This is actually funny lmao

It's so strange that it was always taught me as a²+b²+2ab. Of course I know it doesn't matter, but still strange to see it this way.

It makes more sense to me because, when binomials are taught, it's usually in the form of a variable and a constant.

E.G. a = x, b = 3: (x + 3)^2. When expanded, that's usually x^2 + 6x + 9, and not x^2 + 9 + 6x.

Exactly, you are going to lower and lower powers. (Is power the word in English here?)

ax², bx¹, cx⁰

[–] [email protected] 22 points 11 months ago

Right, but if you look in the field of probabilities, specifically when expanding binomial distributions, you go increasing powers with one and decreasing powers with the other.

ax^4 + bx^3y + cx^2y^2 + dxy^3 + ey^4

That's why it makes sense to me to read it a^2 + 2ab + b^2

A less maths-y approach: a is blue, b is red, ab is ~~pink~~ purple. How would you order them?
