Question
![Use the binomial series to expand the function as a power series.
\[ f(x) = \frac{1}{(2-x)^2} \]
Options:
1. \(\displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{1}{2} \binom{-2}{n} \left(-\frac{x}{4}\right)^n\)
2. \(\displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \binom{-2}{n} \left(-\frac{x}{4}\right)^n\)
3. \(\displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \binom{-2}{n} \left(-\frac{x}{2}\right)^n\) (Selected)
4. \(\displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{1}{4} \binom{-2}{n} \left(-\frac{x}{2}\right)^n\) (Incorrect - indicated by a red cross)
Explanation: The problem requires expanding the given function \( f(x) = \frac{1}{(2-x)^2} \) using the binomial series. The correct expression for the power series is option 3, where the series is expressed in terms of \((-2)\), \(n\), \((-x/2)\), and the binomial coefficient.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F877d147a-40f9-47d8-b25c-41d77d376d71%2F2e9e644d-060b-44c2-8103-d168a87d0941%2Foxjelys_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
