Q.1. Get the algebraic expressions in the following cases using variables, constants and arithmetic operations.
(i) Subtraction of z from y.
(ii) One-half of the sum of numbers x and y.
(iii) The number z multiplied by itself.
(iv) One-fourth of the product of numbers p and q.
(v) Numbers x and y both squared and added.
(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.
Ans:
(i) Subtraction of z from y.
= Y – z
(ii) One-half of the sum of numbers x and y.
$=\frac{x+y}{2}$
(iii) The number z multiplied by itself.
=z × z = z2
(iv) One-fourth of the product of numbers p and q.
$\mathsf{=}\frac{\mathsf{1}}{\mathsf{4}}\mathsf{(p\times q)=}\frac{\mathsf{pq}}{\mathsf{4}}$
(v) Numbers x and y both squared and added.
= x2 + y2
(vi) Number 5 added to three times the product of numbers m and n.
= 3mn + 5
(vii) Product of numbers y and z subtracted from 10.
= 10 – (y x z) = 10 – yz
(viii) Sum of numbers a and b subtracted from their product.
= (a x b) – (a + b) = ab- (a + b)

Ans:
Monomials: An expression with only one term is called a monomial.
Binomials: An expression with only two term is called a binomial.
Trinomials: An expression with only three term is called a trinomial.
Q.6. State whether a given pair of terms is of like or unlike terms.
(i) 1, 100
(ii) $-7x,\frac{5}{2}x$
(iii) –29x,–29y
(iv) 14xy, 42yx
(v) 4m2p, 4mp2
(vi) 12xz, 12x2z2
Ans:
Like terms: When term have the same algebraic factors, they are like terms.
All constant are like terms.
Unlike terms: The terms have different algebraic factors, they are unlike terms.
