Please send the complete question

(1+λ)n = C0 + C1x + ..................................Cnxn

similarly for (1+μ)n and 

(λ+μ)n = C0λn + C1λn-1μ + ........................ + Cnμn

On multiplying these 3, we will get the coefficient of  λnμ= ∑Cn3      (Here you should remember that C0 = Cn, C1 = Cn-1 and etc)

For getting the value of  ∑Cn:

multiply the expansions of (1+x)n, (1-x)n and [1-(1/x2)]n and calculate the coefficient of x0, we get ∑Cn3

and if we multiply (1+x)n, (1-x)n and [1-(1/x2)]n, then we get (-1)n(1-x2)2n/x2n so coefficient of xin this expression will be (-1)n 2nC(-1)2nCn

 

 

prove that the integral part of binomial expention is even 
                (5√5 + 11)2n+1

Let x = (5√5 + 11)2n+1 and y = (5√5 - 11)2n+1

so x*y = 42n+1 = even number

similarly x - y = integer

if we consider the value of y , it will be (5*2.3-5)2n+1 = (0.5)2n+1  = fraction number less than 1   (approx)

so definitely y will be the fractional part of x, and difference of x and y is even so integer part of x will be even

The maximum number of real roots of the equation 2x88 + 3x87 − 13x2 + 5x + 9 = 0 is

2x88 + 3x87 − 13x2 + 5x + 9 = 0

implies that 2x88 + 3x87 = 13x2 - 5x - 9

or x87(2x+3) = 13x2 - 5x - 9

now plot the left and right graphs for getting the intersecting points

Hint: Parabola will face in upward direction as a is positive, take x=0 we get -9 so 1 root will be positive and 1 negative,

x87(2x+3) will be 0 for x = -3/2 and x = 0 besides it consider some values as x = 1 and -1

You will get one root between 0 and -1 

now check both the graph at x= -2, you will get the idea about the second intersection

Let α, β and γ be the cube roots of p (p < 0). For any real numbers x, y and z, the value of  (xα+yβ+zγ) (xβ+yγ+zα) is

According to the given condition p is a negative number

consider p = -k so cube root of p will be α = -k1/3, β = -k1/3ω, γ = -k1/3ω2

On applying given values you will get the answer as  ω or ω2

you should use ω3 = 1

    

Solution by Joshi sir

 

According to the given condition p is a negative number

consider p = -k = (k1/3)3(-1) so cube root of p will be α = -k1/3, β = -k1/3ω, γ = -k1/3ω, here -1, -ω, -ω2 are the cube roots of -1

On applying given values on the given expression, you will get  

x(-k1/3)+y(-k1/3ω)+z(-k1/3ω2)/x(-k1/3ω)+y(-k1/3ω2)+z(-k1/3)

=x+yω+zω2/xω+yω2+z

first multiply ω in numerator and denominator we get answer as 1/ω = ω2

second interchange the value of α, β, γ for getting answer as ω

you should use ω3 = 1

    

If A and B are two independent events such that and P(A'∩B)=2/7 and P(A∩B')=1/5, then P(A) is

Joshi sir comment

 

Let p(A) = x and p(B) = y

we know that p(A∩B) + p(A∩B') = p(A)

and                  p(A∩B) + p(B∩A') = p(B)

and for independent event p(A∩B) = p(A)p(B)

so on applying all the given conditions relation etween x and y will be

xy + 1/5 = x

xy + 2/7 = y

solve now

You can solve this question by the following method

possile algebric expression for the given equation is

(x0+x2+x4+........+x20)(x0+x1+x2+..................+x21)(x0+x1+x2+x3+....................x21)                 (i)

Here three brackets are for x , y and z, and powers are based on the range of least to greatest possile values of x, y, z

on solving eq (i) will become (x0+x2+x4+...........+x20)(1-x22)2(1-x)-2

now we have to calculate coefficient of x21 in this expression so (1-x22)2 can be omitted

general term of (1-x)-2 is (r+1)xr

so required coefficient = 22+20+18+16+14+12+10+8+6+4+2 = 132

The number of real negative terms in the binomial expansion of (1+ix)(4n-2),  n  N and x > 0 is?

Joshi sir comment

Total number of terms in the expansion = 4n-2+1 = 4n-1

for a negative real number i2 is compulsory so associated terms are 3rd, 7th, 11th ..........

Total number of terms = n
