The correct Answer is:
To find the fourth term of the expression \(\left(\frac{3x}{5} - y\right)^{7}\), we can use the Binomial Theorem, which states that: \[ (a + b)^n = \sum_{k=0}^{n} \binom{n}{k} a^{n-k} b^k \] In this case, we have: - \(a = \frac{3x}{5}\) - \(b = -y\) - \(n = 7\) ### Step 1: Identify the term we need We need to find the fourth term in the expansion. The general term (the \((k+1)^{th}\) term) in the expansion is given by: \[ T_{k+1} = \binom{n}{k} a^{n-k} b^k \] To find the fourth term, we set \(k = 3\) (since we start counting from \(k = 0\)). ### Step 2: Substitute values into the formula Now we substitute \(n = 7\), \(k = 3\), \(a = \frac{3x}{5}\), and \(b = -y\) into the formula: \[ T_{4} = \binom{7}{3} \left(\frac{3x}{5}\right)^{7-3} (-y)^3 \] ### Step 3: Calculate the binomial coefficient Calculate \(\binom{7}{3}\): \[ \binom{7}{3} = \frac{7!}{3!(7-3)!} = \frac{7 \times 6 \times 5}{3 \times 2 \times 1} = 35 \] ### Step 4: Calculate the powers Now, calculate the powers: \[ \left(\frac{3x}{5}\right)^{4} = \frac{(3x)^4}{5^4} = \frac{81x^4}{625} \] And for \((-y)^3\): \[ (-y)^3 = -y^3 \] ### Step 5: Combine all parts Now, we can combine all parts to get the fourth term: \[ T_{4} = 35 \cdot \frac{81x^4}{625} \cdot (-y^3) = -\frac{2835x^4y^3}{625} \] ### Final Answer Thus, the fourth term of \(\left(\frac{3x}{5} - y\right)^{7}\) is: \[ -\frac{2835x^4y^3}{625} \] ---
