Letα>0,β>0be such thatα3+β2=4. If the maximum value of the term independent ofxin the binomial expansion ofαx19+βx-1610is10k, thenkis equal to

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

 Tr+1=Cr10αx1910-rβx-16r

Tr+1=Cr10α10-rβrx10-r9-r6

Term independent of x Power of x=0

10-r9-r6=0  r=4

T5=C410α6β4

Now Let α3,β2 are two numbers. Clearly both are positive.
