MCQ
The middle term in the expression of ${\left( {x - \frac{1}{x}} \right)^{18}}$ is
  • A
    $^{18}{C_9}$
  • ${ - ^{18}}{C_9}$
  • C
    $^{18}{C_0}$
  • D
    ${ - ^{18}}{C_{10}}$

Answer

Correct option: B.
${ - ^{18}}{C_9}$
b
(b) If $n$ is even.

$\therefore $Middle term is $10^{th}$ term.

==> ${T_{10}} = {}^{18}{C_9}{(x)^9}.\,{\left( { - \frac{1}{x}} \right)^9} = {\rm{ }} - {}^{18}{C_9}$.
