1. Binomial Coefficient

2. Definition of Binomial coefficient
For nonnegative integers n and r with n > r the expansion (read “n above r”) is called a binomial coefficient and is defined by

6. Expanding binomial
The theorem that specifies the expansion of any power (a+b)n of a binomial (a+b) as a certain sum of products

7. We can easily see the pattern on the x's and the a's
We can easily see the pattern on the x's and the a's. But what about the coefficients? Make a guess and then as we go we'll see how you did.

8. Pascal’s Triangle

9. Pascal’s Triangle
Each row of the triangle begins with a 1 and ends with a 1.
Each number in the triangle that is not a 1 is the sum of the two numbers directly above it (one to the right and one to the left.)
Numbering the rows of the triangle 0, 1, 2, … starting at the top, the numbers in row n are the coefficients of x n, x n-1y , x n-2y2 , x n-3y3, … y n in the expansion of (x + y)n.

10. Binomial Theorem
The a’s start out to the nth power and decrease by 1 in power each term. The b's start out to the 0 power and increase by 1 in power each term.
The binomial coefficients are found by computing the combination symbol. Also the sum of the powers on a and b is n.
(a+b)n = nCo an bo +nC1 an-1 b1 +nC2 an-2 b2+…..+nCn a0 bn.

Answer =

14. GENERAL TERM IN A BINOMIAL EXPANSION
For n positive numbers we have
(a+b)n = nCo an bo +nC1 an-1 b1 +nC2 an-2 b2+…..+nCn a0 bn.
According to this formula we have
The first term=T1= nCo an b0
The second term =T2= nC1 an-1 b1
The third term=T3= nC2 an-2 b2
So, any individual terms, let’s say the ith term, in a binomial
Expansion can be represented like this: Ti=n C(i-1) an-(i-1) b(i-1)

15. EXAMPLE

16. MIDDLE TERM

17. EXAMPLE Find the middle term in the expansion of (4x-y) 8
Ti= th term =5th term
T5=8C4(4x)8-4(-y)4
T5= 70(256x4) (y4)
T5=17920x4y4
