<span>binomial </span>is an algebraic expression containing 2 terms. For example, (x + y) is a binomial.
We sometimes need to expand binomials as follows:
(a + b)0 = 1
(a + b)1 = a + b
(a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2
(a + b)3 = a3 + 3a2b + 3ab2 + b3
<span>(a + b)4</span> <span>= a4 + 4a3b</span><span> + 6a2b2 + 4ab3 + b4</span>
<span>(a + b)5</span> <span>= a5 + 5a4b</span> <span>+ 10a3b2</span><span> + 10a2b3 + 5ab4 + b5</span>
Clearly, doing this by direct multiplication gets quite tedious and can be rather difficult for larger powers or more complicated expressions.
Pascal's Triangle
We note that the coefficients (the numbers in front of each term) follow a pattern. [This was noticed long before Pascal, by the Chinese.]
1
1 1
1 2 1
1 3 3 1
1 4 6 4 1
1 5 10 10 5 1
1 6 15 20 15 6 1
You can use this pattern to form the coefficients, rather than multiply everything out as we did above.
The Binomial Theorem
We use the binomial theorem to help us expand binomials to any given power without direct multiplication. As we have seen, multiplication can be time-consuming or even not possible in some cases.

Answer: Choice B</h3>
Explanation:
Cosine is positive in quadrants I and IV, but quadrant IV isn't shaded in so we can rule out choice A.
Sine is positive in quadrants I and II. So far it looks like choice B could work. In fact, it's the answer because sin(pi/6) = 1/2 and sin(5pi/6) = 1/2. So if 0 ≤ sin(x) < 1/2, then we'd shade the region between theta = 0 and theta = pi/6; as well as the region from theta = 5pi/6 to theta = pi.
Choice C is ruled out because tangent is positive in quadrants I and III, but quadrant III isn't shaded.
Choice D is ruled out for similar reasoning as choice A. Recall that 
Answer: 0.072
Explanation: There are 3 zeros in 1000, so there must be 3 decimal digits.
Answer:
(3)(6)
Step-by-step explanation:
1st. Find the answer(60*30%=18)
2nd. Find the option that equals 18 which was (3)(6)
Basically, for all of questions that ask for a different way to express it, multiply the total amount by the percentage(or decimal/fraction) and find the other expression with the same answer.
Answer: round it up to 5
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 time 7 = 14/3
14/3= 4.6
if the number after the decimal is above 5 you may round up
