If n> 3 is a positive integer, then what will be the value of expression [sup:2dnkcpeb]n-3[/sup:2dnkcpeb]C[sub:2dnkcpeb]r[/sub:2dnkcpeb] + [sup:2dnkcpeb]n-3[/sup:2dnkcpeb]C[sub:2dnkcpeb]r-1[/sub:2dnkcpeb] + 3*([sup:2dnkcpeb]n-3[/sup:2dnkcpeb]C[sub:2dnkcpeb]r-2[/sub:2dnkcpeb]) + [sup:2dnkcpeb]n-3[/sup:2dnkcpeb]C[sub:2dnkcpeb]r-3[/sub:2dnkcpeb]

Are you given any information regarding the value of r, or the relationship between r and n?

What have you tried? How far have you gotten? Where are you stuck?

Please be complete. Thank you! :D
