Q.1. Simplify : (a) 2x – {5y – (x – 2y)}
(b) 5a – {3a – (2 – a) + 4}
Ans:
(a) Step 1: Simplify inside the innermost parentheses:
(x−2y) = x − 2y
Now substitute this into the expression:
2x − {5y − (x − 2y)} = 2x − {5y − x + 2y}
Step 2: Simplify inside the curly braces by combining like terms:
5y−x + 2y = 7y − x
Now substitute this back:
2x − (7y − x)
Step 3: Distribute the negative sign:
2x − 7y + x
Step 4: Combine like terms:
(2x + x) − 7y = 3x − 7y
Final answer:
3x − 7y
(b) 5a−{3a−(2−a)+4}
Step 1: Start by simplifying the inner parentheses.
(2 − a)
There's nothing to simplify, so it remains as 2 − a.
Step 2: Substitute 2 − a back into the expression.
5a − {3a − (2 − a) + 4}=5a−{3a − 2 + a + 4}
We distributed the negative sign over 2 − a.
Step 3: Simplify the expression inside the curly brackets.
3a − 2 + a + 4 = 4a + 2
Step 4: Now subtract 4a+2 from 5a.
5a − (4a + 2) = 5a − 4a − 2
Step 5: Combine like terms.
a − 2
Thus, the simplified expression is:
a − 2
Q.2. Pallavi spends ₹x daily and saves ₹ y per day. What is her income after 3 weeks?
View AnswerAns. Given:
Total income per day:
Pallavi's total daily income is the sum of her daily spending and savings:
Daily income = Daily spending + Daily savings = ₹x + ₹y
Total income after 3 weeks (21 days):
To find her income after 3 weeks, multiply her daily income by the number of days (21):
Total income = (₹x + ₹y) × 21
Thus, Pallavi's income after 3 weeks is:
21(x + y)
Q.3. If P = – 10, find the value of P2 – 2P – 100.
View AnswerAns. We are given P = −10, and we need to find the value of the expression P2 − 2P − 100.
Step-by-step solution:
Substitute P = −10 into the expression:
P2 − 2P − 100 = (−10)2 − 2(−10) −100
Simplify each term:
(−10)2= 100−2(−10) = 20
Sothe expression becomes:
100 + 20 − 100
Simplify the result:
100 + 20 − 100 = 20
Thus, the value of P2 − 2P − 100 is 20

Q.5. From the sum of 3x – y + 11 and – y – 11, subtance 3x – y – 11.
View AnswerAns.
Step 1: Write the expression for the sum.
We are asked to find the sum of:
(3x − y + 11) and (−y − 11)
Adding the two expressions:
(3x − y + 11) + (−y − 11)
Simplifying:
3x − y + 11 −y − 11
Combine like terms:
3x − 2y
Step 2: Subtract the expression 3x − y − 11 from the sum.
We now subtract (3x − y − 11) from the result 3x − 2y.
(3x − 2y) − (3x − y − 11)
Simplifying:
3x − 2y − 3x + y + 11
Combine like terms:
−y + 11
Final Answer:
The result is:
−y + 11
Q.6. Write down the numerical coefficient in each of the following terms.
(i) xy (ii) –3xy (iii) 2p3 (iv) –5abc
View AnswerAns.
There is no visible number, but it is understood to be 1.
So, the numerical coefficient is 1.
The numerical coefficient is the number −3 multiplying the variables.
So, the numerical coefficient is −3.
The numerical coefficient is the number 2 multiplying the variable p3.
So, the numerical coefficient is 2.
The numerical coefficient is -5, which multiplies the variables a, b, and c.
So, the numerical coefficient is −5.
