Chapter 11: Q. 12.74. (page 1069)

Use the Binomial Theorem to expand ${(4 x - 3 y)}^{4}$ .

Short Answer

Expert verified

The expansion of the given binomial is ${(4 x - 3 y)}^{4} = 256 x^{4} - 768 x^{3} y + 864 x^{2} y^{2} - 432 x y^{3} + 81 y^{4}$

Step by step solution

Step 1. Substitute the values.

The given expression is ${(4 x - 3 y)}^{4}$ .

Substitute in the values into the binomial expansion,

$a = 4 x b = - 3 y n = 4$

Substitute the values.

${(4 x - 3 y)}^{4} = (\begin{matrix} 4 \\ 0 \end{matrix}) {(4 x)}^{4} + (\begin{matrix} 4 \\ 1 \end{matrix}) {(4 x)}^{4 - 1} (- 3 y) + (\begin{matrix} 4 \\ 2 \end{matrix}) {(4 x)}^{4 - 2} {(- 3 y)}^{2} + (\begin{matrix} 4 \\ 3 \end{matrix}) {(4 x)}^{4 - 3} {(- 3 y)}^{3} + (\begin{matrix} 4 \\ 4 \end{matrix}) {(- 3 y)}^{4}$

Simplify the exponents.

${(4 x - 3 y)}^{4} = (\begin{matrix} 4 \\ 0 \end{matrix}) {(4 x)}^{4} + (\begin{matrix} 4 \\ 1 \end{matrix}) {(4 x)}^{3} (- 3 y) + (\begin{matrix} 4 \\ 2 \end{matrix}) {(4 x)}^{2} {(- 3 y)}^{2} + (\begin{matrix} 4 \\ 3 \end{matrix}) (4 x) {(- 3 y)}^{3} + (\begin{matrix} 4 \\ 4 \end{matrix}) {(- 3 y)}^{4}$

Step 2. Simplify the coefficients.

Evaluate the coefficients. Remember,

$(\begin{matrix} n \\ n \end{matrix}) = 1, (\begin{matrix} n \\ 1 \end{matrix}) = n, (\begin{matrix} n \\ 0 \end{matrix}) = 1$

Simplify the exponents.

localid="1668001816525" ${(4 x - 3 y)}^{4} = 256 x^{4} + 4 路 64 x^{3} 路 (- 3 y) + \frac{4!}{2! 2!} (16 x^{2}) 路 (9 y^{2}) + \frac{4!}{3! 1!} (4 x) (- 27 y^{3}) + 81 y^{4}$

Simplify,

localid="1668001843414" $256 x^{4} - 768 x^{3} y + 6 路 (16 x^{2}) 路 (9 y^{2}) + 4 路 (4 x) (- 27 y^{3}) + 81 y^{4}$

Step 3. Conclusion.

Therefore, the expansion of the given expression is,

${(4 x - 3 y)}^{4} = 256 x^{4} - 768 x^{3} y + 864 x^{2} y^{2} - 432 x y^{3} + 81 y^{4}$
