Newton’s formula

There is: Binomial’s theorem , a,bє Ł si nєAt*, then

known also as Newton’s formula.Isaac Newton, English mathematician, astronomer, physician (1643-1727)

Specifications regarding Newton’s formula:

1.the coefficients are called binomial coefficients of the development and are in number of n+1.

Is necessary to make a distinction between the binomial coefficient of a term and the numerical coefficient of the same term.

2. Those n+1 are

3. The natural numbers are called binomial coefficients of odd rank, and the numbers are called binomial coefficients of even rank.

4. In Newton’s formula the exponents of a powers are decreasing from n to 0, and exponents of b power are increasing from 0 to n.

5. The binomial coefficients of the extreme terms and those equally distant from the extreme terms are equal :

6. If the power exponent is even, n=2k, then the development has 2k+1 terms, and the middle term has the highest binominal coefficient :

If the power exponent is odd, n=2k+1, then the development has 2k+2 terms and there are two terms in the middle of the development with equally binomial coefficients and of highest value
