(D) The general term in the expansion of $(x^4-\frac{1}{x^3})^{15}$ is given by $T_{r+1} = {}^{15}C_r (x^4)^{15-r} (-\frac{1}{x^3})^r$.This simplifies to $T_{r+1} = {}^{15}C_r (-1)^r x^{60-4r} x^{-3r} = {}^{15}C_r (-1)^r x^{60-7r}$.To find the coefficient of $x^{18}$,we set the exponent $60-7r = 18$.$7r = 60 - 18 = 42$,which gives $r = 6$.The coefficient is ${}^{15}C_6 (-1)^6 = {}^{15}C_6 = \frac{15 \times 14 \times 13 \times 12 \times 11 \times 10}{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1} = 5005$.
