The correct Answer is:
To solve the given problem step by step, we will break it down into manageable parts. ### Step 1: Understanding the Binomial Expansion Condition We start with the binomial expansion of \( (1 + x)^n \) where the coefficients \( a_4, a_5, a_6 \) are in Arithmetic Progression (AP). The coefficients are given by: \[ a_r = \binom{n}{r} \] Thus, we have: - \( a_4 = \binom{n}{4} \) - \( a_5 = \binom{n}{5} \) - \( a_6 = \binom{n}{6} \) For these to be in AP, the condition is: \[ 2a_5 = a_4 + a_6 \] ### Step 2: Setting Up the Equation Substituting the binomial coefficients into the AP condition, we get: \[ 2 \binom{n}{5} = \binom{n}{4} + \binom{n}{6} \] Using the properties of binomial coefficients, we can express \( \binom{n}{4} \) and \( \binom{n}{6} \) in terms of \( \binom{n}{5} \): \[ \binom{n}{4} = \frac{n-4}{5} \binom{n}{5} \] \[ \binom{n}{6} = \frac{6}{n-5} \binom{n}{5} \] ### Step 3: Simplifying the Equation Substituting these into the AP condition gives: \[ 2 \binom{n}{5} = \frac{n-4}{5} \binom{n}{5} + \frac{6}{n-5} \binom{n}{5} \] Dividing through by \( \binom{n}{5} \) (assuming \( n \geq 6 \)): \[ 2 = \frac{n-4}{5} + \frac{6}{n-5} \] ### Step 4: Finding a Common Denominator Multiplying through by \( 5(n-5) \) to eliminate the denominators: \[ 10(n-5) = (n-4)(n-5) + 30 \] Expanding both sides: \[ 10n - 50 = n^2 - 9n + 20 \] Rearranging gives: \[ n^2 - 19n + 70 = 0 \] ### Step 5: Solving the Quadratic Equation Using the quadratic formula \( n = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \): \[ n = \frac{19 \pm \sqrt{(-19)^2 - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot 70}}{2 \cdot 1} = \frac{19 \pm \sqrt{361 - 280}}{2} = \frac{19 \pm \sqrt{81}}{2} = \frac{19 \pm 9}{2} \] This gives: \[ n = 14 \quad \text{or} \quad n = 5 \] Since \( n < 10 \), we take \( n = 7 \). ### Step 6: Analyzing the Second Binomial Expansion Now consider the second binomial expansion: \[ A = \left(2^{1/3} + 3^{1/4}\right)^{13n} = \left(2^{1/3} + 3^{1/4}\right)^{91} \] The general term \( T_r \) in this expansion is given by: \[ T_r = \binom{91}{r} (2^{1/3})^{91-r} (3^{1/4})^r \] ### Step 7: Finding Rational Terms For \( T_r \) to be rational, the exponent of \( 3 \) must be an integer, which means: \[ \frac{r}{4} \text{ must be an integer} \implies r = 0, 4, 8, \ldots, 88 \] The maximum value of \( r \) that satisfies this condition and is less than or equal to 91 is \( 88 \). ### Final Answer Thus, the value of \( a_m \) is: \[ \boxed{88} \]

To solve the given problem step by step, we will break it down into manageable parts. ### Step 1: Understanding the Binomial Expansion Condition We start with the binomial expansion of \( (1 + x)^n \) where the coefficients \( a_4, a_5, a_6 \) are in Arithmetic Progression (AP). The coefficients are given by: \[ a_r = \binom{n}{r} \] Thus, we have: ...
