| | | | A few months ago Mathematics Magazine published a paper of mine, "A Combinatorial View of Sums of Powers." In it I give a combinatorial interpretation for the power sum $latex \sum_{k=1}^n k^m$, together with combinatorial proofs of two formulas for this power sum. (An earlier version of some of the results in this paper actually... | |

| | | | In this post I would like to prove the following identity, motivated by this tweet. $latex \displaystyle n! \prod_{k=0}^n \frac{1}{x+k} = \frac{1}{x\binom{x+n}{n}} = \sum_{k=0}^n \frac{(-1)^k \binom{n}{k}}{x+k}$ The first of these equalities is straightforward by the definition of binomial coefficients. To prove the second, we make use of partial fractions. We write the expansion $latex \displaystyle... | |

| | | | Before you read this, I suggest you read post 16.50. In post 16.50, we saw that the effect of a force depends on its direction, as well as how big it is - force is a vector. So, if we add a force of 5 N to another force of 5 N, the result can... | |
