From: JEE Main 2024 (Online) 8th April Morning Shift
Question
Let \alpha=\sum_\limits{r=0}^n\left(4 r^2+2 r+1\right){ }^n C_r and \beta=\left(\sum_\limits{r=0}^n \frac{{ }^n C_r}{r+1}\right)+\frac{1}{n+1}. If , then the value of is _________.

Step-by-step explanation
\begin{aligned} & \int_\limits0^1(1+x)^n d x=\left.\sum_{r=0}^n \frac{{ }^n C_r x^{r+1}}{r+1}\right|_0 ^1=\sum_\limits{r=0} \frac{{ }^n C}{r+1} \\ & \left.\frac{(1+x)^{+1}}{n+1}\right|_0 ^1=\frac{2^n-1}{n+1} \\ \Rightarrow & \beta=\frac{2^{n+1}-1+1}{(n+1)}=\frac{2}{n+1} \\ \Rightarrow & \frac{2 \alpha}{\beta}=\frac{2^{n+1}(n \quad 1)}{\left(\frac{2^{n+1}}{n+1}\right)}=(n+1)^3 \in(140,281) \\ \Rightarrow & (n+1)^3=216 \\ \Rightarrow & n+1=6 \Rightarrow n=5 \end{aligned}
