Find the value of the following.

  1. 26
  2. 112
  3. 54
  4. 93

Solution:

  1. 26 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 64
  2. 112 = 11 × 11 = 121
  3. 54 = 5 × 5 × 5 × 5 = 625
  4. 93 = 9 × 9 × 9 = 729

Question 4.
Express the following in e×ponential form.

  1. 6 × 6 × 6 × 6
  2. t × t
  3. 5 × 5 × 7 × 7 × 7
  4. 2 × 2 × a × a

Solution:

  1. 6 × 6 × 6 × 6 = 61+1+1+1 = 64 [Since am × an = am+n]
  2. t × t = t1+1 = t2
  3. 5 × 5 × 7 × 7 × 7 = 51+1 × 71+1+1 = 52 × 73
  4. 2 × 2 × a × a = 21+1 × a1+1 = 22 × a2 = (2a)2

 

Question 5.
E×press each of the following numbers using e×ponential form,
(i) 512
(ii) 343
(iii) 729
(iv) 3125
Solution:
(i) 512


512 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2
= 29 [Using product rule]

(ii) 343

343 = 7 × 7 × 7 = 71+1+1
= 73 [Using product rule]

(iii) 729

729 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3
= 36 [Using product rule]

(iv) 3125

3125 = 5 × 5 × 5 × 5 × 5
= 55 [Using product rule]

 

Question 6.
Identify the greater number in each of the following.
(i) 63 or 36
(ii) 53 or 35
(iii) 28 or 82
Solution:
(i) 63 or 36
63 = 6 × 6 × 6 = 36 × 6 = 216
36 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 = 729
729 > 216 gives 36 > 63
∴ 36 is greater.

(ii) 53 or 35
53 = 5 × 5 × 5 = 125
35 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 = 243
243 > 125 gives 35 > 53
∴ 35 is greater.

(iii) 28 or 82
28 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 256
82 = 8 × 8 = 64
256 > 64 gives 28 > 82
∴ 28 is greater.

 

Question 7.
Simplify the following
(i) 72 × 34
(ii) 32 × 24
(iii) 52 × 104
Solution:
(i) 72 × 34 = (7 × 7) × (3 × 3 × 3 × 3)
= 49 × 81 = 3969

(ii) 32 × 24 = (3 × 3) × (2 × 2 × 2 × 2)
= 9 × 16 = 144

(iii) 52 × 104 = (5 × 5) × (10 × 10 × 10 × 10)
= 25 × 10000 = 2,50,000

Question 8.
Find the value of the following.
(i) (-4)2
(ii) (-3) × (-2)3
(iii) (-2)3 × (-10)3
Solution:
(i) (-4)2 = (-1)2 × (4)2 [since am × bm = (a × b)m]
= 1 × 16 = 16 [since (-1)n = 1 if n is even]

(ii) (-3) × (-2)3 = (-1) × (-3) × (-1)3 × (-2)3
= (-1)4 × 24 [Grouping the terms of same base]
= 24

(iii) (-2)3 × (-10)3 = (-1)3 × (-2)3 × (-1)3 × (-10)3
= (-1)3+3 × 23 × 103 [Grouping the terms of same base]
= (-1)6 × (2 × 10)3
[∵ am × bm = (a × b)m]
= 1 × 203 [since (-1)n = 1 if n is even]
= 8000

Solution:

 

Question 10.
If a = 3 and b = 2, then find the value of the following.
(i) ab + ba
(ii) aa – bb
(iii) (a + b)b
(iv) (a – b)a
Solution:
(i) ab + ba
a = 3 and b = 2
we get 32 + 23 = (3 × 3) + (2 × 2 × 2) = 9 + 8 = 17

(ii) (aa – bb)
Substituting a = 3 and b = 2
we get 32 – 22 = (3 × 3 × 3) – (2 × 2) = 27 – 4 = 23

(iii) (a + b)b
Substituting a = 3 and b = 2
we get (3 + 2)2 = 52 = 5 × 5 = 25

(iv) (a – b)a
Substituting a = 3 and b = 2
we get (3 – 2)3 = 13 = 1 × 1 × 1 = 1
