Question 82.


The area of a certain number of triangles is equal to the sum of the exponents of the prime factors of the number 1628, and each prime factor represents a triangle. Find the sum of areas of the triangles and find the number of the triangles. [4 MARKS]

Answer: Option A. ->
:

Prime factorization: 1 Marks
Number of Triangles: 1 Mark
Sum of the area: 1 Mark
Steps: 1 Mark
Given that,
The area of a certain number of triangles is equal to the exponents of the prime factors of the number 1628 and each prime factor represents a triangle.
Prime factors of 1628 are:
1628=22×3×7×19.
Since there are 5 prime factors, 
The number of given triangles are = 5
The area of the triangles is the sum of powers of the prime factors.
The sum of areas of the triangle = 2 + 1 + 1 + 1

= 5 square units
The number of triangles is 5 and the sum of areas of the triangle is 5 square units.


Question 83.


Find the value of 'n' if (am)2n=a2m. Find the numerical value of  a2m if a=2 and m=4.  [4 MARKS]


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. ->
:

Formula: 1 Mark
Value of n: 1 Mark
Numerical value: 1 Mark
Steps: 1 Mark
Given that,
(am)2n=a2m
a2mn=a2m         [(am)n=amn]

Since bases are same, their exponents also should be equal.
2mn=2m
n=2m2m
n=1
As per question, 
a=2 and m=4

On substituting the values, we get:
 a2m=22×4
                =28 
                =2×2×2×2×2×2×2×2
                =256
Hence, the required value is 256.


Question 84.


The value of a man's property is greater than the multiplication of cube and square of properties of A and B respectively.
What is the minimum value of his property, if the value of properties A and B are Rs 20 and Rs 400 respectively?
The actual value of his property was Rs 2,00,00,00,000 but due to recession, the value of the property decreased by 30%.
Find the present value of the property. [4 MARKS]

Answer: Option A. ->
:

Steps: 2 Marks
Minimum Value: 1 Mark
Present Value: 1 Mark
Given that,
A's property = Rs 20
cube of A's property =203
B's property = Rs 400
Square of B's property =4002

The minimum value of the man's property should be
=Rs 203×4002
=Rs 128×107
=Rs 1.28×109
Given that

The actual value of the property is Rs2,00,00,00,000.
The value of the property depreciated by 30%.
The present value of the property=20000000002000000000×30100
=2000000000600000000
=1400000000
Hence, the present value of the property is Rs 1400000000


Question 85.


Find the value of 'a' satisfying the equation.
a) (42)a=(7a)2.
b) (2a)5=24×43
[4 MARKS]


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. ->
:

Each option: 2 Marks
a) Given that,
(42)a=(7a)2  
42a=72a    [amn=amn]
Given, 42a=72a
Since 47 the only case where the above equation is true is when both the exponents are zero.
  a=0
42a=72a=1  [40=1, 70=1]
b) The given equation is
 (2a)5=24×43
2a×5=24×(22)3
 
(am)n=am×n
2a×5=24×(22×3)
2a×5=24×(26)
2a×5=24+6=210
am×an=am+n
Since their bases are same and they are equal, threfore their powers must be same,
So, 5×a=10
a=105
a=2
So, the value of a = 2.


Question 86.


Simplify:
(i)0.005×1025×101
(ii)(25)2×7383×7

[4 MARKS]


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. ->
:

Each question: 2 Marks
i) It's easy to subtract powers when we convert them into normal form.
0.005×102=0.5    (move the decimal point 2 places to the right)
5×101=0.5         (move the decimal point 1 place to the left)
Now,
0.005×1025×101
=0.50.5
=0
ii)
  (25)2×7383×7
= (25)2×7383×7
= (25×2)×73(23)3×7
= 210×7329×7
= 2109×731=2×72
= 2×49=98


Question 87.


Find the value of m and n,  if 65×52×63×5m×6n=1. [4 MARKS]


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. ->
:

Steps: 2 Marks
Application: 1 Mark
Answer: 1 Mark
65×52×63×5m×6n=1
65×63×6n×52×5m=1
65+3+n×52+m=1
62+n×52+m=1
The bases of both the numbers are not equal.
So, the value will be equal to 1, when the exponents of these bases will be equal to zero.
Any non - zero number raised to the power zero is 1.
So, the exponents of both 6 and 5 are zero.
Therefore,
2+m=0  m=2
2+n=0  n=2
m=n


Question 88.


In power notation, 81625 can be expressed as ___.


  1.     (53)4
  2.      (35)4
  3.      (3  5)4
  4.     (34)5
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. ->  (35)4
:
B and C

81=3×3×3×3=34


625=5×5×5×5=54


81625=3454=(35)4


(1)even number=+1 


Hence, (3  5)4  is also correct.


Question 89.


If a = 2 and b = 3, find the value of ab.


  1.     16
  2.     32
  3.     64
  4.     8
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 8
:
D

Putting a=2 and b=3,


we get 23=2×2×2=8.


Question 90.


Find the value of 53×23.


  1.     103
  2.     1
  3.     10
  4.     1000
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 103
:
A and D

Here the  two terms  53 and 23 have different bases, but same exponents.


53×23=(5×5×5)×(2×2×2)
=(5×2)×(5×2)×(5×2)
=(5×2)3
=103=1000
or 
53×23=(5×2)3=103=1000
