Question
Coefficient of xn - 1 in the expansion of, (x + 3)n + (x + 3)n - 1 (x + 2) + (x + 3)n - 2 (x + 2)2 +..... + (x + 2)n is :
Options
A.n+1C2(3)
B.n-1C2(5)
C.n+1C2(5)
D.nC2(5)
Solution
(x + 3)n + (x + 3)n-1 (x + 2) + ...... + (x + 2)n = (x + 3)n 
= [(x + 3)n+1 - (x + 2)n+1]
Coefficient of xn-1 = n+1Cn-1 (3)2 - n+1Cn-1 × 4
= [(x + 3)n+1 - (x + 2)n+1]Coefficient of xn-1 = n+1Cn-1 (3)2 - n+1Cn-1 × 4
