11,390,625x6\text{11,390,625}x^6

Step-by-step solution

6 steps

The expression given is (3×5x)6(3 \times 5x)^6. Pascal's method (or Pascal's Triangle) is used for expanding binomials (expressions with two terms, like (a+b)n(a+b)^n). Since (3×5x)6(3 \times 5x)^6 simplifies to a monomial (15x)6(15x)^6, Pascal's method is not directly applicable to the expression as written.

Here is the direct solution for the given expression:

  1. Simplify the expression inside the parenthesis.

    (3×5x)6=(15x)6(3 \times 5x)^6 = (15x)^6
  2. Apply the exponent to both factors inside the parenthesis.

    (15x)6=156×x6(15x)^6 = 15^6 \times x^6
  3. Calculate 15615^6.

    156=15×15×15×15×15×15=11,390,62515^6 = 15 \times 15 \times 15 \times 15 \times 15 \times 15 = 11,390,625
  4. Combine the results.

    (15x)6=11,390,625x6(15x)^6 = 11,390,625x^6

    The final answer is 11,390,625x6\boxed{\text{11,390,625}x^6}.


    Assuming the problem intended to be (3+5x)6(3+5x)^6 (a binomial expansion):

    If the problem intended to be (3+5x)6(3+5x)^6, then Pascal's method would be used to find the coefficients for the binomial expansion.

  5. Identify the coefficients from Pascal's Triangle for n=6n=6.

    The 6th row of Pascal's Triangle (starting with row 0) provides the coefficients:

    1,6,15,20,15,6,11, 6, 15, 20, 15, 6, 1
  6. Apply the binomial theorem using a=3a=3 and b=5xb=5x.

    The general form for (a+b)n(a+b)^n is ∑k=0n(nk)an−kbk\sum_{k=0}^{n} \binom{n}{k} a^{n-k} b^k.

    • Term 1 (k=0k=0): (60)(3)6(5x)0=1⋅(729)⋅(1)=729\binom{6}{0} (3)^6 (5x)^0 = 1 \cdot (729) \cdot (1) = 729
    • Term 2 (k=1k=1): (61)(3)5(5x)1=6⋅(243)⋅(5x)=6⋅1215x=7290x\binom{6}{1} (3)^5 (5x)^1 = 6 \cdot (243) \cdot (5x) = 6 \cdot 1215x = 7290x
    • Term 3 (k=2k=2): (62)(3)4(5x)2=15⋅(81)⋅(25x2)=15⋅2025x2=30375x2\binom{6}{2} (3)^4 (5x)^2 = 15 \cdot (81) \cdot (25x^2) = 15 \cdot 2025x^2 = 30375x^2
