Binomial TheoremHard

Question

If n is even natural and coefficient of xr in the expansion of is 2n, (|x| < 1), then -

Options

A.r ≤ n/2
B.r ≥ (n - 2)/2
C.r ≤ (n + 2)/2
D.r ≥ n

Solution

y = (1 - x)-1 (1 + x)n
y = (1 + x + x2 +... ∞) (1 + x)n
y = (1 + x)n + x(1 + x)n + x2 (1 + x)n + ....
Co-efficient of xr =
nCr + nCr-1 + .... nC0 = 2n
r ≥ n   (As nCn+1) = 0
