QUESTION 1

We want to expand $(x-2)^6$ .

We apply the binomial theorem which is given by the formula

$(a+b)^n=^nC_0a^nb^0+^nC_1a^{n-1}b^1+^nC_2a^{n-2}b^2+...+^nC_na^{n-n}b^n$ .

By comparison,

$a=x,b=-2,n=6$ .

We substitute all these values to obtain,

$(x-2)^6=^6C_0x^6(-2)^0+^6C_1x^{6-1}(-2)^1+^6C_2x^{6-2}(-2)^2+^6C_3x^{6-3}(-2)^3+^6C_4x^{6-4}(-2)^4+^6C_5x^{6-5}(-2)^5+^6C_6x^{6-6}(-2)^6$ .

We now simplify to obtain,

$(x-2)^6=^nC_0x^6(-2)^0+^6C_1x^{5}(-2)^1+^6C_2x^{4}(-2)^2+^6C_3x^{3}(-2)^3+^6C_4x^{2}(-2)^4+^6C_5x^{1}(-2)^5+^6C_6x^{0}(-2)^6$ .

This gives,

$(x-2)^6=x^6-12x^{5}+60x^{4}-160x^{3}(-2)^3+240x^{2}-1925x+64$ .

Ans:C

QUESTION 2

We want to expand

$(x+2y)^4$ .

We apply the binomial theorem to obtain,

$(x+2y)^4=^4C_0x^4(2y)^0+^4C_1x^{4-1}(2y)^1+^4C_2x^{4-2}(2y)^2+^4C_3x^{4-3}(2y)^3+^4C_4x^{4-4}(2y)^4$ .

We simplify to get,

$(x+2y)^4=x^4(2y)^0+4x^{3}(2y)^1+6x^{2}(2y)^2+4x^{1}(2y)^3+x^{0}(2y)^4$ .

We simplify further to obtain,

$(x+2y)^4=x^4+8x^{3}y+24x^{2}y^2+32x^{1}y^3+16y^4$

Ans:B

QUESTION 3

We want to find the number of terms in the binomial expansion,

$(a+b)^{20}$ .

In the above expression, $n=20$ .

The number of terms in a binomial expression is $(n+1)=20+1=21$ .

Therefore there are 21 terms in the binomial expansion.

Ans:C

QUESTION 4

We want to expand

$(x-y)^4$ .

We apply the binomial theorem to obtain,

$(x-y)^4=^4C_0x^4(-y)^0+^4C_1x^{4-1}(-y)^1+^4C_2x^{4-2}(2y)^2+^4C_3x^{4-3}(-y)^3+^4C_4x^{4-4}(-y)^4$ .

We simplify to get,

$(x+2y)^4=^x^4(-y)^0+4x^{3}(-y)^1+6x^{2}(-y)^2+4x^{1}(-y)^3+x^{0}(-y)^4$ .

We simplify further to obtain,

$(x+2y)^4=x^4-4x^{3}y+6x^{2}y^2-4x^{1}y^3+y^4$

Ans: C

QUESTION 5

We want to expand $(5a+b)^5$

We apply the binomial theorem to obtain,

$(5a+b)^5=^5C_0(5a)^5(b)^0+^5C_1(5a)^{5-1}(b)^1+^5C_2(5a)^{5-2}(b)^2+^5C_3(5a)^{5-3}(b)^3+^5C_4(5a)^{5-4}(b)^4+^5C_5(5a)^{5-5}(b)^5$ .

We simplify to obtain,

$(5a+b)^5=^5C_0(5a)^5(b)^0+^5C_1(5a)^{4}(b)^1+^5C_2(5a)^{3}(b)^2+^5C_3(5a)^{2}(b)^3+^5C_4(5a)^{1}(b)^4+^5C_5(5a)^{0}(b)^5$ .

This finally gives us,

$(5a+b)^5=3125a^5+3125a^{4}b+1250a^{3}b^2+^250a^{2}(b)^3+25a(b)^4+b^5$ .

Ans:B

QUESTION 6

We want to expand $(x+2y)^5$ .

We apply the binomial theorem to obtain,

$(x+2y)^5=^5C_0(x)^5(2y)^0+^5C_1(x)^{5-1}(2y)^1+^5C_2(x)^{5-2}(2y)^2+^5C_3(x)^{5-3}(2y)^3+^5C_4(x)^{5-4}(2y)^4+^5C_5(x)^{5-5}(2y)^5$ .

We simplify to get,

$(x+2y)^5=^5C_0(x)^5(2y)^0+^5C_1(x)^{4}(2y)^1+^5C_2(x)^{3}(2y)^2+^5C_3(x)^{2}(2y)^3+^5C_4(x)^{1}(2y)^4+^5C_5(x)^{0}(2y)^5$ .

This will give us,

$(x+2y)^5=x^5+^10(x)^{4}y+40(x)^{3}y^2+80(x)^{2}y^3+80(x)y^4+32y^5$ .

Ans:A

QUESTION 7

We want to find the 6th term of $(a-y)^7$ .

The nth term is given by the formula,

$T_{r+1}=^nC_ra^{n-r}b^r$ .

Where $r=5,n=7,b=-y$

We substitute to obtain,

$T_{5+1}=^7C_5a^{7-5}(-y)^5$ .

$T_{6}=-21a^{2}y^5$ .

Ans:D

QUESTION 8.

We want to find the 6th term of $(2x-3y)^{11}$

The nth term is given by the formula,

$T_{r+1}=^nC_ra^{n-r}b^r$ .

Where $r=5,n=11,a=2x,b=-3y$

We substitute to obtain,

$T_{5+1}=^{11}C_5(2x)^{11-5}(-3y)^5$ .

$T_{6}=-7,185,024x^{6}y^5$ .

Ans:D

QUESTION 9

We want to find the 6th term of $(x+y)^8$ .

The nth term is given by the formula,

$T_{r+1}=^nC_ra^{n-r}b^r$ .

Where $r=5,n=8,a=x,b=y$

We substitute to obtain,

$T_{5+1}=^8C_5(x)^{8-5}(y)^5$ .

$T_{6}=56a^{3}y^5$ .

Ans: A

We want to find the 7th term of $(x+4)^8$ .

The nth term is given by the formula,

$T_{r+1}=^nC_ra^{n-r}b^r$ .

Where $r=6,n=8,a=x,b=4$

We substitute to obtain,

$T_{6+1}=^8C_5(x)^{8-6}(4)^6$ .

$T_{7}=114688x^{2}$ .

I NEED HELP!!!

zepelin [54]

In order to answer this one, it's really really really really helpful if you know what the law of cosines says. In fact it's absolutely necessary. The law of cosines says if you know two sides of a triangle and the angle between them then you can use that information to find the length of the third side. In the picture you know the lengths of two sides and you know the angle between them. So you can use the law of cosines to find the length of the third sidethat. That's side AC.

Hey ok i need help on this question ive been stuck on it for a couple minutes haha

Len [333]

Answer:

The side s has a length of 4 and side q has a length of 4 $\sqrt{3}$ ⇒ F

Step-by-step explanation:

In the 30°-60°-90° triangle, there is a ratio between its sides

side opp (30°) : side opp (60°) : hypotenuse

1 : $\sqrt{3}$ : 2

In the given triangle

∵ The side opposite to 30° is s

∵ The side opposite to 60° is q

∵ The hypotenuse is 8

→ Use the ratio above to find the lengths of s and q

side opp (30°) : side opp (60°) : hypotenuse

1 : $\sqrt{3}$ : 2

s : q : 8

→ By using cross multiplication

∵ s × 2 = 1 × 8

∴ 2s = 8

→ Divide both sides by 2

∴ s = 4

∴ The length of s is 4

∵ q × 2 = $\sqrt{3}$ × 8

∴ 2q = 8 $\sqrt{3}$

→ Divide both sides by 2

∴ q = 4 $\sqrt{3}$

∴ The length of q is 4 $\sqrt{3}$
