= 15 + a
According to question:
p(3) = q(3)
⟹ 27a + 41 = 15 + a
⟹ 27a – a = 15 – 41
⟹ 26a = – 26
⟹ a = –1
Question 2:
Answer 2:
Given polynomials:
57
NCERT Exemplar Class 9 Maths
= 1 –2(–1) + 3 – a(–1) + 3a – 7
= 1 + 2 + 3 + a + 3a – 7
= 4a – 1
According to question:
p(–1) = 19
⟹ 4a – 1 = 19
⟹ 4a = 20
⟹a=5
= 16 + 16 + 12 + 18 = 62
Question 3:

1
If both x – 2 and x − are factors of px2 + 5x + r, show that p
2
= r.
Answer 3:
Given polynomials:
f(x) = px2 + 5x + r
2
f(2) = p(2) + 5(2) + r
⟹ 0 = 4p + 10 + r
⟹ 4p + r = – 10 … (i)
1
Since, x − is factors of f(x)

When f(x) is divided by x − , the remainder is zero.

Question 4:
Answer 4:
Given polynomials:
Here, g(x) = x2 – 3x + 2
= x2 – x – 2x + 2
= x(x – 1) – 2(x – 1)
= (x – 2)(x – 1)

= 32 – 40 + 8 – 2 + 2
= 42 – 42
=0
=2–5+2–1+2
=6–6
=0
⟹ x2 – 3x + 2 is a factor of f(x).

[∵ a3 – b3 = (a – b)(a2 + ab + b2)]
= (–10y)[(12x2 + 25y2]

Question 8:
Answer 8:
52 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2(ab + bc + ca)
⟹ 25 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2(10)
⟹ 25 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 20
⟹ a2 + b2 + c2 = 5

Question 9:
3
Prove that (a + b + c) – a3 – b3 – c 3
= 3(a + b ) (b + c ) (c +
a).
Answer 9:
3
LHS = (a + b + c) – a3 – b3 – c 3
3
= [(a + b + c) – a3] – [b3 + c 3]
