Solution: Let x = 23.43¯¯¯¯¯

or x = 23.4343… ….(i)

100x = 2343.4343… …(ii) [Multiplying eqn. (i) by 100] 99x = 2320 [Subtracting (i) from (ii)

x = 2320

Question 3. Let ‘a’ be a non-zero rational number and ‘b’ be an irrational number. Is ‘ab’ necessarily an irrational ? Justify your answer with example.

Solution: Yes, ‘ab’ is necessarily an irrational.

For example, let a = 2 (a rational number) and b = √2 (an irrational number)

If possible let ab = 2√2 is a rational number.

Now, aba = 22√2 = √2 is a rational number.

[The quotient of two non-zero rational number is a rational] But this contradicts the fact that √2 is an irrational number.

Thus, our supposition is wrong.

Hence, ab is an irrational number.

Question 1. Express 1.32 + 0.35 as a fraction in the simplest form.

Solution: Let . x = 1.32 = 1.3222…..(i)

Multiplying eq. (i) by 10, we have

10x = 13.222…

Again, multiplying eq. (i) by 100, we have

100x = 132.222… …(iii)

Subtracting eq. (ii) from (iii), we have

100x – 10x = (132.222…) – (13.222…)

90x = 119

⇒ x = 11990

Again, y = 0.35 = 0.353535……

Multiply (iv) by 100, we have …(iv)

100y = 35.353535… (v)

Subtracting (iv) from (u), we have

100y – y = (35.353535…) – (0.353535…)

99y = 35

y = 3599

Question 8. Find ‘x’, if 2x-7 × 5x-4 = 1250.

Solution: We have 2x-7 × 5x-4 = 1250

 2x-7 × 5x-4 = 2 5 × 5 × 5 × 5

2x-7 × 5x-4 = 21 × 54

Equating the powers of 2 and 5 from both sides, we have

 x – 7 = 1 and x – 4 = 4

x = 8 and x = 8

Hence, x = 8 is the required value.

(ii) (x – 2y – 3z)2

Solution: (i)

(y – √3)2 = y2 -2 × y × √3 + (√3)2 = y2 – 2√3 y + 3 (x – 2y – 3z)2

= x2 + 1 – 2y)2 + (-3z)2 + 2 × x × (-2y) + 2 × (-2y) × (-3z) + 2 × (-3z) × x

= x2 + 4y2 + 9z2 – 4xy + 12yz – 6zx

Question 3. Show that p – 1 is a factor of p10 + p8 + p6 – p4 – p2 – 1.

Solution:

Let f(p) = p10 + p8 + p6 – p4 – p2 – 1

Put p = 1, we obtain

f(1) = 110 + 18 + 16 – 14 – 12 – 1

= 1 + 1 + 1 – 1 – 1 – 1 = 0

Hence, p – 1 is a factor of p10 + p8 + p6 – p4 – p2 – 1.

Question 4. If 3x + 2y = 12 and xy = 6, find the value of 27x+ 8y3

Solution:

We have 3x + 2y = 12

On cubing both sides, we have

⇒ (3x + 2y)3 = 123

⇒ (3x)3 +(2y)3 + 3 × 3x × 2y(3x + 2y) = √728

⇒ 27x3+ 8y3 + 18xy(3x + 2y) = √728

⇒ 27x3+ 8y3 + 18 × 6 × 12 = √728

⇒ 27x3+ 8y3 + 1296 = √728

⇒ 27x3+ 8y3 = √728 – 1296

⇒ 27x3+ 8y3 = 432

Question 5. Factorize : 4x2 + 9y2 + 16z22 + 12xy – 24 yz – 16xz.

Solution: 4x2 + 9y2 + 16z22 + 12xy – 24yz – 16xz

= (2x)2 + (3y)2 + (-4z)2 + 2(2x)(3y) + 2(3y)(= 42) + 2(- 42)(2x)

By using a2 + b2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca = (a + b + c)2, we obtain

= (2x + 3y – 4z)2 = (2x + 3y – 4z) (2x + 3y – 4z)

Question 6. Factorize : 1 – 2ab – (a2 + b2).

Solution: 1 – 2ab – (a2 + b2) = 1 – (a2 + b2 + 2ab)

Question . Factorize 64a3 – 27b3 – 144a2b + 108ab2.

Solution:

64a2 – 27b2 – 144a2b + 108ab2

= (4a)3 – (3b)3 – 36ab(4a – 3b)

= (40)2 – (3b)3 – 3 × 4a × 3b (4a – 3b)

= (4a – 3b)3 [∵ (x – y)3 = x3 – y3 – 3xy(x – y)] = (40 – 3b) (4a – 3b) (4a – 3b)

Question. What are the possible expressions for the dimensions of a cuboid whose volume is given below ?

Volume = 12ky2 + 8ky – 20k.

Solution:

We have, volume = 12ky2 + 8ky – 20k

= 4k(3y2 + 2y – 5) = 4k(3y2 + 5y – 3y – 5)

= 4k[y(3y + 5) – 1(3y + 5)] = 4k(3y + 5) (y – 1)

∴Possible expressions for the dimensions of cuboid are 4k units, (3y + 5) units and (y – 1) units.

Question. If p(x) = x3 + 3x2 – 2x + 4, then find the value of p(2) + p(-2) – P(0).

Solution:

Here, p(x) = x3+ 3x2 – 2x + 4

Now, p(2) = 23 + 3(2)2 – 2(2) + 4

= 8 + 12 – 4 + 4 = 20

p(-2) = (-2)3 + 3(-2)2 – 21 – 2) + 4

= 8 + 12 + 4 + 4 = 12

and p(0) = 0 + 0 – 0 + 4 = 4

∴ p(2) + p(-2) – p(0) = 20 + 12 – 4 = 28.

Question. If one zero of the polynomial x2 – √3x + 40 is 5, which is the other zero ?

Solution:

Let

p(x) = x2 – √3x + 40

= x2 – 5x – 8x + 40 = x(x – 5) – 8(x – 5) = (x – 5) (x – 8)

Now, for zeroes of given polynomial, put p(x) = 0

∴ (x – 5) (x – 8) = 0

x = 5 or x = 8

⇒ Hence, other zero is 8.

Question 1. Prove that (a + b + c)3 – a3 – b3 – c3 = 3(a + b) (b + c) (c + a).

Solution:

L.H.S. = (a + b + c)3 – a3 – b3 – c3

= {(a + b + c)3 – 3} – {b3 + c3}

= (a + b + c – a) {(a + b + c)2 + a2 + a(a + b + c)} – (b + c) (b2 + c2 – bc)

= (b + c) {a2 + b2 + 2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca + a2 + a2 + ab + ac – b2 – a2 + bc)

= (b + c) (3a2 + 3ab + 3bc + 3ca}

= 3(b + c) {a2 + ab + bc + ca}

= 31b + c) {{a2 + ca) + (ab + bc)}

= 3(b + c) {a(a + c) + b(a + c)}

= 3(b + c)(a + c) (a + b)

= 3(a + b)(b + c) (c + a) = R.H.S.

Question 2. Factorize : (m + 2n)2 x2 – 22x (m + 2n) + 72.

Solution:

Let m + 2n = a

∴ (m + 2n)2 x2 – 22x (m + 2n) + 72 = a2x2 – 22ax + 72

= a2x2 – 18ax – 4ax + 72

= ax(ax – 18) – 4(ax – 18)

= (ax – 4) (ax – 18)

= {(m + 2n)x – 4)} {(m + 2n)x – 18)}

= (mx + 2nx – 4) (mx + 2nx – 18).

Question 3. If x – 3 is a factor of x2 – 6x + 12, then find the value of k. Also, find the other factor of the – polynomial for this value of k.

Solution:

Here, x – 3 is a factor of x2 – kx + 12

∴ By factor theorem, putting x = 3, we have remainder 0.

⇒ (3)2 – k(3) + 12 = 0

⇒ 9 – 3k + 12 = 0

⇒ 3k = 21

⇒ k = 7

Now, x2 – 7x + 12 = x2 – 3x – 4x + 12

= x(x – 3) – 4(x – 3)

= (x – 3) (x – 4)

Hence, the value of k is 7 and other factor is x – 4.

Question 4. Find a and b so that the polynomial x3– 10x2 + ax + b is exactly divisible by the polynomials (x – 1) and (x – 2).

Solution:

Let p(x) = x3– 10x2 + ax + b

Since p(x) is exactly divisible by the polynomials (x – 1) and (x – 2).

∴ By putting x = 1, we obtain

(1)3 – 10(1)2 + a(1) + b = 0

⇒ a + b = 9

And by putting x = 2, we obtain

(2)3 – 10(2)2 + a(2) + b = 0

8 – 40 + 2a + b = 0

⇒ 2a + b = 32

Subtracting (i) from (ii), we have

a = 23

From (i), we have 23 + b = 9 = b = -14

Hence, the values of a and b are a = 23 and b = -14

Question 5. Factorize : x2 – 6x2 + 11x – 6.

Solution:

Let p(x) = x2 – 6x2 + 11x – 6

Here, constant term of p(x) is -6 and factors of -6 are ± 1, ± 2, ± 3 and ± 6

By putting x = 1, we have

p(1) = (1)3 – 6(1)2 + 11(1) – 6 = 1 – 6 + 11 -6 = 0

∴ (x – 1) is a factor of p(x)

By putting x = 2, we have

p(2) = (2)3 – 6(2)2 + 11(2) – 6 = 8 – 24 + 22 – 6 = 0

∴ (x – 2) is a factor of p(x)

By putting x = 3, we have

p(3) = (3)3 – 6(3)2 + 11(3) – 6 = 27 – 54 + 33 – 6 = 0

∴ (x – 3) is a factor of p(x) Since p(x) is a polynomial of degree 3, so it cannot have more than three linear factors.

∴ x3 – 6x2 + 11x – 6 = k (x – 1) (x – 2) (x – 3)

By putting x = 0, we obtain

0 – 0 + 0 – 6 = k (-1) (-2) (3)

-6 = -6k

k = 1

Hence, x3 – 6x2 + 11x – 6 = (x – 1) (x – 2)(x – 3).

Question. Factorise : 6x2 – 5x2 – √3x + 12

Solution:

Let p(x) = 6x3– 5x2 – √3x + 12

Here, constant term of p(x) is 12 and factors of 12 are ± 1, ± 2, ± 3, ± 4, ± 6, ± 12.

Question. If x = 2 – √3, y = √3 – √7 and 2 = √7 – √4, find the value of x’ + 43 + 2?.

Solution:

Here, x + y + z = 2 – √3+ √3 – √7+√7 – 2 = 0

x3+ √3 + x3= 3(x)(y)(z)

= 3(2 – √3)(√3 – √7)(√7 – 2)

= 3(2√3 – 2√7 – 3 + √21)(√7 – 2)

= 3(2√21 – 14 – 3√7 + 7√3 – 4√3 + 4√7 + 6 – 2√21)

Question. If (x – a) is a factor of the polynomials x2 + px – q and x2 + rx – t, then prove that a = t−qr−p

Solution:

Let f(x) = x + px -q and g(x) = x2 + x – t

Since x-a is factor of both f(x) and g(x)

⇒ f(a) = g(a) = 0

Now, here f(a) = a2 + pa – q and

g(a) = a2 + ra- t

⇒ a2 + pa – q = a + ra – t (considering f(a) = g(a)] ⇒ pa – q = ra – t

⇒ ra – pa = t – q

⇒ a(r – p) = t – q

a = t−qr−p
