Question 1.

iv. (52)³ = (50 + 3)³
Here, a = 50 and b = 2
(52)³ = (50)³ + 3(50)² (2) + 3(50)(2)² + (2)³
…[∵ (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³]
= 125000 + 3(2500)(2) + 3(50)(4) + 8
= 125000 + 15000 + 600 + 8
=140608

v. (101)³ = (100 + 1)³
Here, a = 100 and b = 1
(101)³
= (100)³ + 3(100)²(1) + 3(100)(1)² + (1)³
…[∵ (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³]
= 1000000 + 3(10000) + 3(100) (1) + 1
= 1000000 + 30000 + 300 + 1
= 1030301

vi. Here, a = x and b = 1/x

vii. Here, a = 2m and b = 1/5

viii. Here, a = 5x/y and b = y/5x
