Find the coefficient of `x^3y^4z^5` in the expansion of `(xy+yz+zx)^6`A. 120B. 20C. 30D. 60

Answer» Correct Answer - d
Wehave,
`(xy + zyzx)^(6) = sum_(r + s + t )(6!)/(r!s!t!) (xy)^(r)(yz)^(s)(zx)^(t)`
`= sum_(r + s + t )(6!)/(r!s!t!) x^(r+t)y^(r+s)z^(s+t)`
If the general term in the above expansion contains `x^(3) y^(4) z^(5)`,
then
`r + t = 3 , r + s = 4 and s + t = 5`
Also,` r + s + t = 6`
Solving these equations, we get ` r = 1, s = 3, t = 2`
` therefore ` Coefficent of `x^(3) y^(4) z^(5) = (6!)/(1!3!2!) = (6!)/(2!3!) = 60`
