If the coefficients of x2 and x3 in the expansion of (3 + ax)9 be same, then the value of 'a' is

  • 3/7

  • 7/3

  • 7/9

  • 9/7


D.

9/7

Since,

3 + ax9 = C0939 + C1938ax + C2937ax2 + C3936ax3 + ...

Since, coefficient of x2 = coefficient of x3

                C2937a2 = C2936a3                C29C39 . 3 = a 9 × 82 × 19 × 8 × 73 × 2 × 3 = a                          a = 97
