0
12
41
14
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
We want to find the values of $x$ for which the binomial expansion of $(7 - 5x)^{-2/3}$ is valid.
The binomial expansion is valid when $|5x/7| < 1$.
This means:
$$ \left|\frac{5x}{7}\right| < 1 $$
$$ |5x| < 7 $$
$$ |x| < \frac{7}{5} $$
$$ -\frac{7}{5} < x < \frac{7}{5} $$
The set of all values of $x$ for which the expansion is valid is $(-c, c)$, where $c = \frac{7}{5}$.
Calculating $5c + 7$:
We have $5c = 5 \cdot \frac{7}{5} = 7$.
Therefore, $5c + 7 = 7 + 7 = 14$.
Final Answer:
The final answer is ${14}$.

Algebra of Complex Numbers
Algebra of complex numbers
1. Addition of two complex numbers:
Consider z1 and z2 are two complex numbers.
For example, z1 = 3+4i and z2 = 4+3i
Here a=3, b=4, c=4, d=3
∴z1+ z2 = (a+c)+(b+d)i
⇒z1 + z2 = (3+4)+(4+3)i
⇒z1 + z2 = 7+7i
Properties of addition of complex numbers
- Closure law: While adding two complex numbers the resulting number is also a complex number.
- Commutative law: For the complex numbers z1 and z2 , the commutation can be z1+ z2 = z2+z1
- Associative law: While considering three complex numbers, (z1+ z2) + z?3 = z1 + (z2 + z3)
- Additive identity: An Additive identity is nothing but zero complex numbers that go as 0+i0. For every complex number z, z+0 = z.
- Additive inverse: Every complex number has an additive inverse denoted as -z.
2. Difference between two complex numbers
It is similar to the addition of complex numbers, such that, z1 - z2 = z1 + ( -z2)
For example: (5+3i) - (2+1i) = (5-2) + (-2-1i) = 3 - 3i
3. Multiplication of complex numbers
Considering the same value of z1 and z2 , the product of the complex numbers are
z1 * z2 = (ac-bd) + (ad+bc) i
For example: (5+6i) (2+3i) = (5×2) + (6×3)i = 10+18i
Properties of Multiplication of complex numbers
Note: The properties of multiplication of complex numbers are similar to the properties we discussed in addition to complex numbers.
- Closure law: When two complex numbers are multiplied the result is also a complex number.
- Commutative law: z1* z2 = z2 * z1
Associative law: Considering three complex numbers, (z1 z2) z3 = z1 (z2 z3)
- Multiplicative identity: 1+0i is always denoted as 1. This is multiplicative identity. This means that z.1 = z for every complex number z.
- Distributive law: Considering three complex numbers, z1 (z2 + z3) =z1 z2 + z1 z3 and (z1+ z2) z3 = z1 z2 + z2 z3.

4. Division of complex numbers
If z1 / z2 of a complex number is asked, simplify it as z1 (1/z2 )
For example: z1 = 4+2i and z2 = 2 - i
z1 / z2 =(4+2i)×1/(2 - i) = (4+i2)(2/(2²+(-1)² ) + i (-1)/(2²+(-1)² ))
=(4+i2) ((2+i)/5) = 1/5 [8+4i + 2(-1)+1] = 1/5 [8-2+1+41] = 1/5 [7+4i]
