Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a

We have,
s`""^(n)C_(r) (root(13)(a))^(a-1) ((a)/(sqrt(a^(-1))))^(1) = 14 a^(5//2)`
`rArr na^((n+1)/(13)+(3)/(2)) = 14 a^(5//2) rArr n=14`
`therefore (""^(n)C_(3))/(""^(n)C_(2))=(n-2)/(3) = (14-2)/(3) = 4 [because (""^(n)C_(3))/(""^(n)C_(2))=(n-r+1)/(r)]` s
