Simplify combining like terms:

(i) 21b – 32 + 7b – 20b
Solution:
21b – 32 + 7b – 20b
= 21b + 7b – 20b – 32
= (21 + 7 – 20 )b – 32 = 8b – 32

(ii) – z2 + 13 z2 -5z + 7z3 – 15z
Solution:
– z2 + 13 z2 – 5 z +7z3 – 15z
= 7z3 – z2 + 13z2 – 5z – 15z
= 7z3 + (-1 + 13)z2 + (- 5 – 15)z
= 7z3 +12z2 – 20z

(iii) P – (p – q) – q – (q – p)

= – 18xy

(iii) (a – b) from (a + b)
Answer:
The required difference is given by
(a + b) – (a – b) = a + b- a + b
= a – a + b + b
= (1 – 1 )a + (1 + 1)b = 2b

(iv) a (b – 5) from b (5 – a)
Solution:
The required difference is given by
b (5 – a) – a (b – 5) = 5b – ab – ab + 5a
= 5a + 5b + (-1 – 1)ab

(v) – m2 5mn from 4m2 – 3mn + 8
Solution:
The required difference is given by
(4m2 – 3mn + 8) – (-m2 + 5mn)
= 4m2 – 3mn + 8 + m2 – 5mn
= 4m2 + m2 – 3mn – 5mn + 8
= (4 + 1)m2 + (- 3 – 5)mn + 8
= 5m2 – 8 mn + 8

(vi) – x2 + 10x – 5 from 5x – 10
Solution:
The required difference is given by
(5x -10) – (- x2 + 10x – 5)
= 5x -10 + x2 -10x + 5
= x2 + (5 – 10)x + (- 10 + 5)
= x2 – 5x – 5

(vii) 5a2 – 7ab + 5b2 from 3ab – 2a2 – 2b2

= (5 + 3)p2 + (3 + 5)q2 +(- 1 – 1 – 4)pq
= 8p2 + 8q2 – 5pq

Question 4.
(a) What should be added to x2 + xy + y2 to obtain 2x 2 + 3xy?
Solution:
Required expression is equal to the subtraction of x2 + xy + y2 from 2x2 + 3xy.
Hence, required expression
= (2x2 + 3xy) – (x2 + xy + y2)
= 2x2 + 3xy – x2 – xy – y2
= 2x2 – x2 +3xy – xy – y2
= (2 – 1)x2 + (3-1 ) xy – y2
= x2 + 2xy – y2

(b) What should be subtracted from 2a + 8b +10 to get – 3a + 7b + 16?
Solution:
Let P denote the required expression, then (2a + 8b +10) – P = – 3a + 7b +16
Hence, required expression P
= (2a + 8b + 10) – (-3a + 7b + 16)
= 2a + 8b +10 + 3a – 7b -16
= 2a + 3a + 8b-7b+ 10 – 16
= (2 + 3)a + (8 – 7)b + (10 -16)
= 5a + b – 6

Question 5.
What should be taken away from 3x2 – 4y2 + 5xy + 20 to obtain – x2 – y2 + 6xy + 20 ?
Solution:
Let P denote the required expression, then
(3x2 – 4y2 + 5xy + 20) – P = (- x2 – y2 + 6xy + 20)
Hence, required expression P
= (3x2 – 4y2 + 5xy + 20) – (-x2 – y2 + 6xy + 20)
= 3x2 – 4y2 + 5xy + 20 + x2 + y2 – 6xy -20
=3x2 + x2 – 4y2 +y2 + 5xyy – 6xy + 20 – 20
= (3 +1)x2 + (- 4 +1)y2 +(5 -6)xy + (20 – 20)
= 4x2 – 3y2 – xy

Question 6.
(a) From the sum of 3x – y +11 and -y -11, subtract 3 x – y – 11.
Solution:
The sum of 3x – y +11 and -y -11 is given by
(3x – y + 11) + (- y – 11) = 3x – y + 11 -y – 11 = 3x – 2y
Now, we have to subtract 3x – y -11 from 3x – 2y
∴ Required expression = (3x – 2y) – (3x – y -11)
= 3x – 2y- 3x + y + 11 = -y + 11

(b) From the sum of 4 + 3x and 5 – 4x + 2x2, subtract the sum of 3x2 – 5x and – x2 + 2x + 5.
Solution:
The sum of 4 + 3x and 5 – 4x + 2x2 is given by
(4 + 3x) + (5 – 4x + 2x2) = 4 + 3x + 5 – 4x + 2x2
= 9 – x + 2x2
The sum of 3xThe sum of 4 + 3x and 5 – 4x + 2x2 is given by
(4 + 3x) + (5 – 4x + 2x2) = 4 + 3x + 5 – 4x + 2x2
= 9 – x + 2x2 – 5x and – x2 + 2x + 5 is given by
(3x2 – 5x) + (-x2 + 2x + 5)
= 2x2 – 3x + 5
Now, we have to subtract 2x2 – 3x + 5 from 9 – x + 2x2
∴ Required expression = (9 – x + 2x2) – (2x2 – 3x + 5)
= 9 – x + 2x2 – 2x2 + 3x – 5
= 2x + 4
