JEE Main 2022 · 28 Jun · Shift 2, Mathematics question 4

The term independent of xx in the expansion of (1−x2+3x3)(52x3−15x2)11\left(1-x^2+3x^3\right)\left(\dfrac52x^3-\dfrac1{5x^2}\right)^{11}, x≠0x\ne0 is :

Answer and worked solution

Official answer: B

General term of the bracket: 11Cr(52)11−r(−15)rx33−5r{}^{11}C_r\left(\frac52\right)^{11-r}\left(-\frac15\right)^rx^{33-5r}. Exponents 00 and −3-3 are impossible; −2-2 needs r=7r=7, which pairs with −x2-x^2.

Term. −11C7(52)4(−15)7=330⋅62516⋅78125=33200-{}^{11}C_7\left(\frac52\right)^4\left(-\frac15\right)^7=\dfrac{330\cdot625}{16\cdot78125}=\dfrac{33}{200}.

(B)
