(a) (1 + x)n - 1 - nx is divisible by x2
Binomial theorem has some applications in divisibility & remainder problems.

Before we do that, observe that:

Q (a) Prove that 62n - 35n - 1 is divisible by 352
(b) Prove that 97 + 79 is divisible by 64

Q (a) Prove that 62n - 35n - 1 is divisible by 352
Solution:
Thus, 62n - 35n - 1 is divisible by 352 for all n ∈ N

Q (b) Prove that 97 + 79 is divisible by 64
Solution:
We have
∴ 97 + 79 is divisible by 64
Q If n be a positive integer, prove that 32n + 2 − 8n − 9 is divisible by 64.

Q If n be a positive integer, prove that 32n + 2 − 8n − 9 is divisible by 64.
Solution:
Q Prove that 132n + 1 + 1 is divisible by 14
Remark
(a) xn - 1 = (x - 1) (xn - 1 + xn - 2 +...+ 1)
(b) If n is odd, then

xn + 1 = (x + 1) (xn - 1 - xn - 2 + xn - 3 -...+ (-1)n - 1)
Solution:
Method I:
132n+1 + 1 = (14 - 1)2n+1 + 1

= 2n+1C0 142n+1 - 2n+1C1(14)2n + 2n+1C2(14)2n+1 + … + 2n+1C2n 14 - 2n+1C2n+1 + 1
= 14[2n+1C0142n - 2n+1C1142n-1 + … + 2n+1C2n] - 1 + 1
= 14 (integer for all n ∈ N)
Thus, 132n + 1 + 1 is divisible by 14 for all n ∈ N
Solution:
Method II:
Since (2n + 1) is odd. Thus,
132n + 1 + 1 = (13 + 1) [132n - 132n - 1 + 132n - 2 +...+ (-1)2n]
= 14 (Integer for all n ∈ N)
Thus 132n + 1 + 1 is divisible by 14 for all n ∈ N

Solution:
Q If 5353 - 333 is divided by 10, then the remainder

obtained is _____.

obtained is _____.
Ans: 6

obtained is _____.
Solution:
xn - yn = (x - y) (xn-1 + xn-2 y + …… + xyn-2 + yn-1)
i.e., xn - yn is divisible by x - y
5353 - 333 = 5353 - 353 + 353 - 333 + 33 - 33
= (5353 - 353) + (353 - 33) - (333 - 33)
Clearly, 1st bracket is divisible by 50 and the last
one is divisible by 30. So, both are divisible by 10.
353 - 33 = 33 ⋅ 350 - 33 = 33 (350 - 1)
= 33((10 - 1)25 - 1) = 27(10 - 1)25 - 27
= 27(10k - 1) - 27 = 270k - 54
= 270 k - 60 + 6 = 10μ + 6.
Hence, the remainder obtained is 6.
Q Find last digit of (32)32
Or
Find remainder when (32)32 is divided by 10
Solution:
Here, (32)32 = (25)32 = 2160
Also,
and so on
Thus after every fourth power, digit in unit place is repeated
Thus digit at unit place for 2160 = 24 × 40 = (24)40
Therefore, unit place digit is 6

r, r ∈ {1, 2, …, 10} denote binomial coefficients. Then,
the value of
Ans: 646
Solution:
(1 + x)10 = 10C0 + 10C1x + 10C2x2 + … + 10C10x10

Differentiate both sides w.r.t. x,
10(1 + x)9 = 10C1 + 2 ⋅ 10C2x + 310C3x2 + … + 1010C10x9 …(1)
(1 + x)10 = 10C0x10 + 10C1x9 + … + 10C10 …(2)
Coefficient of x9 in 10(1 + x)9 (1 + x)10 is same as
(10C1)2 + 2(10C2)2 + 3(10C3)2 + … + 10(10C10)2
= Coefficient of x9 in 10(1 + x)19 = 10 × 19C9 = X
