13. Ans: Let S = ∑r=0m n+rCn
S = nCn + n+1Cn + ….. + n+mCn
Coefficient of xn in (1+x)n is nCn , that of xn in (1+x)n+1 is n+1Cn and so on.

S = coefficient of x
n in (1+x)
n + (1+x)
n+1 + ….. + (1+x)
n+m.
Now, (1+x)n + (1+x)n+1 + ….. + (1+x)n+m is a G.P. whose first term is (1+x)n,
common ratio is (1+x) and number of terms is m+1.
So (1+x)n + (1+x)n+1 + ….. + (1+x)n+m = (1+x)n[(1+x)m+1 – 1] / [(1+x) – 1]
= [(1+x)n+m+1 – (1+x)n] / x
We have to find coefficient of xn in [(1+x)n+m+1 – (1+x)n] / x i.e.
coefficient of xn+1 in [(1+x)n+m+1 – (1+x)n].
General term of (1+x)n+m+1 is Tr+1 = n+m+1Cr xr.
Putting r=n+1, we get Tn+2 = n+m+1Cn+1 xn+1

there is no term of x
n+1 in (1+x)
n,
coefficient of xn+1 in [(1+x)n+m+1 – (1+x)n] is n+m+1Cn+1 .
S = ∑r=0m n+rCn = n+m+1Cn+1 .
