    The coefficient of \[{{x}^{1012}}\]in the expansion of \[{{(1+{{x}^{n}}+{{x}^{253}})}^{10}},\] (where \[n\le 22\]is any positive integer), is     JEE Main Online Paper (Held On 19 April 2016)

    A) 1                                             

    B) \[^{10}{{C}_{4}}\]

    C) 4n                                          

    D) \[^{253}{{C}_{4}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Given expansion \[{{(1+{{x}^{n}}+{{x}^{253}})}^{10}}\] Let \[{{x}^{1012}}={{(1)}^{a}}({{x}^{n}})b.{{({{x}^{253}})}^{c}}\] Here a, b, c, n are all +ve integers and \[a\le 10,b\le 10,c\le 4,n\le 22,\]\[a+b+c=10\] Now \[bn+253c=1012\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[bn=253(4-c)\] For \[c<4\]and \[n\le 22;b>10,\]which is not possible. \[\therefore \]\[c=4,b=0,a=6\] \[\therefore \]\[{{x}^{1012}}={{(1)}^{6}}.{{({{x}^{n}})}^{0}}.{{({{x}^{253}})}^{4}}\] Hence the coefficient of \[{{x}^{1012}}\] \[=\frac{10!}{6!0!4!}\]\[{{=}^{10}}{{C}_{4}}\]
