How can one derive the relation $$(x+y)^r = x^r + r x^{r-1} y + \frac{r(r-1)}{2!} x^{r-2} y^2 + \frac{r(r-1)(r-2)}{3!} x^{r-3} y^3 + \cdots.$$

if x and y are real numbers with $|x| > |y|$ and $r$ is any complex number

Use Maclaurin series expansion method considering y as a constant and 1st putting 0 in it you will get y^t Then take first derivative and put 0 instead of x and multiply by x and proceed.
