Let us assume (2a – b) = x

9x2 – 4x – 13

9x2 – 13x + 9x – 13

x(9x – 13)+1 (9x + 3)

(9x – 13) (x + 1)

[9(2a – b) – 13] [2a – b + 1]

(18a – 9b – 13) (2a – b + 1)

32. Question

Factorize:

7(x-2y) 2-25(x-2y)+12

Answer

Given,

7(x – 2y)2 – 25 (x – 2y) + 12

Let a = (x – 2y),

So we have,

= 7a2 – 25a + 12
= 7a2 – 21a – 4a + 12

= 7a(a - 3) -4 (a - 3)

= (7a – 4) (a - 3)

Put a = (x – 2y)

= {7(x – 2y) – 4} (x – 2y - 3)

= (7x – 14y -4) (x – 2y - 3)

33. Question

Factorize:

2(x+y)2-9(x+y)-5

Answer

Given,

2(x+y)2 – 9(x+y) – 5,

= 2a2 -9a – 5

Let (x+y) = a

= 2a2 – 10a+a – 5

= 2a (a-5) +1(a-5)

= (2a+1) (a-5)

= {2(x+y)+1}(x+y-5)

(2x+2y+1) (x+y-5)

34. Question

Give possible expressions for the length and breadth of the rectangle having 35y2+13y-12 as its area.

Answer

We know that,

Area of rectangle = length × breadth

Given,

35y2 + 13y – 12 = 35y2 + 28y – 15y -12

= 7y(5y+4) -3 (5y + 4)

= (7y – 3) (5y + 4)

Thus,

Length = (7y – 3), then breadth = (5y + 4)

Length = (5y + 4), then breadth = (7y – 3)

35. Question
