12 pigs×4 legs=48 legs
18 chickens×2 legs=36 legs
48 legs+36 legs=84 legs

Explain how to use Pascal's Triangle to expand the binomial (3x-4y)^11

Mars2501 [29]

The solution to the binomial expression by using Pascal's triangle is:

$\mathbf{=177147x^{11}-2598156x^{10}y +17321040x^9y^2-69284160x^8y^3+184757760x^7y^4}$

$\mathbf{-344881152x^6y^5+459841536x^5y^6-437944320x^4y^7+291962880x^3y^8}$

$\mathbf{-129761280x2y^9+34603008xy^{10}-4194304y^{11}}$

<h3>How can we use Pascal's triangle to expand a binomial expression?</h3>

Pascal's triangle can be used to calculate the coefficients of the expansion of (a+b)ⁿ by taking the exponent (n) and adding the value of 1 to it. The coefficients will correspond with the line (n+1) of the triangle.

We can have the Pascal tree triangle expressed as follows:

1

1 1

1 2 1

1 3 3 1

1 4 6 4 1

--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

From the given information:

The expansion of (3x-4y)^11 will correspond to line 11.

Using the general formula for the Pascal triangle:

$\mathbf{(a+b)^n = c_oa^nb^0 + c_1 a^{n-1}b^1+c_{n-1}a^1b^{n-1}+c_na^0b^n}$

The solution to the expansion of the binomial (3x-4y)^11 can be computed as:

$\mathbf{=177147x^{11}-2598156x^{10}y +17321040x^9y^2-69284160x^8y^3+184757760x^7y^4}$

$\mathbf{-344881152x^6y^5+459841536x^5y^6-437944320x^4y^7+291962880x^3y^8}$

$\mathbf{-129761280x2y^9+34603008xy^{10}-4194304y^{11}}$

<h3>What was the problem at Kenya Airways ?</h3>

The problem in the airways was that corporation didn't know its customers, the airline hasn't been able to take use of its market opportunity in recent years.

Airways was unable to evaluate and keep track of its marketing efforts.

The technology factor that contributed were:

No reliable systems for tracking and accounting.
The technology used was neither accurate nor consistent.

The Organisation factors that contributed were

No communication between the organisation and the customers

No track record of the online campaigns and advertisement output

Customer Relations Needed to be improved.

X+2y=8<br>2x-y=1<br>mathe question

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

x = 2 and y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have

x+2y = 8 -----equation (i)

2x-y = 1 -----equation (ii)

Now,

x+2y = 8

or, x = 8-2y ------equation (iii)

Again,

2x-y = 1

or, 2x = 1+y

or, 2x-1 = y

Putting the value of 'x' from equation (iii)

or, 2(8-2y)-1 = y

or, 16-4y-1 = y

or, 16-1 = y+4y

or, 15 = 5y

or, y = 15/5

or, y = 3

Putting the value of 'y' in equation (iii)

x = 8-2y

or, x = 8-(2×3)

or, x = 8-6

or, x = 2

Therefore, x = 2 and y = 3.
