Maharashtra Board 9th Maths Chapter 3.1, Class 9 Maths Chapter 3.1 solutions

Question 1.
State whether the given algebraic expressions are polynomials? Justify.
i. y + 1y
ii. 2 – 5√x
iii. x² + 7x + 9
iv. 2m^-2 + 7m – 5
v. 10
Answer:
i. No, because power of v in the term 5√x is -1 (negative number).
ii. No, because the power of x in the term 5√x is
i. e. 0.5 (decimal number).
iii. Yes. All the coefficients are real numbers. Also, the power of each term is a whole number.
iv. No, because the power of m in the term 2m^-2 is -2 (negative number).
v. Yes, because 10 is a constant polynomial.

Question 2.
Write the coefficient of m³ in each of the given polynomial.
i. m³
ii. 2–√−3 + m – √3m³
iii. 3–√−2m³ + 5m² – 7m -1
Answer:
i. 1
ii. -√3
iii. – 23

Question 3.

ii. Binomial with degree 35
iii. Trinomial with degree 8
Answer:
i. 5x⁷
ii. x³⁵ – 1
iii. 3x⁸ + 2x⁶ + x⁵

Question 4.
Write the degree of the given polynomials.
i. √5
ii. x°
iii. x²
iv. √2m¹⁰ – 7
v. 2p – √7
vi. 7y – y³ + y⁵
vii. xyz +xy-z
viii. m³n⁷ – 3m⁵n + mn
Answer:
i. √5 = √5 x°
∴ Degree of the polynomial = 0

ii. x°
∴Degree of the polynomial = 0

iii. x²
∴Degree of the polynomial = 2

iv. √2m¹⁰ – 7
Here, the highest power of m is 10.
∴Degree of the polynomial = 10

v. 2p – √7
Here, the highest power of p is 1.
∴ Degree of the polynomial = 1

vi. 7y – y³ + y⁵
Here, the highest power of y is 5.
∴Degree of the polynomial = 5

vii. xyz + xy – z
Here, the sum of the powers of x, y and z in the term xyz is 1 + 1 + 1= 3,
which is the highest sum of powers in the given polynomial.
∴Degree of the polynomial = 3

viii. m³n⁷ – 3m⁵n + mn
Here, the sum of the powers of m and n in the term m³n⁷ is 3 + 7 = 10,
which is the highest sum of powers in the given polynomial.
∴ Degree of the polynomial = 10

Question 5.
Classify the following polynomials as linear, quadratic and cubic polynomial. [2 Marks]
i. 2x² + 3x +1
ii. 5p
iii. √2 – 12
iv. m³ + 7m² + 2–√5m – √7
v. a²
vi. 3r³
Answer:
Linear polynomials: ii, iii
Quadratic polynomials: i, v
Cubic polynomials: iv, vi

Question 6.
Write the following polynomials in standard form.
i. m³ + 3 + 5m
ii. – 7y + y⁵ + 3y³ – 12+ 2y⁴ – y²
Answer:
i. m³ + 5m + 3
ii. y⁵ + 2y⁴ + 3y³ – y² – 7y – 12

Question 7.
Write the following polynomials in coefficient form.
i. x³ – 2
ii. 5y
iii. 2m⁴ – 3m² + 7
iv. – 23
Answer:
i. x³ – 2 = x³ + 0x² + 0x – 2
∴ Coefficient form of the given polynomial = (1, 0, 0, -2)

ii. 5y = 5y + 0
∴Coefficient form of the given polynomial = (5,0)

iii. 2m⁴ – 3m² + 7
= 2m⁴ + Om³ – 3m² + 0m + 7
∴ Coefficient form of the given polynomial = (2, 0, -3, 0, 7)

iv. – 23
∴Coefficient form of the given polynomial = (- 23)

Question 8.
Write the polynomials in index form.
i. (1, 2, 3)
ii. (5, 0, 0, 0 ,-1)
iii. (-2, 2, -2, 2)
Answer:
i. Number of coefficients = 3
∴ Degree = 3 – 1 = 2
∴ Taking x as variable, the index form is x² + 2x + 3

ii. Number of coefficients = 5
∴ Degree = 5 – 1=4
∴ Taking x as variable, the index form is 5x⁴ + 0x³ + 0x² + 0x – 1

iii. Number of coefficients = 4
∴Degree = 4 – 1 = 3
∴Taking x as variable, the index form is -2x³ + 2x² – 2x + 2

Question 9.
Write the appropriate polynomials in the boxes.

Answer:
i. Quadratic polynomial: x²; 2x² + 5x + 10; 3x² + 5x
ii. Cubic polynomial: x³ + x² + x + 5; x³ + 9
iii. Linear polynomial: x + 7
iv. Binomial: x + 7; x³ + 9; 3x² + 5x
v. Trinomial: 2x² + 5x + 10
