Answer:
ans: coefficient of 3rd term is 60
3rd term is 60x
Step-by-step explanation:
(5x +2)³ = C(3,2) × (5x)^(3-2) × 2²
= 3 × 5 × 4 × x
= 60x
Let the number total slices = x
He ate (1/4) x
He has x - 1/4 x = 3/4 x slices left.
Each one of these slices is cut into 1/8s
T (total number of slices) = 8 * (3/4x)
T = (8*3/4) x
T = (24/4)x
T = 6x slices.
