Binomial expansion with slider
Explore the coefficients and terms of the binomial expansion by changing the exponent (n) with a slider. Set the slider step to 1 (integer) to see how the coefficients from Pascal's triangle are formed for each power.
Permutations
Permutations can be calculated using factorials or directly with the nPr command. You can find the command in the menu under 5: Probability > 2: Permutations. CAS commands can also be used in these calculations.
Simplifying logarithmic expressions
Many logarithmic expressions can be simplified simply by pressing Enter. If the expressions include variables, it is often necessary to define a domain to allow simplification. You can also try using expand and factor. These tools can be helpful, but may sometimes lead to unwanted forms, such as factorizations of base numbers.
