The value of the numerically greatest term in the expansion of 4 - 3 x 7 when x = 2 3 is equal to
Options
- A71680
- B35840
- C10752
- D86016
Correct answer
D. 86016
Step-by-step solution
We know that, T r + 1 has the greatest numerical value where, r = n + 1 a x + a ,   where   . = GIF ⇒ r = 7 + 1 - 3 x - 3 x + 4 = 8 3 ⋅ 2 3 3 2 3 + 4 = 2 ⇒ T 3 will be the term with greatest numerical value and T 3 = 7 C 2 4 5 3 x 2 = 7 C 2 4 5 3 2 2 3 2 = 86016 .
