(v) Terms: and )x2, y2and -𝓍y

Coefficient of is 1 coefficient ofy2 is 1 and coefficient of -𝓍y is -1.

(vi) Terms: 0.3a, – 0.6ab and 0.5b

Coefficient of 0.3a is 0.3, coefficient of – 0.6ab is and coefficient of 5bis 0.5.

Question :2. Classify the following polynomials as monomials, binomials, trinomials. Which polynomials do not fit in any of these three categories: x + y ,

1000, x + x²+x³+ x4, 7 + y + 5x, 2y -3y², 2y – 3y²+ 4y³, 5x-4y+3sy, 4z-15z², ab+bc+cd+da, pqr, p²q + pq², 2p + 2q


Answer :
(i) Since x + y contains two terms. Therefore it is binomial.

(ii) Since 1000 contains one terms. Therefore it is monomial.

(iii) Since x + x²+x³+ x4 contains four terms. Therefore it is a polynomial and it does not fit in above three categories.

(iv) Since7 + y + 5xcontains three terms. Therefore it is trinomial.

(v) Since 2y -3y²contains two terms. Therefore it is binomial.

(vi) Since2y – 3y²+ 4y³contains three terms. Therefore it is trinomial.

(vii) Since5x – 4y + 3sy contains three terms. Therefore it is trinomial.

(viii) Since4z-15z² contains two terms. Therefore it is binomial.

(ix) Sinceab+bc+cd+da contains four terms. Therefore it is a polynomial and it does not fit in above three categories.

(x) Since pqr contains one terms. Therefore it is monomial.

(xi) Since p²q + pq² contains two terms. Therefore it is binomial.

(xii) Since 2p + 2q contains two terms. Therefore it is binomial..
Question: 3. Add the following:

(i) ab-bc, bc-ca, ca-ab

(ii) a – b + ab, b – c + bc, c – a + ac

(iii) 2p²q² – 3pq + 4, 5 + 7pq – 3p²q²
