@ -100,7 +100,7 @@ A binomial is a polynomial expression with 2 terms.
A binomial expansion takes the form of $`(x + y)^n`$, where $`n`$ is an integer and $`x, y`$ can be any number we want.
A common relationship of binomial expansion is pascal's triangle. The $`nth`$ row of the triangle correspond to the coefficent of $`(x + y)^n`$

The generalized version form of the binomial expansion is:
$`\large (x+y)^n = \binom{n}{0}x^ny^0 + \binom{n}{1} x^{n-1}y^1 + \binom{n}{2}x^{n-2}y^2 + \cdots+ \binom{n}{n-1}x^{n-(n-1)}y^{n-1} + \binom{n}{0} x^0y^n`$.
Written in sigma notation, it is:
$`\large (x+y)^n = \sum_{k=0}^{n} \binom{n}{k}x^ky^{n-k}`$
eg. $`\large(a + b)^3 = a^3 + 3a^2b + 3ab^2 + b^3`$
## Simple Interest
$`\large I = Prt`$
- $`P`$ is the principal money (start amount of $)
- $`r`$ is the annual interest rate expressed as a decimal (the percent is $`1 - r`$)
- $`t`$ is the time in years.
- This interest is calculated from the original amount each time. (eg. if you had $$`100`$, and your interest is $`1\%`$, your interest will be a constant $$`1`$ each time.)
The total amount would be $`P + I`$.
## Compound Interest
Compound interest is interest paidon the interest previously earned and the original investment.
```math
\large A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}
```
- $`P`$ is the original amount
- $`\frac{r}{n} = i`$: this is the rate of interest **per period**.
- $`r`$ is interest rate
- $`n`$ is the number of periods (described below)
- $`nt`$ is the number of **total** periods (described below) Specifically, $`t`$ is the number of years.
- $`A`$ is the total value of the investment after $`nt`$ investemnt periods.
|Compounding Period|$`n`$|$`nt`$|
|:-----------------|:----|:-----|
|Annual|$`n = 1`$|$`nt = t`$|
|Semi-annual|$`n = 2`$|$`nt = 2t`$|
|Quarterly|$`n = 4`$|$`nt = 4t`$|
|Monthly|$`n = 12`$|$`nt = 12t`$|
|Daily|$`n = 365`$|$`nt = 365t`$|
## Future Value Annuities
**Definition:** An annuity is a series of equal deposits made at equal time intervales. Each depositis made at the end of each time interval.
A `Future Value` usually refers to how much money you will earn in the **future**. (eg. I have $100 dollars, I make desposits of $50 dollars each year with interest, how much will I have after $`5`$ years?)
Since it is basically the summation of a geometric sequence, we can apply the geometric series formula to get the following formula for future annuities:
```math
\large
FV = \frac{R[(1+\frac{r}{n})^n - 1]}{\frac{r}{n}}
```
