I'm sorry to say this but, think again guest answerer cool

 

Applybinomialtheorem:(a+b)n=ni=0(ni)a(ni)bi

 

(*ahhhh man not this again...)

 

Just know that:

 

a=2y,b=7

 

when we are substituting values in the formula!!!

 

 

=5i=0(5i)(2y)(5i)(7)i

 

=5!0!(50)!(2y)5(7)0+5!1!(51)!(2y)4(7)1+5!2!(52)!(2y)3(7)2+5!3!(53)!(2y)2(7)3+5!4!(54)!(2y)1(7)4+5!5!(55)!(2y)0(7)5

The coefficient of y^4 in the expansion of (2y-7)^5 is 560

I think there was something wrong with the binomial expansion

Edit: I double checked in Wolfram|Alpha.

 

It should be right.

Well, I did everything I can, I don't think I can solve this one then. Maybe ask someone or a mod laugh!
