Problem

In the expansion of (3+ax)5+(6−x)4(3+ax)^5+(6-x)^4, the coefficient of x2x^2 is six times the coefficient of xx.

Find the possible values of the constant aa.

[5]
题目中文翻译

在 (3+ax)5+(6−x)4(3+ax)^5+(6-x)^4 的展开式中,x2x^2 的系数是 xx 的系数的六倍。

求常数 aa 的可能值。

解答

解法一

思路

展开

分别找出两个展开式中的一次项和二次项系数。把同次项相加,再按六倍关系列方程。

答题过程

展开

The coefficients in (3+ax)5(3+ax)^5 are (51)34a=405a\binom51 3^4a=405a for xx and (52)33a2=270a2\binom52 3^3a^2=270a^2 for x2x^2. In (6−x)4(6-x)^4, they are −(41)63=−864-\binom41 6^3=-864 and (42)62=216\binom42 6^2=216, respectively. The condition is

270a2+216=6(405a−864).270a^2+216=6(405a-864).

Dividing the rearranged equation by 270270 gives a2−9a+20=(a−4)(a−5)=0a^2-9a+20=(a-4)(a-5)=0. Hence a=4a=4 or a=5a=5.
