Prove the validity of the following formula of Newton’s binom \[(x+y)^n = \binom{n}{0}x^n + \binom{n}{1}x^{n-1}y + \dots + \binom{n}{n}y^n.\]
How many rational terms are contained in the expansion of
a) \((\sqrt 2 + \sqrt[4]{3})^{100}\);
b) \((\sqrt 2 + \sqrt[3]{3})^{300}\)?
How many six-digit numbers exist, for which each succeeding number is smaller than the previous one?
Why are the equalities \(11^2 = 121\) and \(11^3 = 1331\) similar to the lines of Pascal’s triangle? What is \(11^4\) equal to?
Think of a way to finish constructing Pascal’s triangle upward.
Calculate the following sums:
a) \(\binom{5}{0} + 2\binom{5}{1} + 2^2\binom{5}{2} + \dots +2^5\binom{5}{5}\);
b) \(\binom{n}{0} - \binom{n}{1} + \dots + (-1)^n\binom{n}{n}\);
c) \(\binom{n}{0} + \binom{n}{1} + \dots + \binom{n}{n}\).
In the expansion of \((x + y)^n\), using the Newton binomial formula, the second term was 240, the third – 720, and the fourth – 1080. Find \(x\), \(y\) and \(n\).
Show that any natural number \(n\) can be uniquely represented in the form \(n = \binom{x}{1} + \binom{y}{2} + \binom{z}{3}\) where \(x, y, z\) are integers such that \(0 \leq x < y < z\), or \(0 = x = y < z\).
Find \(m\) and \(n\) knowing the relation \(\binom{n+1}{m+1}: \binom{n+1}{m}:\binom{n+1}{m-1} = 5:5:3\).
Which term in the expansion \((1 + \sqrt 3)^{100}\) will be the largest by the Newton binomial formula?
