Find the middle term in the expansion of
$$\left(3 x-\frac{2}{x^{2}}\right)^{15}$$

4.
Question (i).
Find the coefficent of xn in $$\left(x+\frac{2}{x^{2}}\right)^{17}$$
Here x = x  a  = $$\frac{2}{x^{2}}$$ and  n = 17
Tr+1 = nCr . x n-r.ar
= 17Cr .x 17-r.( $$\frac{2}{x^{2}}$$ )r = 17Cr . 2r.x 17-r-2r
= 17Cr 2 r.x 17-3r
To find coefficient of x11 equate the power of x to 11
⇒ 17 – 3r = 11 ⇒ 17 – 11 = 3r
⇒ 3r = 6 ⇒ r = 2
T2+1 = 17C2 . 22.x11
∴ Coefficient of x” is 17C2 .22 = $$\frac{17 \times 16 \times 2}{2 \times 1}$$ = 544

Question (ii).
Y3 in $$\left(7 y^{2}-\frac{2}{y}\right)^{12}$$
Here x =7y2, a = $$-\frac{2}{y}$$ and n = 12
Tr+1 = 12Cr(7Y2)12-r.$$\left(\frac{-2}{y}\right)^{r}$$
= 12Cr.712-r .y24-2r. y-r(-2)r
Tr+1 = 12Cr.712-r.(-2)r.y24-3r
To find the coefficient of y3 equate the power of y ro 3
i.e., 24 – 3r = 3 ⇒ 21 = 3r ⇒ r= 7
∴T7+1 = 12C7 .712-7. (-2)7 y3
= -12C7 .75 27 . y3
∴Coefficient of y3 is -12C7.75.27

Question (iii).
x11 in $$\left(\sqrt{x}-\frac{2}{x}\right)^{17}$$
lere, x → √x, a →$$\frac{-2}{x}$$ and n = 17

To find the coefficient of x2 equate the power of x to -11
∴ $$\frac{17-3 r}{2}$$ = -11 ⇒ 17 – 3r = – 22
⇒ 17+22 = 3r ⇒ 39 = 3.r ⇒ r = 13
T13+1 = 17C13(-2)13.x-11
Coefficient of x-11 is -17C13.213

Question (iv).
X18 in $$\left(x^{2}-\frac{6}{x}\right)^{15}$$
lere, x → x2, a →$$\frac{-6}{x}$$ and r = 15
Tr+1 = 15Cr.(x2)15-r$$\left(\frac{-6}{x}\right)^{r}$$
Tr+1 = 15Cr.x30-2r.(-6)r.x-r
= 15Cr.(-6)r.x30-2r-r
= 15Cr(-6)r.x30-3r.
To find the coefficient of x18,equate the power of x to 18
∴ 30 – 3r = 18 ⇒ 30 – 18 = 3r ⇒ 3r = 12 ⇒ r = 4
T4+1 = 15C4(-6) 4x18
∴ Coefficient of x18 is 15C4. (6)4

Question (v).
X-2 in $$\left(x+\frac{1}{x^{2}}\right)^{17}$$
Here, x → x, a → $$\frac{1}{x^{2}}$$ and n = 17
∴ Tr+1 = 17Cr.x17-r$$\left(\frac{1}{x^{2}}\right)^{r}$$
Tr+1 = 17Cr.x17-r-2r
= 17Crx17-3r
To find the coefficient of x-2,equate the power of x to -2
17 – 3r = -2 ⇒ 17 + 2 = 3r ⇒ 3r ⇒ r = $$\frac{19}{3}$$
Since r is a fraction the coefficient of x-2 is 0.

Question (vi).
X5 in $$\left(x+\frac{1}{x^{2}}\right)^{17}$$
Here, x → x, a → $$\frac{1}{x^{2}}$$ and n = 17
Tr+1 = 17Cr.x17-r$$\left(\frac{1}{x^{2}}\right)^{r}$$
= 17Crx17-3r
To find the coefficient of x5, equate the power of x to 5
∴ 17 – 3r = 5
12 = 23 ⇒ r = 4
T4+1 = T5 = 17C4.x5
∴ the coefficient of x5 is 17C4

Question (vii).
X18 in $$\left(x^{2}+\frac{3 a}{x}\right)^{15}$$
Here x → x2 a → $$\frac{3 \mathrm{a}}{\mathrm{x}}$$ , n=15
∴ Tr+1 = 15Cr.(x2)15-r $$\left(\frac{3 a}{x}\right)^{r}$$
= 15Crx30-2r.(3a)rxr
=15Cr .3r.ar.x30-3r
To find the coefficient of x18, we get 30 – 3r = 18
12 = 3r ⇒ r =4
∴ T4+1 = 15C4.34.a4.x18
∴ coefficient of x18 is 15C4.(3a)4

5. Find the term independent of x in

Question (i).
$$\left(\frac{4 x^{2}}{3}+\frac{3}{2 x}\right)^{9}$$
Here x → $$\frac{4 x^{2}}{3}$$ , a = $$\frac{3}{2 x}$$ and n = 9

To find the term independent of x, equate the power of x to zero.
e., 18 – 3r = 0 ⇒ r = 6

Question (ii).
$$\left(x^{3}-\frac{3}{x^{2}}\right)^{15}$$
Here x → x3, a = $$\frac{-3}{x^{2}}$$ and n = 15
Tr+1 = 15Cr.(x3)15-r.$$\left(\frac{-3}{x^{2}}\right)^{r}$$
= 15Cr.x45-r.x-2r (-3)r
= 15Cr.(-3)r.x45-5r
To find the term independent of x we have 45 – 5r = O
:. 45 = 5r ⇒ r = 9
T9+1 = 15C9.(-3)9.x0
T10 = -15C9.(3)9 is the term independent of x.

Question (iii).
$$\left(\sqrt{x}+\frac{1}{3 x^{2}}\right)^{10}$$

Question (iv).
$$\left(\frac{3 x^{2}}{2}-\frac{1}{3 x}\right)^{9}$$

Question (v).
$$\left(3 x-\frac{2}{x^{2}}\right)^{15}$$
Here x → 3x a → $$\frac{-2}{x^{2}}$$ and n =15
Tr+1 = 15Cr.(3x)15-r.$$\left(\frac{-2}{x^{2}}\right)^{r}$$
= 15Cr.315-r.(-2)r . x15-r
We have x15-3r. = x0 ⇒ 15 = 3r ⇒ r = 5
T = 15C5.315-5.(-2)5 = -15C5 .310 25
∴ The term independent of x is -15C5.310.25

Question (vi).
$$\left(x^{2}-\frac{2}{x^{3}}\right)^{5}$$
Here x → x2 a → $$\frac{-2}{x^{3}}$$ = 5r(x2)5 – r . $$\left(\frac{-2}{x^{3}}\right)^{r}$$= 5r.x10-2r.(-2)r
= 5Cr(-2)r.x10-5r
We have 10 – 5r = 0 ⇒ r = 2
T2+1 = T3 = 5C2(-2)2.x0 = 4. $$\frac { 5.4}{ 2.1 }$$ = 40
∴  The term independent of x is 40

Question (vii).
$$\left(x-\frac{1}{x^{2}}\right)^{21}$$
Here x →x and a → $$\frac{-1}{x^{2}}$$ and n= 21
Tr+1 = 21Cr.(x)21-r. $$\left(\frac{-1}{x^{2}}\right)^{r}$$
= 21Cr.x21-3r.(-1)r
We have x0= x21-3r ⇒21 = 3r ⇒ r = 7
∴ T7+1 = T8 = 21C7 (-1)7.x0 = -21C7
∴ The term independent of x is -21C7

Question (viii).
$$\left( \sqrt { 2 } \frac { 2 }{ { x }^{ 2 } } \right)$$<sup>20</sup>
