Thus, 6x? + 5x — 6 = (2x + 3)(3x- 2)
{iv) We have, 3x?—x - 4 = 3x? - 4x + 3x-4
= x(3x— 4) + (3x — 4) = (3x — 4)(x #1)

= [)?- ("Ix - 2)
x= A) + 1)(x— 2)
[+ (a? —b?) = (a + b)(a-b)]
Thus, x3 - 2x? — x + 2 = (x— 1)(x + 1)(x- 2)
(ii) We have, x? — 3x? - 9x - 5
= x3 + x? — 4x? — dx — 5x—5,
= x2 (x + 1) —4x(x + 1) = 5(x + 1)= (x + 1)(x?— 4x —5)

= (4+ 1) = SK + 1)
Thus, x°— 3x? — 9x — 5 = (x + 1)(x— 5)(x #1)
(ili) We have, x3 + 13x? + 32x + 20
= x3 + x? + 12x? + 12x + 20x + 20
A(x +1) + 12x(x +1) + 20(x + 1)

Thus, x° + 13x? + 32x + 20
= (K+ 1)(x + 2)(x + 10)
(iv) We have, 2y3 + y2-2y-1
= 2y3 - 2y? + 3y?- 3y +y—1
y*(y — 1) * 3yly— 1) + 1y— 1)

[Using (a - b)? = a? - b? - 3ab (a - b)]

= 1000000 -1 - 30000 + 300
= 1000300 - 30001 = 970299
(i) We have, 102 =100 +2

= (100)? + (2)3 + 3(100)(2)(100 + 2)
[Using (a +b) = a° + b® + 3ab (a + b)]

Question 10. Factorise each of the following

(ii) 64m3 = 343n3
[Hint See question 9]
Solution:
(i) We know that
Bry? = (C+ Y)2— Hy + 2
We have, 27y’ + 12523 = bys + (52)?
= (3y + 52z)[(3y)? — (3y)(5z) + (5z)?]
= (3y + 52)(9y* - 15yz + 252”)
(ii) We know that
x8 ys = (x= yy? * xy * y2)
We have, 64m* — 343n? = (4m)? — (7n)?
= (4m = 7n)[(4m)2 + (4m)(7n) + (7n)°]
= (4m - 7n)(16m2 + 28mn + 49n2)
Question 11. Factorise 27x° +y? +z° -9xyz.
Solution:
We have,
27x3 + y° + 29 — Oxyz = (3x)° + (y) + (Z)° — 3(3x)(y)(Z)
Using the identity,x9 + y9 + 23— 3xyz = (x + y + 2)(x? + y? + 2? — xy — yz —2x)
We have, (3x)® + (y)® + (z)°— 3(3x)(y)(2)
= (3x + y + z){(3x)5 + y® + 28 — (3x x y) — (y * 2) — (2 * 3x)]
= (3x + y + z)(9x? + y2 + z?— 3xy — yz — 3zx)

=x ty + z)[2(x2 + y? + 22— xy —yz—zx)]
2x 4x (x+y + 2)(x2 + y? + 22 — xy - yz—zx)

Hence, verified,
Question 13. If x + y +z = 0, show that x? + y® +z? = 3 xyz,
Solution:
Since, x+y +z=0
=xty=-z(x+y)=(z)s
= x8 + y3 + Bxy(x + y) =-23
3x8 + y3 + 3xy(-z} Sfex+y=-z]
= x3 + y9— 3xyz = 23
2x8 + y+ 29 = Sxyz
Hence, ifx + y +z=0, then
x8 + 8 + 29 = Bxyz
Question 14. Without actually calculating the cubes, find the value of each of the following
(iC 12)° + (7) + (5)
(li) (28)° + (15)? + (- 13)
Solution:
(i) We have, (-12)3 + (7)3 + (5)?
Let x = 12, y=7 andz=5.
Then, x+y +z=-12+7+5=0
We know that if x + y + z = 0, then, x? + y3+ 29 = 3xyz.
+ (12)8 + (7)8 + (6)? = 3[(-12)(7)(5)]
= 3[-420] = -1260
(ii) We have, (28)? + (-15)3 + (-13)3
Let x = 28, y = -15 and z= -13,
Then, x+y +z=28-15-13=0
We know that ifx + y #2 =0, then x? + y? + 23 = 3xyz
+ (28)8 + (-15)8 + (-43)° = 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 25a? - 35a + 12
(ii) Area 35y? + 13y - 12
Solution:
Area of a rectangle = (Length) x (Breadth)
(i) 25a? — 35a + 12 = 25a? — 20a — 15a + 12 = Sa(5a — 4) ~ 3(5a - 4) = (Sa—4)(5a— 3)
Thus, the possible length and breadth are (Sa - 3) and (5a - 4).
(ii) 35y** 13y -12 = 35y? + 28y — 15y -12
= Ty(5y + 4) - 3(5y + 4) = (5 y + 4)(7y — 3)
Thus, the possible length and breadth are (7y - 3) and (Sy + 4),
Question 16. What are the possible expressions for the dimensions of the cuboids whose
volumes are given below?
(i) Volume 3x? — 12x
(ii) Volume 12ky? + 8ky — 20k
Solution:
Volume of a cuboid = (Length) x (Breadth) x (Height)
(i) We have, 3x?— 12x = 3(x? — 4x)
=3x(x-4)
=. The possible dimensions of the cuboid are 3, x and (x — 4).
(ii) We have, 12ky? + 8ky — 20k
= A[Sky? + ky — 5k] = 4{k(3y? + 2y - 5)]
=4xkx (3y?+ 2y—5)
= 4k[3y? — 3y + 5y— 5]
= Ak[3y(y — 1) + S(y~ 1)]
= 4k[(3y + 5) x (y— 1)]
= 4k x (By +5) x (y—1)
Thus, the possible dimensions of the cuboid are 4k, (3y + 5) and (y -1).
