Question

What are the last three terms of the binomial expansion 32x³ + 80x'y + 80x³y² +

Answer 1

The last three terms of the given binomial expansion are 40x²y³ + 10xy⁴ + y⁵

Binomial expansion

From the question, we are to determine the last three terms of the binomial expansion 32x⁵ + 80x⁴y + 80x³y² + __ + __ + __

The highest power of the expansion is 5

Using the binomial expansion theorem

(m +n)⁵ = m⁵ + 5m⁴n + 10m³n² + 10m²n³ + 5mn⁴ + n⁵

Now, we will determine the values of m and n by comparison

By comparison,

m⁵ = 32x⁵

m⁵ = (2x)⁵

∴ m = 2x

Also,

5m⁴n = 80x⁴y

Divide both sides by 5, to get

m⁴n = 16x⁴y

Put m = 2x into the equation

(2x)⁴n = 16x⁴y

16x⁴n = 16x⁴y

∴ n = y

Thus, the expression being expanded is (2x + y)⁵

By binomial expansion, the expansion of (2x + y)⁵  is

(2x + y)⁵ = (2x)⁵ + 5(2x)⁴y + 10(2x)³(y)² + 10(2x)²(y)³ + 5(2x)(y)⁴ + y⁵

(2x + y)⁵ = 32x⁵ + (5×16)x⁴y + (10×8)x³(y)² + (10×4)x²(y)³ + (5×2)x(y)⁴ + y⁵

(2x + y)⁵ = 32x⁵ + 80x⁴y + 80x³y² + 40x²y³ + 10xy⁴ + y⁵

Hence, the last three terms of the given binomial expansion are 40x²y³ + 10xy⁴ + y⁵
