NCERT Solutions and Notes for Class 7 Maths Chapter 10: Algebraic Expressions (Free PDF)

In class 6 Maths, we have studied algebraic expressions including simple calculations using variables like 𝑥 and 𝒚. We also learned to solve some real-life problems using these variables and algebraic expressions. Before proceeding to solve complex problems, we must note that the central idea of solving algebraic expressions is learning to express the given problem in the correct algebraic equation. Once you determine the algebraic equation correctly, you can use mathematical operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division quite easily. Now, in NCERT Solutions of Class 7 Maths Chapter 10, we will learn to solve algebraic expressions involving squared variables. In this, we will learn to determine the factors and coefficients of a term in the given algebraic expression. Let us now have a look at the NCERT Class 7 Maths Chapter 10 Algebraic Expressions Notes and Solutions (PDF).

Top 10 Short Maths Tricks for Comple𝑥 Problems

Topic 1: Terms of an Expression 

Such parts of an expression that are formed separately first and then added are known as terms. 

For example, in the expression (4𝑥² – 3𝑥y), 4𝑥² and -3𝑥y are the terms of the given expression.

Topic 2: Factors of a Term

A term is a product of its factors. In the above example, the factors of the term 4𝑥² are 4, 𝑥 and 𝑥. 

Topic 3: Coefficients 

The numerical factor is said to be the numerical coefficient or simply the coefficient of the term. It is also said to be the coefficient of the rest of the term. In the above example, the coefficient of the term 4𝑥² is 4 and of -3𝑥y is -3.

Topic 4: Monomials, Binomials, Trinomials and Polynomials

• Monomials: An expression with only one term is called a monomial; for example, 7𝑥y, – 5m, 3z², 4 etc.
• Binomials: An expression that contains two unlike terms is called a binomial; for example, 𝑥 + y, m – 5, mn + 4m, a² – b² are binomials. 
• Trinomials: An expression that contains three terms is called a trinomial; for example, the expressions 𝑥 + y + 7, ab + a +b, 3𝑥² – 5𝑥 + 2, m + n + 10 are trinomials.
• Polynomials: In general, an expression with one or more terms is called a polynomial. Thus, a monomial, a binomial and a trinomial are all polynomials.

E𝑥ercise 10.2 Solutions

Q 1. If m = 2, find the value of:

1. 3m² – 2m – 7
2. 9 – 5m
3. 3m – 5
4. m – 2

Solutions. Putting m = 2, the solutions of each of the given expressions can be determined. The solutions are given below.

1. Given: 3m² – 2m – 7

Putting m = 2 we get:

⇒ 3(2)² – 2(2) – 7 

⇒ 3 × 4 – 4 – 7 = 12 – 11 = 1

∴ the value of the given expression by putting m = 2 comes out to be 1. 

2. Given: 9 – 5m

Putting m = 2 we get:

⇒ 9 – 5(2) 

⇒ 9 – 10 = -1

∴ the value of the given expression by putting m = 2 comes out to be -1.

3. Given: 3m – 5

Putting m = 2 we get:

⇒ 3(2) – 5 

⇒ 6 – 5 = 1

∴ the value of the given expression by putting m = 2 comes out to be 1.

4. Given: m – 2

Putting m = 2 we get:

⇒ 2 -2 

⇒ 0

∴ the value of the given expression by putting m = 2 comes out to be 0.

Q 2. If p = – 2, find the value of – 2p³ – 3p² + 4p + 7.

Solutions: Given: – 2p³ – 3p² + 4p + 7

Putting p = -2 we get:

⇒ – 2(-2)³ – 3(-2)² + 4(-2) + 7

⇒ (-2 × -8) – (3 × 4) + (4 × -2) + 7

⇒ 16 – 12 – 8 + 7 = 3

∴ the value of the given expression by putting p = -2 comes out to be 3.

Q 3. Simplify the expressions and find the value if x is equal to 2.

1. 𝑥 + 7 + 4 (𝑥 – 5)
2. 4(2𝑥 – 1) + 3𝑥 + 11

Solutions: The solutions are given below.

1. The given expression can be simplified by putting the terms with alike algebraic factors together. Hence, the given expression can be simplified as:

⇒ 𝑥 + 7 + (4 × 𝑥) – (4 × 5)

⇒ 𝑥 + 7 + 4𝑥 – 20

⇒ 5𝑥 -13

Now, putting 𝑥 = 2, we get: 

⇒ 5(2) – 13 

= 10 – 13 = -3

∴ the value of the given expression by putting 𝑥 = 2 comes out to be -3.

2. The given expression can be simplified by putting the terms with alike algebraic factors together. Hence, the given expression can be simplified as:

⇒ (4 × 2𝑥) – (4 × 1) + 3𝑥 + 11

⇒ 8𝑥 – 4 + 3𝑥 + 11

⇒ 11𝑥 + 7

Now, putting 𝑥 = 2, we get: 

⇒ 11(2) + 7 

= 22 + 7 = 29

∴ the value of the given expression by putting 𝑥 = 2 comes out to be 29.
