Answer: The value of m is 29.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that, One term of [tex](x+y)^m[/tex] is [tex]31,824x^{18}y^{11}[/tex] ...(i)
We know that that (r+1)th term in [tex](a+b)^n[/tex] is given by :-
[tex]T_{r+1}=^nC_ra^{n-r}b^r[/tex] ...(ii)
On comparing (i) with (ii) , we get
[tex]a= x \text{ and } b= y \\n-r =18 \text{ and } r=11\\n=m[/tex]
i.e.
[tex]m-r=18\Rightarow\ m-11=18\\\\\Rightarrow\ m=18+11=29[/tex]
Hence, the value of m is 29.
