Important Questions from Exploring Algebraic Identities

1multiple choice

Find the side of the cube whose volume is p³ + 6p²q + 12pq² + 8q³ cubic units.

Show answer

p + 2q units

Compare p³ + 6p²q + 12pq² + 8q³ with a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³. Here a = p and b = 2q. So the expression becomes (p + 2q)³. Therefore the side is p + 2q units.

Rewrite 8n³ - 60n²m + 150nm² - 125m³ as a cube of a binomial.

Show answer

(2n - 5m)³

Compare 8n³ - 60n²m + 150nm² - 125m³ with a³ - 3a²b + 3ab² - b³. Take a = 2n and b = 5m. Then the expression becomes (2n - 5m)³.

Find the sum of cubes of three numbers whose sum is 10, product is 25, and sum of squares is 38.

Show answer

145

Use x³ + y³ + z³ - 3xyz = (x + y + z)(x² + y² + z² - xy - xz - yz). First find xy + xz + yz using (x + y + z)² = x² + y² + z² + 2xy + 2xz + 2yz. So 100 = 38 + 2(xy + xz + yz), giving xy + xz + yz = 31. Then x³ + y³ + z³ - 75 = 10(38 - 31) = 70, so x³ + y³ + z³ = 145.

Find the factors of x² + 11x + 30.

Show answer

(x + 5)(x + 6)

Find two numbers whose sum is 11 and product is 30. The pair 5 and 6 works because 5 + 6 = 11 and 5 × 6 = 30. So x² + 11x + 30 = (x + 5)(x + 6).
