The coefficient of` x^(6)` in the expansion of `(1 + x + x^(2))^(-3)` is

A

6

B

5

C

4

D

3

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d

We have,
`(1 + x + x^(2))^(-3) = ((1 - x^(3))/(1 -x))^(-3)`
`rArr (1 + x + x^(2))^(-3) = (1 - x^(3))(1 -x^(3))^(-3)`
`rArr (1 + x + x^(2))^(-3) = (1 -3x + 3x^(2)- x^(3))(1 + 3x^(3) + 6x^(6) + ...)`
`therefore ` Coefficient of `x^(6)` in `(1 + x + x^(2))^(-3) = 6 - 3 = 3.` .
