Question 511 Mark
If $\Big(\frac{2}{3}\Big)^{\text{x}}\Big(\frac{3}{2}\Big)^\text{2x}=\frac{81}{16}$ then x = ?
  1. 1
  2. 2
  3. 3
  4. 4
Answer
  1. 4

Solution:

$\Big(\frac{2}{3}\Big)^{\text{x}}\Big(\frac{3}{2}\Big)^\text{2x}=\frac{81}{16}$

$\Rightarrow\Big(\frac{3}{2}\Big)^{-\text{x}}\Big(\frac{3}{2}\Big)^\text{2x}=\frac{3^4}{2^4}$

$\Rightarrow\Big(\frac{3}{2}\Big)^{-\text{x}+2\text{x}}=\Big(\frac{3}{2}\Big)^4$

$\Rightarrow\Big(\frac{3}{2}\Big)^{\text{x}}=\Big(\frac{3}{2}\Big)^4$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}=4$

Hence, the correct option is (d).

Question 701 Mark
If $\text{x}=3+\sqrt{8}$ then $\Big(\text{x}^2+\frac{1}{\text{x}^2}\Big)=?$
  1. 34
  2. 56
  3. 28
  4. 63
Answer
  1. 34

Solution:

$\text{x}=3+\sqrt{8}$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}^2=\big(3+\sqrt{8}\big)^2=9+8+6\sqrt{8}=17+6\sqrt{8}$

Now, $\frac{1}{\text{x}}=\frac{1}{3+\sqrt{8}}$

$=\frac{1}{3+\sqrt{8}}\times\frac{3-\sqrt{8}}{3-\sqrt{8}}$

$=\frac{3-\sqrt{8}}{3^2-\big(\sqrt{8}\big)^2}$

$=\frac{3-\sqrt{8}}{9-8}$

$=3-\sqrt{8}$

$\Rightarrow\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}\Big)^2=\big(3-\sqrt{8}\big)^2=9+8-6\sqrt{8}=17-6\sqrt{8}$

Then, $\Big(\text{x}^2+\frac{1}{\text{x}^2}\Big)=17+6\sqrt{8}+17-6\sqrt{8}=34$

Hence, the correct option is (a).

  4. $4\sqrt{2}$
Answer
  1. $2$

Solution:

$\sqrt[3]{2}\times\sqrt[4]{2}\times\sqrt[12]{32}$

$=\sqrt[3]{2}\times\sqrt[4]{2}\times\sqrt[12]{2^5}$

$=2^\frac{1}{3}\times2^\frac{1}{4}\times2^{5\times\frac{1}{12}}$

$=2^{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{5}{12}}$

$=2^{\frac{4+3+5}{12}}$

$=2^{\frac{12}{12}}$

$=2$

Hence, the correct option is (a).

Question 721 Mark
Which of the following is a true statment?
  1. $\pi$ and $\frac{22}{7}$ are both rationals.
  2. $\pi$ and $\frac{22}{7}$ are both irrationals
  3. $\pi$ is rational and $\frac{22}{7}$ is irrational.
  4. $\pi$ is irrational and $\frac{22}{7}$ is rational.
Answer
  1. $\pi$ is irrational and $\frac{22}{7}$ is rational.

Solution:

A number which can neither be expressed as a terminating decimal nor as a repeating decimal is called an irrational number.

So, $\pi=3.141592...$ is irrational.

The numbers of the form $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}},$ where p and q are integers and $\text{q}\neq0,$ are known as rational numbers.

So, $\frac{22}{7}$ is rational.

Hence, the correct option is (d).
