The term independent of x in the expansion of x - 1 x 4 x + 1 x 3 is
Options
- A- 3
- B0
- C1
- D3
Correct answer
B. 0
Step-by-step solution
x - 1 x x - 1 x 3 x + 1 x 3 = x - 1 x x 2 - 1 x 2 3 = x - 1 x x 6 - 3 x 2 + 3 1 x 2 - 1 x 6 There is no term containing 1 x and x in the second bracket. So, the expansion will not contain any term independent of x .
