Detailed Solution

General term of (1+x)n is Tr+1=nCrx

Fifth term of (1+x)n is T5=4.T4

nC4x4=(nC3x3)4(1)

And T4=6T3

nC3x3=6(nC2x2)(2)

from  (1)   nC4nC3=4x3x4n4+14=4xn34=4xx=16n3(3)

from(2)nC3nC2=6x2x3n3+13=6xn23=6xx=18n2(4)

from(3)&(4)16n3=18n28(n2)=9(n3)8n16=9n27n=11

Substitute n=11 in equation(3) we get x=16113=168=2

(x,n)=(2,11)
