Question 1631 Mark
When simplified $\big(\text{x}^{-1}+\text{y}^{-1}\big)^{-1}$ is equal to:
Answer
  1. $\frac{\text{xy}}{\text{x}+\text{y}}$
    Solution:
    We have to simplify $\big(\text{x}^{-1}+\text{y}^{-1}\big)^{-1}$
    So,
    $\big(\text{x}^{-1}+\text{y}^{-1}\big)^{-1}=\Big(\frac{1}{\text{x}}+\frac{1}{\text{y}}\Big)^{-1}$
    $=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{\text{x}}+\frac{1}{\text{y}}}$
    $=\frac{1}{\frac{1\times\text{y}}{\text{x}\times\text{y}}+\frac{1\times\text{x}}{\text{y}\times\text{x}}}$
    $=\frac{1}{\frac{\text{y}}{\text{xy}}+\frac{\text{x}}{\text{xy}}}$
    $\big(\text{x}^{-1}+\text{y}^{-1}\big)^{-1}=\frac{1}{\frac{\text{y}+\text{x}}{\text{xy}}}$
    $=\frac{\text{xy}}{\text{y}+\text{x}}$
    The value of $\big(\text{x}^{-1}+\text{y}^{-1}\big)^{-1}$ is $\frac{\text{xy}}{\text{y}+\text{x}}$
    Hence the correct choice is c.

Question 1641 Mark
If a, b, c are positive real numbers, then $\sqrt{\text{a}^{-1}\text{b}}\times\sqrt{\text{b}^{-1}\text{c}}\times\sqrt{\text{c}^{-1}\text{a}}$ is equal to
Answer
  1. $1$
    Solution:
    We have to find the value of $\sqrt{\text{a}^{-1}\text{b}}\times\sqrt{\text{b}^{-1}\text{c}}\times\sqrt{\text{c}^{-1}\text{a}}$ when a, b, c are positive real numbers.
    So,
    $\sqrt{\text{a}^{-1}\text{b}}\times\sqrt{\text{b}^{-1}\text{c}}\times\sqrt{\text{c}^{-1}\text{a}}$
    $=\sqrt{\frac{1}{\text{a}}\times\text{b}}\times\sqrt{\frac{1}{\text{b}}\times\text{c}}\times\sqrt{\frac{1}{\text{c}}\times}\text{a}$
    $=\sqrt{\frac{\text{b}}{\text{a}}}\times\sqrt{\frac{\text{c}}{\text{b}}}\times\sqrt{\frac{\text{a}}{\text{c}}}$
    Taking square root as common we get
    $\sqrt{\text{a}^{-1}\text{b}}\times\sqrt{\text{b}^{-1}\text{c}}\times\sqrt{\text{c}^{-1}\text{a}}=\sqrt{\frac{\text{b}}{\text{a}}\times\frac{\text{c}}{\text{b}}\times\frac{\text{a}}{\text{c}}}$
    $\sqrt{\text{a}^{-1}\text{b}}\times\sqrt{\text{b}^{-1}\text{c}}\times\sqrt{\text{c}^{-1}\text{a}}=1$
    Hence the correct alternative is a.

Question 1651 Mark
If $4\text{x}-4\text{x}^{-1}=24,$ then $(2x)^x$ equals:
Answer
We have to find the value of $(2\text{x})^\text{x}$ if $4\text{x}-4^{\text{x}-1}=24$
So,
Taking $4x$ as common factor we get
$4\text{x}(1-4^{-1})=24$
$4\text{x}\Big(1-\frac{1}{4}\Big)=24$
$4\text{x}\Big(\frac{1\times4}{1\times4}-\frac{1}{4}\Big)=24$
$4^4\Big(\frac{4-1}{4}\Big)=24$
$4^\text{x}\times\frac{3}{4}=24$
$4^\text{x}=24\times\frac{4}{3}$
$4^\text{x}=32$
$2^{2\text{x}}=2^{5}$
By equating powers of exponents we get
$2\text{x}=5$
$\text{x}=\frac{5}{2}$
By substituting $\text{x}=\frac{5}{2}$ in $(2\text{x})^\text{x}$ we get
$(2\text{x})^\text{x}=\Big(2\times\frac{5}{2}\Big)^{\frac{5}{2}}$
$=\Big(2\times\frac{5}{2}\Big)^{\frac{5}{2}}$
$=5^{\frac{5}{2}}$
$=5^{5\times\frac{1}{2}}$
$(2\text{x})^\text{x}=\sqrt[2]{5^5}$
$=\sqrt[2]{5\times5\times5\times5}$
$=5\times5\times^\sqrt[2]{5}$
$=25\sqrt{5}$

The value of m for which $\Bigg[\bigg\{\Big(\frac{1}{7^2}\Big)^{-2}\bigg\}^{-\frac{1}{3}}\Bigg]^{\frac{1}{4}}=7^{\text{m}},$ is:
Answer
  1. $-\frac{1}{3}$
    Solution:
    We have to find the value of m for $\Bigg[\bigg\{\Big(\frac{1}{7^2}\Big)^{-2}\bigg\}^{-\frac{1}{3}}\Bigg]^{\frac{1}{4}}=7^{\text{m}},$
    $\Rightarrow\bigg[\Big\{\frac{1}{7^{2\times-2}}^{-2}\Big\}^{-\frac{1}{3}}\bigg]^{\frac{1}{4}}=7^{\text{m}}$
    $\Rightarrow\bigg[\Big\{\frac{1}{7^{-4}}\Big\}^{-\frac{1}{3}}\bigg]^{\frac{1}{4}}=7^{\text{m}}$
    $\Rightarrow\Bigg[\bigg\{\frac{1}{7^{-4\times\frac{-1}{3}}}\bigg\}^{-\frac{1}{3}}\Bigg]^{\frac{1}{4}}=7^{\text{m}}$
    $\Rightarrow\Bigg[\bigg\{\frac{1}{7^{\frac{4}{3}}}\bigg\}\Bigg]^{\frac{1}{4}}=7^{\text{m}}$
    $\Rightarrow\Bigg[\frac{1}{7^{\frac{4}{3}\times\frac{1}{4}}}\Bigg]=7^{\text{m}}$
    $\Rightarrow\Bigg[\frac{1}{7^{\frac{1}{3}}}\Bigg]=7^{\text{m}}$
    By using rational exponents $\frac{1}{\text{a}^{\text{n}}}=\text{a}^{-\text{n}}$
    $7^{\frac{-1}{3}}=7^{\text{m}}$
    Equating power of exponents we get $-\frac{1}{3}=\text{m}$
    Hence the correct choice is a.

Answer
  1. $\text{a}$
    Solution:
    Find the value of $\big\{\sqrt[\text{m}]{\sqrt[\text{n}]{\text{a}}}\big\}^{\text{mn}}.$
    So,
    $\big\{\sqrt[\text{m}]{\sqrt[\text{n}]{\text{a}}}\big\}^{\text{mn}}=\bigg\{\sqrt[\text{m}]{\text{a}^{\frac{1}{\text{n}}}}\bigg\}^{\text{mn}}$
    $=\bigg\{\text{a}^{\frac{1}{\text{n}}\times\frac{1}{\text{m}}}\bigg\}^{\text{mn}}$
    $=\bigg\{\text{a}^{\frac{1}{\text{n}}\times\frac{1}{\text{m}}}\times\text{m}\times\text{n}\bigg\}$
    $\Rightarrow\big\{\sqrt[\text{m}]{\sqrt[\text{n}]{\text{a}}}\big\}=\bigg\{\text{a}^{\frac{1}{\text{n}}\times\frac{1}{\text{m}}}\times\text{m}\times\text{n}\bigg\}$
    $\Rightarrow\big\{\sqrt[\text{m}]{\sqrt[\text{n}]{\text{a}}}\big\}=\text{a}$
    Hence the correct choice is b.

Answer
  1. 400
    Solution:
    We have to find the value of $\Big\{\big(23+2^2\big)^{\frac{2}{3}}+\big(140-19\big)^{\frac{1}{2}}\Big\}^2,$
    $\Big\{\big(23+2^2\big)^{\frac{2}{3}}+\big(140-19\big)^{\frac{1}{2}}\Big\}^2$
    $=\Big\{\big(23+4\big)^{\frac{2}{3}}+\big(121\big)^{\frac{1}{2}}\Big\}^2$
    $=\Big\{\big(27\big)^{\frac{2}{3}}+\big(121\big)^{\frac{1}{2}}\Big\}^2$
    $=\Big\{\big(3^3\big)^{\frac{2}{3}}+\big(11^2\big)^{\frac{1}{2}}\Big\}^2$
    $\Big\{\big(23+2^2\big)^{\frac{2}{3}}+\big(140-19\big)^{\frac{1}{2}}\Big\}^2\\=\Big\{3^{3\times\frac{2}{3}}+11^{2\times\frac{2}{3}}\Big\}$
    $=\big\{3^2+11\big\}^2$
    $\Rightarrow\Big\{\big(23+2^2\big)^{\frac{2}{3}}+\big(140-19\big)^{\frac{1}{2}}\Big\}^2=\{9+11\}^2$
    By using the identity $(\text{a}+\text{b})^2=\text{a}^\text{2}+2\text{ab}+\text{b}^2$ we get,
    $=9\times9+2\times9\times11+11\times11$
    $=81+198+121$
    $=400$
    Hence correct choice is d.

Question 1691 Mark
If n is a natural number, then $\sqrt{\text{n}}$ is:
Answer
  1. sometimes a natural number and sometimes an irrational number.
    Solution:
  1. Is incorrect, because $\sqrt{\text{n}}$ can not be always a natural number
    i.e. if $\text{n}=2, \ \sqrt{\text{n}}=\sqrt{2}$ (not a natural no.)
  1. Is incorrect, similiarly, if n = 2, 5, …. Or any odd no. or not perfect square, $\sqrt{\text{n}}=\sqrt{2},\sqrt{5},\sqrt{7}$ are Non-terminating and non-repeating, So irrational in nature, So, not always a rational number.
  2. Is also incorrect, $\sqrt{\text{n}}$ can aslo be rational or say a natural number. If n = 4, 9, 16... or any perfect square number then $\sqrt{\text{n}}=2,3,4...$ natural numbers.
  3. Is fully correct because if n is any odd number or non-perfect square number then $\sqrt{\text{n}}$ would be irrational, but if n is a perfect square number $\sqrt{\text{n}}$ then will be a natural number.
    If n = 2, 3, 5, 8 ... $\sqrt{\text{n}}=\sqrt{2},\sqrt{3},\sqrt{8}...$ (irrational)
    If n = 4, 9, 16 ... = 2, 3, 4 ... (Natural number)
    So, correct option is (d).

Two rational numbers between $\frac{2}{3}$ and $\frac{5}{3}$ are :
Answer
  1. $\frac{5}{6}$ and $\frac{7}{6}$
    Solution:
    We have,
    $\frac{2}{3}=\frac{2\times2}{3\times2}=\frac{4}{6}$ and $\frac{5}{3}=\frac{5\times2}{3\times2}=\frac{10}{6}$
    And, $\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1\times3}{2\times3}=\frac{3}{6}$ and $\frac{2}{1}=\frac{2\times6}{1\times6}=\frac{12}{6}$
    Also, $\frac{2}{3}=\frac{2\times2}{3\times2}=\frac{4}{6}$ and $\frac{4}{3}=\frac{4\times2}{3\times2}=\frac{8}{6}$
    Since, $\frac{1}{6}<\frac{2}{6}<\frac{3}{6}\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)<\frac{4}{6}\Big(=\frac{2}{3}\Big)<\frac{5}{6}<\frac{7}{6}\\<\frac{8}{6}\Big(=\frac{4}{3}\Big)<\frac{10}{6}\Big(=\frac{5}{3}\Big)<\frac{12}{6}\Big(=\frac{2}{1}\Big)$
    So, the two rational numbers between $\frac{2}{3}$ and $\frac{5}{3}$ are $\frac{5}{6}$ and $\frac{7}{6}.$
    Hence, the correct opion is (c).

Which one of the following is not equal to $\Big(\frac{100}{9}\Big)^{-\frac{3}{2}}?$
Answer
  1. $\sqrt{\frac{100}{9}}\times\sqrt{\frac{100}{9}}\times\sqrt{\frac{100}{9}}$
    Solution:
    We have to find the value of $\Big(\frac{100}{9}\Big)^{-\frac{3}{2}}$
    So,
    $\Big(\frac{100}{9}\Big)^{-\frac{3}{2}}=\Big(\frac{10^2}{3^2}\Big)^{-\frac{3}{2}}$
    $=\frac{10^{2\times\frac{3}{2}}}{3^{2\times\frac{3}{2}}}$
    $=\frac{10^{-3}}{3^{-3}}$
    $\Big(\frac{100}{9}\Big)^{-\frac{3}{2}}=\frac{\frac{1}{10^3}}{\frac{1}{3^3}}$
    $=\frac{1}{10\times10\times10}\times\frac{3\times3\times3}{1}$
    $=\frac{3\times3\times3}{10\times10\times10}$
    Since, $\Big(\frac{100}{9}\Big)^{-\frac{3}{2}}$ is equal to $\Big(\frac{100}{9}\Big)^{\frac{3}{2}},\ \frac{1}{\Big(\frac{100}{9}\Big)^{\frac{3}{2}}},\ \frac{3\times3\times3}{10\times10\times10}.$

Question 1861 Mark
If $(2^3)^2 = 4^x,$ then $3^x =$
Answer
We have to find the value of $3^x$ provided $(2^3)^2 = 4^x$
So,
$2^{3\times 2} = 2^{2x}$
$2^6= 2^{2x}$
By equating the exponents we get
$6 = 2x$
$\frac{6}{2}=\text{x}$
$3 = x$
By substituting in $3^x $ we get
$3^x = 3^3$
$= 27$
The value of $3^x$ is $27$

Which of the following is rational?
Answer
d. $\frac{0}{4}$
Solution:
  1. $\sqrt{3}=1.732 \ ...=$ Non-terminating and non-repeating number, hence irrational
  1. $\pi=3.14 \ ...$ also can not be terminated to $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}$ form, and is non-terminating and non-repeating in nature. Hence, irrational.
  1. $\frac{4}{0}$ is not a rational number because this is in the form $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}$ where p and q are integers but q = 0
  1. $\frac{0}{4}$ follows the defination of rational number.

    Hence, correct option is (d).

Question 1981 Mark
If x = 2 and y = 4, then $\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\Big)^{\text{x}-\text{y}}+\Big(\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}\Big)^{\text{y}-\text{x}}=$
Answer
  1. 8
    Solution:
    We have to find the value of $\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\Big)^{\text{x}-\text{y}}+\Big(\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}\Big)^{\text{y}-\text{x}}$ if x = 2, y = 4
    Substitute x = 2, y = 4, in $\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\Big)^{\text{x}-\text{y}}+\Big(\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}\Big)^{\text{y}-\text{x}}$ to get,
    $\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\Big)^{\text{x}-\text{y}}+\Big(\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}\Big)^{\text{y}-\text{x}}$
    $=\Big(\frac{2}{4}\Big)^{2-4}+\Big(\frac{4}{2}\Big)^{4-2}$
    $=\Big(\frac{2}{4}\Big)^{-2}+\Big(\frac{4}{2}\Big)^{2}$
    $=\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)^{-2}+(2)^2$
    $=\Big(\frac{1}{2^{-2}}\Big)+4$
    $\Big(\frac{\text{x}}{\text{y}}\Big)^{\text{x}-\text{y}}+\Big(\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}\Big)^{\text{y}-\text{x}}$
    $=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{2^2}}+4$
    $=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{4}}+4$
    $=1\times\frac{4}{1}+4$
    $=4+4$
    $=8$
    Hence the correct choice is b.
