The constant term of (x+x32)15 when expanded is 5005.

 

When the above expression is expanded, we get 

Applying Binomial Therom:

 

15i=0(15i)x(15i)(x32)i

 

x15+15x252+105x10+455x152+1365x5+3003x52+5005+6435x52+6435x5+5005x152+3003x10+1365x252+455x15+105x352+15x20+1x452

 

The constant term as seen above is 5005.
