2, c
2+ a
2, 2ab + 2bc + 2ac
Solution
(i) ab - bc+ ac + bc - ca+ ab +ca - ab-2bc=ab-2bc+ac
(ii)p - q + pq + q - r + qr + r - p + pr + p+q+r=p+q+pq+r+qr+pr
(iii)2p2q2- 3pq + 4 + 5 + 7pq - 3p2q2 + 4p2q2 + 10pq=3p2q2+14pq+9
(iv) a2+ b2+ b2+ c2+ c2+ a2+ 2ab + 2bc + 2ac=2(a2+ b2+c2+ab+bc+ac)
Question 4.
(a) Subtract 8a - 7ab + 3b - 20 from 20a - 9ab + 5b - 20
(b) Subtract 3pq + 5qr - 7pr+1 from -4pq +2qr - 2pr + 5pqr+1
(c) Subtract 4p
2q - 4pq - 5pq
2 - 8p + 7q - 18
from 18 - 3p - 11q + 5pq - 2pq
2+ 5p
2q
Solution
While subtracting, we need to remember signs are reversed after –sign once bracket is opened
ie. + becomes - and - becomes +
Let solve the below question keeping that in mind
(a) 20a - 9ab + 5b - 20 -(8a - 7ab + 3b - 20)=20a - 9ab + 5b - 20-8a +7ab-3b+20 =12a+2b -2ab
(b) -4pq +2qr - 2pr + 5pqr+1 -( 3pq + 5qr - 7pr+1 )=-4pq +2qr - 2pr + 5pqr+1 -3pq-5qr+7pr-1=-7pq -3qr+5pr+5pqr
(c) 18 - 3p - 11q + 5pq - 2pq2+ 5p2q -(4p2q - 4pq - 5pq2 - 8p + 7q - 18)= 18 - 3p - 11q + 5pq - 2pq2+ 5p2q -4p2q+4pq +5pq2+8p-7q+18=36-3p-18q+9pq+3pq2+5p2q -4p2q
