    The coefficient of \[{{x}^{100}}\] in the expansion of \[\sum\limits_{j=0}^{200}{{{(1+x)}^{j}}}\] is:

    A) \[\left( \begin{align}   & 200 \\  & 100 \\ \end{align} \right)\]

    B) \[\left( \begin{align}   & 201 \\  & 102 \\ \end{align} \right)\]

    C) \[\left( \begin{align}   & 200 \\  & 101 \\ \end{align} \right)\]

    D) \[\left( \begin{align}   & 201 \\  & 100 \\ \end{align} \right)\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a]  \[{{(1+x)}^{j}}=1+{{\,}^{j}}{{C}_{1}}x+{{\,}^{j}}{{C}_{2}}{{x}^{2}}+{{\,}^{j}}{{C}_{3}}{{x}^{3}}+.....\] \[{{+}^{j}}{{C}_{100}}{{x}^{100}}+......+{{\,}^{j}}{{C}_{200}}{{x}^{200}}\] \[\therefore \] Coefficient of \[{{x}^{100}}\] in the expansion of \[{{(1+x)}^{j}}={{\,}^{j}}{{C}_{100}}\] Coefficient of \[{{x}^{100}}\] in the expansion of \[\sum\limits_{j=0}^{200}{{{(1+x)}^{j}}}\] will be equal to \[\sum\limits_{j=100}^{200}{^{j}{{C}_{100}}}\] \[={{\,}^{100}}{{C}_{100}}+{{\,}^{101}}{{C}_{100}}+{{\,}^{102}}{{C}_{100}}+....+{{\,}^{200}}{{C}_{100}}\] \[={{\,}^{200}}{{C}_{100}}=\left( \begin{matrix}    200  \\    100  \\ \end{matrix} \right)\]
