Quintinomial coefficients
Problem 588
The coefficients in the expansion of are called binomial coefficients.
Analoguously the coefficients in the expansion of are called quintinomial coefficients.
(quintus= Latin for fifth).
Analoguously the coefficients in the expansion of are called quintinomial coefficients.
(quintus= Latin for fifth).
Consider the expansion of :
As we can see 7 out of the 13 quintinomial coefficients for are odd.
As we can see 7 out of the 13 quintinomial coefficients for are odd.
Let be the number of odd coefficients in the expansion of .
So .
So .
You are given and .
