Mickey and Minnie form a very popular pairing.
It was in the 16th century that the creation of this term that concerns us now took place, and it is used primarily within the field of mathematics. At that time, it was shaped by uniting two components that came from different languages:
• The prefix “bi-”, which belongs to Latin and can be translated as “two”.
• The word “nomos”, which etymologically speaking comes from Greek and means “portion or part”.
Binomial is a notion that can be translated as “part” or “portion” . This means that a binomial is made up of two parts .
Binomial as a set of two elements
In everyday language, a binomial is usually referred to as the set of two personalities that play a relevant role in some area of social, political, artistic, etc. life. For example: “Carlos Gómez Feltri and Eduardo Aristorti form the pairing that has marked the politics of the Central American nation in the last three decades,” “The Spanish pairing became champion of the doubles tournament held in the city of Colonia,” “ Do you know any funnier pairing than the one formed by Tom and Jerry?” .
In this sense, we would have to highlight the existence, for example, of the group that was called “The Golden Binomial.” This was started by Israel Romero and Rafael Orozco, he specialized in bachata and was Colombian. In 1976, this musical group was created, which has throughout its career with compositions such as “Say what they say”, “Momentos de amor” or “La gustadera”.
Within our cultural heritage there are other very important binomials such as the one formed by the roadrunner and the coyote, Pixie and Dixie, Mickey and Minnie, the one composed of the Curie couple, the singers Romina and Albano...
The concept of binomial is used in algebra.
The concept in mathematics
For mathematics , a binomial is an algebraic expression made up of two terms . This means that any expression formed by the addition or subtraction of two terms is a binomial, which can also be known as a polynomial (that is, more than one monomial).
By adding the different exponents of each algebraic term, it is possible to reach the degree of the binomial . You need to add the exponents of both terms and then add the two totals to find the degree of the expression .
Newton binomial
Likewise, we must not overlook what is known as Newton's Binomial. It is a formula that is used with the clear purpose of finding out the powers of a binomial. As its name indicates, it was created by the English physicist and mathematician Isaac Newton. In order to carry it out, it is necessary to have various elements such as the real number or the exponent.
The binomial theorem, on the other hand, is the result provided by the development of the power of a sum . Another concept linked to the binomial is the idea of conjugate binomials , which are those that are differentiated only by the sign of the operation. It is possible to multiply conjugate binomials by squaring the monomials and subtracting them.
