If $\frac{\text{x}}{\text{x}^{1.5}}=8\text{x}^{-1}$ then x =
A
$\frac{\sqrt{2}}{4}$
B
$\sqrt[2]{2}$
C
$4$
D
$64$
✓
Answer
$64$ Solution: For $\frac{\text{x}}{\text{x}^{1.5}}=8\text{x}^{-1}$ we have to find the value of x. So, $\frac{\text{x}^1}{\text{x}^{1.5}}=8\text{x}^{-1}$ $\text{x}^{1-1.5}8\text{x}^{-1}$ $\text{x}^{-0.5}=2^3\text{x}^{-1}$ $\frac{\text{x}^{0.5}}{\text{x}^{-1}}=2^3$ $\frac{\text{x}^{-\frac{5}{10}}}{\text{x}^{-1}}=2^3$ $\text{x}^{-\frac{1}{2}+1}=2^3$ $\text{x}^{\frac{1}{2}+\frac{2}{2}}=2^3$ $\text{x}^{\frac{-1+2}{2}}=2^3$ $\text{x}^{\frac{1}{2}}=2^3$ By raising both sides to the power 2 we get $\text{x}^{\frac{1}{2}\times2}=2^{3\times2}$ $\text{x}^{\frac{1}{2}\times2}=2^6$ $\text{x}^1=64$ The value of x is 64 Hence the correct alternative is d.
