Exercise 14.4

Refer the page 15 to 20 for the exercise 14.4 in the PDF

1. Find and correct the errors in the statement${\mathbf{4}}\left( {{\mathbf{x}} - {\mathbf{5}}} \right) = {\mathbf{4x}} - {\mathbf{5}}$.

Ans:  From the above question we get,

$4(x - 5) = 4x - 20$

Thus, $4x - 20 \ne 4x - 5$

So, the correct statement is $4x - 20$.

2. Find and correct the errors in the statement${\mathbf{x}}\left( {{\mathbf{3x}} + {\mathbf{2}}} \right) = {\mathbf{3}}{{\mathbf{x}}^{\mathbf{2}}} + {\mathbf{2}}$

Ans: From the above question we get,

$x(3x + 2) = 3{x^2} + 2x$

Again, $3{x^2} + 2x \ne 3{x^2} + 2$

So, the correct answer is $3{x^2} + 2x$

3. Find and correct the errors in the statement: ${\mathbf{2x}} + {\mathbf{3y}} = {\mathbf{5xy}}$

Ans: $L.H.S = 2x + 3y \ne R.H.S$

The correct statement is $2x + 3y = 2x + 3y$

4. Find and correct the errors in the statement: x + 2x + 3x = 5x

Ans: $L.H.S = x + 2x + 3x = 1x + 2x + 3x = x\left( {1 + 2 + 3} \right) = 6x \ne {\text{R}}.H.S.$

The correct statement is x + 2x + 3x = 6x

5. Find and correct the errors in the statement: ${\mathbf{5y}} + {\mathbf{2y}} + {\mathbf{y}} - {\mathbf{7y}} = {\mathbf{0}}$

Ans: $L.H.S. = 5y + 2y + y - {\text{7}}y = 8y - 7y = y \ne R.H.S$

The correct statement is 5y + 2y + y − 7y = y

6. Find and correct the errors in the statement: 3x + 2x = 5x 2

Ans: $L.H.S. = 3x + 2x = 5x \ne {\text{R}}.H.S$

The correct statement is $3x + 2x = 5x$

7. Find and correct the errors in the statement: ${\left( {{\mathbf{2x}}} \right)^{\mathbf{2}}} + {\mathbf{4}}\left( {{\mathbf{2x}}} \right) + {\mathbf{7}} = {\mathbf{2}}{{\mathbf{x}}^{\mathbf{2}}} + {\mathbf{8x}} + {\mathbf{7}}$

Answer:$\;L.H.S = {\left( {2x} \right)^2} + 4\left( {2x} \right) + 7 = 4{x^2} + 8x + 7 \ne R.H.S$

The correct statement is ${\left( {2x} \right)^2} + 4\left( {2x} \right) + 7 = 4{x^2} + 8x + 7$

8. Find and correct the errors in the statement:

Ans:$L.H.S = {\left( {2x} \right)^2} + 5x = 4{x^2} + 5x \ne R.H.S.$The correct statement is ${\left( {2x} \right)^2} + 5x = 4{x^2} + 5x$

9. Find and correct the errors in the statement: (3x + 2)2 = 3x 2 + 6x + 4

Ans: $L.H.S. = {\left( {3x + 2} \right)^2} = {\left( {3x} \right)^2} + 2\left( {3x} \right)\left( 2 \right) + {\left( 2 \right)^2}$

$\left[ {{{\left( {a + b} \right)}^2} = {a^2} + 2ab + {b^2}} \right] = 9{x^2} + 12x + 4 \ne R.H.S$

The correct statement is ${\left( {3x + 2} \right)^2} = 9{x^2} + {\text{1}}2x + 4$

10. Find and correct the errors in the following mathematical statement. Substituting ${\mathbf{x}} = - {\mathbf{3}}$in

a) ${{\mathbf{x}}^{\mathbf{2}}} + {\mathbf{5x}} + {\mathbf{4}}$ gives ${\left( { - {\mathbf{3}}} \right)^{\mathbf{2}}} + {\mathbf{5}}\left( { - {\mathbf{3}}} \right) + {\mathbf{4}} = {\mathbf{9}} + {\mathbf{2}} + {\mathbf{4}} = {\mathbf{15}}$

Ans: For$x = - 3$,

${x^2} + 5x + 4$

$= {\left( { - 3} \right)^2} + 5\left( { - 3} \right) + 4$

$= 9 - 15 + 4$

$= 13 - 15$

$= - 2$

b) ${{\mathbf{x}}^{\mathbf{2}}} - {\mathbf{5x}} + {\mathbf{4}}$ gives ${\left( { - {\mathbf{3}}} \right)^{\mathbf{2}}} - {\mathbf{5}}\left( { - {\mathbf{3}}} \right) + {\mathbf{4}} = {\mathbf{9}} - {\mathbf{15}} + {\mathbf{4}} = - {\mathbf{2}}$

Ans: For $x = - 3$,

$\;{x^2} - 5x + 4$

$= {\left( { - 3} \right)^2} - 5\left( { - 3} \right) + 4$

$= 9 + 15 + 4$

$= 28$

c) ${{\mathbf{x}}^{\mathbf{2}}} + {\mathbf{5x}}$ gives ${\left( { - {\mathbf{3}}} \right)^{\mathbf{2}}} + {\mathbf{5}}\left( { - {\mathbf{3}}} \right) = - {\mathbf{9}} - {\mathbf{15}} = - {\mathbf{24}}$

Ans:For $x = - 3$,

${x^2} + 5x$

$= {\left( { - 3} \right)^2} + 5\left( { - 3} \right)$

$= 9 - 15$

$= - 6$

11. Find and correct the errors in the statement: ${\left( {{\mathbf{y}} - {\mathbf{3}}} \right)^{\mathbf{2}}} = {\mathbf{y}} - {\mathbf{9}}$

Ans: $L.H.S = \left( {y - 3} \right)2 = {\left( y \right)^2} - 2\left( y \right)\left( 3 \right) + {\left( 3 \right)^2}\left[ {{{\left( {a - b} \right)}^2} = {a^2} - 2ab + {b^2}} \right] = {y^2} - 6y + 9 \ne R.H.S\,$The correct statement is ${\left( {y - 3} \right)^2} = {y^2} - 6y + 9$

12. Find and correct the errors in the statement: ${\left( {{\mathbf{z}} + {\mathbf{5}}} \right)^{\mathbf{2}}} = {{\mathbf{z}}^{\mathbf{2}}} + {\mathbf{25}}$

Ans: $L.H.S = {\left( {z + 5} \right)^2} = {\left( z \right)^2} + 2\left( z \right)\left( 5 \right) + {\left( 5 \right)^2}\left[ {{{\left( {a{\text{ }} + {\text{ }}b} \right)}^2} = {a^2} + 2ab + {b^2}} \right] = {z^2} + 10z + 25 \ne R.H.S$The correct statement is ${\left( {z + 5} \right)^2} = {z^2} + {\text{1}}0z + 25$

13. Find and correct the errors in the statement: $\left( {{\mathbf{2a}} + {\mathbf{3b}}} \right)\left( {{\mathbf{a}} - {\mathbf{b}}} \right) = {\mathbf{2}}{{\mathbf{a}}^{\mathbf{2}}} - {\mathbf{3}}{{\mathbf{b}}^{\mathbf{2}}}$

Ans: $L.H.S. = \left( {2a + 3b} \right)\left( {a - b} \right) = 2a \times a + 3b \times a - 2a \times b - 3b \times b = 2{a^2} + 3ab - 2ab - 3{b^2} = 2{a^2} + {\text{a}}b - 3{b^2} \ne R.H.S.$The correct statement is $\left( {2a + 3b} \right)\left( {a - b} \right) = 2a2 + {\text{a}}b - 3{b^2}$

14. Find and correct the errors in the statement: $\left( {{\mathbf{a}} + {\mathbf{4}}} \right)\left( {{\mathbf{a}} + {\mathbf{2}}} \right) = {{\mathbf{a}}^{\mathbf{2}}} + {\mathbf{8}}$
