Example Question #961 : Isee Upper Level (Grades 9 12) Mathematics Achievement
What is the coefficient of
in the expansion of ?
By the Binomial Theorem, the
term of is,
making the coefficient of
.
We can set
in this expression:
Example Question #962 : Isee Upper Level (Grades 9 12) Mathematics Achievement
What is the coefficient of
in the expansion of ?
By the Binomial Theorem, the
term of is.
Substitute
and this becomes.
The coefficient is
.
Example Question #13 : Variables And Exponents
Evaluate:
We need to apply the power of power rule twice:
Example Question #966 : Isee Upper Level (Grades 9 12) Mathematics Achievement
Solve for
.
Based on the power of a product rule we have:
The bases are the same, so we can write:
Example Question #8 : How To Find The Exponent Of Variables
Simplify:
First, recognize that raising the fraction to a negative power is the same as raising the inverted fraction to a positive power.
Apply the exponent within the parentheses and simplify.
This fraction cannot be simplified further.
Example Question #9 : How To Find The Exponent Of Variables
Simplify:
First, recognize that raising the fraction to a negative power is the same as raising the inverted fraction to a positive power.
Apply the exponent within the parentheses and simplify.
Example Question #10 : How To Find The Exponent Of Variables
Simplify if
and .
Begin by factoring the numerator and denominator.
can be factored out of each term.
can be canceled, since it appears in both the numerator and denomintor.
Next, factor the numerator.
Simplify.
