Using binomial theorem evaluate each of the following:

Question 6. Using Binomial Theorem, evaluate (96) 3

Solution :
Given: 96 3

96 = 100 - 4

Using Binomial Theorem,

(96) 3 = (100−4) 3 = 3 C 0 (100) 3 3 C 1 (100) 2 (4) + 3 C 2 (100)(4) 2 3 C 3 (4) 3

=1000000−3(10000)(4)+3(100)(16)−64

=1000000−120000+4800−64

=884736

Question 7 .Using Binomial Theorem, evaluate (102) 5

Solution :
Given: (102) 5

Using Binomial Theorem,

= (102) 5 = (100+2) 5 = 5 C 0 (100) 5 + 5 C 1 (100) 4 (2) + 5 C 2 (100) 3 (2) 2 + 5 C 3 (100) 2 (2) 3 + 5 C 4 (100)(2) 4 + 5 C 5 (2) 5

=10000000000+5(100000000)(2)+10(1000000)(4)+10(10000)(8)+5(100)(16)+32

= 10000000000 + 1000000000 + 40000000 + 800000 + 8000 + 32

= 11040808032

Question 8. Using Binomial Theorem, evaluate (101) 4

Solution :
Given: (101) 4

Using Binomial Theorem,

101 = 100+1



(101) 4 =(100+1) 4

= 4 C 0 (100) 4 + 4 C 1 (100) 3 (1)+ 4 C 2 (100) 2 (1) 2 + 4 C 3 ( 100)(1) 3 + 4 C 4 (1) 4

=100000000+4(1000000)+6(10000)+4(100)+1

= 100000000 + 4000000 + 60000 + 400 + 1

= 104060401

9. Using Binomial Theorem, evaluate (99) 5

Solution :
Given: (99) 5

Using Binomial Theorem,

(99) 5 =(100−1) 5

= 5 C 0 (100) 5 5 C 1 (100) 4 (1)+ 5 C 2 (100) 3 (1) 2 5 C 3 (100) 2 (1) 3 + 5 C 4 (100)(1) 4 5 C 5 (1) 5

=10000000000−5(100000000)−10(1000000)−10(10000)+5(100)−1=

= 10000000000 – 500000000 + 10000000 – 100000 + 500 – 1

= 9509900499

Question 10. Using Binomial Theorem, indicate which number is larger (1.1) 10000 or 1000.

Solution :
Given: (1.1) 10000 or 1000.

Using Binomial Theorem,

By splitting 1.1 and then applying Binomial Theorem, the first few terms of (1.1)10000

be obtained as

(1.1) 10000 =(1+0.1) 10000

= 10000 C 0 + 10000 C 1 (1.1) + Other positive terms

=1+10000×1.1+Other positive terms

=1+11000+Other positive terms>1000

Hence, (1.1)10000>1000

Question 11. Find (a + b) 4 – (a – b) 4 . Hence, evaluate (√3 + √2) 4 - (√3 - √2) 4.

Solution :
Given: (a + b) 4 – (a – b) 4

Using Binomial Theorem,

Question 12. Find (x + 1) 4 – (x – 1) 4 Hence or otherwise evaluate (√ 2 + 1 ) 6 + (6 -1 ) 6

Solution :
Given: (x + 1) 4 – (x – 1) 4

Using Binomial Theorem,

Question 13. Show that 9 n+1 is divisible by 64 whenever n is a positive integer.

Solution :
Given:   9 n+1 is divisible by 64

In order to show that 9 n+1 −8n−9 is divisible by 64, it has to be prove that, 9 n+1 −8n−9=64k

, where k is some natural number.
