When do I use T_(r+1) = nCr·a^(n−r)·b^r in Binomial Theorem, and what does it mean?

the general (r+1)th term of (a+b)^n.

T_(r+1) = nCr·a^(n−r)·b^r — the general (r+1)th term of (a+b)^n. Use it when: 0 ≤ r ≤ n. Always check the condition holds before plugging in numbers.

Key point

T_(r+1) = nCr·a^(n−r)·b^r
