Question 3
Find and correct the errors in the statement: (3x)2 + 5x = 9x + 5x = 14x

Answer

LHS = (2x)2 + 5x =4x2+5x
RHS = 9x + 5x = 14x
Third = 14x
LHS≠ RHS =third part
Correct statement would be
(3x)2 + 5x = 9x2+5x


Question 4
Find and correct the errors in the statement: (4x + 2)2 = 2x2 + 16x + 4

Answer

LHS = (4x + 2)2 =16x2 +16x+4
RHS = 2x2 + 16x + 4
LHS≠ RHS
Correct statement would be
(4x + 2)2 =16x2 +16x+4


Question 5 
Find and correct the errors in the statement: (z - 1)2 = z2 - 1

Answer

LHS = (z - 1)2 =z2 -2z+1
RHS = z2 - 1
LHS≠ RHS
Correct statement would be
(z - 1)2 =z2 -2z+1


Question 6
Find and correct the errors in the statement: (y + 6)2 = y2 + 36

Answer

LHS=( y + 6)2 =y2 +12z+36
RHS = y2 + 36
LHS≠ RHS
Correct statement would be
( y + 6)2 =y2 +12z+36


Question 7
Verify that
(11m + 4n)2  – (11mn – 4n)2 = 176mn2

Answer

LHS=(11m + 4n)2  – (11mn – 4n)2 = $121m^2 + 16n^2 + 88mn -(121m^2n^2 + 16n^2 -88mn^2)=121m^2 -121m^2n^2 + 88mn + 88mn^2$ RHS = 176mn2
LHS≠ RHS
. So this is incorrect
Correct statement would be
$(11m + 4n)^2 -(11mn -4n)^2 =121m^2 -121m^2n^2 + 88mn + 88mn^2$


Question 8
True and false
(a) The value of (a + 1) (a – 1) (a2 + 1) is a4 + 1.
(b) x + y+ z is a monomial
(c) Some of the factors of $\frac {p^2}{2} + \frac {p}{2}$ are p,1/2 and (p+1)
(d)if xy=20 and (x- y) =1, the value (x+y) =9

Answer

(a) False
(b) False
(c) True
(d) True


Question 9
Factorise
$x^2 + \frac {1}{x^2} + 2 -3x - \frac{3}{x}$

Answer

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


Question 10
The Length and breadth of the rectangle is (x+y) and (x-y) respectively. What is the area of the rectangle

Answer

Area= Length x Breath
Therefore
Area is =$(x+y)(x-y)= x^2 -y^2$


Question 11
What should be added to 4c(-a + b + c) to obtain 3a (a + b + c) - 2b (a - b + c)?

Answer

Let y is to be Added, then
$y + 4c(-a + b + c)=3a (a + b + c) - 2b (a - b + c)$
$y=3a (a + b + c) - 2b (a - b + c) - 4c(-a + b + c)=3a^2 + 3ab + 3ac -2ab +2b^2 -2bc +4ac -4bc-4c^2=3a^2 + ab+ 7ac + 2b^2 - 6bc -4c^2$
