Question 2.
The mean salary of 20 workers is ₹10,250. If the salary of office superintendent is added, the mean will increase by ₹ 750. Find the salary of the office superintendent.
Solution:
\( \text { Mean }=\frac{\text { The sum of all observations }}{\text { Total number of observations }}\)
∴ The sum of all observations = Mean x Total number of observations
The mean salary of 20 workers is ₹ 10,250.
∴ Sum of the salaries of 20 workers
= 20 x 10,250
= ₹ 2,05,000 …(i)
If the superintendent’s salary is added, then mean increases by 750
new mean = 10, 250 + 750 = 11,000
Total number of people after adding superintendent = 20 + 1 = 21
∴ Sum of the salaries including the superintendent’s salary = 21 x 11,000 = ₹ 2,31,000 …(ii)
∴ Superintendent salary = sum of the salaries including superintendent’s salary – sum of salaries of 20 workers
= 2, 31,00 – 2,05,000 …[From (i) and (ii)]
= 26,000
∴ The salary of the office superintendent is ₹ 26,000.

Question 3.
The mean of nine numbers is 77. If one more number is added to it, then the mean increases by 5. Find the number added in the data.
Solution:
∴ \( \text { Mean }=\frac{\text { The sum of all observations }}{\text { Total number of observations }}\)
∴ The sum of all observations = Mean x Total number of observations mean of nine numbers is 77
∴ sum of 9 numbers = 11 x 9 = 693 …(i)
If one more number is added, then mean increases by 5
mean of 10 numbers = 77 + 5 = 82
∴ sum of the 10 numbers = 82 x 10 = 820 …(ii)
∴ Number added = sum of the 10 numbers – sum of the 9 numbers = 820 – 693 … [From (i) and (ii)]
= 127
∴ The number added in the data is 127.

Question 4.
The monthly maximum temperature of a city is given in degree Celsius in the following data. By taking suitable classes, prepare the grouped frequency distribution table
29.2, 29.0, 28.1, 28.5, 32.9, 29.2, 34.2, 36.8, 32.0, 31.0, 30.5, 30.0, 33, 32.5, 35.5, 34.0, 32.9, 31.5, 30.3, 31.4, 30.3, 34.7, 35.0, 32.5, 33.5.29.0. 29.5.29.9.33.2.30.2

Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 7 Statistics Problem Set 7 6
∴ 20.2 (30 + p) = 610 + 20p
∴ 606 + 20.2p = 610 + 20p
∴ 20.2p – 20p = 610 – 606
∴ 0.2p = 4
∴ p = \(\frac { 4 }{ 0.2 }\) = \(\frac { 40 }{ 2 }\) = 20
∴ p = 20

Practice Set 3.4 Algebra 9th Std Maths Part 1 Answers Chapter 3 Polynomials

Question 1.
For x = 0, find the value of the polynomial x2 – 5x + 5.
Solution:
p(x) = x2 – 5x + 5
Put x = 0 in the given polynomial.
∴ P(0) = (0)2 – 5(0) + 5
= 0 – 0 + 5
∴ p(0) = 5

Question 2.
If p(y) = y2 – 3√2 + 1, then find p( 3√2 ).
Solution:
p(y) = y2 – 3√2 y + 1
Putp= 3√2 in the given polynomial.
∴ p( 3√2 ) = (3√2 )2 – 3√2 (3√2 ) + 1
= 9 x 2 – 9 x 2 + 1
= 18 – 18 + 1
∴ p( 3√2 ) = 1

Question 3.
If p(m) = m3 + 2m2 – m + 10, then P(a) + p(-a) = ?
Solution:
p(m) = m3 + 2m2 – m + 10
Put m = a in the given polynomial.
∴ p(a) = a3 + 2a2 – a + 10 …(i)
Put m = -a in the given polynomial.
p(-a) = (-a)3 + 2(-a)2 – (-a) +10
∴ p (-a) = -a3 + 2a2 + a + 10 …(ii)
Adding (i) and (ii),
p(a) + p(-a) = (a3 + 2a2 – a + 10) + (-a3 + 2a2 + a + 10)
= a3 – a3 + 2a2 + 2a2a + a + 10 + 10
∴ p(a) + p(-a) = 4a2 + 20

Question 4.
If p(y) = 2y3 – 6y2 – 5y + 7, then find p(2).
Solution:
p(y) = 2y3 – 6y2 – 5y + 7
Put y = 2 in the given polynomial.
∴ p(2) = 2(2)3 – 6(2)2 – 5(2) + 7
= 2 x 8 – 6 x 4 – 10 + 7
= 16 – 24 – 10 + 7
∴ P(2) = -11

To get the term 2m2, multiply (m – 5) by 2m and add 10m,
= 2m(m – 5) + 10m- 3m + 10
= 2m(m – 5) + 7m + 10
To get the term 7m, multiply (m – 5) by 7 and add 35
= 2m(m – 5) + 7(m- 5) + 35+ 10
= (m – 5) (2m + 7) + 45
∴ Quotient = 2m + 7,
Remainder = 45

ii. Synthetic division:
(x4 + 2x3 + 3x2 + 4x + 5) ÷ (x + 2)
Dividend = x4 + 2x3 + 3x2 + 4x + 5

To get the term 3x2, multiply (x + 2) by 3x and subtract 6x,
= x3(x + 2) + 3x(x + 2) – 6x + 4x + 5
= x3(x + 2) + 3x(x + 2) – 2x + 5
To get the term -2x, multiply (x + 2) by -2 and add 4,
= x3(x + 2) + 3x(x + 2) – 2(x + 2) + 4 + 5
= (x + 2) (x3 + 3x – 2) + 9
∴ Quotient = x3 + 3x – 2,
Remainder – 9

= y2(y – 6) + 6ysup>2 – 216
To get the, term 6 y2 multiply (y – 6) by 6y and add 36y,
= y2(y – 6) + 6y(y – 6) + 36y – 216
= y2(y – 6) + 6y(y – 6) + 36y – 216
To get the term 36y, multiply (y- 6) by 36 and add 216,
= y2 (y – 6) + 6y(y – 6) + 36(y – 6) + 216 – 216
= (y – 6) (y2 + 6y + 36) + 0
Quotient = y2 + 6y + 36

2x4 + 3x3 + 4x – 2x2 = 2x2 + 3x3 – 2x2 + 4x
To get the term 2x4, multiply (x + 3) by 2x3 and subtract 6x3,
= 2x3(x + 31 – 6x3 + 3x3 – 2x2 + 4x
= 2x3(x + 3) – 3x3 – 2x2 + 4x

To get the term – 3x3, multiply (x + 3) by -3x2 and add 9x2,
= 2x3(x + 3) – 3x2(x + 3) + 9x2 – 2x2 + 4x
= 2x3(x + 3) – 3x2(x + 3) + 7x2 + 4x

To get the term 7x2, multiply (x + 3) by 7x and subtract 21x,
= 2x3(x + 3) – 3x2(x + 3) + 7x(x + 3) – 21x + 4x
= 2x3(x + 3) – 3x2(x + 3) + 7x(x + 3) – 17x

Question 1.
Use the given letters to write the answer.
i. There are ‘a’ trees in the village Lat. If the number of trees increases every year by ’b‘. then how many trees will there be after ‘x’ years?
ii. For the parade there are y students in each row and x such row are formed. Then, how many students are there for the parade in all ?
iii. The tens and units place of a two digit number is m and n respectively. Write the polynomial which represents the two digit number.
Solution:
i. Number of trees in the village Lat = a
Number of trees increasing each year = b
∴ Number of trees after x years = a + bx
∴ There will be a + bx trees in the village Lat after x years.

ii. Total rows = x
Number of students in each row = y
∴ Total students = Total rows × Number of students in each row
= x × y
= xy
∴ There are in all xy students for the parade.

iii. Digit in units place = n
Digit in tens place = m
∴ The two digit number = 10 x digit in tens place + digit in units place
= 10m + n
∴ The polynomial representing the two digit number is 10m + n.

Question 2.
Add the given polynomials.
i. x3 – 2x2 – 9; 5x3 + 2x + 9
ii. -7m4+ 5m3 + √2 ; 5m4 – 3m3 + 2m2 + 3m – 6
iii. 2y2 + 7y + 5; 3y + 9; 3y2 – 4y – 3
Solution:
i. (x3 – 2x2 – 9) + (5x3 + 2x + 9)
= x3 – 2x2 – 9 + 5x3 + 2x + 9
= x3 + 5x3 – 2x2 + 2x – 9 + 9
= 6x3 – 2x2 + 2x

ii. (-7m4 + 5m3 + √2 ) + (5m4 – 3m3 + 2m2 + 3m – 6)
= -7m4 + 5m3 + √2 + 5m4 – 3m3 + 2m2 + 3m – 6
= -7m4 + 5m4 + 5m3 – 3m3 + 2m2 + 3m +√2 – 6
= -2m4 + 2m3 + 2m2 + 3m + √2 – 6

iii. (2y2 + 7y + 5) + (3y + 9) + (3y2 – 4y – 3)
= 2y2 + 7y + 5 + 3y + 9 + 3y2 – 4y – 3
= 2y2 + 3y2 + 7y + 3y – 4y + 5 + 9 – 3
= 5y2 + 6y + 11

Question 3.
Subtract the second polynomial from the first.
i. x2 – 9x + √3 ; – 19x + √3 + 7x2
ii. 2ab2 + 3a2b – 4ab; 3ab – 8ab2 + 2a2b
Solution:
i. x2 – 9x + √3 -(- 19x + √3 + 7x2)
= x2 – 9x + √3 + 19x – √ 3 – 7x2
= x2 – 7x29x + 19x + √3 – √3
= – 6x2 + 10x

ii. (2ab2 + 3a2b – 4ab) – (3ab – 8ab2 + 2a2b)
= 2ab2 + 3a2b – 4ab – 3ab + 8ab2 – 2a2b
= 2ab2 + 8ab2 + 3a2b – 2a2b 4ab – 3ab
= 10ab2 + a2b – 7ab

Question 4.
Multiply the given polynomials.
i. 2x; x2 – 2x – 1
ii. x5 – 1; x3 + 2x2 + 2
iii. 2y +1; y2 – 2y + 3y
Solution:
i. (2x) x (x2 – 2x – 1) = 2x3 – 4x2 – 2x

ii. (x5 – 1) × (x3 + 2x2 + 2)
= x5 (x3 + 2x2 + 2) -1(x3 + 2x2 + 2)
= x8 + 2x7 + 2x5 – x3 – 2x2 – 2

iii. (2y + 1) × (y2 – 2y3 + 3y)
= 2y(y2 – 2y3 + 3y) + 1(y2 – 2y3 + 3y)
= 2y3 – 4y4 + 6y2 + y2 – 2y3 + 3y
= -4y4 + 2y3 – 2y3 + 6y2 + y2 + 3y
= -4y4 + 7y2 + 3y

Now, Dividend = Divisor x Quotient + Remainder
∴ x3 – 64 = (x – 4)(x2 + 4x + 16) + 0

ii. 5x5 + 4x4 – 3x3 + 2x2 + 2 = 5x5 + 4x4 – 3x3 + 2x + 0x + 2
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Polynomials Practice Set 3.2 2
∴ Quotient = 5x3 + 9x2 + 6x + 8,
Remainder = 8x + 2
Now, Dividend = Divisor x Quotient + Remainder
∴ 5x5 + 4x4 – 3x3 + 2x2 + 2 = (x2 – x)(5x3 + 9x2 + 6x + 8) + (8x + 2)

Question 6.
Write down the information in the form of algebraic expression and simplify.
There is a rectangular farm with length (2a2 + 3b2) metre and breadth (a2 + b2) metre. The farmer used a square shaped plot of the farm to build a house. The side of the plot was (a2 – b2) metre. What is the area of the remaining part of the farm? [4 Marks]
Solution:
Length of the rectangular farm = (2a2 + 3b2) m
Breadth of the rectangular farm = (a2 + b2) m
Area of the farm = length x breadth = (2a2 + 3b2) x (a2 + b2)
= 2a2(a2 + b2) + 3b2(a2 + b2)
= 2a2 + 2a2b2 + 3a2b2 + 3b4
= (2a4 + 5a2b2 + 3b4) sq. m … (i)
The farmer used a square shaped plot of the farm to build a house.
Side of the square shaped plot = (a2 – b2) m
∴ Area of the plot = (side)2
= (a2 – b2)2
= (a4 – 2a2b2 + b4) sq m… .(ii)

∴ Area of the remaining farm = Area of the farm – Area of the plot
= (2a4 + 5a2b2 + 3b4) – (a4 – 2a2b2 + b4) … [From (i) and (ii)]
= 2a4 + 5a2b2 + 3b4 – a4 + 2a2b2 – b4
= 2a4 – a4 + 5a2b2 + 2a2b2 + 3b4 – b4
= a4 + 7a2b2 + 2b4
∴ The area of the remaining farm is (a4 + 7a2b2 + 2b4) sq. m.
