Problem 1 :
Expand : (2x + 3y)2
Solution :
We have
(a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2
Substitute a = 2x and b = 3y.
(2x + 3y)2 = (2x)2 + 2(2x)(3y) + (3y)2
= 22x2 + 2(2x)(3y) + 32y2
= 4x2 + 12xy + 9y2
Problem 2 :
Expand : (4a - 5b)2
Solution :
We have
(a - b)2 = a2 - 2ab + b2
Substitute a = 4a and b = 5b.
(4a - 5b)2 = (4a)2 - 2(4a)(5b) + (5b)2
= 42a2 - 40ab + 52b2
= 16p2 - 40ab + 25b2
Problem 3 :
Expand : (5p + 4q)(5p - 4q)
Solution :
We have
(a + b)(a - b) = a2 - b2
Substitute a = 5p and b = 4q.
(5p + 4q)(5p - 4q) = (5p)2 - (4q)2
= 52p2 - 42q2
= 25p2 - 16q2
Problem 4 :
Expand (3x - 4y)3.
Solution :
We know that
(a + b)3 = a3 + 3a2b + 3ab2 + b3
Substitute a = 3x, and b = -4y.
(3x - 4y)3 = (3x)3 + 3(3x)2(-4y) + 3(3p)(-4q)2 + (-4y)3
= 27x3 + 3(9x2)(-4y) + 3(3x)(16y2) + (-64y3)
= 27x3 - 108x2y + 144xy2 - 64y3
Problem 5 :
Expand (x + 1/y)3.
Solution :
We know that
(a + b)3 = a3 + 3a2b + 3ab2 + b3
Substitute a = x, and b = 1/y.
(x + 1/y)3 = x3 + 3(x)2(1/y) + 3(x)(1/y)2 + (1/y)3
= x3 + 3x2/y + 3x/y2 + 1/y3
Problem 6 :
Evaluate using identity : 983.
Solution :
983 = (100 - 2)3
We know that
(a + b)3 = a3 + 3a2b + 3ab2 + b3
Substitute a = 100, and b = -2.
(100 - 2)3 = 1003 + 3(100)2(-2) + 3(100)(-2)2 + (-2)3
983 = 1000000 + 3(10000)(-2) + 3(100)(4) - 8
= 1000000 - 60000 + 1200 - 8
= 941192
Problem 7 :
Evaluate using identity : 10013.
Solution :
10013 = (1000 + 1)3
We know that
(a + b)3 = a3 + 3a2b + 3ab2 + b3
Substitute a = 1000, and b = 1.
(1000 + 1)3 = 10003 + 3(1000)2(1) + 3(1000)(1)2 + (1)3
(1001)3 = 10003 + 3(1000)2(1) + 3(1000)(1)2 + (1)3
= 1000000000 + 3(1000000)(1) + 3(1000)(1) + 1
= 1000000000 + 3000000 + 3000 + 1
= 1003003001
Problem 8 :
Find 8x3 + 27y3, if 2x + 3y = 13 and xy = 6.
Solution :
We know that
a3 + b3 = (a + b)3 - 3ab(a + b)
Substitute a = 2x, and b = 3y.
(2x)3 + (3y)3 = (2x + 3y)3 - 3(2x)(3y)(2x + 3y)
8x3 + 27y3 = (2x + 3y)3 - 18(xy)(3x + 4y)
Substitute 2x + 3y = 13 and xy = 6.
8x3 + 27y3 = (13)3 - 18(6)(13)
= 2197 - 1404
= 793
Problem 9 :
Expand : (p + 2q + 3)2
Solution :
We know that
(a + b + c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2(ab + bc + ac)
Substitute a = p, b = 2q and c = 3.
(p + 2q + 3)2 = p2 + (2q)2 + 32 + 2[(p)(2q) + (2q)(3) + (p)(3)]
= p2 + 4q2 + 9 + 2[2pq + 6q + 3p]
= p2 + 4q2 + 9 + 4pq + 12q + 6p
= p2 + 4q2 + 6p + 12q + 4pq + 9
Problem 10 :
Expand : (x + 2y - 3z)2
Solution :
We know that
(a + b + c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2(ab + bc + ac)
Substitute a = x, b = 2y and c = -3z.
(x + 2y - 3z)2
= x2 + (2y)2 + (-3z)2 + 2[(x)(2y) + (2y)(-3z) + (x)(-3z)]
= x2 + 4y2 + 9z2 + 2[2xy - 6yz - 3xz]
= x2 + 4y2 + 9z2 + 4xy - 12yz - 6xz
Problem 11 :
If (x + y + z) = 9 and (xy + yz + zx) = 26, then find the value of x2 + y2 + z2.
Solution :
We know that
(x + y + z)2 = x2 + y2 + z2 + 2(xy + yz + xz)
Then,
x2 + y2 + z2 = (x + y + z)2 - 2(xy + yz + xz)
Substitute (x + y + z) = 9 and (xy + yz + zx) = 26.
x2 + y2 + z2 = 92 - 2(26)
= 81 - 52
= 29
Problem 12 :
If (x + a)(x + b)(x + c) = x3 - 10x2 + 45x - 15, then find the values of the following.
(i) a + b + c
(ii) 1/a +1/b + 1/c
(iii) a2 + b2 + c2
Solution :
(x + a)(x + b)(x + c) = x3 - 10x2 + 45x - 15
x3 + (a + b + c)x2 + (ab + bc + ca)x + abc = x3- 10x2 + 45x - 15
Comparing the coefficients of x2, x and constant term,
a + b + c = -10
ab + bc + ca = 45
abc = -15
(i) a + b + c :
a + b + c = -10
(ii) 1/a + 1/b + 1/c :
Least common multiple of (a, b, c) = abc.
1/a + 1/b + 1/c = (bc/abc) + (ac/abc) + (ab/abc)
= (ab + bc ac)/abc
Substitute (ab + bc + ac) = 45 and abc = -15.
= 45/(-15)
= -3
(ii) a2 + b2 + c2 :
a2 + b2 + c2 = (a + b + c)2 - 2(ab + bc + ac)
Substitute (a + b + c) = -10 and (ab + bc + ac) = 45.
= (-10)2 - 2(45)
= 100 - 90
= 10
