$8$
The term independent of $x$ in ${\left( {2x - \frac{1}{{2{x^2}}}} \right)^{12}}$is
If the coefficients of ${p^{th}}$, ${(p + 1)^{th}}$ and ${(p + 2)^{th}}$ terms in the expansion of ${(1 + x)^n}$ are in $A.P.$, then
In the expansion of ${(1 + x)^n}$ the coefficient of $p^{th}$ and ${(p + 1)^{th}}$ terms are respectively $p$ and $q$. Then $p + q = $
Coefficient of $x$ in the expansion of ${\left( {{x^2} + \frac{a}{x}} \right)^5}$ is
If the coefficients of ${T_r},\,{T_{r + 1}},\,{T_{r + 2}}$ terms of ${(1 + x)^{14}}$ are in $A.P.$, then $r =$
