Explanation Given information: The expression is ( a b − 1 ) 20 . Concept used: The binomial expansion of the expression ( x + y ) n can be expressed as, ( x + y ) n = ( n 0 ) x n + ( n 1 ) x n − 1 y + ⋯ ( n 4 ) x n − 4 y 4 + … + ( n n ) y n …… (1) The binomial coefficient ( n r ) can be calculated as, ( n r ) = n ! r ! ( n − r ) ! …… (2) Here, n and r is the nonnegative integers with r ≤ n . Calculation: From equation (1) it can be seen that 5 th term of the expansion ( x + y ) n is ( n 4 ) x n − 4 y 4 . Consider T 5 as the 5 th term of the expansion ( x + y ) n . T 5 = ( n 4 ) x n − 4 y 4 …… (2) The given expression can be rewritten as, ( a b + ( − 1 ) ) 20 Consider a b as x , ( − 1 ) as y and 20 as n in the above equation
