Moderate
Question

The value of a99 is equal to

Solution

a0+a1x+a2x2++a99x99+x100=0 has roots 99C0,99C1,99C2,,99C99

 or  a0+a1x+a2x2++a99x99+x100 =x99C0x99C1x99C2x99C99

Now, sum of roots is

    99C0+99C1+99C2++99C99=a99 coefficient of x100

 or  a99=299

Also, sum of product of roots taken two at a time is

a99 coefficient of x100

Question

The value of a98 is 

Solution

a0+a1x+a2x2++a99x99+x100=0 has roots 99C0,99C1,99C2,,99C99

 or  a0+a1x+a2x2++a99x99+x100 =x99C0x99C1x99C2x99C99

Now, sum of roots is

    99C0+99C1+99C2++99C99=a99 coefficient of x100

 or  a99=299

Also, sum of product of roots taken two at a time is

Question

The value of  99C02+ 99C12++ 99C992 is equal to 

Solution

a0+a1x+a2x2++a99x99+x100=0 has roots 99C0,99C1,99C2,,99C99

 or  a0+a1x+a2x2++a99x99+x100 =x99C0x99C1x99C2x99C99
