The mean of the coefficients of x,x2,…,x7x, x^{2}, \ldots, x^{7} in the binomial expansion of (2+x)9(2+x)^{9} is ___________.

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

We have, binomial coefficient, (2+x)9(2+x)^9

Tr+1=nCr2n−r×xrT_{r+1}={ }^n C_r 2^{n-r} \times x^r

Coefficient of x(T1)=9C1×28x\left(T_1\right)={ }^9 C_1 \times 2^8

Coefficient of x2(T2)=9C2×27x^2\left(T_2\right)={ }^9 C_2 \times 2^7

Coefficient of x3(T3)=9C3×26x^3\left(T_3\right)={ }^9 C_3 \times 2^6

Coefficient of x7(T7)=9C7×22x^7\left(T_7\right)={ }^9 C_7 \times 2^2

 Mean =9C1×28+9C2×27+9C3×26+…+9C7×227\text { Mean }=\frac{{ }^9 C_1 \times 2^8+{ }^9 C_2 \times 2^7+{ }^9 C_3 \times 2^6+\ldots+{ }^9 C_7 \times 2^2}{7}
