4. (d) Sum of a rational and irrational number is always an irrational number

p
Explanation: Let the rational number be of the form , where p ∈ Z, while the rational number be r. q
p p
If r + q
is a rational then we have that, r + q
= a

b
for some a ∈ Z and b ∈ Z.
p aq−bp
This means that r = a

b
−
q
=
bq
where aq – bp ∈ Z
this contradicts the facts that r is irrational.
p
Hence, our assumption that r + is a rational is false. q

Hence, it is an irrational number.

or
Sum of a rational and irrational number is always an irrational number.
for eg. a= 1 (which is rational)

a+b = 1+√2 = 1+ 1.414... = 2.414...

While, converting 7.478478…. into q
form, we get
x = 7.478478 . . . . . . . (a)

1000x = 7478.478478 . . . . . . (b)

While, subtracting (a) from (b), we get

x

Let x = a and 1

x

Say, x − 1

x

Then, a3 - b3 = 14
⇒ (a - b)(a2 + ab + b2) = 14
⇒ (a - b)( {(a - b)2 + 2ab} + 2ab) = 14
⇒ (a - b){(a-b)2 + 3ab} = 14
⇒ (a - b){(a - b)2 + 3} = 14
⇒ A(A2 + 3) = 14
⇒ A(A2 + 3) = 14
⇒ A3 + 3A - 14 = 0
⇒ A3 - 2A2 + 2A2 - 4A + 7 A - 14 = 0
⇒ A2(A - 2) + 2Y(Y - 2) + 7(Y - 2) = 0
⇒ (A-2)(A2+ 2A + 7) = 0
⇒ A - 2 = 0, ⇒ A = 2

Explanation: firstly, we will divide x​2 + mx + 14 by x+2
when we divide them remainder comes to be 18-2m........1
since x+2 is a factor of x​2 + mx + 14
therefore remainder should be zero......2

14. (b) 35
Explanation: (a + b + c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca
Hence, 92 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2 × 23
⇒ a2 + b2 + c2 = 35
15. The given expression may be rewritten as,
xy(x3y3 − 1)
= xy((xy)3 − 13)
= xy(xy − 1)((xy)2 + xy × 1 + 12)
∴ [x3 − y3 = (x − y)(x2 + xy + y2)]
= xy(xy − 1)(x2y2 + xy + 1)
x4y4 − xy = xy(xy − 1)(x2y2 + xy + 1)

= (3a)2 - (8b)2 + (3a - 8b)
= (3a + 8b) (3a - 8b) + (3a - 8b) [∵ a2 - b2 = (a - b)(a + b)]
= (3a - 8b)(3a + 8b + 1)

g(x) = x - 7
g(x)=0
⇒ x-7=0

To prove that g(x) is the factor of f(x),we must have,
f(7)=0
Substitute the value of x in f(x)
f(7) = 73 - 6(7)2 - 19(7) + 84
= 343 - (6 × 49) - (19 × 7) + 84
= 342 - 294 - 133 + 84

Using the remainder therorem,

11
Remainder = p(−1) = (−1) + 101

= −1 + 101 = 100

23. By long division, we have

∴ quotient, q(x) = 3x3 + 2x2 + 4x + 5 and remainder, r(x) = 9

Now, g(x) × q(x) + r(x) = (x - 2) (3x3 + 2x2 + 4x + 5) + 9
= 3x4 - 4x3 - 3x - 10 + 9
= 3x4 - 4x3 - 3x - 1 = p(x)
∴ p(x) = g(x) × q(X) + r(x), where degree r(x) = 0 < 1 = degree g(x)

Therefore, division algorithm is verified.

Also, p(2) = 3 × 24 - 4 × 23 - 3 × 2 - 1 = 48 - 32 - 6 - 1 = 9
Since p(2) is not zero, therefore 2 is not a zero of p(x).

6 which are ± 1, ± 2, ± 3, ± 6
and the values of q are limited to the highest degree coefficient i.e 2 which are ± 1, ± 2
here, the possible rational roots are ± 1, ± 2, ± 3, ± 6, ± , ± 1

But from all the factors only -1, 2 and − 2
gives the result as zero.Further,since f(x) is of degree 3, therefore it has almost 3 rooots.
