It is given that, the curved surface area of the cylinder = 2\(\pi \)(y2+ 7y + 12).....(i)
We know that, the formula of curved surface area of the cylinder = 2\(\pi \)rh.....(ii)
where, r = Radius of the cylinder
h = Height of the cylinder
On comparing Eqs. (l) and (ii), we get
2\(\pi \)rh = 2\(\pi \)(y2+ 7y + 12)
r\(\times\)h=(y2+7y+12).....(iii)
But radius of the cylinder = R = (y + 3)
Putting this value in Eq.(iii), we get
(y+ 3)\(\times\)h =(y2 + 7y +12)
\(h=\frac { \left( { y }^{ 2 }+7y+12 \right) }{ \left( y+3 \right) } \)
We have to factorise (y2+ 7y + 12)
Since, 4 \(\times\) 3 = 12 and 4 + 3 = 7
Putting this value in (y2 + 7y + 12), we get
y2 + (4 + 3)y+ 4 \(\times\) 3
= y2+4y+3y+4x3
= y(y + 4)+ 3(y + 4)=(y + 4)(y + 3)
\(h=\frac { \left( { y }^{ 2 }+7y+12 \right) }{ \left( y+3 \right) } =\frac { \left( y+4 \right) \left( y+3 \right) }{ \left( y+3 \right) } \)
= (y + 4) units
Hence, height of the cylinder = (y + 4) units.

(i)(48)2=(50-2)2
Since, (a - b)2 = a2 - 2ab + b2
(50-2)2=(50)2-2x50x2+(2)2

= 2504 - 200 = 2304
(ii) 1812 -192 =(181-19)(181+ 19)
where, a = 50 and b = 2
= 162 x 200 = 32400
(iii) 497 x 505 =(500 - 3)(500 + 5)
= 5002 + (-3 + 5) x 500 + (-3)(5)
[.: (x + a)(x + b) = x2 + (a +. b) x + ab]
= 250000 + 1000 -15 = 250985

Given, polygon ABCDE is divided into four parts, so it is clear from given figure that
Area of polygon ABCDE =Area of ΔAFB + Area of trapezium FBCH + Area of ΔCHD+ Area of ΔADE ....(i)
Also, AD =8 cm, AH=6cm, AG = 4cm, AF=3 cm,BF = 2 cm, CH = 3 cm and EG = 2.5 cm
Now, area of ΔAFB = AF \(\times\)BD =\(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \times \) 3\(\times\) 2 = 3 cm2
Area of trapezium FBCH = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \times \)FH \(\times\)(BF+CH)
= \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \times \)3 \(\times\)(2+3)
[∵ FH= AH - AF=6 -3 =3 cm ]
=\(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \times \) 3 \(\times\)5 = =7.5 cm2
Area of ΔCHD =\(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \times \) HD \(\times\)CH
=\(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \times \) (AD-AH)\(\times\) CH [∵ HD=AD-AH]
=\(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \times \) (8-6)\(\times\)3 =\(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \times \) 2\(\times\)3 = 3 cm2
Now, area of ΔADE =\(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \times \) AD\(\times\) GE =\(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \times \) 8\(\times\) 2.5
= 4\(\times\) 2.5 = 10 cm2
On putting all these values in Eq. (i), we get
Area of polygon ABCDE = (3 + 7.5 + 3 + 10) = 23.5 cm2
14.
Let the number of Rs. 5 coins be x.
Then, the number of Rs. 2 coins = 3x
The total number of coins is 160 .
The number of coins of Rs. 1= 160 - (x + 3x)
= (160 - 4x)
The amount that I have from Rs. 5 coins = 5 x x = 5x
The amount that I have from Rs. 2 coins = 2 x 3x = 6x
The amount that I have from Rs. 1 coins
= 1 x (160 - 4x) = 160 - 4x
According to the question,
Total amount = 300
\(\Rightarrow\) 5x + 6x + (160 - 4x) = 300
\(\Rightarrow\) 5x +6x +160 - 4x = 300
\(\Rightarrow\) 7x + 160 = 300 [transposing 160 to RHS]
\(\Rightarrow\) 7x = 300 -160 [transposing 160 to RHS]
\(\Rightarrow\) 7x = 140
\(\Rightarrow\) x = \(\frac { 140 }{ 7 } \) = 20 [dividing both sides by 7]
Number of Rs. 5 coins = x = 20
Number of Rs. 2 coins = 3x = 3 x 20 = 60
and number of Rs.1 coins = 160 - 4x = 160 - 4 x 20
= 160 - 80 = SO
Hence, I have SO,60 and 20 coins of denomination Rs.1, Rs. 2 and Rs 5, respectively.

Let the present age of Shaloo = 5x years
Let the present age of Preeti = 4x years
After 5 years, age of Shaloo = (5x + 5) years
Age of Preeti = (4x + 5) years
According to the condition, we have
\({(5x+5)\over (4x+5)}={6\over 5}\) By cross-multiplication, we have
5(5x + 5) = 6(4x + 5) or 25x + 25 = 24x + 30
Transposing 25 to RHS and 24x to LHS, we have
25x - 24x = 30 - 25 or x = 5
\(\therefore\) 5x = 5 x 5 = 25 and 4x = 4 x 5 = 20
Therefore, present age of Shaloo = 25 years
Present age of Preeti = 20 years.

4p2 -9q2 = (2p)2 -(3q)2
This expression is of the form a2 - b2.
On comparing, we get a = 2P and b =3q
\(\therefore\) 4p2 - 9q2 = (2p +3q) (2p - 3q)
[\(\therefore\)a2 - b2 = (a +b)(a-b)]

We know that,
Discount = Marked price - Sale price
Sale price = Marked price - Discount
∵ Marked price = Rs 650 [given]
Discount = 10% of Rs 650 =\(\frac{10}{100}\times 650\)=65
∴ Sale price = Marked price - Discount = Rs (650 - 65) = Rs 585

Given mathematical statement is incorrect because here we use the wrong formula. Before applying any formula, we have to make sure whether the formula is really applicable.
Hence, correct statement is given below:
(2a + 3b)(a - b) = [(2a)(a) - (b)(2a) + (3b)(a) - (b)(3b)]
= 2a2 - 2ab + 3ab - 3b2
= 2a2 + ab -3b2
It is the multiplication of two algebraic terms.

We have, 2700
Resolving 2700 into prime factors,
we get
2700 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 5
Clearly, the prime factors of 2 and 5 do not appear in groups of three (triples).
So, 2700 is not a perfect cube.

= (1.5x\(\times\)1.5x) + (1.5x\(\times\)4y) + (1.5x\(\times\)3) - (4y\(\times\)1.5x) - (4y\(\times\)4y) - (4y\(\times\)3)-4.5x + 12y
