What is the fourth term in the binomial expansion (a+b)^6)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Dafna11 [192]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

20a^3b^3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Binomial Series</u>

(a+b)^n=a^n+\dfrac{n!}{1!(n-1)!}a^{n-1}b+\dfrac{n!}{2!(n-2)!}a^{n-2}b^2+...+\dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}a^{n-r}b^r+...+b^n

<u>Factorial</u> is denoted by an exclamation mark "!" placed after the number. It means to multiply all whole numbers from the given number down to 1.

Example:  4! = 4 × 3 × 2 × 1

Therefore, the fourth term in the binomial expansion (a + b)⁶ is:

\implies \dfrac{n!}{3!(n-3)!}a^{n-3}b^3

\implies \dfrac{6!}{3!(6-3)!}a^{6-3}b^3

\implies \dfrac{6!}{3!3!}a^{3}b^3

\implies \left(\dfrac{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times \diagup\!\!\!\!3 \times \diagup\!\!\!\!2 \times \diagup\!\!\!\!1}{3 \times 2 \times 1 \times \diagup\!\!\!\!3 \times \diagup\!\!\!\!2 \times \diagup\!\!\!\!1}\right)a^{3}b^3

\implies \left(\dfrac{120}{6}\right)a^{3}b^3

\implies 20a^3b^3

80 pointss!!! Write the standard form for the scientific notation give below:
sasho [114]
2.32*103 = 2.39E3, or 2.39*10^3

This result is likely wrong because I first thought your 103 literally meant 103.  Now it seems that you meant 10^3 (10 to the third power).  So, ignore the above result and multiply again:  2.32*10^3.  This is already in scientific notation.

4.2*10^4 is already in scientific notation.

4.2*10^(-2) is already in scientific notation.

5700=1.7*10^3 (answer in scientific notation)

6548000= 6.55*10^(-6) (in scientific notation)
