The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the 7th term in the binomial expansion of the expression \(\left(\frac{3}{\sqrt[3]{84}} + \sqrt{3} \ln x\right)^9\) and set it equal to 729. Let's break it down step by step. ### Step 1: Identify the general term in the binomial expansion The general term \(T_{r+1}\) in the binomial expansion of \((a + b)^n\) is given by: \[ T_{r+1} = \binom{n}{r} a^{n-r} b^r \] Here, \(n = 9\), \(a = \frac{3}{\sqrt[3]{84}}\), and \(b = \sqrt{3} \ln x\). ### Step 2: Find the 7th term To find the 7th term, we need \(r = 6\) (since \(T_{7} = T_{6+1}\)): \[ T_7 = \binom{9}{6} a^{9-6} b^6 = \binom{9}{6} a^3 b^6 \] ### Step 3: Calculate \(\binom{9}{6}\) Using the formula for combinations: \[ \binom{9}{6} = \binom{9}{3} = \frac{9!}{3!6!} = \frac{9 \times 8 \times 7}{3 \times 2 \times 1} = 84 \] ### Step 4: Substitute \(a\) and \(b\) Now substituting \(a\) and \(b\): \[ T_7 = 84 \left(\frac{3}{\sqrt[3]{84}}\right)^3 \left(\sqrt{3} \ln x\right)^6 \] ### Step 5: Simplify \(a^3\) Calculating \(a^3\): \[ \left(\frac{3}{\sqrt[3]{84}}\right)^3 = \frac{3^3}{\sqrt[3]{84^3}} = \frac{27}{84} \] ### Step 6: Simplify \(b^6\) Calculating \(b^6\): \[ \left(\sqrt{3} \ln x\right)^6 = 3^3 (\ln x)^6 = 27 (\ln x)^6 \] ### Step 7: Combine the terms Now substituting back: \[ T_7 = 84 \cdot \frac{27}{84} \cdot 27 (\ln x)^6 \] The \(84\) cancels out: \[ T_7 = 27 \cdot 27 (\ln x)^6 = 729 (\ln x)^6 \] ### Step 8: Set the equation equal to 729 We are given that \(T_7 = 729\): \[ 729 (\ln x)^6 = 729 \] ### Step 9: Solve for \(\ln x\) Dividing both sides by 729: \[ (\ln x)^6 = 1 \] Taking the sixth root: \[ \ln x = 1 \quad \text{or} \quad \ln x = -1 \] ### Step 10: Solve for \(x\) Exponentiating both sides: 1. If \(\ln x = 1\), then \(x = e^1 = e\). 2. If \(\ln x = -1\), then \(x = e^{-1} = \frac{1}{e}\). Since \(x > 0\), both values are valid. ### Final Answer The possible values of \(x\) are: \[ x = e \quad \text{or} \quad x = \frac{1}{e} \] ---
