Step-by-step explanation:
8.1.1 An expression consisting of two terms, connected by + or – sign is called a
binomial expression. For example, x + a, 2x – 3y, 3
1 1 4 , 7

x x y
− − , etc., are all binomial
expressions.

8.1.3 Some important observations
1. The total number of terms in the binomial expansion of (a + b)
n
is n + 1, i.e. one
more than the exponent n.
2. In the expansion, the first term is raised to the power of the binomial and in each
subsequent terms the power of a reduces by one with simultaneous increase in
the power of b by one, till power of b becomes equal to the power of binomial,
i.e., the power of a is n in the first term, (n – 1) in the second term and so on
ending with zero in the last term. At the same time power of b is 0 in the first
term, 1 in the second term and 2 in the third term and so on, ending with n in the
last term.
3. In any term the sum of the indices (exponents) of ‘a’ and ‘b’ is equal to n (i.e.,
the power of the binomial).
4. The coefficients in the expansion follow a certain pattern known as pascal’s
triangle.
