Options
- A18 7
- B7 18
- C- 7 18
- D- 18 7
Correct answer
B. 7 18
Step-by-step solution
The general term in the expansion of ( 3 x^2 2 - 1 3 x )^9 is T_ r+1 = ^9 C_r ( 3 x^2 2 )^ 9-r ( -1 3 x )^r= ^9 C_r ( 3 2 )^ 9-r ( -1 3 )^r x^ 18-3 r Now, the general tem in the given expansion aligned & = (1+x+2 x^2 ) ( ^9 C_r ( 3 2 )^ 9-r ( -1 3 )^r x^ 18-3 r ) & = ^9 C_r ( 3 2 )^ 9-r ( -1 3 )^r x^ 18-3 r + ^9 C_r ( 3 2 )^ 9-r ( -1 3 )^r & + + ²⁹ C_r ( 3 2 )^ 9-r ( -1 3 )^r x^ 20-3 r aligned for independent of x, 18-3 r=0,19-3 r20-3 r=0 r=6 So, required term = ^9 C₆ ( 3 2 )⁹⁻⁶ ( -1 3 )^6= 7 18 .
