Answer:

a) 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Expanding the polynomial using the formula:

$(x+y)^n=\sum_{k=0}^n \binom{n}{k} x^{n-k} y^k $

Also

$\binom{n}{k}=\frac{n!}{(n-k)!k!}$

I think you mean 210x^6y^4

We can deduce that this term will be located somewhere in the middle. So I will calculate k= 5; k=6 \text{ and } k =7.

For k=5

$\binom{10}{5} (y)^{10-5} (x)^{5}=\frac{10!}{(10-5)! 5!}(y)^{5} (x)^{5}= \frac{10 \cdot 9 \cdot 8 \cdot 7 \cdot 6 \cdot 5! }{5! \cdot 5 \cdot 4 \cdot 3 \cdot 2 \cdot 1 } \\ =\frac{30240}{120} =252 x^{5} y^{5}$

Note that we actually don't need to do all this process. There's no necessity to calculate the binomial, just x^{n-k} y^k

For k=6

$\binom{10}{6} \left(y\right)^{10-6} \left(x\right)^{6}=\frac{10!}{(10-6)! 6!}\left(y\right)^{4} \left(x\right)^{6}=210 x^{6} y^{4}$

<span>(3/4)*x-6 = 15 // - 15

(3/4)*x-15-6 = 0

3/4*x-21 = 0 // + 21

3/4*x = 21 // : 3/4

x = 21/3/4

x = 28</span>
