Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\begin{aligned} & (1+x)^{101}\left(1-x+x^2\right)^{100} \\ & =(1+x)\left[(1+x)\left(1-x+x^2\right)\right]^{100} \\ & =(1+x)\left(1+x^3\right)^{100}=1\left(1+x^3\right)^{100}+x\left(1+x^3\right)^{100} \\ & \begin{aligned} \therefore \text { Coefficient of } x^{50} \\ =\left\{1…
