Given:

The expression:  (1 + x)^n

The Binomial Theorem is used to predict the products of a binomial raised to a certain power, n, without multiplying the terms one by one. 

The following formula is used:

(a + b)^n = nCk * a^(n-k) * b^k

we have (1 +x)^n,

where a = 1 
            b = x
let n = 4

First term, k = 1

4C1 = 4

first term: 4*(1^(4-1))*x^1

Therefore, the first term is 4x. Do the same for the next three terms. 

2nd term: k =2 
3rd term: k = 3
4th term: k = 4

The owner of the Outdoor Furniture Center decides to use the 120% markup. At the end on
lana66690 [7]

Answer: The total price of a bench is 1.008x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Let the cost price be 'x'.

Mark up % = 120%

So, Mark up value would be

\dfrac{120}{100}x\\\\=1.20x

Discount % = 20%

Amount of discount is given by

\dfrac{20}{100}\times 1.2x\\\\=0.2\times 1.2x\\\\=0.24x

So, it becomes,

Amount after discount is given by

1.2x-0.24x\\\\=0.96x

Sales tax = 5%

Amount of sales tax would be

\dfrac{100+5}{100}\times 0.96x\\\\=\dfrac{105}{100}\times 0.96x\\\\=1.05\times 0.96x\\\\=1.008x

Hence, the total price of a bench is 1.008x.
