The least positive integer n for which n−1C5+n−1C6<nC7 is

The least positive integer n for which n−1C5+n−1C6

Since $^{m} C_{r - 1} +^{m} C_{r} =^{m + 1} C_{r}$ we can write the given inequality as

$^{n} C_{6} <^{n} C_{7}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{^{n} C_{6}}{^{n} C_{7}} < 1 \Rightarrow \frac{7}{n - 6} < 1 \Rightarrow n > 13$

$∴$ the value of $n$ is 14.
