    • @matthewjamestaylor
      @matthewjamestaylor 6 лет назад +71

      You start by multiplying x+y by x+y taking each element in the multiplicand and multiplying those with each term in the multiplier (x times x, plus x times y plus y times x plus y times y - AKA FOIL, firsts-outers-inners-lasts). You take that product and multiply that by x+y. Then that product by x+y. After combining terms you get the distributed form of x+y to the fourth. What he showed. Need a big whiteboard to show my work, sorry.

      bendingsands87 - You may see it in the Plinko pricing game on the TV show "The Price is Right." Drew Carey, the host, always instructs the contestant to drop only one puck into the pegs at a time. Interestingly, contestants choose differing drop points while trying to find the "lucky" spot. If they understood the normal distribution, they would only drop the puck from the center position directly above the $10,000 (highest) result.

      Not really. Mathematics kind of IS the ether. All of the math that exists wasn't created; it was discovered. The structure of our universe caused mathematics to be the way that it is. It's been there all along waiting for someone to find it. There's plenty more out there too.

    Hey Dong, you have missed that Pascal's Triangle also gives powers of 11. Starting from the 0th Row,
    11^0 = 1
    11^1 = 11
    11^2 = 121
    11^3 = 1331
    And so on...

      Rafay Alvi it works if you substitute numbers from

      1*1000+3*100+3*10+1=1331=11^3
      1*100000+5*10000+10*1000+10*100+5*10+1=11^5
      or do transformations:
      1,5,10,10,5,1
      ->1,6,0,10,5,1
      ->1,6,1,0,5,1

    That's crazy! A natural way of finding the coefficients of powered binomials is mind blowing. I had no idea about this. Does this mean that if we did this triangle in 3-dimensions that we would be able to find the coefficients of a trinomial?

    • @abhishekmewar671

      Any trinomial can be further categorised into a binomial for instance.(a+b+c)^n=(x+c)^n;
      x=a+b; and so on.
      And as far as a triangle in 3D is concernedit would be a pyramidal shape with each of the four planes along the sides would be represented by a Pascal triangle consisting of the combination of one of the ordered pairs of (x,y),(y,z) and (z,x)

      Treeko13 Statistically, tomorrow is ALWAYS in less than a day. Only at exactly 12:00:00.00000000000... AM is tomorrow in one day. An immeasurably small amount of time later, tomorrow is now calculably less than a day away, and will remain so until the next time it's 12:00:00.00000000000... AM. The window of time in which tomorrow is a day away, and by extension the probability that a randomly selected time will be in the window, is so ridiculously small that it takes on the property of negligibility: it's so incredibly close to zero, we can just call it zero and calculations involving this figure won't change at all.
