The coefficient of x in the expension of (2x-5)³ is *
Answers
Answer:
the answer is 2 in (2x-5)
Answer:
As per binomial theorem:
Consider the expansion:
In general any (k+1)th term in the expansion is given as :
Thus in general the power of x is 18–3k
For the coefficient of x^3 substitute 18–3k=3 yields us k=5
For k=5 we get the term:
Thus only for the expansion the coefficient of x^3 is (-224/27)
However the expansion is multiplied with 1+x+2x2
Following is the effect of multiplication on the powers of x (one by one):
When the expansion is multiplied with 1, there is no effect on the powers of x
When the entire expansion multiplied with x, all the powers of x in the expansion gets added to 1:
ie:
For x3 we substitute 19–3k=3 which yields k=5.33 since ‘k’ can take only integer values we wont have x3 term on multiplying the expansion x.
Similarly on multiplying the expansion with x2
In general power of x the becomes 20–3k. for x3 term substituting 20–3k=3 we get k=5.667 which is again not possible.
Thus we get x3 only when the expansion is multiplied with 1 and the multiplication x2 and x wont give any x3 term. Thus the coefficient of x3 will remain the same i.e. −224/27
