10. General term of the expansion (1 + x)2n is
Tr+1 = 2nCr (1)2n-r(x)r
So, co-efficient of xn (i.e. r = n) is 2nCn
Similarly general term of the expansion (1 + x)2n–1 is
Tr+1 = 2n-1Cr (1)2n–1–rxr
And co-efficient of xn i.e. when r = n is 2n-1Cn
Therefore,
= 
= ÷
= *

=
= 2
Thus, co-efficient of in = 2x co-efficient of in

9. The general term of the expansion (x +1)n is
Tr+1 = nCrxn–r1r
i.e. co-efficient of term = nCr
So, co-efficient of term =nC(r–1) – 1 = nCr – 2
Similarly, co-efficient of rth term = nCr – 1
Given that, nCr – 2 :nCr – 1 : nCr = 1 : 3 : 5
We have,

=
=> * =
=> =
=> =
=> 3r – 3 = n – r + 2
=> 3r + r = n + 2 + 3
=> 4r = n + 5 -------------- (1)
And,

=
=> * =
=> =
=> =
=> 5r = 3n – 3r + 3
=> 5r + 3r = 3n + 3
=> 8r = 3n + 3 ----------------------- (2)

8. The general term of the expansion (1 + a)m+n is
Tr+1 = m+nCrar [since, 1m+n-r = 1]
At r = m we have,
Tm+1 = m+nCmam
= (a)m
= am - (1)
Similarly at r = n we have,
Tn+1 = m+nCnan
= (a)n
= an - (2)
Hence from (1) & (2),
Co-efficient of am = Co-efficient of an =
