Free Algebraic Expressions 03 Practice Test - 7th grade
Question 1
25x2+5+15 is a binomial.
True
False
SOLUTION
Solution : B
A polynomial with two unlike terms is called a binomial and the one with three unlike terms is called a trinomial.
Hence, 25x2+5+15 is a trinomial.
Question 2
The algebraic expression "x” does not contain any constant term.
True
False
SOLUTION
Solution : A
In the expression "x”, the variable is x and it does not have any constant term.
For example, in the expression 5 + 10y, the constant term is 5.
Hence, the statement is correct.
Question 3
The coefficient of x in '2x +5y' is
SOLUTION
Solution : Coefficient is defined as a number or symbol multiplied to a variable or an unknown quantity in an algebraic term. The coefficient of x in '2x + 5y' is 2.
Question 4
On subtracting (x+a) from (4x+3a), the result obtained is_____.
3x+2a
9x+6a
11x+2a
3x+7a
SOLUTION
Solution : A
Arrange the polynomials with like terms one below the other. Change the sign of each term to be subtracted and then combine the like terms.
4x + 3a x + a(−) (−) 3x + 2a
(4x+3a)−(x+a)=3x+2a
Question 5
Find the value of the expression 5ab for a = 3, b = 2.
30
40
50
69
SOLUTION
Solution : A
5ab=5×a×b
Given, a = 3, b = 25ab =5×3×2=30
Question 6
2x and (−12) are
SOLUTION
Solution :The 'term' of an algebraic expression is either a single number or variable, or number and variables multiplied together.
When such terms are added, it forms an algebraic expression.
So, 2x and (−12) are terms of the algebraic expression (2x−12).
Here, we should notice that ‘minus’ is associated with the terms.
Question 7
Perimeter of a square plot with side 2x is 40 units. Find the length of the side of the square plot.
5 units
16 units
10 units
20 units
SOLUTION
Solution : C
Perimeter of square = 40 units
4× side = 40
4×2x = 40
8x = 40So, x = 5 units.
So, the length of each side is 5×2 = 10 units.
Question 8
In the options given below, there are a few terms picked from an algebraic expression in x and y.
Which of them is/are variable?
xy
4x+6y
pxy
7
SOLUTION
Solution : A, B, and C
A constant is a number on its own which has a fixed value whose value does not change.
In the given options the values of 'xy', '4x+6y' and 'pxy' are not fixed and can change depending on which value 'x' and 'y' takes, but '7' is a fixed value.
So '7' is a constant and others are variables.
Question 9
The coefficient of xy in the expression '12xy + 6' is
SOLUTION
Solution : In the expression '12xy + 6', 'xy' is the variable part and it is multiplied to a constant part, which is called co-efficient of the variable.
In this case the coefficient of xy is 12.
Question 10
The given expression '2x2+3y+5z2+10p+6y+7x2', on simplification gives:
9x2+9y+5z2+10p
11x2+2y+10z2+10p
9x2+12y+5z2+10p
19x2+10y+5z2+10p
SOLUTION
Solution : A
Given expression is
2x2+3y+5z2 +10p+6y+7x2
Group the like terms:
= (2x2+7x2) + (3y+6y) + 10p + 5z2Solve groups:
= x2(2+7)+y(3+6)+5z2+10p
= 9x2+9y+5z2+10p
