Vedclass · Answer

(B) The general term in the expansion of $(1+x)^n$ is given by $\binom{n}{r} x^r = \frac{n(n-1)...(n-r+1)}{r!} x^r$. For $(1-2x)^{-1/2}$,we have $n = -1/2$ and the term is $\binom{-1/2}{r} (-2x)^r$. The coefficient of ${x^r}$ is $\binom{-1/2}{r} (-2)^r$. $= \frac{(-1/2)(-3/2)(-5/2)...(-(2r-1)/2)}{r!} (-2)^r$. $= \frac{(-1)^r [1 	imes 3 	imes 5 	imes ... 	imes (2r-1)]}{2^r r!} (-2)^r$. $= \frac{(-1)^r [1 	imes 3 	imes 5 	imes ... 	imes (2r-1)]}{2^r r!} (-1)^r 2^r$. $= \frac{1 	imes 3 	imes 5 	imes ... 	imes (2r-1)}{r!}$. Multiplying numerator and denominator by $2 	imes 4 	imes 6 	imes ... 	imes (2r) = 2^r r!$,we get: $= \frac{(1 	imes 3 	imes ... 	imes (2r-1)) 	imes (2 	imes 4 	imes ... 	imes 2r)}{r! 	imes 2^r r!} = \frac{(2r)!}{2^r (r!)^2}$.

The coefficient of ${x^r}$ in the expansion of ${(1 - 2x)^{-1/2}}$ is
