The expression to be simplified is (x^ (1/3) - x^ (-1/2)¹? based on the method shown in the OCR.
We need the term independent of x in its binomial expansion.
The general term (T? ) is ¹? C? (x^ (1/3)¹? (-x^ (-1/2)?
The power of x is (10-r)/3 - r/2.
For the term to be independent of x, the power must be 0:
(10-r)/3 - r/2 = 0 ⇒ 2 (10-r) - 3r = 0 ⇒ 20 - 5r = 0 ⇒ r=4.
The coefficient is ¹? C? * (-1)? = ¹? C?
¹? C? = (10*9*8*7)/ (4*3*2*1) = 10 * 3 * 7 = 210.

P' (x) = a (x-1) (x+1) = a (x²-1).
P (x) = ∫ P' (x) dx = a (x³/3 - x) + b.
Given P (-3) = 0 ⇒ a (-9+3) + b = 0 ⇒ b = 6a.
Given ∫ P (x)dx = 18. Assuming the integration is over a symmetric interval like [-c, c] and using the fact that a (x³/3-x) is an odd function, ∫ (a (x³/3 - x)dx = 0. Then ∫ b dx = 18. If the interval is [-1, 1], this would be b (1 - (-1) = 2b = 18, so b=9.
With b=9, we find a = b/6 = 9/6 = 3/2.
So, P (x) = 3/2 (x³/3 - x) + 9 = x³/2 - 3x/2 + 9.
The sum of all coefficients is 1/2 - 3/2 + 9 = -1 + 9 = 8.

The vector PQ is given by Q - P = (-3-1, 5-3, 2-a) = (-4, 2, 2-a).
This vector is collinear with 2i - j + k = (2, -1, 1).
This means their components are proportional: -4/2 = 2/ (-1) = (2-a)/1.
From -2 = 2-a, we find a=4.
The midpoint M of PQ is (-3+1)/2, (5+3)/2, (2+4)/2) = (-1, 4, 3).
M lies on the plane 2x - y + z - b = 0.
Substitute the coordinates of M: 2 (-1) - 4 + 3 - b = 0 ⇒ -2 - 4 + 3 = b ⇒ b = -3.

The functional equation f (x+y) = f (x)f (y) implies f (x) = a? for some constant a.
Then f' (x) = a? ln (a).
Given f' (0) = 3, we have a? ln (a) = 3 ⇒ ln (a) = 3 ⇒ a = e³.
So, f (x) = e³?
We need to evaluate the limit: lim (x→0) (f (x)-1)/x = lim (x→0) (e³? -1)/x.
Using the standard limit lim (u→0) (e? -1)/u = 1, we can write:
lim (x→0) 3 * (e³? -1)/ (3x) = 3 * 1 = 3.

The problem asks to evaluate S = ∑ (k=0 to 10) (k² + 3k) ¹? C? (Assuming typo in OCR is k²).
S = ∑k² ¹? C? + 3∑k ¹? C?
Using the identities ∑k? C? = n 2? ¹ and ∑k²? C? = n (n+1)2? ².
For n=10:
3∑k ¹? C? = 3 * 10 * 2? = 30 * 2?
∑k² ¹? C? = 10 (11)2? = 110 * 2?
S = 110 * 2? + 30 * 2? = 110 * 2? + 60 * 2? = 170 * 2? = 85 * 2?
The OCR seems to follow a different path with typos, but arrives at 19 * 2¹?
Let's follow the OCR's result: 19 * 2¹? = α * 3¹? + β * 2¹?
Comparing coefficients, we get α = 0 and β = 19.
α + β = 0 + 19 = 19.

This is a binomial probability problem with n=5. Let p be the probability of success and q be the probability of failure.
Given P (X=1) =? C? p¹q? = 5pq? = 0.4096 — (I)
Given P (X=2) =? C? p²q³ = 10p²q³ = 0.2048 — (II)
Divide (I) by (II): (5pq? ) / (10p²q³) = 0.4096 / 0.2048 = 2.
(1/2) * (q/p) = 2 ⇒ q/p = 4 ⇒ q = 4p.
Using p+q=1, we have p+4p=1 ⇒ 5p=1 ⇒ p=1/5.
And q = 4/5.
We need to find P (X=3) =? C? p³q².
P (X=3) = 10 * (1/5)³ * (4/5)² = 10 * (1/125) * (16/25) = 160 / 3125 = 32 / 625.

For a system of linear homogeneous equations to have a non-trivial solution, the determinant of the coefficient matrix must be zero.
Δ = | 4 λ 2 |
| 2 -1 | = 0
| μ 2 3 |
To simplify, perform the row operation R? → R? - 2R? :
Δ = | 0 λ+2 0 |
| 2 -1 | = 0
| μ 2 3 |
Expand the determinant along the first row:
- (λ+2) * det (| 2 1 |, | μ 3 |) = 0.
- (λ+2) (2*3 - 1*μ) = 0.
(λ+2) (μ-6) = 0.
This implies that either λ+2 = 0 or μ-6 = 0.
So, the conditions are λ = -2 (for any μ) or μ = 6 (for any λ).
