Binomial TheoremHard

Question

The sum of the coefficients of all the integral powers of x in the expansion of (1 + 2√x)40 is :

Options

A.340 + 1
B.340 - 1
C.(340 - 1)
D.(340 + 1)

Solution

(1 + 2√x)40 = 40C0 + 40C1 2√x + .....+ 40C40 (2√x)40
(1 - 2√x)40 = 40C0 - 40C1 2√x + ...... + 40C40 (2√x)40
(1 + 2√x)40 + (1 - 2√x)40
= 2[40C0 + 40C2 (2√x)2 + ......+ 40C40 (2√x)40]
Putting x = 1
40C040C2(2)2 +.......+ 40C40 (2)40 =
