Expert Answer:
Do it systematically, for example,
(a+b)n = an + nan-1b + n(n-1)an-2b2/(1.2) + n(n-1)(n-2)an-3b3/(1.2.3) +.................+ bn
Comparing (1-2x)5 we write, a = 1 and b = -2x.
(1-2x)5 = (1)5 - 5(1)5-1(2x)1 + 5x4(1)5-2(-2x)2/(1.2) + 5(5-1)(5-2)(1)5-3(-2x)3/(1.2.3) +
5(5-1)(5-2)(5-3)15-4(-2x)4/(1.2.3.4) + 5(5-1)(5-2)(5-3)(5-4)15-5(-2x)5/(1.2.3.4.5)
= 1 - 10x + 40x2 - 80x3 + 80x4 - 32x5
