Question Number 29777 by Joel578 last updated on 12/Feb/18
f(x) = (x − 1)(x − 2)(x − 3)...(x − 50)  Find coefficient of x^(49)
$${f}\left({x}\right)\:=\:\left({x}\:−\:\mathrm{1}\right)\left({x}\:−\:\mathrm{2}\right)\left({x}\:−\:\mathrm{3}\right)…\left({x}\:−\:\mathrm{50}\right) \\ $$$$\mathrm{Find}\:\mathrm{coefficient}\:\mathrm{of}\:{x}^{\mathrm{49}} \\ $$

i guess yesterday ques was upto x−60

It was my mistake. It should be (x − 50)
$$\mathrm{It}\:\mathrm{was}\:\mathrm{my}\:\mathrm{mistake}.\:\mathrm{It}\:\mathrm{should}\:\mathrm{be}\:\left({x}\:−\:\mathrm{50}\right) \\ $$

the more challenging question is:  find the coefficient of x^k  with 0≤k≤50.
$${the}\:{more}\:{challenging}\:{question}\:{is}: \\ $$$${find}\:{the}\:{coefficient}\:{of}\:{x}^{{k}} \:{with}\:\mathrm{0}\leqslant{k}\leqslant\mathrm{50}. \\ $$
