somebody please help me. thank you sooo much!!
i totally forgot where i got these numbers:
well for this problem the first on a.
sorry actually the second on b. this is my work but i totally forgot were i got those exponents
sorry it is slanted! i can fix it if you need thanks
i don't understand were the exponents 3 and 2 and how i got those
so I am not exactly clear on what you are asking, but I believe you are doing something with binomial expansion, sound familiar?
3 and (5-3) for a sum of 3+(5-3)=5 that 3 there is for the 3rd term
5 is what your thing binomial was to the power of
\(\large r\)th term in binomial exansion \(\large (a+b)^n\) : \[\large \binom{n}{r-1}a^{n-(r-1)}b^{r-1}\]
yes @myininaya but for this problem:
oh that problem is for 2c
but i don't understand if the 2 is for the 2nd term then why isn't the 2^2 but 2^3?
First of all, your first term in binomial \(\large (2a+b)\) is not just \(\large 2\), it is \(\large 2a \)
oh yes sorry
next, use the \(\large r\)th term formula
I should have said 5-(3-1) and (3-1) by the way... for the sum of 5 and since 3 was the 3rd term
\(\large 2\)nd term in binomial exansion \(\large (2a+b)^4\) : \[\large \binom{4}{2-1}(2a)^{4-(2-1)}b^{2-1}\]
wait thou idk if you can see 2d. but i don't understand how the exponent 5 is with 4 and not with the 3 thank you ganeshie
np :) is there a question still ?
no i don't believe so thank youuu all! :D
yw, it could be confusing with those too many exponents and subtraction signs, they are unnecessary.. i memorize only the binomial expansion formula and deduce nth term when required : \[\large (a+b)^n = \sum\limits_{r=0}^n\binom{n}{r}a^{n-r}b^r\] you memorize which ever is easy for you :) `
yayay! thanks again
