Okay,
p(n, k+1)-p(n,k)
= (nk+1)pk+1qn-k-1-(nk)pkqn-k
=n!/(k!(n-k-1)!) pk+1qn-k-1- n!/(k!(n-k)!)(nk)pkqn-k
=n!/(k!(n-k-1)!) pkqn-k-1(p/(k+1)-q/(n-k))
=n!/((k+1)!(n-k)!) pkqn-k-1(np-k-q)

Hi, Yes, just simplification, you just need to "open" those combinations and then simplify.01/21/22

Hello ,I’m so grateful for your answer but I don’t understand the second step yet. It should be sth like this or any simplified calculation. n!/(k+1)!(n-k-1)!) pk+1qn-k-1- n!/(k!(n-k)!)pkqn-k01/17/22
