AP EAMCET2005MathematicsBinomial Theorem
If |x| < 1 2 , then the coefficient of x^r in the expansion of 1+2 x (1-2 x)^2 , is
Options
- Ar 2^r
- B(2 r-1) 2^r
- Cr 2^ 2 r+1
- D(2 r+1) 2^r
Correct answer
D. (2 r+1) 2^r
Step-by-step solution
aligned & 1+2 x (1-2 x)^2 =(1+2 x)(1-2 x)⁻² &=(1+2 x) (1+ 2 1 ! (2 x)+ 23 2 ! + + 23 r (r-1) ! (2 x)^ r-1 . & .+ 2 3 4 (r+1)(2 x)^r r ! ) aligned The coefficient of x^r aligned & =2 r ! (r-1) ! 2^ r-1 + (r+1) ! r ! 2^r & =r 2^r+(r+1) 2^r=2^r(2 r+1) aligned
