SOLUTION
Solution : B
mc2=−18⇒m(m−1)2=−18⇒4m2−4m+1=0⇒(2m−1)2=0⇒m=12

6
SOLUTION
Solution : A
We have Tr+1 = 21Cr(3√a√b)21−r(√b3√a)r
= 21Cra7−(r2)b23r−(72)
Since the powers of a and b are the same,
therefore
7 - r2 = 23r - 72 ⇒ r = 9

→67−7r=4→r=9

SOLUTION
Solution : A
15C2r+2 = 15Cr−2
But 15C2r+2 = 15C15−(2r+2) = 15C13−2r
⇒ 15C13−2r = 15Cr−2 ⇒ r = 5.

n(n−1).....(n−r+2)(r−1)!an−r+1(2x)r−1
n(n+1).....(n−r)(r+1)!an−r(x)r
None of these
SOLUTION
Solution : B
rth term of (a+2x)n is nCr−1(a)n−r+1(2x)r−1
= n!(n−r+1)!(r−1)!an−r+1(2x)r−1
= n(n−1).....(n−r+2)(r−1)!an−r+1(2x)r−1
Question 8

458017
- 89627
558017
None of these
SOLUTION
Solution : B
Applying Tr+1 = nCrxn−rd for (x+a)n
Hence T6 = 10C5(2x2)5(- 13x2)5
= - (10!5!5!)(32) (1243) = - 89627
Question 9

18
16
12
-10
SOLUTION
Solution : D
T3 = nC2(x)n−2(−12x)2 and T4 = nC3(x)n−3(−12x)3
But according to the condition,
−n(n−1)×3×2×1×8n(n−1)(n−2)×2×1×4 = 12 ⇒ n = -10
Question 10
Find the value of
(183+73+3⋅18⋅7⋅25)36+6⋅243⋅2+15⋅81⋅4+20⋅27⋅8+15⋅9⋅16+6⋅3⋅32+64

25
100
SOLUTION
Solution : A
The numerator is of the form
a3 + b3+3ab(a+b)=(a+b)3
∴ N' = (18+7)3 = 253
∴ D' = 36+6C1⋅35⋅21+6C2⋅34⋅22+6C3⋅33⋅23+6C4⋅32⋅24+6C5⋅31⋅25+6C6⋅26
This is clearly the expansion of (3+2)6=56=(25)3
N′D′=(25)3(25)3=1
Question 11

7
8
9
None of these
SOLUTION
Solution : B
(n+1)(n+2)2 = 45 or n2 + 3n - 88 = 0 ⇒ n = 8 .
Question 12
The greatest integer less than or equal to (√2+1)6 is
196
197
198
199
SOLUTION
Solution : B
Let (√2+1)6 = k + f, where k is integral part and f
the fraction (0 ≤ f < 1).
Let (√2−1)6 = f, (0 < f < 1),
Since 0 < (√2 - 1) < 1
Now, k + f + f' = (√2+1)6 + (√2−1)6
= 2{6C0.23+6C2.22+6C4.2+6C6} = 198 ..........(i)
∴ f + f' = 198 - k = an integer
But, 0 ≤ f < 1 and 0 < f' < 1 ⇒ 0 < (f + f') < 2
⇒ f + f' = 1, ( ∵ f + f' is an integer)
∴ By (i), l = 198 - (f + f') = 198 - 1 = 197.
Question 13
The number of terms which are free from radical signs in the expansion of (y15+x110)55 is
5
6
7
None of these
SOLUTION
Solution : B
In the expansion of (y15+x110)55, the general
term is
Tr+1 = 55Cr(y15)55−r(x110)r = 55Cry11−r5xr10.
This Tr+1 will be independent of radicals if the exponents r5 and r10 are integers, for
0 ≤ r ≤ 55 which is possible only when
r = 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50.
∴ There are six terms viz. T1,T11,T21,T31,T41,T51
which are independent of radicals.
Question 14
In the expansion of (512+718)1024, the number of integral terms is
128
129
130
131
SOLUTION
Solution : B
Here n = 1024 = 210, a power of 2, where as the
power of 7 is 18 = 2−3
Now first term 1024C0(512)1024 = 5512 (integer)
And after 8 terms, the 9th term = 1024C8(512)1016 (718)8 = an integer
Again, 17th term = 1024C16(512)1008 (718)16
= An integer.
Continuing like this, we get an A.P. 1, 9, 17,..........., 1025,because 1025th term = the last term in the expansion
= 1024C1024(718)1024 = 7128 (an integer)
If n is the number of terms of above A.P. we have
1025 = Tn = 1 + (n - 1)8 ⇒ n = 129.
Question 15
If n is positive integer and three consecutive coefficients in the expansion of (1+x)n are in the ratio 6 : 33 : 110, then n =
4
6
12
16
SOLUTION
Solution : C
Let the consecutive coefficient of (1+x)n are
nCr−1, nCr, nCr+1
By condition, nCr−1 : nCr : nCr+1 = 6 : 33 : 110
Now nCr−1 : nCr = 6 : 33
⇒ 2n - 13r + 2 = 0 ..............(i)
and nCr : nCr+1 = 33: 110
⇒ 3n - 13r - 10 = 0 ...............(ii)
Solving (i) and (ii), we get n = 12 and r = 2.
Aliter: We take first n = 4 [By alternate (a)] but
(a) does not hold. Similarity (b).
So alternate (c), n = 12 gives
(1+x)12 =[1+12x+12.112.1 x2 + 12.11.103.2.1x3+.........]
So coefficient of II, III and IV terms are
12,6×11,2×11×10.
So, 12:6×11:2×11×10=6:33:110.
