 Hello and welcome to the section. I'm Priyanka and this question says write the general term in the expansion of x square minus yx raised to the power 12 where x is not equal to 0. Here we need to write down the general term of this expansion. So let us proceed on with our solution. We know that the general term of r plus one-eth term is equal to ncr a raised to the power n minus r b raised to the power r. Now here we are given the expression that is x square minus yx raised to the power 12. First of all, let us convert it and write it down as x square plus minus yx raised to the power 12. Now here if you compare it with the general term here a is equal to x square b is equal to minus yx and c is n is equal to 12. Now on substituting the values of a, b and n in the given formula we have tr plus 1 is equal to 12cr a is x square raised to the power 12 minus r and b here b is minus yx raised to the power r. Now if you open it, we have 12cr x raised to the power 24 minus 2r minus yx raised to the power r. Which can be written as minus 1 raised to the power r, here negative sign is taken before 12cr x raised to the power 24 minus 2r multiplied by y raised to the power r x raised to the power r. Now here we have the same basis. So we have minus 1 raised to the power r 12cr x raised to the power 24 minus r it can be written as minus 2r plus r can be written as minus r y raised to the power r. Which becomes the answer of our solution that is minus 1 raised to the power r 12cr x raised to the power 24 minus r y raised to the power r. This is the general term of the given expression. This completes the session. I hope you enjoyed the session. Take care.
