Find a positive value of m for which the coefficient of `x^2` in the expansion of `(1+x)^m` is 6.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
N/a
`(1+x)^(m)=^(m)C_(0).1+^(m)C_(1).x+^(m)C_(2).x^(2)`
`+......+^(m)C_(m).x^(m)`
According to the problem
`.^(m)C_(2)=6`
`rArr " "(m(m-1))/(2)=6`
`rArr " "(m(m-1)=12 =4.3`
`rArr " "m=4`
