Question

Coefficient of x79 in the expansion of (x + x2 + x4)20 is equal to -

Options

A.0
B.150x319
C.1
D.320

Solution

Let (x + x2 + x4)20 = a0 + a1x + .... + a79x79 + a80x80
Replace x by

⇒  (1 + x2 + x3)20 = a80 + a79x + ....... + a0x80
Diff. w.r.t. x
(2x + 3x2).20(1 + x2 + x3)19 = a79 + 2a78x + .....
Put x = 0
a79 = 0
