The Binomial Theorem

The Binomial Theorem

Here is a truly basic result from combinatorics kindergarten.

Example

There are times when we are interested not in the full expansion of a power of a binomial, but just the coefficient on one of the terms. The gives that the coefficient of \(x^5y^8\) in \((2x-3y)^{13}\) is \(\binom{13}{5}2^{5}(-3)^8\).

Fanontaniana napetrak'ireo olona

Permutation or combination?

Ask whether order matters. A lock code is a permutation (order matters); a hand of cards is a combination (it does not).

What is a graph in this sense?

Dots (vertices) joined by lines (edges), not a plot. Road maps, social networks and molecules are graphs; questions like "is there a route" and "how few colours" are graph theory.
