^{3}, {\beta}^{2} are two numbers. Clearly both are positive.

A.M.≥G.M.A . M . \ge G . M .

⇒α3+β22≥(α3β2)1/2⇒ \dfrac{{\alpha}^{3} + {\beta}^{2}}{2} \ge {\left({\alpha}^{3}{\beta}^{2}\right)}^{1 / 2}

⇒α3β2≤4⇒ {\alpha}^{3}{\beta}^{2} \le 4

⇒α6β4≤16⇒ {\alpha}^{6}{\beta}^{4} \le 16

⇒T510C4≤16⇒ \dfrac{{T}_{5}}{10{C}_{4}} \le 16

⇒T5≤16.10C4⇒ {T}_{5} \le 16{.}^{10}{C}_{4}

⇒T5max=16×10C4=10k⇒ {T}_{5max} = 16{\times}^{10}{C}_{4} = 10k

⇒10k=3360⇒ 10k = 3360

⇒k=336⇒ k = 336
