Verify the theorem Using frimage below 

for x = 5, n = 5 Show all work related to finding the values of S(n,k) that appear in the summa

n
ΣS(n, k) x(x - 1). · · (x − k + 1) = x².
.
k=1
Transcribed Image Text:n ΣS(n, k) x(x - 1). · · (x − k + 1) = x². . k=1
Expert Solution
Step 1:

S(n, k) is known as the Sterling number of second kind. 

S(n, k) can be calculated using the formula :

S(n, k) = S(n–1,k–1) + k.S(n–1,k)

Some of the properties :-

  • S(n, n) = 1
  • S(n,0) = 0
  • S(n,1) = 1
