TS EAMCET · Maths · Binomial Theorem

If \(5|b| < 2|a|\). then the 4 th term in the expansion of \((2 a+5 b)^{-4}\) is

  1. A \({ }^4 C_3 2^5 5^3 a^5 b^3\)
  2. B \(-{ }^6 C_3 \frac{5^3}{2^7} \frac{b^3}{a^7}\)
  3. C \(-{ }^6 C_3 \frac{5^4}{2^8} \frac{b^4}{a^8}\)
  4. D \({ }^4 C_3 2^4 5^4 a^4 b^4\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(-{ }^6 C_3 \frac{5^3}{2^7} \frac{b^3}{a^7}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, binomial can be written as \((2 a)^{-4}\left(1+\frac{5 b}{2 a}\right)^{-4}\), where \(\left|\frac{5 b}{2 a}\right| < 1\) So, 4 th term will be \((2 a)^{-4}\left[\frac{(-4)(-5)(-6)}{3 !}\left(\frac{5 b}{2 a}\right)^3\right]\)…
