1. Solve each of the following equations:

Concise Selina Solutions Class 10 Maths Chapter 5 ex. 5(E) - 1

Solution:

Given equation,

Concise Selina Solutions Class 10 Maths Chapter 5 ex. 5(E) - 2

4x2 + 6x + x – 3 + 3x + 9 = 0

4x2 + 10x + 6 = 0

4x2 + 4x + 6x + 6 = 0

4x(x + 1) + 6(x + 1) = 0

(4x + 6) (x + 1) = 0

So, 4x + 6 = 0 or x + 1 = 0

x = -1 or x = -6/4 = -3/2 (rejected as this value is excluded in the domain)

Therefore,

x = -1 is the only solution

2. (2x + 3)2 = 81

Solution:

Given, (2x + 3)2 = 81

Taking square root on both sides we have,

2x + 3 = ± 9

2x = ± 9 – 3

x = (± 9 – 3)/ 2

So,

x = (9 – 3)/ 2 or (-9 – 3)/ 2

Therefore,

x = 3 or x = -6

3. a2x2 – b2 = 0

Solution:

Given equation, a2x2 – b2 = 0

(ax)2 – b2 = 0

(ax + b)(ax – b) = 0

So,

ax + b = 0 or ax – b = 0

Therefore,

x = -b/a or b/a

4. x2 – 11/4 x + 15/8 = 0

Solution:

Given equation, x2 – 11/4 x + 15/8 = 0

Taking L.C.M we have,

(8x2 – 22x + 15)/ 8 = 0

8x2 – 22x + 15 = 0

8x2 – 12x – 10x + 15 = 0

4x(2x – 3) – 5(2x – 3) = 0

(4x – 5)(2x – 3) = 0

So, 4x – 5 = 0 or 2x – 3 = 0

Therefore,

x = 5/4 or x = 3/2

5. x + 4/x = -4; x ≠ 0

Solution:

Given equation, x + 4/x = -4

(x2 + 4)/ x = -4

x2 + 4 = -4x

x2 + 4x + 4 = 0

x2 + 2x + 2x + 4 = 0

x(x + 2) + 2(x + 2) = 0

(x + 2)(x + 2) = 0

(x + 2)2 = 0

Taking square – root we have,

x + 2 = 0

Therefore, x = -2

6. 2x4 – 5x2 + 3 = 0

Solution:

Given equation, 2x4 – 5x2 + 3 = 0

Let’s take x2 = y

Then, the equation becomes

2y2 – 5y + 3 = 0

2y2 – 2y – 3y + 3 = 0

2y(y – 1) – 3(y – 1) = 0

(2y – 3) (y – 1) = 0

So, 2y – 3 = 0 or y – 1 = 0

y = 3/2 or y = 1

And, we have taken y = x2

Thus,

x2 = 3/2 or x2 = 1

x = ± √(3/2) or x = ±1

7. x4 – 2x2 – 3 = 0

Solution:

Given equation, x4 – 2x2 – 3 = 0

Let’s take x2 = y

Then, the equation becomes

y2 – 2y – 3 = 0

y2 – 3y + y – 3 = 0

y(y – 3) + 1(y – 3) = 0

(y + 1)(y – 3) = 0

So, y + 1 = 0 or y – 3 = 0

y = -1 or y = 3

And, we have taken y = x2

Thus,

x2 = – 1(impossible, no real solution)

x2 = 3

x = ± √3

8. Concise Selina Solutions Class 10 Maths Chapter 5 ex. 5(E) - 3

Solution:

Let us take (x + 1/x) = y …. (1)

Now, squaring it on both sides

(x + 1/x)2 = y2

x2 + 1/x2 + 2 = y2

So,

x2 + 1/x2 = y2 – 2 ….. (2)

Using (1) and (2) in the given equation, we have

9(y2 – 2) – 9(y) – 52 = 0

9y2 – 18 – 9y – 52 = 0

9y2 – 9y – 70 = 0

9y2 – 30y + 21y – 70 = 0

3y(3y – 10) + 7(3y – 10) = 0

(3y + 7)(3y – 10) = 0

So, 3y + 7 = 0 or 3y – 10 = 0

y = -7/3 or y = 10/3

Now,

x + 1/x = -7/3 or x + 1/x = 10/3

(x2 + 1)/x = -7/3 or (x2 + 1)/x = 10/3

3x2 – 10x + 3 = 0 or 3x2 + 7x + 3 = 0

Concise Selina Solutions Class 10 Maths Chapter 5 ex. 5(E) - 43x2 – 9x – x + 3 = 0 or

3x(x – 3) – 1(x – 3) = 0

(3x – 1)(x – 3) = 0

So, x = 1/3 or 3

9. Concise Selina Solutions Class 10 Maths Chapter 5 ex. 5(E) - 5

Solution:

Let us take (x + 1/x) = y …. (1)

Now, squaring it on both sides

(x + 1/x)2 = y2

x2 + 1/x2 + 2 = y2

So,

x2 + 1/x2 = y2 – 2 ….. (2)

Using (1) and (2) in the given equation, we have

2(y2 – 2) – (y) = 11

2y2 – 4 – y = 11

2y2 – y – 15 = 0

2y2 – 6y + 5y – 15 = 0

2y(y – 3) + 5(y – 3) = 0

(2y + 5) (y – 3) = 0

So,

2y + 5 = 0 or y – 3 = 0

y = -5/2 or y = 3

Now,

x + 1/x = -5/2 or x + 1/x = 3

(x2 + 1)/x = -5/2 or (x2 + 1)/x = 3

2(x2 + 1) = -5x or x2 + 1 = 3x

2x2 + 5x + 2 = 0 or x2 – 3x + 1 = 0

Concise Selina Solutions Class 10 Maths Chapter 5 ex. 5(E) - 62x2 + 4x + x + 2 = 0 or

2x(x + 2) + 1(x + 2) = 0

(2x + 1)(x + 2) = 0

Hence, x = -1/2 or -2

10. Concise Selina Solutions Class 10 Maths Chapter 5 ex. 5(E) - 7

Solution:

Let us take (x – 1/x) = y …. (1)

Now, squaring it on both sides

(x – 1/x)2 = y2

x2 + 1/x2 – 2 = y2

So,

x2 + 1/x2 = y2 + 2 ….. (2)

Using (1) and (2) in the given equation, we have

(y2 + 2) – 3(y) – 2 = 0

y2 -3y = 0

y(y – 3) = 0

So, y = 0 or y – 3 = 0

Now,

(x – 1/x) = 0 or (x – 1/x) = 3

x2 – 1 = 0 or x2 – 1 = 3x

x2 = 1 or x2 – 3x – 1 = 0

Concise Selina Solutions Class 10 Maths Chapter 5 ex. 5(E) - 8Therefore,

x = ± 1 or
