expand (x^2-x)^4

Solution

expand

(x^{2} - x)^{4}

Solution

x^{8} - 4 x^{7} + 6 x^{6} - 4 x^{5} + x^{4}

Solution steps

(x^{2} - x)^{4}

Apply binomial theorem:

(a + b)^{n} = i = 0 \sum n (i n) a^{(n - i)} b^{i}

a = x^{2}, b = - x

= i = 0 \sum 4 (i 4) (x^{2})^{(4 - i)} (- x)^{i}

Expand summation

= \frac{4 !}{0 ! ( 4 - 0 ) !} (x^{2})^{4} (- x)^{0} + \frac{4 !}{1 ! ( 4 - 1 ) !} (x^{2})^{3} (- x)^{1} + \frac{4 !}{2 ! ( 4 - 2 ) !} (x^{2})^{2} (- x)^{2} + \frac{4 !}{3 ! ( 4 - 3 ) !} (x^{2})^{1} (- x)^{3} + \frac{4 !}{4 ! ( 4 - 4 ) !} (x^{2})^{0} (- x)^{4}

Simplify

\frac{4 !}{0 ! ( 4 - 0 ) !} (x^{2})^{4} (- x)^{0} : x^{8}

Simplify

\frac{4 !}{1 ! ( 4 - 1 ) !} (x^{2})^{3} (- x)^{1} : - 4 x^{7}

Simplify

\frac{4 !}{2 ! ( 4 - 2 ) !} (x^{2})^{2} (- x)^{2} : 6 x^{6}

Simplify

\frac{4 !}{3 ! ( 4 - 3 ) !} (x^{2})^{1} (- x)^{3} : - 4 x^{5}

Simplify

\frac{4 !}{4 ! ( 4 - 4 ) !} (x^{2})^{0} (- x)^{4} : x^{4}

= x^{8} - 4 x^{7} + 6 x^{6} - 4 x^{5} + x^{4}
