Solution
The correct option is D12 Given, The sum of all binomial coefficients is 256 So, 2n=256=28 and n=8 The term with the greatest binomial coefficient is the middle term that is T5 T5=48C(3−x4)4(35x4)4 and third term, T3=28C(3−x4)6(35x4)2 Given, 4(48C(3−x4)4(35x4)4)−(28C(3−x4)6(35x4)2)2=21.8=168 ⇒280.34x−8.72.3x=168 ⇒280.32x32x−8.72.3x=168 Let, 32x=y So, 10y2−28y−6=0 ⇒y=3 or −15 It cannot be negative, so y=3 32x=3
