Question 2
Classify the following polynomials as monomials, binomials, trinomials. Which polynomials do not fit in any of these three 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
x + y: Binomial
1000: Monomial
x + x²+ x³+ x⁴:Polynomial
7 + y + 5x:Binomial
2y - 3y²: Binomial
2y - 3y²+ 4y³: Trinomial
5x - 4y + 3xy:Trinomial
4z - 15z²: Binomial
ab + bc + cd + da:Polynomial
pqr:Monomial
p²q + pq²: Binomial
2p + 2q:Binomial

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 (i) (ab - bc) + (bc - ca) + (ca-ab)
= ab + bc + ca - bc - ca - ab
= 0
(ii) (a - b + ab) + (b - c + bc) + (c - a + ac)
= a + b + c + ab + bc + ca - b - c - a
= 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 2a - 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: 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) (12a - 9ab + 5b - 3) - (4a - 7ab + 3b + 12)
= 12a - 9ab + 5b - 3 - 4a + 7ab - 3b - 12
=8a - 2ab + 2b - 15
(b) (5xy - 2yz - 2zx + 10xyz) - (3xy + 5yz - 7zx)
= 5xy - 2yz - 2zx + 10xyz - 3xy - 5yz + 7zx
= 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
= 28 + 5p - 18q + 8pq - 7pq² - p²q
