Binomial Theorem And Its Simple Applications Question 55

Question: The term independent of x in $ {{[ \frac{\sqrt{x}}{3}+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{x^{2}} ]}^{10}} $ is

[EAMCET 1984; RPET 2000]

Options:

A) $ \frac{2}{3} $

B) $ \frac{5}{3} $

C) $ \frac{4}{3} $

D) None of these

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

  • Accordingly, $ {{(\sqrt{x})}^{10-r}}{{( \frac{1}{x^{2}} )}^{r}}=x^{0}\Rightarrow r=2 $

Hence the term is $ ^{10}C_2{{( \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} )}^{8}}.,{{(\sqrt{3})}^{2}}=\frac{5}{3} $ .
