Question

"Question 7 Find and correct the errors in the statement: (2x)^2 + 4(2x) + 7 = 2x^2 + 8x + 7

Class 8 Factorisation Page 228"

Answer 1

Common errors we done by solving algebraical expression and equation:

 
Error 1
Coefficient 1 of a term is usually not written. So we often ignores that. But while adding like terms, we should include it in the sum.

 
Error 2
When we multiply the expression enclosed in a bracket by a constant (or a variable) outside, we usually applied the multiplication to first term only. This is wrong calculation. Each term of the expression has to be multiplied by the constant (or the variable).

 
Error 3
when we square a monomial, we usually ignored the   numerical coefficient. This is wrong method. The   numerical coefficient and each factor has to be squared.

 
Error 4
when we square a binomial, we usually do not apply the proper identity. This is wrong approach. The right identity should be used.

Error 5

While dividing a polynomial by a monomial, We usually don’t divide each term of  the polynomial in the numerator by the monomial in the denominator.

==========================================================

Solution:

(2x)² + 4(2x) + 7 = 2x² + 8x + 7

LHS = (2x)²+ 4(2x) + 7

=4x²+8x+7


RHS = 2x² + 8x + 7

LHS≠ RHS

Correct statement 

(2x)² + 4(2x) + 7 =4x² +8x+7

==========================================================

Hope this will help you...

Answer 2

Answer:

(2x)² + 4(2x) + 7 =4x² +8x+7
