AP State Syllabus 7th Class Maths Solutions 8th Lesson Exponents and Powers Ex 8.2
Question 1.
Simplify the following by using Laws of Exponents.
(i) 37 × 38
Answer:
37 × 38
We know am × an = am+n
37 × 38 = 37 + 8 = 315
∴ 37 × 38 =315
(ii) 92 × 90 × 93
Answer:
92 × 90 × 93
We know ap × aq × ar = p + q + r
92 × 90 × 93 = 92 + 0 + 3 = 95
∴ 92 × 90 × 93 = 95
(iii) (28)3
Answer:
(28)3
We know (am)n = amn
(28)3 = 28×3 =224
∴ (28)3 = 224
(iv) (a5)4
Answer:
(a5)4
We Know (am)n = amn
(a5)4 = a5×4 = a20
(a5)4 = a20
(v) \(\left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^{4} \times\left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^{3} \times\left(\frac{2}{5}\right)^{8}\)
Answer:
(vi) 75 ÷ 78
Answer:
75 ÷ 78
We know am = \(\frac{1}{a^{n-m}}\) (n>m)
75 ÷ 78 = \(\frac{1}{7^{8-5}}=\frac{1}{7^{3}}\)
∴ 75 ÷ 78 = \(\frac{1}{7^{3}}\)
(vii) \(\frac{(-6)^{9}}{(-6)^{5}}\)
Answer:
\(\frac{(-6)^{9}}{(-6)^{5}}\)
We Know am ÷ an = am-n(m > n)
\(\frac{(-6)^{9}}{(-6)^{5}}\) = (-6)9-5 = (-6)4
∴ \(\frac{(-6)^{9}}{(-6)^{5}}\) = (-6)4
(viii) (64 × 62) ÷ 65
Answer:
(64 × 62) ÷ 65
We know atm X a = a”
= (64+2) ÷ 65
= 66 ÷ 65
We know am ÷ an = am-n (m> n)
= 66-5 = 61 = 6
∴ (64 × 62) ÷ 65 = 6
(ix) \(\frac{5^{3}}{2^{3}}\)
Answer:
\(\frac{5^{3}}{2^{3}}\)
We know \(\frac{a^{m}}{b^{m}}=\left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^{m}\)
∴ \(\frac{5^{3}}{2^{3}}=\left(\frac{5}{2}\right)^{3}\)
(x) (-3)3 × (-3)10 × (-3)7
Answer:
(-3)3 × (-3)10 × (-3)7
we know ap . aq. ar = ap+q+r
(-3)3 × (-3)0 × (-3)7 = (-3)3+10+7
∴ (- 3)3 × (- 3)10 × (- 3)7 = (- 3)20
Question 2.
Simplify and express each of the following in Exponential form.
(i) \(\left(\frac{a^{5}}{a^{3}}\right)\) × a8
Answer:
\(\left(\frac{a^{5}}{a^{3}}\right)\) × a8
We Know \(\frac{a^{m}}{a^{n}}\) = am-n(m > n)
= (a5-3) × a8
= a2 × a8
We know am × an = am+n
= a2+8 = a10
∴ \(\left(\frac{a^{5}}{a^{3}}\right)\) × a8 = a10
(ii) 20 + 30 – 40
Answer:
20 + 30 – 40
We know a0 = 1
∴ 20 + 30 – 40 = 1
(iii) (23 × 2)2
Answer:
(23 × 2)2
We know am.an = am+n
(23 × 2)2 = (23+1)2 = (24)2
We know (am)n = am.n
= 24×2 = 28
∴(23 × 2)2 = 28
(iv) [(52)3 × 54] ÷ 57
Answer:
[(52)3 × 54] ÷ 57
We know (am) = am.n
= [52×3 × 54] ÷ 57
= [56 < 54] ÷ 57
We know am .an = am+n
= [56+4] ÷ 57
= 510 ÷ 57
We know am ÷ an = am-n (m > n)
= 510-7 = 53
∴ [(52)3 × 54] ÷ 57 = 53
Question 3.
Simplify \(\left(\frac{x^{a}}{x^{b}}\right) \times\left(\frac{x^{b}}{x^{c}}\right) \times\left(\frac{x^{c}}{x^{a}}\right)\)
Answer:
\(\left(\frac{x^{a}}{x^{b}}\right) \times\left(\frac{x^{b}}{x^{c}}\right) \times\left(\frac{x^{c}}{x^{a}}\right)\)
Question 4.
Find the value of the following.
(i) (-1)1000
Answer:
(-1)1000
(-1)1 = – 1
(-1)2 = – 1 × – 1 = + 1
(-1)3 = – 1 × -1 × -1 = – 1
(-1)4 = -1 × -1 × – 1 × – 1 = + 1
(-1)5 = -1 × -1 × -1 × -1 × -1 = -1
(-1)100 = -1 × -1 × -1 × ………… 100 times = + 1
So, (-1)odd number = -1 and
(-1)even number = + 1
Here 1000 is even number
So, (-1)1000 = + 1
(ii) (1)250
Answer:
1250 = 1 × 1 × 1 ……… 250 times = 1
∴ 1250 = 1
(iii) (1)121
Answer:
1121 = -1 × -1 × -1 ……..(121 times)
Here 121 is an odd number
So, (1)121 = – 1
(iv) (10000)0
Answer:
(10000)0
we know a0 = 1
So, (10000)0 = 1
Question 5.
If 75 × 73x = 720 then find the value of ’x’.
Answer:
Given, 75 × 73x = 720
W know am X an = am+n
75 + 3x = 720
If the bases are equal, then the powers should also be equal.
⇒ 5 + 3x = 20
⇒ 5 + 3x – 5 = 20 – 5
⇒ 3x = 15
⇒ \(\frac{3 x}{3}=\frac{15}{3}\) = 5
∴ x = 5
Question 6.
If 10y = 10000 then 5y =?
Answer:
Given, 10y = 10000
10y = 10 × 10 × 10 × 10
10y = 104
If the bases are equal, then the powers should also be equal.
⇒ y = 4
Multiply by 5 on bothsides,
5 × y = 5 × 4
∴ 5y = 20
Question 7.
If 5x = 100 then find the following values.
(i) 5x+y
Answer:
Given 5x+y = 100
5x = 102
Multiply by 52
5x × 52 = 100 × 52
5x+2 = 100 × 25 (∵ am × an = am+n)
∴ 5x+2 = 2500
(ii) 5x-2
Answer:
Given 5x = 100
5x = 102
Divide by 52 on both sides
5x ÷ 52 = 100 ÷ 52
∴ 5x-2 = 4
Question 8.
By what number should 34 be multiplied so that the product is 243?
Answer:
Given number is 34
If we multiply 34 by ‘a’ the product is 243.
i.e. 34 × a = 243
= 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3
34 × a = 35
Divide by 34 on both sides
If we multiply 34 by 3 we get 243.
Question 9.
Arushi computed (52)4 as 516 Has she done it correctly or not’? Justify your answer.
Answer:
Given, (52)4
We know) (am)n = am.n
= 52×4 = 58
∴ (52)4 = 58
But Arushi got 516 So, (52)4 ≠ 516
Therefore Arushi did wrong.
Question 10.
Is 35 × 45 equal to 1225? If not why? Justify your answer.
Answer:
Given, 35 × 45
We know am × bm = (a × b)m
So, 35 × 45 = 12 but not 125×5
= (3 × 4)5
= (12)5
35 × 45= 125
But given 35 × 45 = 1225.
So, this is wrong.
So, 35 × 45 ≠ 1225
