(a+b)(2a−3b+c)−(2a−3b)c
=[(a+b)(2a−3b+c)]−[(2a−3b)c]
=[2a2−3ba+ac+2ab−3b2+bc]−[2ac−3bc]
=2a2−3ba+ac+2ab−3b2+bc−2ac+3bc
=2a2−3b2−ab−ac+4bc
The simplified expresion is
=2a2−3b2−ab−ac+4bc.

Perimeter of the triangle = sum of the sides of the triangle
6p2−4p+9=p2−2p+1+3p2−5p+3+3rdside
3rdside=6p2−4p+9−[(p2−2p+1)+(3p2−5p+3)]
3rdside=6p2−4p+9−(4p2−7p+4)
3rdside=2p2+3p+5
The 3rd side of the triangle has length is2p2+3p+5
Giventhat
p = 3
The perimeter of thetriangle is 6p2−4p+9 .
On substituting the values we get:
=6×32−4×3+9
=54−12+9
=51
The perimeter of the triangle is 51 units.
Question 24. Tatesville has x inches of rainfall in April, (x+1.3) inches of rainfall in May, and (2x+0.5) inches in June. Write the expression that shows the total amount of rainfall for Tatesville for the three-month period? If the rainfall in May was 2.5 inches, find the total rainfall over the three months. [4 MARKS]

Answer: 1 Mark
Given that
Tatesville has x inches of rainfall in April, (x+1.3)inches of rainfall in May, and (2x+0.5)inches in June.
The total rainfall during these months will be the sum of these expressions.
Total amount of rainfall
=x+(x+1.3)+(2x+0.5)inches
=x+x+1.3+2x+0.5inches
=4x+1.8inches
Given that, rainfall in May is 2.5 inches.
Rainfall in May
(x+1.3)=2.5inches
x+1.3=2.5
x=2.5−1.3
x=1.2inches
On substituting the value ofx=1.2inches in the ecpression for total rainfall.
Total Rainfall
=4x+1.8=4(1.2)+1.8=4.8+1.8=6.6inches
So, the total rainfall over the three months is 6.6inches

As per the question:
We have to find out the sum of the numerical coefficients of the expression2x2+31y−5xy
The numerical coefficient of2x2 = 2
The numerical coefficient of31y = 31
The numerical coefficient of−5xy = −5
Sum of the coefficients = 2 + 31 - 5 = 28
Hence, the sum of the numerical coefficients of the expression2x2+31y−5xy is 28.

Given that:
Two adjacent sides of arectangleare 5x2−3y2and x2−2xy.
The perimeter of a rectangle is given by:
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 (Length +Breadth)
=2[(5x2−3y2)+(x2−2xy)]
=[10x2−6y2)+(2x2−4xy)]
=12x2−6y2−4xy
So, the perimeter of the rectangle is12x2−6y2−4xy.

Let the numbers be x and x+5
Therefore, x+x+5=55
⇒2x+5=55
⇒2x=55−5
⇒2x=50
⇒x=502
⇒x=25
Therefore, the requirednumbers are x=25,andx+5=30
Therefore, the two numbers with a difference of 5 whose sum is 55 are 25 and 30.

(i) Value of the expression for x=−4
2x2+12x+3
2(−4)2+12(−4)+3
2(16)−48+3
32−48+3=−15
Hence, the value of expression 2x2+12x+3 at x=−4 is lesser than 15.
(ii) As per question
x2 is added to 2x2+12x+3 and 15 is subtracted from it
So, the final expression is:
2x2+12x+3+x2−15
3x2+12x−12
On putting x = -4 in the above equation we get:
3×(−4)2+12×(−4)−12
=48−48−12
=−12

Given that
A number is 12 more than the other number.
Let the number be x, thentheother number will be x+12.
As per question
x+(x+12)=48
⇒2x+12=48
⇒2x=48−12
⇒x=362=18
Then, the other number is x+12=18+12=30.
Therefore, the numbers are 18 and 30.
The product of these numbers =18×30=540.
