Question 10 Find and correct the errors in the following mathematical statements. Substituting x = – 3 in (a) š‘„^2 + 5x + 4 gives 怖"(– 3)" 怗^2+ 5 (– 3) + 4 = 9 + 2 + 4 = 15 š‘„^2 + 5x + 4 Putting x = āˆ’3 = 怖(āˆ’3)怗^2 + 5 (āˆ’3) + 4 = (āˆ’3 Ɨ āˆ’3) āˆ’ (5 Ɨ 3) + 4 = 9 āˆ’ 15 + 4 = āˆ’ 2 So, (–3)2 + 5(–3) + 4 = –2 is the correct statement Question 10 Find and correct the errors in the following mathematical statements. Substituting x = – 3 in (b) š‘„^2 – 5x + 4 gives 怖"(– 3)" 怗^2– 5 ( – 3) + 4 = 9 – 15 + 4 = – 2 š‘„^2 + 5x + 4 Putting x = āˆ’3 = 怖(āˆ’3)怗^2 āˆ’ 5 (āˆ’3) + 4 = (āˆ’3 Ɨ āˆ’3) + (5 Ɨ 3) + 4 = 9 + 15 + 4 = 28 So, (–3)2 – 5(–3) + 4 = 28 is the correct statement Question 10 Find and correct the errors in the following mathematical statements. Substituting x = – 3 in (c) š‘„^2+ 5x gives 怖"(– 3)" 怗^2+ 5 (–3) = – 9 – 15 = – 24 š‘„^2 + 5x Putting x = āˆ’3 = 怖(āˆ’3)怗^2 + 5 (āˆ’3) = (āˆ’3 Ɨ āˆ’3) āˆ’ (5 Ɨ 3) = 9 āˆ’ 15 = āˆ’6 So, (–3)2 + 5(–3) = –6 is the correct statement
