Explain why the middle term  is 10x.

In the Binomial Expansion's middle term, in the expansion of (a + b)n, there are (n + 1) terms. Therefore, we can write the middle term or terms of (a + b)n based on the value of n. It follows that there will only be one middle term if n is even and two middle terms if n is odd.
The binomial expansions of (x + y)n are used to find specific terms, such as the term independent of x or y.

Polynomial identities are equations that are true for all possible values of the variable and numbers.

Use binomial theorem to expand (2c + d)⁶

The expansion of the expression can also be found using the Pascal’s triangle. But, it is necessary to remember the values of the triangle to write down the expansion.
