  2. Binomial theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_theorem

    However, there will be several terms of the form x n−2 y 2, one for each way of choosing exactly two binomials to contribute a y. Therefore, after combining like terms, the coefficient of x n−2 y 2 will be equal to the number of ways to choose exactly 2 elements from an n-element set.

  3. Expression (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expression_(mathematics)

    A term is a constant or the product of a constant and one or more variables. Some examples include 7 , 5 x , 13 x 2 y , 4 b {\displaystyle 7,\;5x,\;13x^{2}y,\;4b} The constant of the product is called the coefficient .

  4. Binomial coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_coefficient

    This number can be seen as equal to the one of the first definition, independently of any of the formulas below to compute it: if in each of the n factors of the power (1 + X) n one temporarily labels the term X with an index i (running from 1 to n), then each subset of k indices gives after expansion a contribution X k, and the coefficient of ...

  5. Binomial approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_approximation

    The binomial approximation for the square root, + + /, can be applied for the following expression, + where and are real but .. The mathematical form for the binomial approximation can be recovered by factoring out the large term and recalling that a square root is the same as a power of one half.

  6. Monomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monomial

    In mathematics, a monomial is, roughly speaking, a polynomial which has only one term.Two definitions of a monomial may be encountered: A monomial, also called a power product or primitive monomial, [1] is a product of powers of variables with nonnegative integer exponents, or, in other words, a product of variables, possibly with repetitions. [2]

  7. Cross-multiplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-multiplication

    where x is a variable we are interested in solving for, we can use cross-multiplication to determine that x = b c d . {\displaystyle x={\frac {bc}{d}}.} For example, suppose we want to know how far a car will travel in 7 hours, if we know that its speed is constant and that it already travelled 90 miles in the last 3 hours.

  8. Monic polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monic_polynomial

    A product of monic polynomials is monic. A product of polynomials is monic if and only if the product of the leading coefficients of the factors equals 1. This implies that, the monic polynomials in a univariate polynomial ring over a commutative ring form a monoid under polynomial multiplication.

  9. Product (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_(mathematics)

    In mathematics, a product is the result of multiplication, or an expression that identifies objects (numbers or variables) to be multiplied, called factors.For example, 21 is the product of 3 and 7 (the result of multiplication), and (+) is the product of and (+) (indicating that the two factors should be multiplied together).
