The value of (4- 20) x 5is
  • a)
    1
  • b)
    0
  • c)
    10
  • d)
    -10
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Sreemoyee Nair answered
Anything raised to the power zero is 1 .
In the given expression,  (4- 20) x 50
                                             = (1 - 1) x 1
                                      = ( 0 ) x 1
                                      = 0
So Option B is correct answer. 

The value of (−1)500 is
  • a)
    1
  • b)
    -1
  • c)
    0
  • d)
    None of these

Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

If any power having a even number is raised to -1 then the  result will be 1
Since the power is an even number , So (−1)500 =  1 

The value of (−1)47 is
  • a)
    -1
  • b)
    1
  • c)
    0
  • d)
    None of these
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Nitin Patel answered
If any power having a odd number is raised to -1 then result will be -1
So (−1)47 = -1
So option A is correct answer.

    1
  • b)
    5
  • c)
    2
  • d)
    0
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Shalini Menon answered
Exponents, or powers, are a way of indicating that a quantity is to be multiplied by itself some number of times. In the expression 252 is called the base and 5 is called the exponent, or power.

Express 2048 as a power 2.
  • a)
    28
  • b)
    211
  • c)
    210
  • d)
    29
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Abhiram Chavan answered
 2048 = 2 x 1024
= 2 x 2 x 512
= 2 x 2 x 2 x 256
= 2 x 2 x 2 x 2x 128
= 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 64
= 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 32
= 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 16
= 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 8
= 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2
= 211
So option B is the correct answer. 

The value of (−1)55 is
  • a)
    1
  • b)
    -1
  • c)
    0
  • d)
    None of these
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

If any power having a odd number is raised to -1 then result will be -1
So (−1)55 = -1
So option B is correct answer. 

The multiplicative inverse of 7-2 is:
  • a)
    7
  • b)
    7
  • c)
    1/72
  • d)
    1/7
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Shounak Desai answered
Understanding the Problem
The question asks for the multiplicative inverse of the expression \(7 - 2\). To find the multiplicative inverse, we first need to simplify the expression.
Step 1: Simplify the Expression
- Calculate \(7 - 2\):
- \(7 - 2 = 5\)
Now, we have the simplified expression as 5.
Step 2: Find the Multiplicative Inverse
- The multiplicative inverse of a number \(x\) is defined as \(\frac{1}{x}\).
- For the number 5, the multiplicative inverse is:
- \(\frac{1}{5}\)
Analyzing the Options
The options provided are:
- a) 72
- b) 7
- c) \(\frac{1}{72}\)
- d) \(\frac{1}{7}\)
None of these options represent the multiplicative inverse of 5, which is \(\frac{1}{5}\).
Correct Answer Evaluation
It seems there is a misunderstanding regarding the correct answer being option 'A' (72). The multiplicative inverse of 5 is not any of the choices listed, including 72.
Conclusion
To clarify:
- The multiplicative inverse of \(7 - 2\) (which equals 5) is \(\frac{1}{5}\).
- The correct answer should be based on the definition of the multiplicative inverse, which does not match any of the provided options.
Thus, the analysis shows the correct answer is not option 'A', but rather \(\frac{1}{5}\), which is not listed among the options.

(2/7)2 x (2/7)4 is equal to:
  • a)
    (4/7)8
  • b)
    (2/7)2
  • c)
    ( 2/7)6
  • d)
    (4/14)6
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Gopal Kumar answered
Whenever you multiply two terms with the same base, you can add the exponents:
( x m ) ( x n ) = x( m + n )
So 
(2/7)2 x (2/7)4  = (2/7)6
So option C is the correct answer. 

If (5/3)−5 × (5/3)11 = (5/3)8+x, then x = ?
  • a)
    −1/2
  • b)
    −2
  • c)
    2
  • d)
    1/2
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

(5/3)−5 × (5/3)11 = (5/3)8+x
⇒ (5/3)−5+11=(53)8+x ⇒ (5/3)6 = (5/3)8+
On comparing, we get, 
8+x = 6 ⇒x = −2

The value of 
  • a)
    26×316×512
  • b)
    317×516×75
  • c)
    26×516×712
  • d)
    27×317×75
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Correct Answer :- b
Explanation :  [(2*3)12 * (5*7)28 * (5*3)16]/[(7*2)12 * (7*3)11 * 528]
= [(2)12 * (3)12 * (5)28 * (7)28 * (5)16 * (3)16]/[(7)12 * (2)12 * (7)11 * (3)11 * (5)28]
= [(2)12 * (3)12+16 * (5)28+16 * 316]/[(7)12+11 * (2)12 * (3)11 * (5)28]
= [(2)12 * (3)28 * (5)44 * 316]/[(7)23 * (2)12 * (3)11 * (5)28]
= 317 * 516 * 75

If  a = 3 and b = 4 then find the value of aa + bb
  • a)
    283
  • b)
    270
  • c)
    276
  • d)
    267
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Gopal Kumar answered
Given, a = 3 and b = 4 
aa + b= 33 + 4= 3 x 3 x 3 + 4 x 4 x 4 x 4
                            = 27 + 16 x 16 
                            = 27 + 256
                            = 283
So option A is the correct answer. 
 

There are three places A, B, C in a straight line as shown below. If distance between place A and B is (2.4×106)m and distance between 8 and C is (5.2×105)m, then find the distance between place A and C in standard form. 
  • a)
    (292×106)km
  • b)
    (2.92×106)km
  • c)
    (292×105)km
  • d)
    (2.92×104)m
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Distance between place A and B 
= 2.4×106m = 2400000 m
Distance between place 6 and C = 5.2×105 m = 5.2×100000 m = 520000 m
Distance between place A and C 
= (2.4×10+ 5.2×105)m = (2400000 + 520000)m = 292×104m
Standard form of 292×104m = 2.92×106
