    Here is an exam with 10 medium-level questions based on the Binomial Theorem: Question
    1: Find the coefficient of the term containing x^4 in the expansion of (3x^2 - 2/x)^6. Answer: To
    find the coefficient of the term containing x^4, we need to determine the power to which x is
    raised in the term. In this case, the power of x is 2 in (3x^2), and it is raised to the power of 2 in
    the expansion. Additionally, we need to consider the term involving the reciprocal of x, which is
    -2/x. Since 2/x is raised to the power of 4, we get (2/x)^4 = 16/x^4. Multiplying these two terms,
    we get 16x^(-4). Finally, we apply the binomial coefficient by selecting 4 from the 6th power,
    resulting in the coefficient of the term containing x^4 as (6C4)(16) = 240. Question 2: Find the
    middle term of the expansion of (2x + 1)^8. Answer: To find the middle term, we need to
    determine the term at the middle position. In this case, the expansion is to the 8th power, which
    means there are (8+1) = 9 terms. Therefore, the middle term will be the (9/2) = 4.5th term.
    However, since the middle term is only one term, we can consider 4 and 5 as adjacent terms.
    Expanding (2x + 1)^8, we get the middle terms as (8C4)(2x)^4(1)^4 + (8C5)(2x)^5(1)^3 = 70x^4 +
    280x^5. Question 3: Find the value of (1 + 0.01)^10000 correct to 2 decimal places. Answer: To
    find the value of (1 + 0.01)^10000, we can directly use the binomial theorem. The expansion of (1
    + 0.01)^10000 is given by the sum of the terms (10000C0)(1)^10000(0.01)^0 + (10000C1)
    (1)^9999(0.01)^1 + ... + (10000C10000)(1)^0(0.01)^10000. Evaluating this expression, we get (1
    + 10000/100)(0.01)^0 + (10000)(1/100)(0.01)^1 + ... + (1/100)(0.01)^10000. Simplifying, we find
    the value to be approximately 2.71828. Question 4: Find the coefficient of x^3 in the expansion of
    (2 - x^2/3)^6. Answer: The expansion of (2 - x^2/3)^6 is given by the sum of the terms (6C0)
    (2)^6(-x^2/3)^0 + (6C1)(2)^5(-x^2/3)^1 + ... + (6C6)(2)^0(-x^2/3)^6. We are interested in finding
    the coefficient of x^3, which means x is raised to the power of 3 in the term. The term involving
    x^3 is (6C3)(2)^3(-x^2/3)^3 = -(6C3)(8)(x^6/27). Simplifying, we get -(20)(8)x^6/27 = -160x^6/27
    as the coefficient of x^3. Question 5: Find the sum of coefficients in the expansion of (3 + 2x)^7.
    Answer: To find the sum of coefficients, we need to add up all the coefficients in the expansion.
    In this case, the expansion of (3 + 2x)^7 consists of 8 terms. Each term has a coefficient, and we
    need to add up these coefficients. The sum of coefficients can be calculated by substituting x = 1
    into the given expression. Therefore, the sum of coefficients in (3 + 2x)^7 is (3 + 2)^7 = 5^7 =
    78125. Question 6: Find the coefficient of a^2b^3 in the expansion of (2a + b)^5. Answer: The
    expansion of (2a + b)^5 is given by the sum of the terms (5C0)(2a)^5(b)^0 + (5C1)(2a)^4(b)^1 + ...
    + (5C5)(2a)^0(b)^5. We are interested in finding the coefficient of a^2b^3, which means a is
    raised to the power of 2 and b is raised to the power of 3 in the term. The term involving a^2b^3
    is (5C2)(2a)^2(b^3) = (10)(4a^2b^3). Therefore, the coefficient of a^2b^3 is 40. Question 7: Find
    the value of (1 - x)^10 correct to three decimal places. Answer: To find the value of (1 - x)^10, we
    can directly use the binomial theorem. The expansion of (1 - x)^10 is given by the sum of the
    terms (10C0)(1)^10(-x)^0 + (10C1)(1)^9(-x)^1 + ... + (10C10)(1)^0(-x)^10. Evaluating this
    expression, we get (1)(1) - (10)(1)(x) + (10)(9/2)(x^2) - (10)(9/2)(8/3)(x^3) + ... + (10C10)(-x)^10.
    Simplifying, we find the value to be 1 - 10x + 45x^2 - ... + x^10. Question 8: Find the term
    independent of x in the expansion of (2x + 1/x^2)^5. Answer: To find the term independent of x,
    we need to determine the term where the variable x is raised to the power of 0. In this case, the
    term independent of x will occur when (2x)^r (1/x^2)^(5-r) = (2x)^0 (1/x^2)^5. Simplifying, we get
    1/x^(10-2r) = 1/x^10. This implies that 10 - 2r = 10, leading to r = 0. Therefore, the term
    independent of x is (5C0)(2x)^0(1/x^2)^5 = (1)(1)(1/x^10) = 1/x^10. Question 9: Find the
    coefficient of x^2 in the expansion of (1 + x/3)^8. Answer: The expansion of (1 + x/3)^8 is given
    by the sum of the terms (8C0)(1)^8(x/3)^0 + (8C1)(1)^7(x/3)^1 + ... + (8C8)(1)^0(x/3)^8. We are
    interested in finding the coefficient of x^2, which means x is raised to the power of 2 in the term.
    The term involving x^2 is (8C2)(1)^6(x/3)^2 = (28)(1)(x^2/9). Therefore, the coefficient of x^2 is
    28/9. Question 10: Find the coefficient of a^3b^4 in the expansion of (a + 2b)^7. Answer: The
    expansion of (a + 2b)^7 is given by the sum of the terms (7C0)(a)^7(2b)^0 + (7C1)(a)^6(2b)^1 + ...
    + (7C7)(a)^0(2b)^7. We are interested in finding the coefficient of a^3b^4, which means a is
    raised to the power of 3 and b is raised to the power of 4 in the term. The term involving a^3b^4
    is (7C3)(a^3)(2b)^4 = (35)(a^3)(16b^4). Therefore, the coefficient of a^3b^4 is 560a^3b^4. These
    are the answers to the 10 medium-level questions based on the Binomial Theorem.
