The coefficient of x 6 in the expansion of 1 - x 8 1 + x 12 is equal to
Options
- A168
- B- 8
- C28
- D104
Correct answer
D. 104
Step-by-step solution
1 - x 8 1 + x 12 = 1 - x 2 8 1 + x 4 = 1 - 8 x 2 + 28 x 4 - 56 x 6 + … 1 + 4 x + 6 x 2 + 4 x 3 + x 4 Hence, the coefficient of x 6 = - 8 + 168 - 56 = 160 = 104
