TopicBinomial Theorem (positive integer n)
TypeStandard binomial expansion coefficient
DifficultyEasy -1.2 This is a direct application of the binomial theorem requiring only substitution into the formula for a single term. It's more routine than average A-level questions since it's purely mechanical recall with no problem-solving, though the arithmetic with negative terms requires care.
Spec1.04a Binomial expansion: (a+b)^n for positive integer n

1 Find the coefficient of \(x ^ { 7 }\) in the expansion of \(( 2 x - 3 ) ^ { 7 }\) Circle your answer.
