Question 1 :-

Use direct method to evaluate the following products :
(i) (x + 8)(x + 3)
(ii) (y + 5)(y – 3)
(iii) (a – 8)(a + 2)

(vi) (5a + 16)(3a – 7)
(vii) (8 – b) (3 + b)
Answer :-

(i)

(x + 8) (x + 3)

= (x × x) + (x × 3) + (8 × x) + (8 × 3)

= x2 + 3x + 8x + 24

= x2 + 11x + 24

(ii)

(y + 5) (y – 3) = (y × y) + (y × −3) + (5 × y) + (5 × −3)

(v)

(3x – 2y) (2x + y) = (3x × 2x) + (3x × y) + (−2y × 2x) + (−2y × y)

= 6x2 + 3xy − 4xy − 2y

= 6x2 − xy − 2y2

(vi)

(5a + 16) (3a – 7) = (5a × 3a) + (5a × −7) + (16 ×  3a) + 16 −7

= 15a2 + (−35a) + 48a + (−112)

= 15a− 35a + 48a − 112

= 15a2 + 13a − 112

(vii)

(8 – b) (3 + b) = (8 × 3) + (8 × b) + (−b × 3) + (−b × b)

= 24 + 8b − 3b − b2

= 24 + 5b − b2

Question 18 :-

The sum of the squares of two numbers is 13 and their product is 6. Find:
(i) the sum of the two numbers.
(ii) the difference between them.
Answer :-

Let x and y be the two numbers, then,

x2 + y2 = 13 and xy = 6

(i) (x + y)2 = x2 + y2 + 2xy

= 13 + 2×6

= 13 + 12

= 25

∴ x + y = ± √25 = ±5

(ii) (x − y)2 = x2 + y− 2xy

= 13 − 12

= 1

∴ x − y = ±1

Question 10 :-

If a + b + c = 9 and ab + bc + ca = 15, find: a2 + b2 + c2.
Answer :-

Since (a + b + c)= a2 + b2 + c2 + 2 (ab + bc + ca)

∴ (9)2 = a2 + b+ c2 + 2 (15)

81 = a+ b2 + c2 + 30

∴ a2 + b2 + c= 81 − 30 = 51

Question 11 :-

If a + b + c = 11 and a2 + b2 + c2 = 81, find ab + bc + ca.
Answer :-

Since (a + b + c)2 = a+ b2 + c2 + 2 (ab + bc + ca)

∴ (11)2 = 81 + 2 (ab + bc + ca)

∴ 2(ab + bc + ca) = 121 − 81 = 40

ab + bc + ca = 40/2

⇒ ab + bc + ca = 20

= 512 − 360

= 152

Question 14 :-

If 3x + 2y = 9 and xy = 3, find : 27x3 + 8y3
Answer :-

27x3 + 8y3 = (3x)3 + (2y)3

= (3x + 2y)3 − 3.3x . 2y (3x + 2y)

= (3x − 2y)3 − 18xy (3x + 2y)

= (9)− 18(3) (9)

Answer :-

125x3 − 64y3 = (5x)3 − (4y)3

= (5x − 4y)3 + 3(5x) (4y) (5x − 4y)

= (5x − 4y)3 + 60xy (5x − 4y)

= (7)+ 60 (8) (7)

= 3703

Question 16 :-

The difference between two numbers is 5 and their products is 14. Find the difference between their cubes.
Answer :-

Let x and y be two numbers, then x – y = 5 and xy = 14

∴ x3 − y3 = (x − y)3 + 3xy(x − y)

= (5)3 + 3 × 14 × 5

= 125 + 210

= 335
