Algebra.Com's Answer #819238 by Boreal(15235)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! the expansion of the first few terms is 11C0(1^9*(-2x)^0=1 \n" ); document.write( "and 11C1(1^10)(-2x)^1=-22x \n" ); document.write( "11C2 (1^9)(-2x)^2=220x^2 \n" ); document.write( "11C3(1^6)(-2x)^3=165(-8x^3)=-1320x^3 \n" ); document.write( "k=-6, -1320/220 \n" ); document.write( " |
