| | | | | 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... | |
