Since we need the term that doesn't contain x we could know that we are looking for a term such that ( 4 x ) 6 − k ( x 1 ) k = 1 ( x 4 6 − k ) ( x 2 k 1 ) = x 2 k x 4 6 − k = 1 x 4 6 − k − 2 k = 1 we know that every x with exponent equal to zero is 1, so x 4 6 − k − 2 k = x 0 then 4 6 − k − 2 k = 0 4 6 − k = 2 k 6 − k = 2 k 6 = 3 k k = 3 6 = 2 and we know by binomial theorem that the term is ( 2 6 ) ( 4 x ) 6 − 2 ( x 1 ) 2 ) = 1 5 ( 4 x ) 4 ( x 1 ) 2
