\begin{matrix}1\\1&1\\1&2&1\\1&3&3&1\\1&4&6&4&1\end{bmatrix}

The rows add up to 1,2,4,8,16, respectively. (Notice they're all powers of 2)

The sum of the numbers in row n is 2^{n-1}.

The last problem can be solved with the binomial theorem, but I'll assume you don't take that for granted. You can prove this claim by induction. When n=1,

(1+x)^1=1+x=\dbinom10+\dbinom11x

so the base case holds. Assume the claim holds for n=k, so that

(1+x)^k=\dbinom k0+\dbinom k1x+\cdots+\dbinom k{k-1}x^{k-1}+\dbinom kkx^k

Use this to show that it holds for n=k+1.

(1+x)^{k+1}=(1+x)(1+x)^k
(1+x)^{k+1}=(1+x)\left(\dbinom k0+\dbinom k1x+\cdots+\dbinom k{k-1}x^{k-1}+\dbinom kkx^k\right)
(1+x)^{k+1}=1+\left(\dbinom k0+\dbinom k1\right)x+\left(\dbinom k1+\dbinom k2\right)x^2+\cdots+\left(\dbinom k{k-2}+\dbinom k{k-1}\right)x^{k-1}+\left(\dbinom k{k-1}+\dbinom kk\right)x^k+x^{k+1}

Notice that

\dbinom k\ell+\dbinom k{\ell+1}=\dfrac{k!}{\ell!(k-\ell)!}+\dfrac{k!}{(\ell+1)!(k-\ell-1)!}
\dbinom k\ell+\dbinom k{\ell+1}=\dfrac{k!(\ell+1)}{(\ell+1)!(k-\ell)!}+\dfrac{k!(k-\ell)}{(\ell+1)!(k-\ell)!}
\dbinom k\ell+\dbinom k{\ell+1}=\dfrac{k!(\ell+1)+k!(k-\ell)}{(\ell+1)!(k-\ell)!}
\dbinom k\ell+\dbinom k{\ell+1}=\dfrac{k!(k+1)}{(\ell+1)!(k-\ell)!}
\dbinom k\ell+\dbinom k{\ell+1}=\dfrac{(k+1)!}{(\ell+1)!((k+1)-(\ell+1))!}
\dbinom k\ell+\dbinom k{\ell+1}=\dbinom{k+1}{\ell+1}

So you can write the expansion for n=k+1 as

(1+x)^{k+1}=1+\dbinom{k+1}1x+\dbinom{k+1}2x^2+\cdots+\dbinom{k+1}{k-1}x^{k-1}+\dbinom{k+1}kx^k+x^{k+1}

and since \dbinom{k+1}0=\dbinom{k+1}{k+1}=1, you have

(1+x)^{k+1}=\dbinom{k+1}0+\dbinom{k+1}1x+\cdots+\dbinom{k+1}kx^k+\dbinom{k+1}{k+1}x^{k+1}

and so the claim holds for n=k+1, thus proving the claim overall that

(1+x)^n=\dbinom n0+\dbinom n1x+\cdots+\dbinom n{n-1}x^{n-1}+\dbinom nnx^n

Setting x=1 gives

(1+1)^n=\dbinom n0+\dbinom n1+\cdots+\dbinom n{n-1}+\dbinom nn=2^n

which agrees with the result obtained for part (c).

9e^6x-2+7=45<br>hello me, please show your work. thanks!
mamaluj [8]
The steps to this problem would be first simplifying 9e^6 x-2+7=45 to 9e^6x+5.Which translates into 9e^6 x+5=45.

Then Subtract 5 from both sides : 9e^6 x = 45 - 5Now simplify 45-5 to 40

9e^6 x = 40
Now divide both sides by 9:
e^6 x = 40/9
Then divide both sides by e^6
x = 40/9/e^6
And finally simplify that into x = 40/9e^6. That's your final answer. Comment if you need more help or for me to explain more. Hope this helped :)

A point lies in quadrant 2. If it is rotated 180 degrees counterclockwise, which quadrant will the point come to rest?
NeTakaya
A point (a, b) in the second Quadrant, is any point where a is negative and b is positive.

For example (-3, 5), (-189, 14) etc are all points in the 2.Quadrant

Rotating a point P(x, y) in the second Quadrant 180° counterclockwise, means rotating 180° counterclockwise about the origin, which maps point P to P'(-a, -b) in the fourth Quadrant.

What is another way to write to 72- (-25) ?
Valentin [98]

Your answer would be 1, or 72+25.

What is happening in this case is a negative number is being subtracted from a positive. This means you are taking away a negative. The two negatives cancel each other out, and then it becomes you are adding a positive.

Another way I like to think about this is the two minus symbols combine together to form a plus sign.

Hope this helped!
