If x = 1; y = 2 find the values of the following expressions(i) 4x – 3y + 5(ii) x2 + y2(iii) xy + 3y – 9

Answer»

i) 4x – 3y+5

If x = 1, y = 2 then the value of 4x – 3y + 5 

= 4(1) – 3(2) + 5

= 4 – 6 + 5

= 9 – 6 = 3

ii) x2 + y2

If x = 1, y = 2, the value of x2 + y2= (1)2 + (2)2
=(1 × 1) + (2 × 2)
= 5

iii) xy + 3y – 9

If x = 1; y = 2,the value of xy + 3y – 9 

= 1 × 2 + 3(2) – 9

= 2 + 6 – 9

= 8 – 9

Find the product:(3m – 4n) (2m – 3n)

Answer»

(3m – 4n) (2m – 3n)

Suppose (a – b) and (c – d) are two binomials. By using the distributive law of multiplication over addition twice, we may find their product as given below.

(a – b) × (c – d) = a × (c – d) – b × (c – d) = (a × c – a × d) – (b × c – b × d)

= ac – ad – bc + bd

Let,

a= 3m, b= 4n, c= 2m, d= 3n

Now,

= 3m × (2m – 3n) -4n × (2m – 3n)

= [(3m × 2m) + (3m × -3n)] – [(4n × 2m) + (4n × -3n)]

= [6m2 – 9mn – 8mn + 12n2]

= [6m2 – 17mn + 12n2]

Find the products:(x2– a2) × (x - a)

Answer»

Given (x2– a2) × (x-a)

To find the product of given expression we have to use horizontal method.

In that we have to multiply each term of one expression with each term of another

Expression so by multiplying we get,

(x2– a2) × (x-a)

⇒ x2(x-a) – a2(x-a)

⇒ x3-ax2-a2x+a3

If x - y = 7 and xy = 9, find the value of x2+y2

Answer»

Given that, x – y = 7

Squaring both sides, we get

(x – y)2 = (7)2

x2 + y2 – 2xy = 49

Its given that xy = 9,

x2 + y2 – 2 (9) = 49

x2 + y2 = 49 + 18

x2 + y2 = 67

Simplify and find the value of the expression 5x2 – 4 – 3x2 + 6x + 8 + 5x – 13 when x = – 2.

Answer»

Given expression is

5x2 – 4 – 3x2 + 6x + 8 + 5x – 13  

= (5x2 – 3x2 ) + (6x + 5x) + (-4 + 8 – 13) 

= (5 – 3)x2 + (6 + 5)x + (- 9) 

= 2x2 + 11x – 9 

If x = – 2, then 2x2 + 11x – 9 

= 2(- 2)2 + 11 (- 2) – 9 

= 2(4) – 22 – 9 

= 8 – 22 – 9 

∴ If x = – 2, then 2x2 + 11x – 9 = – 23

Simplification of 2x2 + 5x – 1 + 8x + x2 + 7 – 6x + 3 – 3x2 is ………………A) 7x – 9B) – 7x + 9C) 7x + 9D) 6x + 9

Answer»

Correct option is  C) 7x + 9

2x2 + 5x - 1 + 8x + x2 + 7 - 6x + 3 - 3x2 

= 2x+ x2 - 3x2 + 5x + 8x - 6x - 1 + 7 + 3

 = (2 + 1 - 3)x2 + (5 + 8 - 6)x + 10 - 1

 = 02 + 7x + 9

 = 7x + 9

If \(x-\frac{1}{x}\) =3, find the values of \(x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}\) and \(x^4+\frac{1}{x^4}\).

Answer»

(i) Given that,

x - \(\frac{1}{x}\) = 3

Squaring both sides, we get

(x - \(\frac{1}{x}\))2 = (3)2

x2 - 2 × x × \(\frac{1}{x}\) + (\(\frac{1}{x}\))2 = 9

x2 - 2 + \(\frac{1}{x\times x}\) = 9

x2\(\frac{1}{x\times x}\) = 11

(ii) Squaring both sides, we get

(x2\(\frac{1}{x\times x}\))2 = (11)2

(x2)2 + 2 × x2 × \(\frac{1}{x\times x}\) + (\(\frac{1}{x\times x}\))2 = 121

x4 + 2 + \(\frac{1}{x\times x\times x\times x}\) = 121

x4\(\frac{1}{x\times x\times x\times x}\) = 119

If 3x+5y = 11 and xy = 2, find the value of 9x2+25y2

Answer»

Given that,

3x + 5y = 11

Squaring both sides, we get

(3x + 5y)2 = (11)2

(3x)2 + (5y)2 + 2 (3x) (5y) = 121

9x2 + 25y2 + 30xy = 121

9x2 + 25y2 + 30 (2) = 121

9x2 + 25y2 = 121 – 60

9x2 + 25y2 = 61

Find the product:(9x + 5y) (4x + 3y)

Answer»

(9x + 5y) (4x + 3y)

Suppose (a + b) and (c + d) are two binomials. By using the distributive law of multiplication over addition twice, we may find their product as given below.

(a + b) × (c + d) = a × (c + d) + b × (c + d) = (a × c + a × d) + (b × c + b × d)

= ac + ad + bc + bd

Let,

a= 9x, b= 5y, c= 4x, d= 3y

Now,

= 9x × (4x + 3y) +5y × (4x + 3y)

= [(9x × 4x) + (9x × 3y)] + [(5y × 4x) + (5y × 3y)]

= [36x2 + 27xy + 20yx + 15y2]

= [36x2 + 47xy + 15y2]

Find the value of x, if:(i) 4x = (52)2 - (48)2(ii) 14x = (47)2 - (33)2(iii) 5x = (50)2 - (40)2

Answer»

(i) 4x = 522 - 482

4x = (52 – 48) (52 + 48)

4x = 4 × 100

4x = 400

x = 100

(ii) 14x = (47)2 - (33)2

14x = (47 – 33) (47 + 33)

14x = 14 × 80

x = 80

(iii) 5x = (50)2 - (40)2

Using formula:

a2 – b2 = (a – b) (a + b), we get

5x = (50 – 40) (50 + 40)

5x = 10 × 90

5x = 900

x = 180

Find the products: (2a + (3/b)) (2a – (3/b))

Answer»

Given (2a + (3/b)) (2a – (3/b))

By using the formula (a + b) (a – b) = a– b2

Applying the formula we get

(2a + (3/b)) (2a – (3/b))= (2a)2-(3/b)2

(2a + (3/b)) (2a – (3/b))= 4a2-(3/b2)

Using the formula for squaring a binomial, evaluate the (103)2.

Answer»

Given (103)2

But we can write 103 as 100+3

And also we know that (a + b)= a2+2ab+b2

By applying the above identity we get

Using the formula for squaring a binomial, evaluate the following: (i) (69)2 (ii) (78)2 (iii) (197)2 (iv) (999)2

Answer»

(i) Given, 

(69)2 

We can also write it as; 

(70 – 1)2 

Now, 

By using the formula (a - b)2 = a2 - 2ab + b

We get, 

= (70 – 1)2 = (70)2 – 2 × 70 × 1 + (1)

= 4900 – 140 + 1 

= 4761

(ii) Given = (78)2

We can also write it as;

(80 – 2)2

Now,

By using the formula (a - b)2 = a2 - 2ab + b2

We get,

(80 – 2)2 = (80)2 – 2 × 80 × 2 + (2)2

= 6400 – 320 + 4

= 6084

(iii) (197)2

We can also write it as;

(200 – 3)2

Now,

By using the formula (a - b)2 = a2 - 2ab + b2 

We get, 

(200 – 3)2 = (200)2 – 2 × 200 × 3 + (3)

= 40000 – 1200 + 9 

= 38809

(iv) (999)2 

We can also write it as; 

(1000 – 1)2 

Now, 

By using the formula (a - b)2 = a2 - 2ab + b

We get, 

(1000 - 1)2 = (1000)2 – 2 × 1000 × 1 + (1)

= 1000000 – 2000 + 1 

= 998001

Using the formula for squaring a binomial, evaluate the following: (i) (54)2 (ii) (82)2 (iii) (103)2 (iv) (704)2

Answer»

(i) Given, 

(54)2 

If we break the given number we get; 

(50 + 4)2 

Now we can use the (a + b)2 = a2 + b2 + 2ab 

So, 

= (50 + 4)2 = (50)2 + (4)2 + 2 × 50 × 4 

= 2500 + 16 + 400 

= 2916

(ii) (82)2 

We can also write it as; 

(80 + 2)

By using the formula (a + b)2 = a2 + b2 + 2ab 

We get, 

= (80 + 2)2 = (80)2 + (2)2 + 2 × 80 × 2 

= 6400 + 4 + 320 = 6724

(iii) (103)2 

We can also write it as; 

(100 + 3)

By using the formula (a + b)2 = a2 + b2 + 2ab 

We get, 

(100 + 3)2 = (100)2 + (3)2 + 2 × 100 × 3 

= 10000 + 9 + 600 

= 10609

(iv) (704)2 

We can also write it as; 

(700 + 4)2 

By using the formula (a + b)2 = a2 + b2 + 2ab 

We get, 

= (700 + 4)2 = (700)2 + (4)2 + 2 × 700 × 4 

= 490000 + 16 + 5600 

= 495616

Answer»

(i) 103 × 104 = (100 + 3) (100 + 4)

= (100)2 + (3 + 4) (100) + (3) (4)

= 10000 + 700 + 12 = 10712

(ii) 5.1 × 5.2 = (5 + 0.1) (5 + 0.2) 

= (5)2 + (0.1 + 0.2) (5) + (0.1) (0.2) 

= 25 + 1.5 + 0.02 = 26.52

(iii) 103 × 98 = (100 + 3) (100 − 2)

= (100)2 + [3 + (− 2)] (100) + (3) (− 2)

= 10000 + 100 − 6

= 10094

(iv) 9.7 × 9.8 = (10 − 0.3) (10 − 0.2)

= (10)2 + [(− 0.3) + (− 0.2)] (10) + (− 0.3) (− 0.2)

= 100 + (− 0.5)10 + 0.06 = 100.06 − 5 = 95.06

Simplify the algebraic expressions by removing grouping symbols.a – [2b – {3a – (2b – 3c)}]

Answer»

Given a – [2b – {3a – (2b – 3c)}]

First we have to remove the parentheses, then the braces, and then the square brackets.

Then we get,

= a – [2b – {3a – (2b – 3c)}]

= a – [2b – {3a – 2b + 3c}]

= a – [2b – 3a + 2b – 3c]

= a – [4b – 3a – 3c]

On simplifying we get,

= a – 4b + 3a + 3c

= 4a – 4b + 3c

State whether the statements are true (T) or false (F)Common factor of 11pq2, 121p2q3, 1331p2q is 11p2q2.

Answer»

False

Common factors of 11pq2, 121p2q3 and 1331p2q can be found out as:

Common factors (11pq2, 121p2q3, 1331p2q) = Common factors (11×pq, 11×11p2q3, 11×121p2q)

⇒ Common factors (11pq2, 121p2q3, 1331p2q) = 11

[∵, 11 divides all the three term 11pq2, 121p2q3 and 1331p2q; p divides all the three terms 11pq2, 121p2q3 and 1331p2q; and q divides all the three terms 11pq2, 121p2q3 and 1331p2q]

Find the products:(7a + 9b) (7a + 9b)

Answer»

Given that (7a +9b) (7a +9b)

But we can write the given expression as (7a +9b) (7a +9b) = (7a +9b)2

But we have (a + b)2=a2+2ab+b2

On applying above identity in the given expression we get,

(7a +9b)2= (7a)2+2 (7a) (9b) + (9b)2

(7a +9b)2= 49a2+126 x + 81y2

State whether the statements are true (T) or false (F)h is a factor of 2π (h+r).

Answer»

False

Factorizing 2π (h + r), we get

2π (h + r) = 2π × (h + r)

⇒ There are three factors of 2π (h + r) namely, 2, π and (h + r).

But h is not any factor of 2π (h + r).
