MCQ 11 Mark
Which of the following is a pair of like terms?
  • A
    $-7 x y^2 z,-7 x^2 y z$
  • $-10 x y z^2, 3 x y z^2$
  • C
    $3 x y z, 3 x^2 y 2 z^2$
  • D
    $4 x y z^2, 4 x^2 y z$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$-10 x y z^2, 3 x y z^2$

Like terms are those terms, having same algebraic factor.
Hence, $-10 a y z^2$ and $3 a y z^2$ are like terms as they contain $x y z^2$ same factor.

The expression for the number of diagonals that we can make from one vertex of a $n$ sided polygon is:
  • A
    $2n + 1$
  • B
    $n - 2$
  • C
    $5n + 2$
  • $n - 3$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$n - 3$
Since, vertex is formed by joining two sides. Diagonal is line segment joining the two opposite vertex.
So, number of diagonal formed by one vertex $= n - 3.$

MCQ 71 Mark
$-b - 0$ is equal to:
  • $-1 \times b$
  • B
    $1 - b - 0$
  • C
    $0 - (-1) \times b$
  • D
    $-b - 0 - 1$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$-1 \times b$
$i.$ We have, $-b - 0 = -b$
$ii. -1 \times b = - b$
$iii. 1 - b - 0 = 1 - b$
$iv. 0 - (-1) \times b = 0 + b = b$
$v. -b - 0 - 1 = -b - 1$
Hence, option $(a)$ is correct.

MCQ 81 Mark
Identify the binomial out of the following:
  • A
    $3 x y^2+5 y-x^2 y$
  • B
    $x^2 y-5 y-x^2 y$
  • C
    $x y+y z+z x$
  • $3 x y^2+5 y-x y^2$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$3 x y^2+5 y-x y^2$

We know that, an algebraic expression containing two terms is called binomial. So, taking option $(d)$, $3 x y^2+5 y-x y^2=2 x^2 y+5 y$ As it contains only two terms.
Hence it is known as binomial.

The number of scarfs of length half metre that can be made from $y$ metres of cloth is:
  • $2\text{y}$
  • B
    $\frac{\text{y}}{2}$
  • C
    $\text{y}+2$
  • D
    $\text{y}+\frac{1}{2}$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$2\text{y}$
We have
Length of $1$ scarf $=\frac{1}{2}\text{m}$
So, number of scarf’s which can be made from $y$ meters $=\text{y}\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)=2\text{y}$

The sum of $x^4-x y+2 y^2$ and $-x^4+x y+2 y^2$ is:
  • Monomial and polynomial in $y$.
  • B
    Binomial and Polynomial.
  • C
    Trinomial and polynomial.
  • D
    Monomial and polynomial in $x$.
Answer
Correct option: A.
Monomial and polynomial in $y$.
$\text { Required sum }=\left(x^4-x y+2 y^2\right)+\left(-x^4+x y+2 y^2\right)$
$=x^4-x y+2 y^2-x^4+x y+2 y^2=\left[\left(x^4+\left(-x^4\right)\right]+(-x y+x y)+\left(2 y^2+2 y^2\right)\right.$
$=0+0+4 y^2=4 y^2$
$4 y^2$ is a monomial and polynomial in $y$.
