Using the binomial theorem, the coefficient of x^2 in (2x - 3)^4 is given by 4C2 * (2)^2 * (-3)^2 = 6 * 4 * 9 = 216.

Using the binomial theorem, the coefficient of x^4 in (a + b)^n is given by nCk * a^(n-k) * b^k. Here, n=6, a=x, b=-2, and k=2. Thus, the coefficient is 6C2 * (1)^4 * (-2)^2 = 15 * 4 = 60.

The coefficient of x^3 in (2x - 3)^4 is given by 4C1 * (2)^3 * (-3)^1 = 4 * 8 * (-3) = -96. The coefficient is -108.

Using the binomial theorem, the coefficient of x^5 in (3x - 4)^7 is given by 7C5 * (3)^5 * (-4)^2 = 21 * 243 * 16 = 21 * 3888 = 81588.

Using the binomial theorem, the coefficient of x^4 in (x + 3)^6 is given by 6C4 * (3)^2 = 15 * 9 = 135.

Using the binomial theorem, the coefficient of x^2 in (2x + 5)^4 is given by 4C2 * (2)^2 * (5)^2 = 6 * 4 * 25 = 600.

The coefficient of x^2 in (2x - 5)^5 is given by 5C2 * (2)^2 * (-5)^3 = 10 * 4 * (-125) = -5000.

The coefficient of x^3 in (3x + 2)^5 is given by 5C3 * (3)^3 * (2)^2 = 10 * 27 * 4 = 1080.

The sum of the coefficients in the expansion of (x + 1)^n is given by (1 + 1)^n = 2^n. Here, n=8, so the sum is 2^8 = 256.
