Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) Both 1 and 2 are true

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Since, \((1+x)^n=C_0+C_1 x+C_2 x^2+C_3 x^3+\ldots \ldots+C_n x^n\) On putting \(x=1\) and \(x=-1\) respectively, we get \(\begin{aligned} 2^n & =C_0+C_1+C_2+C_3+\ldots \ldots+C_n \\ 0 & =C_0-C_1+C_2-C_3+\ldots \ldots+(-1)^n C_n \end{aligned}\) and…
