AP EAMCET2003MathematicsBinomial Theorem
If the coefficient of (2 r+1) th term and (r+2) th term in the expansion of (1+x)⁴³ are equal, then r is equal to :
Options
- A12
- B14
- C16
- D18
Correct answer
B. 14
Step-by-step solution
Given that, Coefficient of (2 r+1) th term = co-efficient of (r+2) th term 43 2 r = 43 r+1 2 r+(r+1)=43 or 2 r=r+1 r=14 or r=1 thus r=14
