Simplify the following: (i) (x - 2y) (y – 3x) + (x + y) (x - 3y) – (y – 3x) (4x – 5y)(ii) (m + n) (m2 – mn + n2 )

Answer»

i) (x – 2y) (y – 3x) + (x + y) (x – 3y) – (y – 3x) (4x – 5y)

= (y – 3x) [x – 2y – (4x – 5y)] + (x + y)(x – 3y)

= (y – 3x) [x – 2y – 4x + 5y] + (x + y) (x – 3y)

= (y – 3x) (3y – 3x) + (x + y) (x – 3y)

= y(3y – 3x) – 3x(3y – 3x) + x(x – 3y) + y(x – 3y)

= 3y2 – 3xy – 9xy + 9x2 + x2 – 3xy + xy – 3y2

= 10x2 – 14xy

ii) (m + n) (m– mn + n2)

= m(m2 – mn + n2) + n(m2 – mn + n2)

= m3 – m2n + n2m + nm2 – mn2 + n3

= m3 + n3
