How to do binomial expansion for harder values of n
First follow general formula for expansion
1 + Nx + n(n-1)/2! X2 + n(n-1)(n-2) /3! X3
Now apply n inside
1) can only work for values -1<x<1 otherwise it would expand without limit
2) the more values the more accurate you get
3) if x is different coefficient it’s fine, but it MUST be 1 and so will have to factor out
How to find the range of validity
Rmeemerb -1<x<1, so whatever x is put inside and manipulate
I’d there are two rnages if validity, then how do you decide ?
Choose the one that satisfies BITH
A tip, if there are repeating patterns and once suddenly wring what does this prolly mean
Yiu made a mistake, patterns like all positbe, all negative one moositve one negative etc
So etiems put approximation back into the equation Orginal before expansion
This will helpnyou see a pattern
What to remember about partial fractions when there is a REPEATED ROOT
Repeated root, means you need to include it twice, so the releated root once and the other too
How can you use partial fractions to help binomial expand
Split fractions up and expand both of them
What about partial fractions in integration
Same thing so,it them up to jsie
