@Hero

\[(x^2-2y)^5\]
confirm please
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[(x^2-y)^5= x^{10}-10x^8y+40x^6y^2-80x^4y^3+80x^2y^4-32y^5\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
that's your binomial expansion
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok how did you start off with X to the 10th

ok have u heard of pascal's triangle?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes i have
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and the 5th would be 1 5 10 10 5 1 right?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[(x^2)^5\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes u are write but look at the above...

oh you multiply
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes exactly
OpenStudy (anonymous):
u have to put the whole term to the highest power...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok but one like for the others you multiply them as well cause i remeber they said something about raising them
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes u raise one power and reduce the other for the other term

i was talking about the first term
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok but would that be the final answer cause i saw my teacher do something else im not sur though
OpenStudy (anonymous):
well do u want the detailed solution?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
plugging in the binomial general formula?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes

ok i will show u how to do that
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[(a+b)^n=\sum_{k=0}^{n}\left(\begin{matrix}n \\ k\end{matrix}\right)a^{n-k}b^k\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wow well that looks a bit confusing
OpenStudy (anonymous):
hehehehe

OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok i will use the normal way
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok please
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[(a+b)^n=a^n+C^{n}_1a^{(n-1)}b+C^{n}_2a^{(n-2)}b^2+...+C^{n}_{n-1}ab^{(n-1)+b^n}b\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
do u know this form...

in this picture instead of a you plug in x^2, and instead of b you plug in -y
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok well im gonna try working on it, thanks.
