  • Question
  • If 35C n + 7 = 35C 4n - 2, then all the values of n are given by?


  • Options
  • A. 28
  • B. 3, 6
  • C. 3
  • D. 6

  • Correct Answer
  • 3, 6 

    Explanation

    35Cn + 7 = 35C4n - 2
    We know that if nCx = nCy then, Either x = y or x + y = n

    Case 1: x + y = n
    ? n + 7 + 4n - 2 = 35
    ? 5n + 5 = 35
    ? 5n = 30
    ? n = 6

    Case 2: x = y
    ? n + 7 = 4n - 2
    ? 4n - n = 2 + 7
    ? 3n = 9
    ? n = 3
