QJEEM16Ma30f9: JEE Main 2016 Mathematics - Class 11 JEEM16Ma30f9 Solution: If    n + 2 C 6 n − 2 P 2 = 11, then n satisfies the…

If    n+2C6n−2P2 = 11, then n satisfies the equation :

Multiple Choice Options

  • A n2 + 3n − 108 = 0
  • B n2 + 5n − 84 = 0
  • C n2 + 2n − 80 = 0
  • D n2 + n − 110 = 0

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

n+2C6n−2P2=11

⇒   (n+2)!6!(n−4)!=11.(n−2)!(n−4)!

⇒   (n + 2)!  =  11.6! (n − 2)!

⇒   (n + 2) (n + 1) n (n − 1)   =   11.6!

⇒   (n + 2) (n + 1) n (n − 1) = 11 . 6 . 5 . 4 . 3 . 2 . 1

⇒   (n + 2) (n + 1) n (n − 1)   =  11 . 10 . 9 . 8

∴   n = 9

This value of n satisfy the equation,

n2 + 3n − 108 = 0
