Evaluate the given binomial coefficient. $$ \left(\begin{array}{c}11 \\\1\end{array}\right) $$
Use the Binomial Theorem to expand each binomial and express the result in simplified form. $$ \left(2 x^{5}-1\right)^{4} $$
Which one of the following is true? a. The binomial expansion for \((a+b)^{n}\) contains \(n\) terms. b. The Binomial Theorem can be written in condensed form as \((a+b)^{n}=\sum_{r=0}^{n}\left(\begin{array}{l}n \\ r\end{array}\right) a^{n-r} b^{r}\). c. The sum of the binomial coefficients in \((a+b)^{n}\) cannot be \(2^{n}\). d. There are no values of \(a\) and \(b\) such that \((a+b)^{4}=a^{4}+b^{4}\)
Use the Binomial Theorem to expand and then simplify the result: \(\left(x^{2}+x+1\right)^{3}\). [ Hint: Write \(x^{2}+x+1\) as \(\left.x^{2}+(x+1)\right]\)
Which one of the following is true? a. \(\frac{n !}{(n-1) !}=\frac{1}{n-1}\) b. The Fibonacei sequence \(1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89\) \(144, \ldots\) can be defined recursively using \(a_{0}=1, a_{1}=1\) \(a_{n}=a_{n-2}+a_{n-1},\) where \(n \geq 2\). c. \(\sum_{i=1}^{2}(-1)^{i} 2^{i}=0\) d. \(\sum_{i=1}^{2} a_{i} b_{i}=\sum_{i=1}^{2} a_{i} \sum_{i=1}^{2} b_{i}\)
