Binomial Expansion (v2)


Total Marks: 17
(17 = Platinum, 15 = Gold, 14 = Silver, 12 = Bronze)

1. Find the first three terms, in ascending powers of x, of the binomial expansion of (3 + 2x)5, giving
each term in its simplest form. (4)

2. (a) Write down the first three terms, in ascending powers of x, of the binomial expansion
of (1 + px)12, where p is a non-zero constant. (2)

Given that, in the expansion of (1 + px)12, the coefficient of x is (–q) and the coefficient of x2 is 11q,

(b) find the value of p and the value of q. (4)

3. (a) Write down the first four terms, in ascending powers of x, of the binomial expansion of
𝑥 10
(1 − 5) , giving each term in its simplest form. (4)

(b) Use your expansion to estimate the value of (0.99)10, giving your answer to 5 decimal places.
