find value of C0+(C0+C1)+(C0+C1+C2)+(C0+C1+C2+C3)...

Cr represent nCr
find the value of C0+(C0+C1)+(C0+C1+C2)+(C0+C1+C2+C3)...(C0+C1+C2+C3+...Cn)

How i did it
C0+C1+C2+...Cn=(1+1)n
so
C0=(1+1)0
C0+C1=(1+1)1 ( here n is 1)
C0+C1+C2=(1+1)2 (here n is 2)
.
.
.

so the required question is changed into following
20+21+22+23+...+2n
that's Geometric progression
so it should equal to 2n-1

where i have done it wrong

Your notation is ambiguous. If Cr = nCr, then I would think that
C0 = nC0 = 1,
C0 + C1 = nC0 + nC1 = 1 + n,
C0 + C1 + C2 = nC0 + nC1 + nC2 = 1 + n + n(n+1)/2.

It looks like when you were finding
C0+(C0+C1)+(C0+C1+C2)+(C0+C1+C2+C3)...(C0+C1+C2+C3+...Cn)
you were actually finding
0C0 + (1C0 + 1C0) + (2C0 + 2C0 + 2C0) + ... + (nC0 + nC0 + nC0 + ... + nC0).

So which one are you looking for, exactly?

my question was correct.
You did not answer the question but you answer you have solved my problem. that is always nCr. I take different values of n. that's what i was doing wrong.
Thanks Bcz you put out difference in my answer and question.
:smile:Thanks friend.:smile:

Assuming you mean C(k) = nCk for k = 0, 1, 2, ..., n, your sum, S, can be expressed as
[tex] \begin{array}{l}S = (n+1)C(0) + n C(1) + (n-1) C(2) + \cdots + C(n) \\
\mbox{ } = (n+1)[C(0) + C(1) + \cdots + C(n)] - [C(1) + 2C(2) + \cdots + nC(n)],
\end{array}[/tex]
and this last sum can be computed (do you see how?)

1. What is the purpose of finding the value of C0+(C0+C1)+(C0+C1+C2)+(C0+C1+C2+C3)?

The purpose of finding the value of this expression is to solve for the sum of a series of numbers that follow a specific pattern. Knowing the value of this expression can be useful in various mathematical and scientific calculations.

2. How do you find the value of C0+(C0+C1)+(C0+C1+C2)+(C0+C1+C2+C3)?

To find the value of this expression, you can use the formula for the sum of an arithmetic series which is Sn = n/2[2a + (n-1)d], where n is the number of terms, a is the first term, and d is the common difference. In this case, n = 4, a = C0, and d = 1. So, the expression can be simplified to 4/2[2C0 + (4-1)1] = 4C0 + 6. Therefore, the value of C0+(C0+C1)+(C0+C1+C2)+(C0+C1+C2+C3) is 4C0 + 6.

3. Can you provide an example of how to use this expression in a scientific context?

Yes, this expression can be used in many scientific contexts. For example, if you are studying the growth of a population over time, the expression can help you calculate the total number of individuals in the population after a certain number of generations. You can also use it to find the total distance traveled by an object accelerating at a constant rate over a period of time.

4. Is there a shortcut to finding the value of C0+(C0+C1)+(C0+C1+C2)+(C0+C1+C2+C3)?

Yes, there is a shortcut called the triangular number shortcut. It states that the sum of the first n positive integers is equal to n(n+1)/2. In this case, n = 4, so the sum of the first 4 positive integers is 4(4+1)/2 = 10. Therefore, the value of C0+(C0+C1)+(C0+C1+C2)+(C0+C1+C2+C3) is 10C0 = 10.

5. Can this expression be expanded to include more terms?

Yes, this expression can be expanded to include any number of terms. The formula for the sum of an arithmetic series can be applied to any number of terms, so you can use it to find the value of C0+(C0+C1)+(C0+C1+C2)+...+(C0+C1+C2+...+Cn). However, as the number of terms increases, the calculation becomes more complex and it may be easier to use a calculator or a computer program to find the value.
