NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths chapter 2-Polynomials/image069.png

(ii)  (2x-y+z)2

We know that.(a + b + c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca

We need to apply the above identity to expand the expression (2x-y+z)2

So comparing the above ,  a= 2x , b= -y  and c= z

therefore  (2x-y+z)2 = (2x)2 + (-y)2 + (z)2 + 2(2x)(-y) + 2(-y)z + 2z(2x)

= 4x2 + y2 + z2 - 4xy- 2yz +4zx

We know that.(a + b + c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca

We need to apply the above identity to expand the expression.

So comparing the above ,  a= -2x , b= 3y  and c= 2z

therefore  (2x-y+z)2 = (-2x)2 + (3y)2 + (2z)2 + 2(-2x)(3y) + 2(3y)(2z)z + 2(2z)(-2x)

= 4x2 + 9y2 + 4z2 - 12xy + 12yz - 8zx


(iv) (3a - 7b - c)2

We know that.(x + y + z)2 = x2 + y2 + z2 + 2xy + 2yz + 2zx

We need to apply the above identity to expand the expression.

So comparing the above ,  x = 3a , y = -7b  and z = -c

therefore  (3a - 7b - c)2 = (3a)2 + (-7b)2 + (-c)2 + 2(3a)(-7b) + 2(-7b)(-c) + 2(-c)(3a)

= 9a2 + 49b2 + c2 - 42xy + 14bc - 6ca

(2a-3b)3 = (2a)3 + (-3b)3 + 3(2a)(-3b)(2a-3b)

= 8a3 - 27b3 -18ab(2a-3b)

= 8a3 - 27b3 -36a2b + 54ab2

Therefore, the expansion of the expression is  8a3 - 27b3 -36a2b + 54ab2

.

(iii) (3x/2 + 1)3  

We  know that. (a + b )3 = a3 + b3 + 3a2b +3ab2

Comparing the corresponding terms with the identity,

(3x/2 + 1)3  = (3x/2)3 + (1)3 + 3(3x/2)2(1) + 3(3x/2)(1)2

= 27x3/8 + 1 + 27x2/4 + 9x/2


Therefore, the expansion of the expression (3x/2 + 1)3  is 27x3/8 + 1 + 27x2/4 + 9x/2.

(iv)(x - 2y/3)3

We know that (a + b )3 = a3 + b3 + 3a2b +3ab2

Comparing the corresponding terms with the identity

(x - 2y/3)3 = (x)3 + (-2y/3)3 + 3(x)2(-2y/3) + 3(x)(-2y/3)2

= x3 - 8y3/27 -2x2y + 4xy2/3

Therefore, the expansion of the expression (x - 2y/3)3 is x3 - 8y3/27 -2x2y + 4xy2/3

 .


Question 7. Evaluate the following using suitable identities

(i) (99)3

(ii) (102)3

(iii) (998)3


Solution:

(i) We have, 99 = (100 -1)

∴ 993 = (100 – 1)3

= (100)3 – 13 – 3(100)(1)(100 -1)

[Using (a – b)3 = a3 – b3 – 3ab (a – b)

= 1000000 – 1 – 300(100 – 1)

= 1000000 -1 – 30000 + 300

= 1000300 – 30001 = 970299

(ii) We have, 102 =100 + 2

∴ 1023 = (100 + 2)3

= (100)3 + (2)3 + 3(100)(2)(100 + 2)

[Using (a + b)3 = a3 + b3 + 3ab (a + b)]

= 1000000 + 8 + 600(100 + 2)

= 1000000 + 8 + 60000 + 1200 = 1061208

(iii) We have, 998 = 1000 – 2

∴ (998)3 = (1000-2)3

= (1000)3– (2)3 – 3(1000)(2)(1000 – 2)

[Using (a – b)3 = a3 – b3 – 3ab (a – b)]

= 1000000000 – 8 – 6000(1000 – 2)

= 1000000000 – 8 – 6000000 +12000

= 994011992


Question 8. Factorise each of the following

(i) 8a3 +b3 + 12a2b+6ab2

(ii) 8a3 - b3 - 12a2b+6ab2

(iii) 27-125a3 -135a+225a2

(iv) 64a3 -27b3 -144a2b + 108ab2

NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths chapter 2-Polynomials/ Q8


Solution:

(i) 8a3 +b3 + 12a2b+6ab2

= (2a)3 + (b)3 + 6ab(2a + b)

= (2a)3 + (b)3 + 3(2a)(b)(2a + b)

= (2 a + b)3

[Using (a + b)3 = a3 + b3 + 3ab (a + b)]

= (2a + b)(2a + b)(2a + b)

(ii) 8a3 - b3 - 12a2b+6ab2

= (2a)3 – (b)3 – 3(2a)(b)(2a – b)

= (2a – b)3

[Using (a + b)3 = a3 + b3 + 3ab (a + b)]

= (2a – b) (2a – b) (2a – b)

(iii) 27-125a3 -135a+225a2

= (3)3 – (5a)3 – 3(3)(5a)(3 – 5a)

= (3 – 5a)3

[Using (a + b)3 = a3 + b3 + 3ab (a + b)]

= (3 – 5a) (3 – 5a) (3 – 5a)

(iv) 64a3 -27b3 -144a2b + 108ab2

= (4a)3 – (3b)3 – 3(4a)(3b)(4a – 3b)

= (4a – 3b)3

[Using a3 – b3 – 3 ab(a – b) = (a – b)3]

= (4a – 3b)(4a – 3b)(4a – 3b)

Question 9. Verify

(i) x3 + y3 = (x + y)(x2 – xy + y2)

(ii) x3 - y3 = (x + y)(x2 + xy + y2)


Solution:

(i) ∵ (x + y)3 =  x3 + y3 + 3xy(x + y)

x3 + y3 = (x + y)(x2 – xy + y2

⇒ (x + y)3 – 3(x + y)(xy) = x3 + y3

⇒ (x + y)[(x + y)2-3xy] = x3 + y3

⇒ (x + y)(x2 + y2 – xy) = x3 + y3

Hence, verified.

(ii) ∵ (x – y)3 = x3 – y3 – 3xy(x – y)

⇒ (x – y)3 + 3xy(x – y) = x3 – y3

⇒ (x – y)[(x – y)2 + 3xy)] = x3 – y3

⇒ (x – y)(x2 + y2 + xy) = x3 – y3

Hence, verified.


Question 10. Factorise each of the following

(i) 27y3 + 125z3

(ii) 64m3 – 343n3

[Hint See question 9]


Solution:

(i) We know that

x3 + y3 = (x + y)(x2 – xy + y2

We have, 27y3 + 125z3 = (3y)3 + (5z)3

= (3y + 5z)[(3y)2 – (3y)(5z) + (5z)2]

= (3y + 5z)(9y2 – 15yz + 25z2)

(ii) We know that

x3 - y3 = (x + y)(x2 + xy + y2)

We have, 64m3 – 343n3 = (4m)3 – (7n)3

= (4m – 7n)[(4m)2 + (4m)(7n) + (7n)2]

= (4m – 7n)(16m2 + 28mn + 49n2)




Question 11. Factorise 27x3 + y3 + z3 – 9xyz


Solution:

We have,

27x3 + y3 + z3 – 9xyz = (3x)3 + (y)3 + (z)3 – 3(3x)(y)(z)

Using the identity,

x3 + y3 + z3 – 3xyz = (x + y + z)(x2 + y2 + z2 – xy – yz – zx)

We have, (3x)3 + (y)3 + (z)3 – 3(3x)(y)(z)

= (3x + y + z)[(3x)3 + y3 + z3 – (3x × y) – (y × 2) – (z × 3x)]

= (3x + y + z)(9x2 + y2 + z2 – 3xy – yz – 3zx)


Question 12. Verify that

x3 + y3 + z3 – 3xyz = NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths chapter 2-Polynomials(x + y+z)[(x-y)2 + (y – z)2 +(z – x)2]


Solution:

R.H.S

= NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths chapter 2-Polynomials(x + y + z[(x-y)2 + (y – z)2 +(z – x)2]

= NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths chapter 2-Polynomials(x + y + 2)[(x2 + y2 – 2xy) + (y2 + z2 – 2yz) + (z2 + x2 – 2zx)]

= NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths chapter 2-Polynomials(x + y + 2)(x2 + y2 + y2 + z2 + z2 + x2 – 2xy – 2yz – 2zx)

= NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths chapter 2-Polynomials(x + y + z)[2(x2 + y2 + z2 – xy – yz – zx)]

= 2 x NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths chapter 2-Polynomialsx (x + y + z)(x2 + y2 + z2 – xy – yz – zx)

= (x + y + z)(x2 + y2 + z2 – xy – yz – zx)

= x3 + y3 + z3 – 3xyz = L.H.S.

Hence, verified.


Question 13. If x + y + z = 0, show that x3 + y3 + z3 = 3 xyz.

Solution:

Since, x + y + z = 0

⇒ x + y = -z 

⇒(x + y)3 = (-z)3

⇒ x3 + y3 + 3xy(x + y) = -z3

⇒ x3 + y3 + 3xy(-z) = -z3 [∵ x + y = -z]

⇒ x3 + y3 – 3xyz = -z3

⇒ x3 + y3 + z3 = 3xyz

Hence, if x + y + z = 0, then

x3 + y3 + z3 = 3xyz


Question 14. Without actually calculating the cubes, find the value of each of the following

(i) (-12)3 + (7)3 + (5)3

(ii) (28)3 + (- 15)3 + (- 13)3


Solution:

(i) We have, (-12)3 + (7)3 + (5)3

Let x = -12, y = 7 and z = 5.

Then, x + y + z = -12 + 7 + 5 = 0

We know that if x + y + z = 0, then, x3 + y3 + z3 = 3xyz

∴ (-12)3 + (7)3 + (5)3 = 3[(-12)(7)(5)]

= 3[-420] = -1260

(ii) We have, (28)3 + (- 15)3 + (- 13)3

Let x = 28, y = -15 and z = -13.

Then, x + y + z = 28 – 15 – 13 = 0

We know that if x + y + z = 0, then x3 + y3 + z3 = 3xyz

∴ (28)3 + (- 15)3 + (- 13)3 = 3(28)(-15)(-13)

= 3(5460) = 16380


Question 15. Give possible expressions for the length and breadth of each of the following rectangles, in which their areas are given

(i) Area 25a2 – 35a + 12

(ii) Area 35y2 + 13y – 12


Solution:

Area of a rectangle = (Length) x (Breadth)

(i) 25a2 – 35a + 12 = 25a2 – 20a – 15a + 12 = 5a(5a – 4) – 3(5a – 4) = (5a – 4)(5a – 3)

Thus, the possible length and breadth are (5a – 3) and (5a – 4).

(ii) 35y2+ 13y -12 = 35y2 + 28y – 15y -12

= 7y(5y + 4) – 3(5y + 4) = (5 y + 4)(7y – 3)

Thus, the possible length and breadth are (7y – 3) and (5y + 4).


Question 16. What are the possible expressions for the dimensions of the cuboids whose volumes are given below?

(i) Volume 3x2 – 12x

(ii) Volume 12ky2 + 8ky – 20k


Solution:

Volume of a cuboid = (Length) x (Breadth) x (Height)

(i) We have, 3x2 – 12x = 3(x2 – 4x)

= 3 x (x – 4)

∴ The possible dimensions of the cuboid are 3, x and (x – 4).

(ii) We have, 12k2 + 8ky – 20k

= 4[3ky2 + 2ky – 5k] = 4[k(3y2 + 2y – 5)]

= 4 x k x (3y2 + 2y – 5)

= 4k[3y2 – 3y + 5y – 5]

= 4k[3y(y – 1) + 5(y – 1)]

= 4k[(3y + 5) x (y – 1)]

= 4k x (3y + 5) x (y – 1)

Thus, the possible dimensions of the cuboid are 4k, (3y + 5) and (y -1).
