Question
#4 and 5
![EXERCISES 7.2.7. Calculate the following.
2) The coefficient of x4 in (1-x)-².
3) The coefficient of an in (1+x)-4.
4) The coefficient of x-1 in
=
1+x
(1-2x)5
[Hint: Notice that
(1-2x)-5+ (1 - 2r)-5. Work out the coefficient of an in
(1-2x)-5 and in x(1-2x)-5, substitute n = k-1, and add the two coefficients.]
5) The coefficient of rk in 1/(1-¹)", where j and n are fixed positive integers.
[Hint: Think about what conditions will make this coefficient zero.]
