MCQ
If (1 + ax)n = 1 + 8x + 24x2 + .... then a × n is:
    • A
      8
    • B
      12
    • C
      16
    • D
      24

    Answer

    1. 8

    Solution:

    (1 + ax)n = 1 + 8x + 24x2 + ..........

    ⇒ nC0​ + nC1​(ax) + nC2​.(ax)2 + ...... = 1 + 8x + 24ax2 ..........

    ⇒ 1 + (na)x + nC2​.(ax)2 + ...... = 1 + 8x + 24ax2 ..........

    Comparing coefficient of x in R.H.S to that in L.H.S.Thus n × a = 8
