Binomial Theorem
The largest natural number $n$ such that $3^{n}$ divides $66 !$ is ___________.
Explanation:
$ \begin{aligned} & {\left[\frac{66}{3}\right]=22} \\\\ & {\left[\frac{66}{3^2}\right]=7} \\\\ & {\left[\frac{66}{3^3}\right]=2} \end{aligned} $
Highest powers of 3 is greater than 66. So, their g.i.f. is always 0.
$\therefore$ Required natural number $=22+7+2=31$
The coefficient of $x^{18}$ in the expansion of $\left(x^{4}-\frac{1}{x^{3}}\right)^{15}$ is __________.
Explanation:
$\begin{aligned} \therefore 60-7 r =18 \\\\ \Rightarrow 7 r =42 \\\\ \Rightarrow r =6\end{aligned}$
$\therefore$ The coefficient of $x^{18}$
$ ={ }^{15} C_6(-1)^6=\frac{15 \times 14 \times 13 \times 12 \times 11 \times 10}{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}=5005 $
Let the sixth term in the binomial expansion of ${\left( {\sqrt {{2^{{{\log }_2}\left( {10 - {3^x}} \right)}}} + \root 5 \of {{2^{(x - 2){{\log }_2}3}}} } \right)^m}$ in the increasing powers of $2^{(x-2) \log _{2} 3}$, be 21 . If the binomial coefficients of the second, third and fourth terms in the expansion are respectively the first, third and fifth terms of an A.P., then the sum of the squares of all possible values of $x$ is __________.
Explanation:
$ \begin{aligned} \therefore \quad & a={ }^m C_1 \\\\ & a+2 d={ }^m C_2 \\\\ & a+4 d={ }^m C_3 \\\\ \therefore \quad & 2{ }^m C_2-{ }^m C_3=m \\\\ \Rightarrow & m=7 \text { or } m=2 \\\\ \because & m=2 \text { is not possible } \\\\ \therefore & m=7 \end{aligned} $
$\mathrm{T}_6={ }^{\mathrm{m}} \mathrm{C}_5\left(10-3^{\mathrm{x}}\right)^{\frac{\mathrm{m}-5}{2}} \cdot\left(3^{\mathrm{x}-2}\right)=21$
Putting value of m = 7, we get
$\begin{aligned} & T_{5+1}={ }^7 C_5\left(10-3^x\right)^{\frac{7-5}{2}} 3^{x-2}=21 \\\\ & \Rightarrow \frac{10.3^x-\left(3^x\right)^2}{3^2}=1\end{aligned}$
$ \begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow \left(3^x\right)^2-10 \cdot 3^x+9=0 \\\\ & \Rightarrow 3^x=9,1 \\\\ & \Rightarrow x=0,2 \end{aligned} $
Sum of squares of values of x = 02 + 22 = 4
If the term without $x$ in the expansion of $\left(x^{\frac{2}{3}}+\frac{\alpha}{x^{3}}\right)^{22}$ is 7315 , then $|\alpha|$ is equal to ___________.
Explanation:
$ T_{r+1}={ }^{22} C_r\left(x^{\frac{2}{3}}\right)^{22-r}\left(\frac{\alpha}{x^3}\right)^r $
For constant term
$ \begin{aligned} & \frac{44-2 r}{3}-3 r=0 \\\\ & \Rightarrow r=4 \end{aligned} $
Now ${ }^{22} \mathrm{C}_4 \alpha^4=7315$
$ \begin{aligned} & \frac{22 \times 21 \times 20 \times 19}{4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1} \alpha^4=7315 \\\\ & \therefore \alpha^4=1 \\\\ & \therefore |\alpha|=1 \end{aligned} $
The remainder, when $19^{200}+23^{200}$ is divided by 49 , is ___________.
Explanation:
= $(21-2)^{200}+(21+2)^{200}=49 \lambda+2^{201}$
Now, $2^{201}=8^{67}=(7+1)^{67}=49 \lambda+7 \times 67+1$
$=49 \lambda+470$
$=49(\lambda+9)+29$
$ \therefore $ Remainder $=29$
expansion of $\left(\frac{4 x}{5}+\frac{5}{2 x^{2}}\right)^{9}$, is
Explanation:
$ \begin{aligned} T_{r+1} & ={ }^{9} C_{r}\left(\frac{4 x}{5}\right)^{9-r}\left(\frac{5}{2 x^{2}}\right)^{r} \\\\ 9-3 r & =-6 \\\\ r & =5 \end{aligned} $
Coeff of $x^{-6}={ }^{9} C_{5}\left(\frac{4}{5}\right)^{4}\left(\frac{5}{2}\right)^{5}$ $ =5040 $
Explanation:
$ \begin{aligned} T_{r+1} & ={ }^{9} C_{r}\left(\frac{x^{\frac{5}{2}}}{2}\right)^{9-r}\left(\frac{-4}{x^{l}}\right)^{r} \\ & ={ }^{9} C_{r} x^{\frac{45-5 r}{2}-lr} \cdot 2^{r-9} \cdot 4^{r} \cdot(-1)^{r} \end{aligned} $
For constant term, power of x is zero.
So, $\frac{45-5 r}{2}=l r \Rightarrow 2 l r+5 r=45$
Now constant term $=-84$
and ${ }^{9} C_{r} \cdot 2^{3 r-9}(-1)^{r}=-84$
So, $r=3$ and $l=5$
Now for $x^{-15}, \frac{45-5 r}{2}-5 r=-15$
$ \Rightarrow $ $ 45-15 r=-30 $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ r=5 $
$\therefore $ Coefficient $=-{ }^{9} C_{5} 2^{6}=-63.2^{7}$
$\therefore \alpha=7, \beta=-63$
and $|\alpha l-\beta|=|7 \times 5+63|=98$
The remainder on dividing $5^{99}$ by 11 is ____________.
Explanation:
$=625\left[5^{5}\right]^{19}$
$=625[3125]^{19}$
$=625[3124+1]^{19}$
$=625[11 \mathrm{k} \times 19+1]$
$=625 \times 11 \mathrm{k} \times 19+625$
$=11 \mathrm{k}_{1}+616+9$
$=11\left(\mathrm{k}_{2}\right)+9$
Remainder $=9$
Let $\alpha>0$, be the smallest number such that the expansion of $\left(x^{\frac{2}{3}}+\frac{2}{x^{3}}\right)^{30}$ has a term $\beta x^{-\alpha}, \beta \in \mathbb{N}$. Then $\alpha$ is equal to ___________.
Explanation:
$={ }^{30} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}} \cdot 2^{\mathrm{r}} \cdot \mathrm{x}^{\frac{60-11 \mathrm{r}}{3}}$
$\frac{60-11 \mathrm{r}}{3}<0 $
$\Rightarrow 11 \mathrm{r}>60 $
$\Rightarrow \mathrm{r}>\frac{60}{11} $
$\Rightarrow \mathrm{r}=6$
$\mathrm{T}_{7}={ }^{30} \mathrm{C}_{6} \cdot 2^{6} \mathrm{x}^{-2}$
We have also observed $\beta={ }^{30} \mathrm{C}_{6}(2)^{6}$ is a natural number.
$\therefore \alpha=2$
Explanation:
Given ${x^{{1 \over {50}}}} = 12 \Rightarrow x = {12^{50}}$
${y^{{1 \over {50}}}} = 18 \Rightarrow y = {18^{50}}$
$12\equiv13$ (Mod 25)
$12^2\equiv19$ (Mod 25)
$12^3\equiv-3$ (Mod 25)
$12^9\equiv-2$ (Mod 25)
$12^{10}\equiv-1$ (Mod 25)
$12^{50}\equiv-1$ (Mod 25) ..... (i)
Now
$18\equiv7$ (Mod 25)
$18^2\equiv-1$ (Mod 25)
$18^{-50}\equiv-1$ (Mod 25) ..... (ii)
$\therefore$ $12^{50}+18^{50}\equiv-2$ (Mod 25)
$\equiv23$ (Mod 25)
$\therefore$ Answer = 23
Let the coefficients of three consecutive terms in the binomial expansion of $(1+2x)^n$ be in the ratio 2 : 5 : 8. Then the coefficient of the term, which is in the middle of those three terms, is __________.
Explanation:
$ \begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow \frac{{ }^{\mathrm{n}} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}-1}(2)^{\mathrm{r}-1}}{{ }^{\mathrm{n}} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}}(2)^{\mathrm{r}}}=\frac{2}{5} \\\\ & \Rightarrow \frac{\frac{n !}{(r-1) !(n-r+1) !}}{\frac{n !(2)}{r !(n-r) !}}=\frac{2}{5} \\\\ & \Rightarrow \frac{\mathrm{r}}{\mathrm{n}-\mathrm{r}+1}=\frac{4}{5} \Rightarrow 5 \mathrm{r}=4 \mathrm{n}-4 \mathrm{r}+4 \\\\ & \Rightarrow 9 \mathrm{r}=4(\mathrm{n}+1) \quad\quad...(1)\\\\ & \Rightarrow \frac{{ }^{n} C_{r}(2)^{\mathrm{r}}}{{ }^{\mathrm{n}} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}+1}(2)^{\mathrm{r}+1}}=\frac{5}{8} \\\\ & \Rightarrow \frac{\frac{n !}{r !(n-r) !}}{\frac{n !}{(r+1) !(n-r-1) !}}=\frac{5}{4} \Rightarrow \frac{r+1}{n-r}=\frac{5}{4} \\\\ & \Rightarrow 4 \mathrm{r}+4=5 \mathrm{n}-5 \mathrm{r} \Rightarrow 5 \mathrm{n}-4=9 \mathrm{r} \quad\quad...(2) \end{aligned} $
From (1) and (2)
$ \Rightarrow 4 \mathrm{n}+4=5 \mathrm{n}-4 \Rightarrow \mathrm{n}=8 $
$(1) \Rightarrow r=4$
so, coefficient of middle term is
$ { }^{8} \mathrm{C}_{4} 2^{4}=16 \times \frac{8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5}{4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}=16 \times 70=1120 $
If the co-efficient of $x^9$ in ${\left( {\alpha {x^3} + {1 \over {\beta x}}} \right)^{11}}$ and the co-efficient of $x^{-9}$ in ${\left( {\alpha x - {1 \over {\beta {x^3}}}} \right)^{11}}$ are equal, then $(\alpha\beta)^2$ is equal to ___________.
Explanation:
$\because$ Both are equal
$\therefore \frac{11}{C_{6}} \cdot \frac{\alpha^{5}}{\beta^{6}}=-\frac{11}{C_{5}} \cdot \frac{\alpha^{6}}{\beta^{5}}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{1}{\beta}=-\alpha$
$\Rightarrow \alpha \beta=-1$
$\Rightarrow(\alpha \beta)^{2}=1$

Term independent of $x=$ coefficient of $x^{35}$ in
$ \begin{aligned} & ^{5} C_{4}\left(x^{8}(3 x+2)\right)^{4} \\\\ = & { }^{5} C_{4} \text { coefficient of } x^{3} \text { in }(2+3 x)^{4} \\\\ = & { }^{5} C_{4} \times{ }^{4} C_{3}(2)^{1}(3)^{3} \\\\ = & 5 \times 4 \times 2 \times 27 \\\\ = & 1080 \end{aligned} $
Let the sum of the coefficients of the first three terms in the expansion of ${\left( {x - {3 \over {{x^2}}}} \right)^n},x \ne 0.~n \in \mathbb{N}$, be 376. Then the coefficient of $x^4$ is __________.
Explanation:
$ \begin{aligned} & 3 n^{2}-5 n-250=0 \\\\ & n=10, \frac{-25}{3} \text { (Rejected) } \\\\ & T_{r+1}={ }^{n} C_{r} \cdot x^{n-r}\left(\frac{-3}{x^{2}}\right)^{r} \\\\ & ={ }^{n} C_{r} x x^{n-3 r}(-3)^{r} \\\\ & ={ }^{10} C_{r} x^{10-3 r}(-3)^{r} \end{aligned} $
Here $r=2$
$ \begin{aligned} \text {Required coefficient } & ={ }^{10} \mathrm{C}_{2}(-3)^{2} \\\\ & =45 \times 9 \\\\ & =405 \end{aligned} $

$ = \sum\limits_{r = 0}^{2023} {{r^2}\,.\,{{2023} \over r}\,.{}^{2022}{C_{r - 1}}} $

$ = 2023\sum\limits_{r = 0}^{2023} {[(r - 1) + 1]\,.\,{}^{2022}{C_{r - 1}}} $
$ = 2023\left[ {\sum\limits_{r = 0}^{2023} {(r - 1)\,.\,{}^{2022}{C_{r - 1}} + \sum\limits_{r = 0}^{2023} {{}^{2022}{C_{r - 1}}} } } \right]$
$ = 2023\left[ {\sum\limits_{r = 0}^{2023} {(r - 1)\,.\,{{2022} \over {(r - 1)}}\,.\,{}^{2021}{C_{r - 2}} + {2^{2022}}} } \right]$
$ = 2023\left[ {2022\sum\limits_{r = 0}^{2023} {{}^{2021}{C_{r - 2}} + {2^{2022}}} } \right]$
$ = 2023\left[ {2022\,.\,{2^{2021}} + {2^{2022}}} \right]$
$ = 2023\,.\,{2^{2021}}\left[ {2022 + 2} \right]$
$ = 2023\,.\,{2^{2021}}\,.\,2024$
$ = 2023\,.\,{{{2^{2022}}} \over {{2}}}\,.\,2024$
$ = 2023\,.\,{2^{2022}}\,.\,{1012}$
$\therefore$ $\alpha = {1012}$

$ \text { If } \sum\limits_{k=1}^{10} K^{2}\left(10_{C_{K}}\right)^{2}=22000 L \text {, then } L \text { is equal to }$ ________.
Explanation:
Given,
$\sum\limits_{k = 1}^{10} {{k^2}{{\left( {{}^{10}{C_k}} \right)}^2} = 2200\,L} $
$ \Rightarrow \sum\limits_{k = 1}^{10} {{{\left( {k\,.\,{}^{10}{C_k}} \right)}^2} = 22000\,L} $
$ \Rightarrow \sum\limits_{k = 1}^{10} {{{\left( {k\,.\,{{10} \over k}\,.\,{}^9{C_{k - 1}}} \right)}^2} = 22000\,L} $
$ \Rightarrow \sum\limits_{k = 1}^{10} {{{\left( {10\,.\,{}^9{C_{k - 1}}} \right)}^2} = 22000\,L} $
$ \Rightarrow 100\,.\,\sum\limits_{k = 1}^{10} {{{\left( {{}^9{C_{k - 1}}} \right)}^2} = 22000\,L} $
$ \Rightarrow 100\left( {{{\left( {{}^9{C_0}} \right)}^2} + {{\left( {{}^9{C_1}} \right)}^2}\, + \,....\, + \,{{\left( {{}^9{C_9}} \right)}^2}} \right) = 22000\,L$
$ \Rightarrow 100\left( {{}^{18}{C_9}} \right) = 22000\,L$
[Note : ${\left( {{}^n{C_1}} \right)^2} + {\left( {{}^n{C_2}} \right)^2}\, + \,....\, + \,{\left( {{}^n{C_n}} \right)^2} = {}^{2n}{C_n}$]
$ \Rightarrow 100 \times {{18!} \over {9!\,9!}} = 22000\,L$
$ \Rightarrow L = 221$
Let the ratio of the fifth term from the beginning to the fifth term from the end in the binomial expansion of $\left(\sqrt[4]{2}+\frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{3}}\right)^{\mathrm{n}}$, in the increasing powers of $\frac{1}{\sqrt[4]{3}}$ be $\sqrt[4]{6}: 1$. If the sixth term from the beginning is $\frac{\alpha}{\sqrt[4]{3}}$, then $\alpha$ is equal to _________.
Explanation:
Fifth term from beginning $ = {}^n{C_4}{\left( {{2^{{1 \over 4}}}} \right)^{n - 4}}{\left( {{3^{{{ - 1} \over 4}}}} \right)^4}$
Fifth term from end $ = {(n - 5 + 1)^{th}}$ term from begin $ = {}^n{C_{n - 4}}{\left( {{2^{{1 \over 4}}}} \right)^3}{\left( {{3^{{{ - 1} \over 4}}}} \right)^{n - 4}}$
Given ${{{}^n{C_4}{2^{{{n - 4} \over 4}}}\,.\,{3^{ - 1}}} \over {{}^n{C_{n - 3}}{2^{{4 \over 4}}}\,.\,{3^{ - \left( {{{n - 4} \over 4}} \right)}}}} = {6^{{1 \over 4}}}$
$ \Rightarrow {6^{{{n - 8} \over 4}}} = {6^{{1 \over 4}}}$
$ \Rightarrow {{n - 8} \over 4} = {1 \over 4} \Rightarrow n = 9$
${T_6} = {T_{5 + 1}} = {}^9{C_5}{\left( {{2^{{1 \over 4}}}} \right)^4}{\left( {{3^{{{ - 1} \over 4}}}} \right)^5}$
$ = {{{}^9{C_5}\,.\,2} \over {{3^{{1 \over 4}}}\,.\,3}} = {{84} \over {{3^{{1 \over 4}}}}} = {\alpha \over {{3^{{1 \over 4}}}}}$
$ \Rightarrow \alpha = 84.$
