Find the middle term inn (i) ((2y^(2))/(3)+(3)/(2y^(2)))^(9),y ne0 (ii) (4x^(2)+9y^(2)+12xy)^(n) |
|
Answer» Solution :(i) Number of terms in the expansion is (9+1)=10 (EVEN) `therefore` There are two middle terms given by `T_((9+1)/(2)) annd T_((9+3)/(2))` i.e., `T_(5) and T_(6)` We know that `T_(r+1)=.^(n)C_(r)x^(n-r)a^(r)` `thereforeT_(5)=T_(4+1)=.^(9)C_(4)((2y^(2))/(3))^(5)((3)/(2y^(2)))^(4)` `=(9xx8xx7xx6)/(4xx3xx2xx1)xx(2^(5))/(3^(5))y^(10).(3^(4))/(2^(4)y^(8))` `=(9xx8xx7xx6)/(4xx3xx2xx1)xx(2)/(3)xxy^(2)` `=84y^(2)`. and `T_(6)=T_(5+1)=.^(9)C_(5)((2y^(2))/(3))^(4)((3)/(2y^(2)))^(5)` `=(9xx8xx7xx6)/(4xx3xx2xx1)xx(2^(4))/(3^(4))xx(3^(5))/(2^(5))xx(1)/(y^(2))` `=(9xx8xx7xx6)/(4xx3xx2xx1)xx(3)/(2)xx(1)/(y^(2))` `=(189)/(y^(2))` (ii) `(4x^(2)+9y^(2)+12xy)^(n)` Since `4x^(2)+9y^(2)+12xy=(2x+3y)^(2)`, therefore `(4x^(2)+9y^(2)+12xy)^(n)=(2x+3y)^(2n)` Hence, there is only one middle TER namely `((2n)/(2)+1)^(th)` term i.e., `(n+1)^(th)` term. `therefore` The required middle term `=T_(n+1)=.^(2n)C_(n)(2x)^(2n-n)(3y)^(n)` . . . `=.^(2n)C_(n)(2x)^(n)(3y)^(n)` `=(lfloor(2n))/(lfloor(n)lfloor(n)).2^(n).3^(n)x^(n).y^(n)` hence, the middle term int he expansion of `(4x^(2)+9^(y)+12xy)^(n)` is `(lfloor(2n))/(floor(n)floor(n)).2^(n).3^(n)x^(n).y^(n)` |

Answer» `or 2 tan^(-1)x in (-(pi)/(2),(pi)/(2))` `or tan^(-1)x in (-(pi)/(4),(pi)/(4))` `ortan^(-1)x in (-1,1)` b. `f(x)=sin^(-1)(sinx) and g(x)=sin(sin^(-1)x)` `f(x)` is DEFINED if `sin x in [-1,1]` which is true for all `x in R`. But g(x) is defined for only `x in [-1,1]`. Hence, `f(x)` and g(x) are identical if `x in [-1,1]`. C.`f(x)=log_(x^(2))25 and g(x)=log_(x)5` `f(x)` is defined ` AA x in R - {0,1} and g(x) ` is defined for `(0, oo) -{1}.` Hence, `f(x)`and g(x) are identical if `x in (0,1) cup (1,oo).` d.`f(x)=sec^(-1)x+"cosec"^(-1)x,g(x)=sin^(-1)x+cos^(-1)x` `f(x)` has domain `R -(-1,1) and g(x)` has domain [-1, 1] Hence, both the functions are identical only if `x=-1,1.` |

|
Answer» `={([(1)^(1)]^(n)",",x gt 0),([(-1)^(-1)]^(n) ",",x lt 0):}={(1",",x gt 0),(-1",",x lt 0):}.` Hence, `f(x)` is an ODD function. b. `f(x)=(x)/(e^(x)-1)+(x)/(2)+1` `or f(-x)=(-x)/(e^(-x)-1)-(x)/(2)+1` `=(xe^(x))/(e^(x)-1)-(x)/(2)+1` `=(xe^(x)-x+x)/(e^(x)-1)-(x)/(2)+1` `=x+(x)/(e^(x)-1)-(x)/(2)+1` `=(x)/(e^(x)-1)+(x)/(2)+1` `=f(x)` C.`f(x)={(0",","if x is rational"),(1",","if x is irrational"):}` `f(-x)={(0",","if -x is rational"),(1",","if -x is irrational"):}` `={(0",","if x is rational"),(1",","if x is irrational"):}` `=f(x)` d. `f(x)=max [tanx, cotx}` From the graph of function, it can be verified that `f(x)` is neither odd nor even. ALSO, `f(x+pi)=max {TAN(x+pi),cot(x+pi)` `=max {tanx, cot x}` Hence, `f(x)` is periodic with period `pi`. |
