Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(3360\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The general term in the expansion of \(\left(2x^2 + \dfrac{1}{x}\right)^{10}\) is given by: \(T_{r+1} = ^{10}C_{r} (2x^2)^{10-r} \left(\dfrac{1}{x}\right)^r\) \(T_{r+1} = ^{10}C_{r} 2^{10-r} x^{20-2r} x^{-r}\) \(T_{r+1} = ^{10}C_{r} 2^{10-r} x^{20-3r}\) For the coefficient of…
