The total number of terms which depand on the value of
x in the expansion of ` (x^(2) - 2+ (1)/(x^(2)))^(n)` is

A

` 2n+1`

B

2n

C

` n+ 1`

D

n

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
b
Now , ` (x^(2) - 2+ (1)/(x^(2)))^(n) = (x^(4) - 2x^(2) + 1)^(n))/(x^(2n)) = ((x^(2) - 1)^(2n))/(x^(2n))`
` therefore ` Total number of terms that are depandent of x is equal to
number of terms in the expansin of ` (x^(2) -1)^(2n)` that have
degree of x different from 2n , which is given by
` (2n+1) - 1= 2pi` .
