Question - 2 : -

Classify the following polynomials asmonomials, binomials, trinomials. Which polynomials do not fit in any of thesethree categories?x + y, 1000, x + x2 +x3 +x4 ,7 + y + 5x, 2y – 3y2 ,2y – 3y2 +4y3 ,5x – 4y + 3xy, 4z – 15z2 ,ab + bc + cd + da, pqr, p2q+ pq2 ,2p + 2q

Answer - 2 : -

Let us first define the classifications of these 3 polynomials:
Monomials, Contain only one term.
Binomials, Contain only two terms.
Trinomials, Contain only three terms.

Question - 3 : -

Add the following.

(i) ab – bc, bc – ca, ca – ab

(ii) a – b + ab, b – c + bc, c – a + ac

(iii) 2p2q2 – 3pq + 4, 5 + 7pq – 3p2q2

(iv) l2 +m2, m2 + n2, n2 + l2, 2lm +2mn + 2nl

 

Answer - 3 : -

i) (ab – bc) + (bc – ca) + (ca-ab)

= ab – bc + bc – ca + ca – ab

= ab – ab – bc + bc – ca + ca

= 0

ii) (a– b + ab) + (b – c + bc) + (c – a + ac)

= a – b + ab + b – c + bc + c – a + ac

= a – a +b – b +c – c + ab + bc + ca

= 0 + 0 + 0 + ab + bc + ca

= ab + bc + ca

iii) 2p2q2 – 3pq + 4, 5 + 7pq – 3p2q2

= (2p2q2 – 3pq + 4) + (5 + 7pq – 3p2q2)

= 2p2q2 – 3p2q2 – 3pq + 7pq + 4 + 5

= – p2q2 + 4pq + 9

iv)(l2 + m2) + (m2 + n2) + (n2 + l2) +(2lm + 2mn + 2nl)

= l2 +l2 +m2 +m2 +n2 +n2 +2lm + 2mn + 2nl

= 2l2 +2m2 +2n2 +2lm + 2mn + 2nl

 

Question - 4 : -

(a) Subtract 4a – 7ab + 3b + 12 from 12a – 9ab + 5b – 3

(b) Subtract 3xy + 5yz – 7zx from 5xy – 2yz – 2zx + 10xyz

 (c) Subtract 4p2q – 3pq + 5pq2 –8p + 7q – 10 from 18 – 3p – 11q + 5pq – 2pq2 + 5p2q

Answer - 4 : -

(a) (12a – 9ab + 5b – 3) – (4a – 7ab + 3b+ 12)

= 12a – 9ab + 5b – 3 – 4a + 7ab – 3b – 12

= 12a – 4a -9ab + 7ab +5b – 3b -3 -12

= 8a – 2ab + 2b – 15

b) (5xy– 2yz – 2zx + 10xyz) – (3xy + 5yz – 7zx)

= 5xy – 2yz – 2zx + 10xyz – 3xy – 5yz + 7zx

=5xy – 3xy – 2yz – 5yz – 2zx + 7zx + 10xyz

= 2xy – 7yz + 5zx + 10xyz

c) (18– 3p – 11q + 5pq – 2pq2 +5p2q) – (4p2q – 3pq + 5pq2 –8p + 7q – 10)

= 18 – 3p – 11q + 5pq – 2pq2 +5p2q – 4p2q + 3pq – 5pq2 +8p – 7q + 10

=18+10 -3p+8p -11q – 7q + 5 pq+ 3pq- 2pq^2 – 5pq^2 + 5 p^2 q –4p^2 q

= 28 + 5p – 18q + 8pq – 7pq2 + p2q
