    If the sum of the coefficients in the expansion of\[{{({{a}^{2}}{{x}^{2}}-6ax+11)}^{10}},\]where a is constant, is 1024, then the value of a is

    A)  5                                            

    B)  1

    C)  2                            

    D)         3

    E)  4

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    The sum of coefficient in the expansion of \[{{({{a}^{2}}{{x}^{2}}-6ax+11)}^{10}}=1024\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{({{a}^{2}}.1+6a.1+11)}^{10}}={{2}^{10}}\] (\[\because \]sum of coefficient in\[{{(x+y)}^{n}}\]is\[{{(1+1)}^{n}}={{2}^{n}}\]) \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{a}^{2}}-6a+11=2\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{a}^{2}}-6a+9=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[a=3,3\]
