If (\binom{n}{5}=\binom{n}{9}), what will be the value of (n)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 14

Use the symmetry property of combinations: \(\binom{n}{r}=\binom{n}{n-r}\). For \(\binom{n}{5}=\binom{n}{9}\), 9 must be the complement of 5. Thus, \(n-5=9\), so \(n=14\). For option 13, \(n-5=8\), so it does not satisfy the equality. Exam tip: when two combinations are equal, first check whether their lower indices are complementary.
