        The coefficient of\[{{x}^{n}}\]in expansion of \[(1+x){{(1-x)}^{n}}\]is

    A)  \[(n-1)\]                             

    B)  \[{{(-1)}^{n}}(1-n)\]

    C)  \[{{(-1)}^{n-1}}{{(n-1)}^{2}}\]   

    D)  \[{{(-1)}^{n-1}}n\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    The coefficient of\[{{x}^{n}}\]in the expansion of\[(1+x){{(1-x)}^{n}}\] = coefficient of\[{{x}^{n}}+\]coefficient of\[{{x}^{n-1}}\] \[={{(-1)}^{n}}\frac{n!}{n!10!}+{{(-1)}^{n-1}}\frac{n!}{1!(n-1)!}\] \[={{(-1)}^{n}}\left( \frac{n!}{n!0!}-\frac{n!}{1!(n-1)!} \right)\] \[={{(-1)}^{n}}(1-n)\]
