If C0,C1,C2,,Cn denote the binomial coefficients i11 the expansion of (1+x)n then aC0+(a+b)C1+(a+2b)C2++(a+nb)Cn= 

a
(a+nb)2n
b
(2a+nb)2n
c
(a+nb)2n−1
d
(2a+nb)2n−1

detailed solution

Correct option is D

We have,aC0+(a+b)C1+(a+2b)C2+…+(a+nb)Cn=∑r=0n (a+rb)nCr=∑r=0n a⋅nCr+∑r=0n rbnCr=a∑r=0n nCr+b∑r=0n r⋅nCr=a∑r=0n nCr+b∑r=1n r⋅nrn−1r=a∑r=0n nCr+bn∑r=1n n−1=a⋅2n+bn2n−1 ∵∑r=0n nCr=2n,∑r=1n n−1Cr−1=2n−1=(2a+bn)2n−1
