To solve the problem, we need to show that if the greatest term in the expansion of \( (1 + x)^{2n} \) also has the greatest coefficient, then \( x \) lies between \( \frac{n}{n + 1} \) and \( \frac{n + 1}{n} \). ### Step 1: Identify the General Term The general term \( T_r \) in the expansion of \( (1 + x)^{2n} \) is given by: \[ T_r = \binom{2n}{r} x^r \] where \( r = 0, 1, 2, \ldots, 2n \). ...
