    If the ratio of the 7th term from the beginning to the 7th term from the end in \[{{\left( \sqrt[3]{2}+\frac{1}{\sqrt[3]{3}} \right)}^{n}}\] is \[\frac{1}{6}\] them n equals to

    A) 10

    B) 9

    C) 8

    D) 12

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] Given \[\frac{{{T}_{7}}}{{{T}_{n-7+2}}}=\frac{1}{6}\Rightarrow \frac{{{T}_{7}}}{{{T}_{n-s}}}=\frac{1}{6}\] \[\Rightarrow \frac{^{n}{{C}_{6}}{{\left( \sqrt[3]{2} \right)}^{n-6}}{{\left( \frac{1}{\sqrt[3]{3}} \right)}^{6}}}{^{n}{{C}_{n-6}}{{\left( \sqrt[3]{2} \right)}^{6}}{{\left( \frac{1}{\sqrt[3]{3}} \right)}^{n-6}}}=\frac{1}{6}\] \[\Rightarrow {{2}^{\frac{n-12}{3}}}.\,{{3}^{\frac{n-12}{3}}}=\frac{1}{6}\Rightarrow {{6}^{\frac{n-12}{3}}}={{6}^{-1}}\] \[\therefore \frac{n-12}{3}=-1\Rightarrow n=9\]
