Suppose r=02023r2·Cr2023=2023×α×22022, then the value of α is

Solution

Given,

r=02023r2·Cr2023=2023×α×22022

Now taking L.H.S we get,

r=02023r2·Cr2023=r=12023r2·2023r·Cr-12022

r=02023r2·Cr2023=r=12023r·2023·Cr-12022

r=02023r2·Cr2023=2023r=12023r-1+1·Cr-12022

r=02023r2·Cr2023=2023r=12023r-1·Cr-12022+r=12023Cr-12022

r=02023r2·Cr2023=20232022r=22023Cr-22021+r=12023Cr-12022

r=02023r2·Cr2023=20232022×22021+22022

r=02023r2·Cr2023=2023×220221011+1

r=02023r2·Cr2023=2023×1012×22022

Now on comparing with r=02023r2·Cr2023=2023×α×22022 we get,

α=1012
