The Binomial Theorem
Unit 10.5
Binomial Theorem
(a + b)0 = 1a0b0
(a + b)1 = 1a1b0 + 1a0b1
(a + b)2 = 1a2b0 + 2a1b1 + 1a0b2
(a + b)3= 1a3b0 + 3a2b1 + 3a1b2 + 1a0b3
(a + b)4 = 1a4b0 + 4a3b1 +6a2b2 + 4a1b3 + 1a0b4
(a + b)5 =1a5b0 + 5a4b1 +10a3b2 +10a2b3 + 5a1b4 + 1a0b5

Find binomial coefficients
Formula nCr = n!
(n – r)!r!
r = term in the coefficient r = k – 1
(x + y)9, 6th term
n = 9 r = 5
nCr = 9! = 9! = 9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1 = 126 (9
– 5)!5! 4!5! 4*3*2*1*5*4*3*2*1
Binomials with coefficients other than 1
(2x – 3y)8, x3y5
n = 8 r = 5 a = 2x b = (-3y)
nCr = n! 8! → 8*7*6 = 56
(n – r)!r! 3!5! 3*2*1
56(2x)3(-3y)5 = 56(8)(-243) = -108,864
