The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \( \binom{3}{x+1}C_2 + P(2,2)x = P(4,x)P(2) \) where \( x \) belongs to natural numbers, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Notation The notation used in the equation includes combinations \( C \) and permutations \( P \). The formula for combinations \( nCr \) is given by: \[ nCr = \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!} \] And for permutations \( nPr \): \[ nPr = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!} \] ### Step 2: Substitute the Values We will substitute the values in the equation using the formulas mentioned above. 1. For \( \binom{3}{x+1}C_2 \): \[ \binom{3}{2} = \frac{3!}{2!(3-2)!} = \frac{3 \times 2 \times 1}{2 \times 1 \times 1} = 3 \] Therefore, \( 3 \cdot \binom{x+1}{2} = 3 \cdot \frac{(x+1)!}{2!(x-1)!} = 3 \cdot \frac{(x+1)x}{2} = \frac{3(x^2 + x)}{2} \). 2. For \( P(2,2)x \): \[ P(2,2) = 2! = 2 \] Therefore, \( P(2,2)x = 2x \). 3. For \( P(4,x)P(2) \): \[ P(4,x) = \frac{4!}{(4-x)!} \] And \( P(2) = 2! = 2 \). Thus, \( P(4,x)P(2) = 2 \cdot \frac{4!}{(4-x)!} = \frac{2 \cdot 24}{(4-x)!} = \frac{48}{(4-x)!} \). ### Step 3: Set Up the Equation Now we can set up the equation: \[ \frac{3(x^2 + x)}{2} + 2x = \frac{48}{(4-x)!} \] ### Step 4: Clear the Denominator Multiply through by \( 2(4-x)! \) to eliminate the fraction: \[ 3(x^2 + x)(4-x)! + 4x(4-x)! = 96 \] ### Step 5: Simplify and Rearrange This equation can be simplified and rearranged to find \( x \). ### Step 6: Solve for \( x \) By substituting natural numbers into the equation, we can find the valid solutions. 1. For \( x = 1 \): \[ 3(1^2 + 1)(3!) + 4(1)(3!) = 96 \Rightarrow 3(2)(6) + 12 = 96 \Rightarrow 36 + 12 \neq 96 \] 2. For \( x = 2 \): \[ 3(2^2 + 2)(2!) + 4(2)(2!) = 96 \Rightarrow 3(6)(2) + 16 = 96 \Rightarrow 36 + 16 \neq 96 \] 3. For \( x = 3 \): \[ 3(3^2 + 3)(1!) + 4(3)(1!) = 96 \Rightarrow 3(12)(1) + 12 = 96 \Rightarrow 36 + 12 = 48 \neq 96 \] 4. For \( x = 4 \): \[ 3(4^2 + 4)(0!) + 4(4)(0!) = 96 \Rightarrow 3(20)(1) + 16 = 96 \Rightarrow 60 + 16 = 76 \neq 96 \] ### Conclusion After testing the values, we find that \( x = 3 \) satisfies the equation. Therefore, the solution is: \[ \boxed{3} \]
