In the binomial expansion, prove the following?

In the binomial expansion of \( (1+a)^{m+n}, \)prove that the cofficients of \( a^m~and a^n \) are equal?

Solutions

Expert Solution

Solution:

Proceed as follows:

Thus, the cofficient of \( a^m= \)the cofficient of \( a^n \).

 

The cofficient \( a^m = \) of the cofficient of \( a^n \).

\( a^n \).
