Hint: 3c + 10
(ii) True
(iii) False
(iv) True
(v) False
Hint: 7y – 7

(i) ‘t’ is added to 100
(ii) 4 times ‘q’
(iii) 8 is reduced by ‘y’
(iv) 56 added to 2 times ‘x’
(v) 4 less to 9 times of ‘y’
Solution:
(i) t + 100
(ii) 4q
(iii) 8 – y
(iv) 2x + 56
(v) 9y – 4

Question 4.
Express the following algebraic statement to a verbal statement.
(i) x ÷ 3
(ii) 5n – 12
(iii) 11 + 10x
(iv) 70s
Solution:
(i) x divided by 3.
(ii) 12 less to 5 times n.
(iii) 11 added to 10 times x
(iv) 7 times s.

Question 5.
The teacher asked two students to write the algebraic statement for the verbal statement “8 more than a number”. Vetri wrote ‘8 + x’ but Maran wrote ‘8x’. Who gave the correct answer?
Solution:
Let the number be x; 8 more than the number = 8 + x.
Vetri gave the correct answer as 8 + x.

Question 6.
Answer the following questions.
(i) If ‘n’ takes the value 3 then find the value of ‘n + 10’?
(ii) If ‘g’ is equal to 300 what is the value of ‘g – 1’ and ‘g + 1’?
(iii) What is the value of ‘s’, if ‘2s – 6’ gives 30?
Solution:
(i) n = 3
n + 10 = 3 + 10 = 13

(ii) g = 300
g – 1 = 300 – 1
= 299
g + 1 = 300 + 1
=301

(iii) 2s – 6 = 30
2s = 30 + 6
2s = 36
s = 36/2
s = 18

Question 7.
Complete the table and find the value of ‘k’ for which ‘k/3’ gives 5.

Solution:

$$\frac{k}{3}$$ = 5
k = 15

Question 8.
The value of ‘y’ in y + 7 = 13 is
(a) y = 5
(b) y = 6
(c) y = 7
(d) y = 8
Solution:
(b) y = 6
Hint: y = 13 – 7 = 6

Question 9.
6 less to ‘n’ gives 8 is represented as
(a) n – 6 = 8
(b) 6 – n = 8
(c) 8 – n = 6
(d) n – 8 = 6
Solution:
(a) n – 6 = 8

Question 10.
The value of ‘c’ for which $$\frac{3c}{4}$$ gives 18 is
(a) c = 15
(b) c = 21
(c) c = 24
(d) c = 27
Solution:
(c) c = 24
