The sum of the rational term in the binomial expansion of $\left(\sqrt{2}+3^{1 / 5}\right)^{10}$ is
The sum of the rational term in the binomial expansion of $\left(\sqrt{2}+3^{1 / 5}\right)^{10}$ is
- 41
- 39
- 32
- 30
Solution
Rational terms are $T_{11}, T_1$
$\begin{aligned}
& \mathrm{T}_{11}={ }^{10} \mathrm{C}_{10}\left(3^{1 / 5}\right)^{10}(\sqrt{2})^0=9 \\
& \mathrm{~T}_1={ }^{10} \mathrm{C}_0\left(3^{\frac{1}{5}}\right)^0 \cdot(\sqrt{2})^{10}=32
\end{aligned}$
Sum of rational terms $=41$
