Q1. For what value of a and b, the algebraic expression a3 + b3 - 3ab(a + b) equals 37.
Solution
Substituting the values of a and b from each of the given options, we get
(-2)3 + (3)3 - 3 × (-2) × 3(-2 + 3) = -8 + 27 + 18 = 37.
Hence, the value of a = -2 and b = 3 satisfies the equation : a3 + b3 -3ab(a + b)
Q2. Which of the following is not a factor of any term of the algebraic expression 17x2y - 12xy + 13y3 - 7xyz?
Solution
Looking at all the options, the first 3 options can divide one or the other term of the expression, only the last option does not divide any of the term of the given algebraic expression.
Q3. Classify the following as monomial, binomial or trinomial: (i) 2x + 3y (ii) 2x3 + 3y2 - 1 (iii) 2xy + 10 (iv) -9x4yz
Solution
(i) 2x + 3y : Binomial (ii) 2x3 + 3y2 - 1 : Trinomial (iii) 2xy + 10 : Binomial (iv) -9x4yz : Monomial
Q4. x2 - 2x + 3 - A = -3x2 + 4x - 9, then A =
Solution
x2 - 2x + 3 - A = -3x2 + 4x - 9
Thus, -A = -3x2 + 4x - 9 - (x2 - 2x + 3)
-A = -3x2 + 4x - 9 - x2 + 2x - 3
-A = -4x2 + 6x - 12
Hence, A = 4x2 - 6x + 12
Q5. Simplify: 20x - [15x3 + 5x2 - {8x2 - (4 - 2x - x3) - 5x3} - 2x].
Solution
Consider:

Q6. Find the value of expression (x + y)2 - (x - y)2, if
.
.Solution
(x + y)2 - (x - y)2
= x2 + y2 + 2xy - (x2 + y2 - 2xy)
= 4xy Putting
we get
(x + y)2 - (x - y)2 = 
we get
(x + y)2 - (x - y)2 = 
Q7. From the sum of 4x + y and 3x - 5y, subtract the sum of -6x + 2y and 7x - 5y.
Solution
We have to find: [(4x + y) + (3x - 5y)] - [(-6x + 2y) + (7x - 5y)] = [4x + y + 3x - 5y] - [-6x + 2y + 7x - 5y] = (7x - 4y) - (x - 3y) = 7x - 4y - x + 3y = 6x - y
