A student is allowed to select at most n books from a collection of (2n+1) books. If the total number of ways in which a student selects at least one book is 63. then n equals to -

Answer» `(2n+1)C_1+(2n+1)C_2+...+(2n+1)C_n=63`
`(2n+1)C_0+(2n+1)C_1+...+(2n+1)C_(2n+1)=2^(2n+1)`
`(2n+1)C_0=(2n+1)C_(2n+1)=1`
`(2n+1)C_1=(2n+1)C_(2n)`
`1+1+2S=2^(2n+1)`
`2+2*63=2^(2n+1)`
`128=2^(2n+1)`
`2^7=2^(2n+1)
`2n+1=7`
`2n=6`
`n=3`.
