Question 2:

Find the H.C.F. of the following by factorization. $8x^4-128$ , $12x^3-96$

Solution:

$\begin{align}8x^4-128 &= 8(x^4-16)\\&=8[(x^2)^2-(4)^2]\\&= 2 \times 2\times 2 \times (x^2+4)(x^2-4)\\&=2 \times 2\times 2 \times (x^2+4)(x-2)(x+2)\end{align}$

$\begin{align}12 x^3-96&=12(x^3-8)\\&=2 \times 2\times 3 \times (x-2)(x^2+ 2 x+4)\end{align}$

$\begin{align} H.C.F. &= 2 \times 2 (x-2)\\&= 4(x-2)\end{align}$

Question 4:

Find the $L.C.M.$ of the following by factorization.

$12x^2-75, 6x^2-13x-5, 4x^2-20x+25$

Solution:

$\begin{align}12x^2-75 &= 3(4x^2-25)\\&=3[(2x)^2-(5)^2]\\&= 3(2x+5)(2x-5)\end{align}$

$\begin{align}6x^2-13x-5 &= 6x^2-15x+2x-5\\&=3x(2x-5)+1(2x-5)\\&= (2x-5)(3x+1)\end{align}$

$\begin{align}4x^2-20x+25 &= 4x^2-10x-10x+25\\&=2x(2x-5)-5(2x-5)\\&= (2x-5)(2x-5)\end{align}$

$\begin{align} L.C.M. &= 3(2x+5)(2x-5)(3x+1)(2x-5)\\&= 3(2x+5)(2x-5)^2(3x+1)\end{align}$

Question 5:

If H.C.F. of $x^4+3x^3+5x^2+26x+56$ and $x^4+2x^3-4x^2-x+28$ is $x^2+5x+7$, find their L.C.M.

Solution:

$\begin{align}p(x)&= x^4+3 x^3+5 x^2+26 x+56\end{align}$

$\begin{align}q(x)&= x^4+2 x^3-4 x^2-x+28\end{align}$

$\begin{align}L.C.M. &= ?\end{align}$

$\begin{align}L.C.M.& =\frac{p(x) \times q(x)}{H.C.F.}\\&=\frac{(x^4+3x^3+5x^2+26x+56)(x^4+2x^3-4x^2-x+28)}{x^2+5x+7}\\&= \frac{x^4+3x^3+5x^2+26x+56}{x^2+5x+7}\\&=x^2-2x+8\end{align}$

$\begin{align} L.C.M. &= x^2-2x+8\end{align}$

Question 6:

Simplify:

(i) $\frac{3}{x^3+x^2+x+1}-\frac{3}{x^3-x^2+x-1}$

(ii) $\frac{a+b}{a^2-b^2} \div \frac{a^2-ab}{a^2-2ab+b^2}$

Solution:

(i) $\frac{3}{x^3+x^2+x+1}-\frac{3}{x^3-x^2+x-1}$

$\begin{align}\frac{3}{x^3+x^2+x+1}-\frac{3}{x^3-x^2+x-1}&=\frac{3}{x^2(x+1)+1(x+1)}-\frac{3}{x^2(x-1)+1(x-1)}\\&=\frac{3}{(x+1)(x^2+1)}-\frac{3}{(x-1)(x^2+1)}\\&= \frac{3}{(x^2+1)}\left[\frac{1}{x+1}-\frac{1}{x-1}\right]\\&= \frac{3}{(x^2+1)}\left[\frac{x-1-x-1}{(x+1)(x-1)}\right]\\&= \frac{3}{(x^2+1)}\left[\frac{-2}{(x+1)(x-1)}\right]\\&=\frac{-6}{(x^2+1)(x^2-1)}\end{align}$

*Solution:
(ii) $\frac{a+b}{a^2-b^2} \div \frac{a^2-ab}{a^2-2ab+b^2}$
$\begin{align}\frac{a+b}{a^2-b^2} \div \frac{a^2-ab}{a^2-2ab+b^2}&= \frac{a+b}{(a-b)(a+b)} \div \frac{a(a-b)}{(a-b)^2}\\&=\frac{1}{(a-b)} \div \frac{a}{(a-b)}\\&= \frac{1}{(a-b)} \times \frac{(a-b)}{a}\\&= \frac{1}{a}\end{align}$
====Question 7:==== Find square root by using factorization.
$\left(x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}\right)+10\left(x+\frac{1}{x}\right)+27, (x \neq 0)$
Solution:**

$\begin{align}\left(x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}\right)+10\left(x+\frac{1}{x}\right)+27&= \left(x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}\right)+10\left(x+\frac{1}{x}\right)+27-2+2\\&=\left(x+\frac{1}{x}\right)^2+2\left(x+\frac{1}{x}(5)\right)+25\\&=\left(x+\frac{1}{x}\right)^2+2\left(x+\frac{1}{x}(5)\right)+(5)^2\\&= \left(x+\frac{1}{x}+5\right)^2\end{align}$

$\begin{align} \sqrt{ \left(x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}\right)+10\left(x+\frac{1}{x}\right)+27 }&=\pm \left(x+\frac{1}{x}+5\right)\end{align}$
