Q10.

Answer :

We have:
(1.2)4000=(1+0.2)4000=C04000+C14000×(0.2)1+C24000×(0.2)2+…C40004000×(0.2)4000

=1+4000×0.2+other positive terms=1+800+other positive terms=801+other positive terms∵801 >800

Hence, (1.2)4000 is greater than 800

Q11.

Answer :

(1.01)10+(1-0.01)10=(1+0.01)10+(1-0.01)10=2[C010×(0.01)0+C210×(0.01)2+C410×(0.01)4+C610×(0.01)6+C810×(0.01)8+C1010×(0.01)10]=21+45×0.0001+210×0.00000001+… =21+0.0045+0.00000210+…=2.0090042+…

Hence, the value of (1.01)10 + (1 − 0.01)10 correct to 7 places of the decimal is 2.0090042

Q1.

Answer :

Given:
2x-1×225
Clearly, the given expression contains 26 terms.

So, the 11th term from the end is the (26 − 11 + 1)th term from the beginning. In other words, the 11th term from the end is the 16th term from the beginning.

Thus, we have:
T16=T15+1=C1525(2x)25-15-1×215 =C1525210x10-1×30=-C1525210x20
Now, we will find the 11th term from the beginning.

T11=T10+1 =C1025(2x)25-10-1×210 =C1025215x151x20 =C1025215x5

Q2.

Answer :

We need to find the 7th term of the given expression.
Let it be T7
Now, we have
T7=T6+1
=C610(3×2)10-6-1×36=C61034x81x18=10×9×8×7×814×3×2×x10=17010×10

Thus, the 7th term of the given expression is 17010×10

Q3.

Answer :

Given:
3x-1×210
Clearly, the expression has 6 terms.
The 5th term from the end is the (11 − 5 + 1)th, i.e., 7th, term from the beginning.
Thus, we have:

T7=T6+1=C610(3x)10-6-1×26=C61034x41x12=10×9×8×7×814×3×2×1×x8=17010×8

Q4.

Answer :

We need to find the 8th term in the given expression.
∵T8=T7+1

∴T8=C710(x3/2y1/2)10-7(-x1/2y3/2)7 =-10×9×83×2×9/2y3/2×7/2y21/2 =-120x8y12

Q5.

Answer :

We need to find the 7th term in the given expression.

∵T7=T6+1

∴T7=T6+1 =C684x58-652×6 =8×7×4×4×125×1252×1×25×64 x2 1×6 =4375×4

Q6.

Answer :

Let Tr+1 be the 4th term from the end.
Then, Tr+1 is (10 − 4 + 1)th, i.e., 7th, term from the beginning.

∴ T7=T6+1 =C69 x9-62×6 =9×8×73×2x364x6 =5376×3

4th term from the beginning = T4=T3+1
∴T4=C39 x9-3 2×3 =9×8×73×2x68x3 =672 x3

Q7.

Answer :

Let Tr+1 be the 4th term from the end of the given expression.
Then,
Tr+1 is (10 − 4 + 1)th term, i.e., 7th term, from the beginning.
Thus, we have:
T7=T6+1 =C69 4×59-652×6 =9×8×73×264125×3125×12564×6 =10500×3

Q8.

Answer :

Then, we have:
Tr+1 = (9 − 7 + 1) = 3rd term from the beginning
Now,
T3=T2+1 =C28 (2×2)8-2 -32×2 =8×72×164x1294x2 =4032 x10

(ii) Suppose x7 occurs at the (r + 1) th term in the given expression.

Then, we have:
Tr+1=Cr40 x40-r-1x2r =(-1)r Cr40 x40-r-2rFor this term to contain x7, we must have:40-3r=7⇒3r=40-7=33⇒r=11∴Coefficient of x7 = (-1)11 C1140=-C1140

Q10.

Answer :

Suppose Tr+1th term in the given expression contains x and y to one and the same power.
Then,

Tr+1 th term isCr21xy1/321-r yx1/31/2r=Cr21 x(21-r)/3xr/6yr/2y(21-r)/6=Cr21 x7-r/2y2r/3-7/2Now, if x and y have the same power, then7-r2=2r3-72⇒2r3+r2=7+72⇒7r6=212⇒r=9Hence, the required term is the 10th term

Q11.

Answer :

Suppose x9 occurs in the given expression at the (r + 1)th term.
Then, we have:
Tr+1=Cr20 (2×2)20-r -1xr=(-1)r Cr20220-r x40-2r-rFor this term to contain x9, we must have40-3r=9⇒3r=31⇒r=313 It is not possible, as r is not an integer.

Hence, there is no term with x9 in the given expression.

Q12.

Answer :

Suppose x-1 occurs at the (r + 1)th term in the given expression.
Then,
Tr+1=Cr12 (x2)12-r 1xr=Cr12 x24-2r-rFor this term to contain x-1, we must have24-3r=-1⇒3r=25⇒r=253It is not possible, as r is not an integer.

Hence, the expansion of x2+1×12 does not contain any term involving x-1.
