(vi) Number 5 added to three times the product of numbers m and n.

(vii) Product of numbers y and z subtracted from 10.

(viii) Sum of numbers a and b subtracted from their product.

Solution:-

(i) 

Here, in the question it is given that we have to subtract the value z from the value Y.

We know that for subtracting we use the symbol ”-“

So, by applying the given condition.

= y – z

(ii)

Here, in the question it is given that we have to add the value of x in the value of y, than make it one-half.

We know that to make any value equal to one-half we have to multiply that value with ½

So, by applying the given condition.

= ½ (x + y)

= (x + y)/2

(iii) 

Here, in the question it is given that we have to multiply the value z with itself means we have to multiply the value z with the value z.

So, by applying the given condition.

 = z × z

= z2

(iv) 

Here, in the question it is given that we have to obtain the one-fourth of the product of the number p and q.

Now, to obtain the product of the number of p and q we have to multiply then and to obtain the one-fourth of the product we have to multiply that whole number by ¼.

So, by applying the given condition.

= ¼ (p × q)

= pq/4

(v)

Here, in the question it is given that we have to we have to add the squares of the number x and y.

Now, here first we need to obtain the squares of the number x and y.

So, to obtain the squares of any number we multiply that number with itself and after obtaining the squares we need to add then.

So, by applying the given condition.

= x+ y2

(vi) 

Here, in the question it is given that we have to first multiply the number m and n and after that we need to obtain the three times of that number and then we gave to add 5 to that whole number.

So, by applying the given condition.

= 3mn + 5

(vii) 

Here, in the question it is given that we have to subtract the product of the number y and z from 10.

Now, we first need to obtain the product of the number y and z, so, to obtain the product we multiply, by multiplying the number y and z we obtain the product.

After that subtract that product from 10.

So, by applying the given condition.

= 10 – (y × z)

= 10 – yz

(viii) 

Here, in the question it is given that we have to subtract the sum of the number a and b from the product of the number a and b.

So, first we need to obtain the product and sum of the number a and b then subtract the sum from the product.

So, by applying the given condition.

= (a × b) – (a + b)

= ab – (a + b)

= 4 + 5 + 3x – 4x + 2x2

= 9 – x + 2x2

= 2x2 – x + 9 … [equation 1]

Now in the second part of the question we required to add the other two expression. Which is 3x2 – 5x and – x2 + 2x + 5.

So, by adding them we get

= 3x2 – 5x – x2 + 2x + 5

= 3x2 – x2 – 5x + 2x + 5

= 2x2 – 3x + 5 … [equation 2]

Now, at last we need to subtract the values obtained by adding last two expression from the first try expression. So, by subtracting equation (2) from equation (1) we get

= 2x– x + 9 – (2x2 – 3x + 5)

= 2x2 – x + 9 – 2x2 + 3x – 5

NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 12 Algebraic Expressions Image 9

Now, 

For 5 digits, we required the number of segments = ((3 × 5) + 1)

= (15 + 1)

= 16

For 10 digits, we required the number of segments  = ((3 × 10) + 1)

= (30 + 1)

= 31

For 100 digits, we required the number of segments  = ((3 × 100) + 1)

= (300 + 1)

= 301

(c) 

Here, in the question, we have given that we need n digits of the same kind to form the number of segments is (5n+2)

Now,

For 5 digits, we required the number of segments = ((5 × 5) + 2)

= (25 + 2)

= 27

For 10 digits, we required the number of segments = ((5 × 10) + 2)

= (50 + 2)

= 52

For 100 digits, we required the number of segments = ((5 × 100) + 1)

= (500 + 2)

= 502

Solution:-

(i) 

Here, in the above table the algebraic expression is given as  (2n – 1)

So for 100th term we can calculate by putting the value of n as 100 in the above expression 

Then,

n = 100

= (2 × 100) – 1

= 200 – 1

= 199

(ii) 

Here, in the above table the algebraic expression is given as  (3n+2)

So for 5th term we can calculate by putting the value of n as 5 in the above expression 

Then,

n = 5

= (3 × 5) + 2

= 15 + 2

= 17

For 10th  term put n=10 in the above expression

 n = 10

= (3 × 10) + 2

= 30 + 2

= 32

Foin the above expression in the above expression

n = 100

= (3 × 100) + 2

= 300 + 2

= 302

(iii) 

Here, in the above table the algebraic expression is given as  (4n+1)

So for 5th term we can calculate by putting the value of n as 5 in the above expression 

Then,

n = 5

= (4 × 5) + 1

= 20 + 1

= 21

For 10th term put n=10 in the above expression

 n = 10

= (4 × 10) + 1

= 40 + 1

= 41

For 100th term put n=100 in the above expression

n = 100

= (4 × 100) + 1

= 400 + 1

= 401

(iv) 

Here, in the above table the algebraic expression is given as  (7n+20)

So for 5th term we can calculate by putting the value of n as 5 in the above expression 

Then,

n = 5

= (7 × 5) + 20

= 35 + 20

= 55

For 10th term put n=10 in the above expression

n = 10

= (7 × 10) + 20

= 70 + 20

= 90

For 100th term put n=100 in the above expression

n = 100

= (7 × 100) + 20

= 700 + 20

= 720

(v) 

Here, in the above table the algebraic expression is given as  (n²+1)

So for 5th term we can calculate by putting the value of n as 5 in the above expression 

Then,

n = 5

= (52) + 1

= 25+ 1

= 26

For 10th term n=10 in the above expression

Where n = 10

= (102) + 1

= 100 + 1

= 101

So, the table is completed below.

S. No.
