Pascal's TriangleCan you find the Fibonacci sequence in the triangle?
Any individual term, let's say the ith term, in a binomial expansion can be represented like this:
Example: Find the 4th term in the expansion of
Recall: This relation holds for each term in any binomial expansion:
Example: Find the term that contains x in the expansion of
[exponent on a] + [exponent on b] = n
And any individual term in a binomial expansion can be represented like this:
Recall: This relation holds for each term in any binomial expansion:
Example: Find the term that contains x in the expansion of
[exponent on a] + [exponent on b] = n
