Q1
If the expansion of (x + y)^n contains a term with x^4y^3, what can be inferred about n?
  1. n must be 7.
  2. n must be greater than 7.
  3. n must be less than 7.
  4. n can be any integer.

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If the expansion of (x + y)^n contains a term with x^4y^3, what can be inferred about n?
  • Step 1: Identify the term given in the question, which is x^4y^3.
  • Step 2: Look at the exponents of x and y in the term. The exponent of x is 4 and the exponent of y is 3.
  • Step 3: Add the exponents together: 4 (from x) + 3 (from y) = 7.
  • Step 4: Understand that in the expansion of (x + y)^n, the sum of the exponents in any term must equal n.
  • Step 5: Since the sum of the exponents is 7, we can conclude that n must be 7.
  • Binomial Expansion – Understanding how to expand expressions of the form (x + y)^n and identify the coefficients and terms.
  • Exponents in Terms – Recognizing that the sum of the exponents in a term from the binomial expansion must equal n.
