Q. If A denotes the sum of all the coefficients in the expansion of (1-3x+10x^2 )^n and B denotes the sum of all the coefficients in the expansion of (1+x^2 )^n, then : (1) A=B^3 (2) 3A=B (3) B=A^3 (4) A=3B

Ans: (1) Solution: Sum of coefficients in the expansion of(1-3x+10x^2 )^n=Athen A=(1-3+10)^n=8^n ( put x=1)and sum of coefficients in the expansion of (1+x^2 )^n=Bthen B=(1+1)^n=2^nA=B^3
