What is the Binomial Theorem?

Back

The Binomial Theorem provides a formula for the expansion of powers of binomials. It states that (a + b)^n = Σ (n choose k) * a^(n-k) * b^k, where k ranges from 0 to n.

What does the term 'n choose k' represent?

Back

'n choose k' represents the number of ways to choose k elements from a set of n elements without regard to the order of selection.
