\end{aligned}

  • 7776
  • 7782
  • 1296
  • 1290

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
6^{m-2}\\ = \dfrac{6^m}{6^2}\\ = \dfrac{46656}{6^2}\\ = \dfrac{46656}{36} = 1296
\end{aligned}

2. Find the value of,
\begin{aligned}
\frac{1}{216^{-\frac{2}{3}}}+\frac{1}{256^{-\frac{3}{4}}}+\frac{1}{32^{-\frac{1}{5}}}
\end{aligned}

  • 100
  • 101
  • 102
  • 103

Answer: Option C

3. \begin{align}
\left(\dfrac{a}{b}\right)^{x-2} = \left(\dfrac{b}{a}\right)^{x-7}.\\\text{ What is the value of x ?}
\end{align}

  • 1.5
  • 4.5
  • 7.5
  • 9.5

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

\begin{align}&\left(\dfrac{a}{b}\right)^{x-2} = \left(\dfrac{b}{a}\right)^{x-7}\\\\
&\Rightarrow \left(\dfrac{a}{b}\right)^{x-2} = \left(\dfrac{a}{b}\right)^{-(x-7)}\\\\
&\Rightarrow x - 2 = -(x - 7)\\\\
&\Rightarrow x - 2 = -x + 7\\\\
&\Rightarrow x-2 = -x + 7\\\\
&\Rightarrow 2x = 9\\\\
&\Rightarrow x = \dfrac{9}{2} = 4.5
\end{align}

4. \begin{aligned}
\text{If }x = \left(8 + 3\sqrt{7}\right),\text{ what is the value of }\\\left(\sqrt{x} - \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{x}}\right)?
\end{aligned}

  • \begin{aligned} \sqrt{13} \end{aligned}
  • \begin{aligned} \sqrt{14} \end{aligned}
  • \begin{aligned} \sqrt{15} \end{aligned}
  • \begin{aligned} \sqrt{16} \end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

\begin{align}&\left(\sqrt{x} - \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{x}}\right)^2\\\\
&= x - 2 + \dfrac{1}{x}\\\\
&= x + \dfrac{1}{x} - 2 \\\\
&= \left(8 + 3\sqrt{7}\right) + \dfrac{1}{\left(8 + 3\sqrt{7}\right)} - 2 \\\\
&= \left(8 + 3\sqrt{7}\right) + \dfrac{\left(8 - 3\sqrt{7}\right)}{\left(8 + 3\sqrt{7}\right)\left(8 - 3\sqrt{7}\right)} - 2 \\\\
&= \left(8 + 3\sqrt{7}\right) + \dfrac{\left(8 - 3\sqrt{7}\right)}{8^2 - \left(3\sqrt{7}\right)^2} - 2 \\\\
&= \left(8 + 3\sqrt{7}\right) + \dfrac{\left(8 - 3\sqrt{7}\right)}{64 - 63} - 2 \\\\
&= \left(8 + 3\sqrt{7}\right) + \dfrac{\left(8 - 3\sqrt{7}\right)}{1} - 2 \\\\
&= 8 + 3\sqrt{7} + 8 - 3\sqrt{7} - 2 \\\\
&= 14 \\\\
&\text{as }\left(\sqrt{x} - \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{x}}\right)^2 = 14\\\\
&\text{so ,}\left(\sqrt{x} - \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{x}}\right) = \sqrt{14}\end{align}

5. \begin{aligned} (1000)^7 \div (10)^{18} = ? \end{aligned}

  • 10
  • 100
  • 1000
  • 10000

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
= \frac{(10^3)^7}{(10)^{18}}
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
= \frac{(10)^{21}}{(10)^{18}} = 10^3 = 1000
\end{aligned}

    I would like to express some aiipecratpon to the writer just for rescuing me from this particular matter. Because of checking through the search engines and getting methods which are not helpful, I thought my entire life was over. Being alive devoid of the answers to the problems you have resolved as a result of your main guide is a critical case, and the ones that might have in a wrong way affected my entire career if I hadn't discovered your site. Your own personal expertise and kindness in touching the whole lot was priceless. I am not sure what I would have done if I had not discovered such a subject like this. I am able to now relish my future. Thanks a lot very much for your skilled and sensible help. I won't think twice to suggest the blog to any person who desires counselling about this area.
