What is the fourth term of the expansion of the binomial (2x+5)^5

when expanded from left to right the powers of x decrease from 5 to 0 and powers of y increase from 0 to 5

substitute x =2x and y = 5

(2x + 5)⁵ = (2x)⁵ + 5(2x)⁴5 + 10(2x)³5² + 10(2x)²5³ + 5(2x)5⁴ + 5⁵

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x

2

=

10
