Solution

The correct option is A 5
(a+b)n=nC0an+nC1a1(b)n1+nC2a2(b)n2+........+nCn(b)n

(ab)n=nC0annC1a1(b)n1+nC2a2(b)n2+........+nCn(b)n(1)n

Hence
(x+x)10=10C0x10+10C1x1(x)9+10C2x2(x)8+........+10C10(x)10(1)

(xx)10=10C0x1010C1x1(x)9+10C2x2(x)8+........+10C10(x)10(2)
Adding eq (1) and (2)

(x+x)10+(xx)10=2[10C0x10+10C2x2(x)8+10C4x4(x)6+10C8x8(x)2+10C10(x)10]

(x+x)10+(xx)10=2[10C0x10+10C2x6+10C4x7+10C8x9+10C10x5]

Hence the degree is 10.
