Math Problem Statement

${n \choose i+1}$

Solution

The binomial coefficient (ni+1)\binom{n}{i+1} is commonly expressed as:

(ni+1)=n!(i+1)!(n(i+1))!=n!(i+1)!(ni1)!\binom{n}{i+1} = \frac{n!}{(i+1)!(n-(i+1))!} = \frac{n!}{(i+1)!(n-i-1)!}

where:

  • n!n! is the factorial of nn,
  • (i+1)!(i+1)! is the factorial of i+1i+1,
