The term independent of x in the expansion of $$\left(3x^{3} - \frac{4}{x}\right)^8$$
letΒ $$(r+1)^{th}$$ term be the independent of x which is given by bio nominal theoremΒ
$$T_{r+1}$$ = 8$$c_{r}$$ $$\times$$Β Β $$a^{(8-r)}$$Β $$\times$$ $$b^{r}$$Β
here we have a = 3$$x^{3}$$ and b = -4\xΒ
put the value we getΒ
$$T_{r+1}$$ = 8$$c_{r}$$ $$\times$$Β Β (3$$x^{3}$$)^(8-r)Β $$\times$$Β (-4\x)^r
$$T_{r+1}$$ = 8$$c_{r}$$ $$\times$$ (3)^(8-r)($$x^{3}$$)^(8-r) $$\times$$ (-4)^r(x)^(-r)
$$T_{r+1}$$ = 8$$c_{r}$$ $$\times$$ (3)^(8-r)($$x^{24-3r}$$) $$\times$$ (-4)^r(x)^(-r)
sinceΒ the term is independent of x, we haveΒ
24 - 4r = 0
rΒ =Β 6Β
so the (r+1) = 7 term is independent so we can say thatΒ
$$T_{7}$$ =Β 8$$c_{6}$$ $$\times$$Β $$3^{3-1}$$Β $$\times$$ (-4)^2(6-1)
$$T_{7}$$ = 8Β $$\times$$ 7Β $$\times$$Β Β $$3^{2}$$Β $$\times$$Β $$2^{11}$$
$$T_{7}$$ =Β $$2^{14}$$Β $$\times$$ 7 $$\times$$ $$3^{2}$$ Β AnswerΒ
