<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:
10.4 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Write an equation for the total cost paid as a function of the # of miles driven:
L(x) = $6.75 + ($3.20/mile)x
and set this equal to $40.03 to determine the # of miles Lupita rode:
L(x) = $6.75 + ($3.20/mile)x = $40.03
Isolate the x term by subtracting $6.75 from both sides:
($3.20/mile)x = $40.03 - $6.75 = $33.28
Finally, divide both sides by ($3.20/mile):
x = $33.28 / ($3.20/mile)
= 10.4 miles
Lupita rode 10.4 miles in the taxi.

Answer:
all are Not Equivalent
Step-by-step explanation:
The coefficient of t³ in the target expression is -3. In order for that to be the result of simplifying any of the given expressions, they must have ( )^(t^3) in the denominator. None do, so none of the offered choices is equivalent to the given expression.
_____
The expressions simplify like this:

Answer:
Domain: All real numbers greater than or equal to 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer 1: -14 is not in the domain
Answer 2: 4 is included in the domain
Answer:
y = 15x + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
15x represents 15 times how many ever pizzas you order and 8 is for the delivery cost.
Hope this helps!
