Explanation:
The binomial theorem states that the expansion of (a + b)^n can be found using the following formula:
(a + b)^n = C(n, 0)a^n b^0 + C(n, 1)a^(n-1) b^1 + C(n, 2)a^(n-2)b^2 + ... + C(n, n-1)a^1 b^(n-1) + C(n, n)a^0 b^n
Where C(n, r) is the binomial coefficient given by n! / (r!(n-r)!), n is the power of the binomial, and r is the index of the term.
Using this formula, we can expand (d-5)^6 as:
(d-5)^6 = C(6, 0)d^6 (-5)^0 + C(6, 1)d^5 (-5)^1 + C(6, 2)d^4 (-5)^2 + C(6, 3)d^3 (-5)^3 + C(6, 4)d^2 (-5)^4 + C(6, 5)d (-5)^5 + C(6, 6)(-5)^6
Simplifying each term using the binomial coefficient, we get:
(d-5)^6 = d^6 - 30d^5 + 375d^4 - 2500d^3 + 9375d^2 - 15625d + 15625
Therefore, the binomial expansion of (d-5)^6 is d^6 - 30d^5 + 375d^4 - 2500d^3 + 9375d^2 - 15625d + 15625.
