False. The SUM of the exponents of each term is n.

(a+b)^n = a^n b^0 + a^(n-1) b^1 + ......

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

In any binomial expansion of the form

[tex](x+a)^n = \Sigma_0^n nCr x^{n-r} a^{r}[/tex]

We find that each term has decreasing powers of x by 1 and increasing powers of a by 1, such that the sum of exponents is always n

Hence product of exponents of each term cannot be n.

The given statement is false.

Only the sum of the exponents of each term in a binomial expansion has degree n
