Let ${ }^{n} C_{r}$ denote the binomial coefficient of $x^{r}$ in the expansion of $(1+ x )^{ n }.$
If $\sum_{ k =0}^{10}\left(2^{2}+3 k \right){ }^{ n } C _{ k }=\alpha .3^{10}+\beta \cdot 2^{10}, \alpha, \beta \in R$ then $\alpha+\beta$ is equal to ....... .
Answera
Instead of ${ }^{n} C_{k}$ it must be ${ }^{10} C_{k}$ i.e.
$\sum_{k=0}^{10}\left(2^{2}+3 k\right){ }^{10} C _{ k }=\alpha .3^{10}+\beta .2^{10}$
$LHS =4 \sum_{ k =0}^{10}{ }^{10} C _{ k }+3 \sum_{ k =0}^{10} k \cdot \frac{10}{ k } \cdot{ }^{9} C _{ k -1}$
$=4.2^{10}+3.10 .2^{9}$
$=19.2^{10}=\alpha .3^{10}+\beta .2^{10}$
$\Rightarrow \alpha=0, \beta=19 \Rightarrow \alpha+\beta=19$

Answerb
Let $t_{\mathrm{r}}+1$ denotes
$\mathrm{r}+1 \mathrm{th}$ term of $\left(\alpha \mathrm{x}^{\frac{1}{9}}+\beta \mathrm{x}^{-\frac{1}{6}}\right)^{10}$
$t_{\mathrm{r}+1}={ }^{10} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}} \alpha^{10-\mathrm{r}}(\mathrm{x})^{\frac{10-\mathrm{r}}{9}} \cdot \beta^{\mathrm{r}} \mathrm{x}^{-\frac{\mathrm{r}}{6}}$
$={ }^{10} \mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{r}} \alpha^{10-\mathrm{r}} \beta^{\mathrm{r}}(\mathrm{x})^{\frac{10-\mathrm{r}}{9}-\frac{\mathrm{r}}{6}}$
If $t_{\mathrm{r}}+1$ is independent of $\mathrm{x}$
$\frac{10-r}{9}-\frac{r}{6}=0 \Rightarrow r=4$
maximum value of $\mathrm{t}_{5}$ is $10 \mathrm{K}$ (given)
$\Rightarrow{ }^{10} \mathrm{C}_{4} \alpha^{6} \beta^{4}$ is maximum
By $\mathrm{AM} \geq \mathrm{GM}$ (for positive numbers)
$\frac{\frac{\alpha^{3}}{2}+\frac{\alpha^{3}}{2}+\frac{\beta^{2}}{2}+\frac{\beta^{2}}{2}}{4} \geq\left(\frac{\alpha^{6} \beta^{4}}{16}\right)^{\frac{1}{4}}$
$\Rightarrow \alpha^{6} \beta^{4} \leq 16$
So, $10 \mathrm{K}={ }^{10} \mathrm{C}_{4} 16$

If for some positive integer $n,$ the coefficients of three consecutive terms in the binomial expansion of $(1+x)^{n+5}$ are in the ratio $5: 10: 14,$ then the largest coefficient in this expansion is
Answerc
Let $n+5=N$
$N _{ C _{ r -1}}: N _{ C _{ r }}: N _{ C _{ r +1}}=5: 10: 14$
$\Rightarrow \frac{ N _{ C _{r}}}{ N _{ C _{ r -1}}}=\frac{ N +1- r }{ r }=2$
$\frac{N_{C_{r+1}}}{N_{C_{r}}}=\frac{N-r}{r+1}=\frac{7}{5}$
$\Rightarrow \quad r=4, N=11$
$\Rightarrow \quad(1+x)^{11}$
Largest coefficient $={ }^{11} C _{6}=462$

The natural number $m$, for which the coefficient of $x$ in the binomial expansion of $\left( x ^{ m }+\frac{1}{ x ^{2}}\right)^{22}$ is $1540,$ is
Answerc
$T_{ r +1}={ }^{22} C _{ r }\left( x ^{ m }\right)^{22- r }\left(\frac{1}{ x ^{2}}\right)^{ r }=22 C _{ r } x ^{22 m - mr -2 r }$
$=22 C _{ r } x$
$\because 22 C _{3}=22 C _{19}=1540$
$\therefore r =3$ or 19
$Z 2 m - mr -2 r =1$
$m =\frac{2 r +1}{22-5}$
$r =3, \quad m =\frac{7}{19} \notin N$
$r =19, m =\frac{38+1}{22-19}=\frac{39}{3}=13$

Given $\left(2 x^{2}+3 x+4\right)^{10}=\sum_{ r =0}^{20} a _{ r } x ^{ r }$
replace x by $\frac{2}{x}$ in above identity :-
$\frac{2^{10}\left(2 x ^{2}+3 x +4\right)^{10}}{ x ^{20}}=\sum_{ r =0}^{20} \frac{ a _{ r } 2^{ r }}{ x ^{ r }}$
