If the coefficints of $${x^3}$$ and $${x^4}$$ in the expansion of $$\left( {1 + ax + b{x^2}} \right){\left( {1 - 2x} \right)^{18}}$$ in powers of $$x$$ are both zero, then $$\left( {a,\,b} \right)$$ is equal to:
Solving (1) and (2), we get $$a$$ = 16, b = $${{172} \over 3}$$

MCQ (Single Correct Answer)
The term independent of $$x$$ in expansion of
$${\left( {{{x + 1} \over {{x^{2/3}} - {x^{1/3}} + 1}} - {{x - 1} \over {x - {x^{1/2}}}}} \right)^{10}}$$ is
Here in $${\left( {\sqrt 3 } \right)^{2n - 1}}$$, 2n - 1 is odd number. So there will be always $${\sqrt 3 }$$ in $${\left( {\sqrt 3 } \right)^{2n - 1}}$$.
So $${\left( {\sqrt 3 + 1} \right)^{2n}} - {\left( {\sqrt 3 - 1} \right)^{2n}}$$ will be always irrational number.
