If the coefficients of (2 r+6)^ th and (r-1)^ th terms in the expansion of (1+x)²¹ are equal, then the value of r=
Options
- A7
- B5
- C6
- D8
Correct answer
C. 6
Step-by-step solution
General term of (1+x)²¹ is T _ r +1 = ²¹ C _ r x^ r Coefficient of (2 r+6)^ th term = Coeff. of (r-1)^ th term 2 r+5=21-(r-2) r =6
