... Theorem: C(n,k) = ((n-k+1)/k) C(n,k-1). Application: n=6: 1,6,15,20,15,6,1. Proof: This formula can be rewritten as C(n,k) k = C(n,k-1) (n-k+1). To prove this, note that both sides count the number of ways to pick k students from a class of size n to form a committee and elect one of the k students ...
