Mark the correct alternative in the following :
If in the expansion of
, the coefficient of rth and (r +4) th terms are equal, then r is equal to
Given:

In rth term; k=r-1
& in (r+4)th term ; k=r+3
So, the terms are;
& ![]()
Coefficients of both terms are equal:
![]()
![]()

![]()
]
![]()
So, r= (21-r);
(r+1)= (20-r);
(r+2)= (19-r);
(r+3)= (18-r)
We get;
r=9
