Detailed Solution

Given  expansion is  (x2+2x)15 

 We have general term in the expansion (x+a)n

 

 

(Tr+1=nCrxnr(a)rbe the expansion of (x+a)n)  

 

General term  Tr+1=15Cr(x2)15r(2x)r

 

Tr+1=15Cr(x)302r(2)r(x1)r

 

       Tr+1=15Crx303r2r

 

Compare x303r  with x15

 

x303r=x15

 

This contains x15  if 303r=15  i.e. if r=5

 

   Coefficient of x15 =15C525=α  (say)

 

Also, Tr+1  is void of x  if x303r=x0

 

( the constant term in the expansion compare with x0 )

 

303r=0  i.e. if r=10

 

  Constant term =15C10210=b  (say)

 

Hence, the required ratio =ab= 15C525 15C10210

 

                                               =125=132 .                 (15C5=15C10)
