What is the expansion of (3+x)^4

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

$\left(3+x\right)^4:\quad x^4+12x^3+54x^2+108x+81$

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the expression

$\left(3+x\right)^4$

Lets determine the expansion of the expression

$\left(3+x\right)^4$

$\mathrm{Apply\:binomial\:theorem}:\quad \left(a+b\right)^n=\sum _{i=0}^n\binom{n}{i}a^{\left(n-i\right)}b^i$

$a=3,\:\:b=x$

$=\sum _{i=0}^4\binom{4}{i}\cdot \:3^{\left(4-i\right)}x^i$

Expanding summation

$\binom{n}{i}=\frac{n!}{i!\left(n-i\right)!}$

$i=0\quad :\quad \frac{4!}{0!\left(4-0\right)!}3^4x^0$

$i=1\quad :\quad \frac{4!}{1!\left(4-1\right)!}3^3x^1$

$i=2\quad :\quad \frac{4!}{2!\left(4-2\right)!}3^2x^2$

$i=3\quad :\quad \frac{4!}{3!\left(4-3\right)!}3^1x^3$

$i=4\quad :\quad \frac{4!}{4!\left(4-4\right)!}3^0x^4$

$=\frac{4!}{0!\left(4-0\right)!}\cdot \:3^4x^0+\frac{4!}{1!\left(4-1\right)!}\cdot \:3^3x^1+\frac{4!}{2!\left(4-2\right)!}\cdot \:3^2x^2+\frac{4!}{3!\left(4-3\right)!}\cdot \:3^1x^3+\frac{4!}{4!\left(4-4\right)!}\cdot \:3^0x^4$

$=\frac{4!}{0!\left(4-0\right)!}\cdot \:3^4x^0+\frac{4!}{1!\left(4-1\right)!}\cdot \:3^3x^1+\frac{4!}{2!\left(4-2\right)!}\cdot \:3^2x^2+\frac{4!}{3!\left(4-3\right)!}\cdot \:3^1x^3+\frac{4!}{4!\left(4-4\right)!}\cdot \:3^0x^4$

as

$\frac{4!}{0!\left(4-0\right)!}\cdot \:\:3^4x^0:\:\:\:\:\:\:81$

$\frac{4!}{1!\left(4-1\right)!}\cdot \:3^3x^1:\quad 108x$

$\frac{4!}{2!\left(4-2\right)!}\cdot \:3^2x^2:\quad 54x^2$

$\frac{4!}{3!\left(4-3\right)!}\cdot \:3^1x^3:\quad 12x^3$

$\frac{4!}{4!\left(4-4\right)!}\cdot \:3^0x^4:\quad x^4$

so equation becomes

$=81+108x+54x^2+12x^3+x^4$

$=x^4+12x^3+54x^2+108x+81$

Therefore,

$\left(3+x\right)^4:\quad x^4+12x^3+54x^2+108x+81$

A policyholder has probability 0.7 of having no claims, 0.2 of having exactly one claim, and 0.1 of having exactly two claims. C

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

0.89.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we are given the following data or parameters or information which is going to aid in the solution to this question or problem. So, the data or parameters are;

(1). "probability 0.7 of having no claims, 0.2 of having exactly one claim, and 0.1 of having exactly two claims."

(2). " distributed on the interval [0,60] and are independent."

(3). "The insurer covers 100% of each claim."

So, taking (1) above we will have;

(Total probability= 0.7 + 0.2 + 0.1 = 0.1)

A = { (0.7 × 0)^2 + (0.2 × 1)^2 + ( 0.1 × 2)^2 =( 0.4) +( 0.4) = 0.8.

0.8 + total probability = 0.8 + 0.1 = 0.9.

So, from the question, we are to "Calculate the probability that the total beneﬁt paid to the policyholder is 48 or less."

Hence, P< 48/A = P < 48/0.9 = P < 53.33.

Thus, 53.33/60 = 0.89.

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The simplest form of

15 /40 is 3 /8 .

Steps to simplifying fractions

Find the GCD (or HCF) of numerator and denominator

GCD of 15 and 40 is 5

Divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCD

15 ÷ 5

40 ÷ 5

Reduced fraction:

3 /8

Therefore, 15/40 simplified to lowest terms is 3/8.

Tia cut a 4 meters and 8 centimeters wire in to 10 equal pieces. Marta cut a 540 centimeters wire into 9 equal pieces. How much

Black_prince [1.1K]

540/9 = 60cm

408/10 = 40.8

60-40.8 = 19.2cm longer
