(x + 2) is raised to the fifth power. The third term of the expansion is: A. C(5, 3)x³2² B. C(5, 3)x²2³ C. C(5, 2)x³2²

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

well there will be 6 terms in the expansion stating with \[^5C_{0}\] so the third term will be \[^5C_{0} (x)^{5 -2}(2)^2\] just simlify to get a match to one of your choices.

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

oops should be \[^5C_{2}(x)^{5-2}(2)^2\]
