Find the term independent of x in the expansion of (2x2+1x)9
Tr+1=9Cr(2x2)9−r(1x)r
The term independent of x is the term which has the power of x equals to zero. Consider the power of x in the general term or Tr+1
=X18−2rX−r
=X18−3r
Equating the power of x to zero,
18-3r=0
Or 3r=18
⇒r=6
⇒T6+1=9C6(2x2)9−6(1x)6
⇒T7=9C623
=89C6
