Expand Using the Binomial Theorem (3p+4q)^3

${(3 p + 4 q)}^{3}$

Step 1

Use the binomial expansion theorem to find each term. The binomial theorem states ${(a + b)}^{n} = \sum_{k = 0}^{n} n C k \cdot (a^{n - k} b^{k})$ .

$\sum_{k = 0}^{3} \frac{3!}{(3 - k)! k!} \cdot {(3 p)}^{3 - k} \cdot {(4 q)}^{k}$

Step 2

Expand the summation.

$\frac{3!}{(3 - 0)! 0!} \cdot {(3 p)}^{3 - 0} \cdot {(4 q)}^{0} + \frac{3!}{(3 - 1)! 1!} \cdot {(3 p)}^{3 - 1} \cdot {(4 q)}^{1} + \frac{3!}{(3 - 2)! 2!} \cdot {(3 p)}^{3 - 2} \cdot {(4 q)}^{2} + \frac{3!}{(3 - 3)! 3!} \cdot {(3 p)}^{3 - 3} \cdot {(4 q)}^{3}$
