Q. The coefficient of n2 of the expanded form of (5n2−4n−3)2 is −14.
Identify Terms for Squaring: Identify the terms in the binomial that will produce n2 terms when squared.Calculation: (5n2−4n−3)2=(5n2)2+2(5n2)(−4n)+2(5n2)(−3)+(−4n)2+2(−4n)(−3)+(−3)2
Calculate Coefficients: Calculate the coefficient of n2 from each relevant term.Calculation: From (5n2)2, coefficient is 25.From (−4n)2, coefficient is 16.From 2(5n2)(−4n), no n2 term.From 2(5n2)(−3), no n2 term.From 2(−4n)(−3), no n2 term.From (5n2)21, no n2 term.Total coefficient of n2 = 25 + 16 = 41.
