Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\begin{aligned} & (1+x)^{n+4} \\ & { }^{n+4} C_4,{ }^{n+4} C_5,{ }^{n+4} C_6, \rightarrow \text { A.P. } \\ & \Rightarrow 2 \times { }^{n+4} C_5={ }^{n+4} C_4+{ }^{n+4} C_6 \\ & \Rightarrow 4 \times{ }^{n+4} C_5=\left({ }^{n+4} C_4+{ }^{n+4} C_5\right)+\left({ }^{n+4} C_5+{…
