Solution
The total number of terms in the expansion of (x + a)100 + (x – a)100 after simplification is 51.
Explanation:
Number of terms in the expansion of (x + a)100 = 101
Number of terms in the expansion of (x – a)100 = 101
Now 50 terms of expansion will cancel out with negative 50 terms of (x – a)100
So, the remaining 51 terms of first expansion will be added to 51 terms of other
Therefore, the number of terms = 51
