The correct option is
D 12C3 + 3 13C3 + 14C4(1−x+2x2)12
=(1+x(2x−1))12
=12C0112+12C1111(x(2x−1))1+12C2110(x(2x−1))2+12C319(x(2x−1))3+...+12C12112(x(2x−1))12
Coefficient of x4=0 in second and third term
Third term =12C2110(x(2x−1))2=12C2x2(4x2−4x+1)=12C2(4x4−4x3+x2)
Thus,coefficient of x4=4 12C2
Fourth term =12C3(8x6−x3−12x5+6x4) (on expansion)
∴ Coefficient of x4 is 6 12C3
Fifth term =12C4x4[4C0(2x)4+4C1(2x)3(−1)+4C2(2x)2(−1)2+4C3(2x)(−1)3+4C4(−1)4] (on expansion)
=12C4[4C016x8−4C18x7+4C24x6+4C32x5+x4]
∴ Coefficient of x4 is 12C4
Sixth term =12C5((x(2x−1))5) has no x4 term when multiplied byx5
Using the formula n+1Cr=nCr+nCr−1
Adding all the coefficients of x4=412C2+612C3+12C4
=4(12C2+12C3)+212C3+12C4 (by rearranging)
=4(13C3)+12C3+(12C4+12C3)
=413C3+12C3+13C4
=313C3+(13C3+13C4)+12C3
=3 13C3+14C4+12C3
