7.Binomial Theorem
easy

The term independent of $x$ in ${\left( {2x - \frac{1}{{2{x^2}}}} \right)^{12}}$is

A

$-7930$

B

$-495$

C

$495$

D

$7920$

Solution

(d) We have ${(x)^{12 – r}}{\left( {\frac{1}{{{x^2}}}} \right)^r} = {x^0}\,\, \Rightarrow {x^{12 – 3r}} = {x^0} \Rightarrow r = 4$

Hence the required term is $^{12}{C_4}{2^8}{\left( { – \frac{1}{2}} \right)^4} = 7920$.
