Question
If $0<\text{y}<\text{x},$ which statement must be true?

Answer

  1. $\sqrt{\text{xy}}=\sqrt{\text{x}}\sqrt{\text{y}}$
    Solution:
    We have to find which statement must be true?
    Given $0<\text{y}<\text{x},$

    Option (a):
    Left hand side:
    $\sqrt{\text{x}}-\sqrt{\text{y}}=\sqrt{\text{x}\text{}}=\sqrt{\text{y}}$
    Right Hand side:
    $\sqrt{\text{x}-\text{y}}=\sqrt{\text{x}-\text{y}}$
    Left hand side is not equal to right hand side
    The statement is wrong.

    Option (b):
    $\sqrt{\text{x}}+\sqrt{\text{x}}=\sqrt{2\text{x}}$
    Left hand side:
    $\sqrt{\text{x}}+\sqrt{\text{x}}=2\sqrt{\text{x}}$
    Right Hand side:
    $\sqrt{2\text{x}}=\sqrt{2\text{x}}$
    Left hand side is not equal to right hand side
    The statement is wrong.

    Option (c):
    $\text{x}\sqrt{\text{y}}=\text{y}\sqrt{\text{x}}$
    Left hand side:
    $\text{x}\sqrt{\text{y}}=\text{x}\sqrt{\text{y}}$
    Right Hand side:
    $\text{y}\sqrt{\text{x}}=\text{y}\sqrt{\text{x}}$
    Left hand side is not equal to right hand side
    The statement is wrong.

    Option (d):
    $\sqrt{\text{xy}}=\sqrt{\text{x}}\sqrt{\text{y}}$
    Left hand side:
    $\sqrt{\text{xy}}=\sqrt{\text{xy}}$
    Right Hand side:
    $\sqrt{\text{x}}\sqrt{\text{y}}=\sqrt{\text{x}}\times\sqrt{\text{y}}$
    $=\sqrt{\text{xy}}$
    Left hand side is equal to right hand side
    The statement is true.
    Hence the correct choice is d.
