Question 6

In a stck there are 5 books each of thickness 20mm and 5 paper sheets of thickness 0.016mm. What is the total thickness of the stack? (1mm = 0.001m) [3 MARKS]

SOLUTION

Solution :

Steps: 1 Mark
Application: 1 Mark
Answer: 1 Mark

Thickness of each book =20mm

Hence, thickness of 5 books =5×20=100mm

Thickness of each paper sheet =0.016mm

Hence, thickness of 5 paper sheets =5×0.016=0.080mm

Total thickness of the stack

= Thickness of 5 books + Thickness of 5 paper sheets

=(100+0.080)mm

=100.08mm

=1.0008×102mm

Question 10

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]

SOLUTION

Solution :

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 11

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

SOLUTION

Solution :

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 12

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]

SOLUTION

Solution :

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 13

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

SOLUTION

Solution :

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 14

Simplify:

(i)0.005×1025×101

(ii)(25)2×7383×7


[4 MARKS]

SOLUTION

Solution :

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 15

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

SOLUTION

Solution :

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
