Problem

It is given that the coefficient of x3x^3 in the expansion of

(2+ax)4(5−ax)(2 + ax)^4(5 - ax)

is 432.

Find the value of the constant aa.

[5]
题目中文翻译

已知

(2+ax)4(5−ax)(2 + ax)^4(5 - ax)

的展开式中 x3x^3 的系数为 432。

求常数 aa 的值。

[5]

解答

解法一

思路

展开

乘积的三次项来自原展开式的三次项乘 55,以及二次项乘 −ax-ax。先分别求这两个系数。

答题过程

展开

The x3x^3 and x2x^2 coefficients of (2+ax)4(2+ax)^4 are (43)2a3=8a3\binom43 2a^3=8a^3 and (42)22a2=24a2\binom42 2^2a^2=24a^2. Thus the coefficient in the product is

5(8a3)−a(24a2)=16a3.5(8a^3)-a(24a^2)=16a^3.

Equating this to 432432 gives a3=27a^3=27, hence a=3a=3.
