What these solutions cover

All 20 questions in Binomial Theorem are solved in the PDF. Here's what's inside, exercise by exercise:

Exercise 7.1

  1. Expand the expression: (1 – 2x)^5
  2. Expand the expression: (2/x – x/2)^5
  3. Expand the expression: (2x – 3)^6
  4. Expand the expression: (x/3 + 1/x)^5
  5. Expand the expression: (x + 1/x)^6
  6. Using binomial theorem, evaluate: (96)^3
  7. Using binomial theorem, evaluate: (102)^5
  8. Using binomial theorem, evaluate: (101)^4
  9. Using binomial theorem, evaluate: (99)^5
  10. Using Binomial Theorem, indicate which number is larger: (1.1)^10000 or 1000.
  11. Find (a + b)^4 – (a – b)^4. Hence, evaluate (√3 + √2)^4 – (√3 – √2)^4.
  12. Find (x + 1)^6 + (x – 1)^6. Hence or otherwise evaluate (√2 + 1)^6 + (√2 – 1)^6.
  13. Show that 9^(n+1) – 8n – 9 is divisible by 64, whenever n is a positive integer.
  14. Prove that Σ (r=0 to n) 3^r · C(n,r) = 4^n.

Miscellaneous Exercise

  1. If a and b are distinct integers, prove that a – b is a factor of a^n – b^n, whenever n is a positive integer. [Hint: write a^n = (a – b + b)^n and expand]
  2. Evaluate: (√3 + √2)^6 – (√3 – √2)^6.
  3. Find the value of (a² + √(a²–1))^4 + (a² – √(a²–1))^4.
  4. Find an approximation of (0.99)^5 using the first three terms of its expansion.
  5. Expand using Binomial Theorem: (1 + x/2 – 2/x)^4, x ≠ 0.
  6. Find the expansion of (3x² – 2ax + 3a²)^3 using binomial theorem.
