(ii) 15 – 15 = ____ and 15ab – 15ab = ____
(iii) 5 – 13 = ____ and 5mn – 13mn = ____
(iv) 39 – 19 = ____ and 39xyz – 19xyz = ____
(v) 12 – 7 = ____ and 12abc – 7acb = ____
(vi) 13 – 1 =____ and 13amz – amz =____
2. Subtract arranging
the like terms:
(i) 2a – 7b from 8a – 11b + 7
(ii) –x3 + 3x2y + 2z3 from 9x3 – 5x2y – 4z3(iii) 8l – 4m - 2n from l – 3m – 7n
(iv) From 2a3 – b3 + 3c3 subtract 5a3 + b3 – c3
(v) From 5m2 – mn + 3n3 subtract 3m2 – 2nm – 2n3
(vi) From 5x4 + xy + 3y3 subtract 2x4 – 3xy – 2y3
3. Subtract the first term from the second term:
(i) 8m, 10m
(ii) 4xy, 6yx
(iii) 5mn, 7mn
(iv) 15ab, 30ab
(v) 17ax2, 9ax2(vi) 23pq, 18pq
4. The sum of two expressions is a – b + 4c if one of the term is 2a – 7b – c, find the other.
5. What should be subtracted from -11p + 3q – 5r to obtain 15p – 17q + 7r.
6. How much is a3 + b3 + c3 less than -2a3 + 5b3 – 9c3?Answers for the worksheet on subtraction of like terms are given below to check the exact answers of the above questions.
