Let $\left(1+x+x^2\right)^{10}=a_0+a_1 x+a_2 x^2+\ldots+a_{20} x^{20}$. If $\left(a_1+a_3+a_5+\ldots+a_{19}\right)-11 a_2=121 k$, then $k$ is equal to_________ .
Explanation:
Let $f(x)=\left(1+x+x^2\right)^{10}=\sum_{r=0}^{20} a_r x^r$
The sum of odd coefficients: $S_{\text {odd }}=a_1+a_3+a_5+\cdots$ $+a_{19}$
Subtracting $11 a_2$ from above will give the answer
$\begin{aligned} & S_{\text {odd }}=\frac{f(1)-f(-1)}{2} \\ & f(1)=(1+1+1)^{10}=3^{10} \\ & f(-1)=(1-1+1)^{10}=(1)^{10}=1 \\ & S_{\text {odd }}=\sum_{\text {odd } r} a_r=\frac{3^{10}-1}{2} \end{aligned}$
Now for $a_2$
$1+x+x^2=\frac{1-x^3}{1-x} \Rightarrow f(x)=\left(\frac{1-x^3}{1-x}\right)=\frac{\left(1-x^3\right)^{10}}{(1-x)^{10}}$
Now use:
$\begin{aligned} & \left(1-x^3\right)^{10}=\sum_{x=0}^{10}(-1)^k\binom{10}{k} x^{3 k} \\ & (1-x)^{-10}=\sum_{r=0}^{\infty}\binom{r+9}{9} x^r \end{aligned}$
So
$f(x)=\left(\sum_{k=0}^{10}(-1)^k\binom{10}{k} x^{3 k}\right) \cdot\left(\sum_{r=0}^{\infty}\binom{r+9}{9} x^r\right)$
Only the term with $x^0$ from the first sum (i.e., $k=0$ ) can contribute to $x^2$, since all other $k \geq 1$ gives $x^{3 k} \geq$ $x^3$
From $\left(1-x^3\right)^{10}$ : the $x^0$ term is $\binom{10}{0}=1$
From $(1-x)^{-10}$ : the coefficient of $x^2$ is
$\binom{2+9}{9}=\binom{11}{9}=55$
Hence, $a_2=1.55=55$
$\begin{aligned} & \text { Now, } S_{\text {odd }}-11 a_2=\frac{3^{10}-1}{2}-11 \cdot 55=121 k \\ & 3^{10}=59049 \end{aligned}$
So:
$\begin{aligned} & S=\frac{59049-1}{2}-605=\frac{59048}{2}-605 \\ & =29524-605=28919 \end{aligned}$
So:
$121 k=28919 \Rightarrow k=\frac{28919}{121}=239$

$\text { If } \frac{{ }^{11} C_1}{2}+\frac{{ }^{11} C_2}{3}+\ldots+\frac{{ }^{11} C_9}{10}=\frac{n}{m} \text { with } \operatorname{gcd}(n, m)=1 \text {, then } n+m \text { is equal to }$ _______.
Explanation:
$\begin{aligned} & \sum_{\mathrm{r}=1}^9 \frac{{ }^{11} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}}}{\mathrm{r}+1} \\ & =\frac{1}{12} \sum_{\mathrm{r}=1}^9{ }^{12} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}+1} \\ & =\frac{1}{12}\left[2^{12}-26\right]=\frac{2035}{6} \\ & \therefore \mathrm{m}+\mathrm{n}=2041 \end{aligned}$
The coefficient of $x^{2012}$ in the expansion of $(1-x)^{2008}\left(1+x+x^2\right)^{2007}$ is equal to _________.
Explanation:
$\begin{aligned} & (1-x)(1-x)^{2007}\left(1+x+x^2\right)^{2007} \\ & (1-x)\left(1-x^3\right)^{2007} \\ & (1-x)\left({ }^{2007} C_0-{ }^{2007} C_1\left(x^3\right)+\ldots \ldots .\right) \end{aligned}$
General term
$\begin{aligned} & (1-x)\left((-1)^r{ }^{2007} C_r x^{3 r}\right) \\ & (-1)^{r 2007} C_r x^{3 r}-(-1)^{r 2007} C_r x^{3 r+1} \\ & 3 r=2012 \\ & r \neq \frac{2012}{3} \\ & 3 r+1=2012 \\ & 3 r=2011 \\ & r \neq \frac{2011}{3} \end{aligned}$
Hence there is no term containing $\mathrm{x}^{2012}$.
So coefficient of $\mathrm{x}^{2012}=0$
The remainder, when $7^{103}$ is divided by 17, is __________
Explanation:
$ \begin{aligned} & =7 \times(49)^{51} \\\\ & =7 \times(51-2)^{51} \end{aligned} $
Remainder = $7 \times(-2)^{51}$
$ \begin{aligned} & =-7\left(2^3 \cdot(16)^{12}\right) \\\\ & =-56(17-1)^{12} \end{aligned} $
Remainder $=-56 \times(-1)^{12}=-56+68=12$
Let $\alpha$ be the constant term in the binomial expansion of $\left(\sqrt{x}-\frac{6}{x^{\frac{3}{2}}}\right)^{n}, n \leq 15$. If the sum of the coefficients of the remaining terms in the expansion is 649 and the coefficient of $x^{-n}$ is $\lambda \alpha$, then $\lambda$ is equal to _____________.
Explanation:
The $r$-th term of the binomial expansion of $(a+b)^n$ is given by
$T_{r} = {}^n{C_r}a^{n-r}b^{r}$.
Substitute $a$ and $b$ in this formula, we get:
$T_{r} = {}^n{C_r}(\sqrt{x})^{n-r}\left(-\frac{6}{x^{3/2}}\right)^r = {}^n{C_r}(-6)^r x^{\frac{n-4r}{2}}$.
The constant term in the binomial expansion is obtained when the power of $x$ in the terms equals zero.
This happens when $\frac{n-4r}{2} = 0$, which gives $n = 4r$.
$ \begin{aligned} & { }^n C_{\frac{n}{4}}(-6)^{\frac{n}{4}}=\alpha \\\\ & (-5)^n-{ }^n C_{\frac{n}{4}}(-6)^{n / 4}=649 \\\\ & \text { By observation (625 + 24 = 649) , we get n = 4 } \\\\ & \therefore \alpha=-24 \end{aligned} $
Now, for coefficient of $x^{-4}$
$ \begin{aligned} & \frac{n-4 r}{2}=-4 \\\\ & n=4 r-8 \Rightarrow r=3 \\\\ & \lambda(-24)=(-6)^3 \cdot{ }^4 C_3 \\\\ & \Rightarrow \lambda=36 \end{aligned} $
The mean of the coefficients of $x, x^{2}, \ldots, x^{7}$ in the binomial expansion of $(2+x)^{9}$ is ___________.
Explanation:
$ T_{r+1}={ }^n C_r 2^{n-r} \times x^r $
Coefficient of $x\left(T_1\right)={ }^9 C_1 \times 2^8$
Coefficient of $x^2\left(T_2\right)={ }^9 C_2 \times 2^7$
Coefficient of $x^3\left(T_3\right)={ }^9 C_3 \times 2^6$
              .                    .
              .                    .
              .                    .
Coefficient of $x^7\left(T_7\right)={ }^9 C_7 \times 2^2$
$ \text { Mean }=\frac{{ }^9 C_1 \times 2^8+{ }^9 C_2 \times 2^7+{ }^9 C_3 \times 2^6+\ldots+{ }^9 C_7 \times 2^2}{7} $
$ \begin{aligned} & { }^9 C_0 \times 2^9+{ }^9 C_1 \times 2^8+{ }^9 C_2 \times 2^7+{ }^9 C_3 \times 2^6+\ldots .+{ }^9 C_7 \times 2^2 \\ & =\frac{+{ }^9 C_8 \times 2^1+{ }^9 C_9 \times 2^0-{ }^9 C_0 \times 2^9-{ }^9 C_8 \times 2^1-{ }^9 C_9 \times 2^0}{7} \end{aligned} $
$ =\frac{(1+2)^9-2^9-18-1}{7}=\frac{19152}{7}=2736 $
The number of integral terms in the expansion of $\left(3^{\frac{1}{2}}+5^{\frac{1}{4}}\right)^{680}$ is equal to ___________.
Explanation:
The term will be integral if $r$ is a multiple of 4 .
$ \begin{gathered} \therefore r=0,4,8,12, \ldots, 680(\text { which is an } \mathrm{AP}) \\\\ 680=0+(n-1) 4 \\\\ n=\frac{680}{4}+1=171 \end{gathered} $
The coefficient of $x^7$ in ${(1 - x + 2{x^3})^{10}}$ is ___________.
Explanation:
So, general term is $\frac{10 !}{r_{1} ! r_{2} ! r_{3} !}(1)^{r_1}(-1)^{r_2} \cdot(2)^{r_3} \cdot(x)^{r_2+r_3}$
Where, $r_1+r_2+r_3=10$ and $r_2+3 r_3=7$
Now, for possibility,
$\begin{array}{ccc}r_1 & r_2 & r_3 \\ 3 & 7 & 0 \\ 7 & 1 & 2 \\ 5 & 4 & 1\end{array}$
Thus, required co-efficient
$ \begin{aligned} & =\frac{10 !}{3 ! 7 !}(-1)^7+\frac{10 !}{5 ! 4 !}(-1)^4(2)+\frac{10 !}{7 ! 2 !}(-1)^1(2)^2 \\\\ & =-120+2520-1440 \\\\ & =2520-1560=960 \end{aligned} $
Let $[t]$ denote the greatest integer $\leq t$. If the constant term in the expansion of $\left(3 x^{2}-\frac{1}{2 x^{5}}\right)^{7}$ is $\alpha$, then $[\alpha]$ is equal to ___________.
Explanation:
$ \mathrm{T}_{r+1}={ }^7 \mathrm{C}_r\left(3 x^2\right)^{7-r}\left(\frac{-1}{2 x^5}\right)^r $
For constant term, power of $x$ should be zero.
$ \begin{aligned} & \text { i.e., } 14-2 r-5 r=0 \\\\ & \Rightarrow 14=7 r \Rightarrow r=2 \end{aligned} $
Now, constant term $=\alpha$
$ \begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow{ }^7 C_2(3)^5\left(\frac{-1}{2}\right)^2=\alpha \\\\ & \Rightarrow 21 \times 243 \times \frac{1}{4}=\alpha \\\\ & \Rightarrow[\alpha]=[1275.75]=1275 \end{aligned} $
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
$\therefore \frac{11}{C_{6}} \cdot \frac{\alpha^{5}}{\beta^{6}}=-\frac{11}{C_{5}} \cdot \frac{\alpha^{6}}{\beta^{5}}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{1}{\beta}=-\alpha$
$\Rightarrow \alpha \beta=-1$
$\Rightarrow(\alpha \beta)^{2}=1$

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} $
