Question
Mathematics Question on Binomial theorem
Coefficient of t24 in (1+t2)12)(1+t12(1+t24) is
A
12C6+3
B
12C6+1
C
12C6
D
12C6+2
Answer
12C6+2
Explanation
Solution
Here, Coefficient of t24 in (1+t2)12)(1+t12(1+t24)
= Coefficient of t24 in (1+t2)12(1+t12+t24+t36)
= Coefficient of t24 in
(1+t2)12+t12(1+t2)12+t24(1+t2)12;
\hspace27mm [ neglecting t36(1+t2)12]
= Coefficient of t24=(12C12+12C6+12C0=2+12C6
