<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.

The slope can sometimes be called the gradient, and the equation for the gradient is (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1). So therefore, you'd do: (-8 - 7)/(4 - -5) which is (-15)/9) which is -1 2/3 or -1.6 (recurring), which is your answer. I hope this helps! Let me know if I've confused you :)
Answer: 1) c 2) a 3) d
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
******************************************************************************************
Reference angle is the angle measurement from the x-axis. <em>There is no such thing as a negative reference angle.</em>
-183° is 3° from the x-axis so the reference angle is 
*******************************************************************************************
Coterminal means the same angle location after one or more<em> </em>rotations either clockwise or counter-clockwise.
To find these angles, add <em>or subtract</em> 360° from the given angle to find one rotation, add <em>or subtract</em> 2(360°) from the given angle to find two rotations, etc.
To find ALL of the coterminals, add <em>or subtract</em> 360° as many times as the number of rotations. Rotations can only be integers. In other words, you can only have ± 1, 2, 3, ... rotations. You cannot have a fraction of a rotation.
Given: 203°
Coterminal angles: 203° ± k360°, k ∈ <em>I</em>

Answer:
- equation: y = x+3
- inequality: y < x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the line is 1 unit of rise for 1 unit of run, so ...
m = rise/run = 1/1 = 1
The y-intercept is 3 grid lines above the x-axis, so is (0, 3).
Then the equation of the line is ...
y = 1x +3
The inequality has that line as a boundary, but the y-values on the line are not part of the solution space. Only y-values below the line (less than those on the line) are in the solution. The inequality is ...
y < x +3
