Expand Using the Binomial Theorem (y+z)^6

${(y + z)}^{6}$

Step 1

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

$\sum_{k = 0}^{6} \frac{6!}{(6 - k)! k!} \cdot {(y)}^{6 - k} \cdot {(z)}^{k}$

Step 2

Expand the summation.

$\frac{6!}{(6 - 0)! 0!} {(y)}^{6 - 0} \cdot {(z)}^{0} + \frac{6!}{(6 - 1)! 1!} {(y)}^{6 - 1} \cdot {(z)}^{1} + \dots + \frac{6!}{(6 - 6)! 6!} {(y)}^{6 - 6} \cdot {(z)}^{6}$

Step 3

Simplify the exponents for each term of the expansion.

$1 \cdot {(y)}^{6} \cdot {(z)}^{0} + 6 \cdot {(y)}^{5} \cdot {(z)}^{1} + \dots + 1 \cdot {(y)}^{0} \cdot {(z)}^{6}$

Step 4

Simplify the polynomial result.

$y^{6} + 6 y^{5} z + 15 y^{4} z^{2} + 20 y^{3} z^{3} + 15 y^{2} z^{4} + 6 y z^{5} + z^{6}$
