Exercise 13.2 : Solutions of Questions on Page Number : 260
Q1 : Using laws of exponents, simplify and write the answer in exponential form:
(i) 32 × 34 × 38 (ii) 615 ÷ 610 (iii) a3 × a2
(iv) 7x× 72 (v) (vi) 25 × 55
(vii) a4 × b4 (viii) (34)3
(ix)(220÷215)x23
(x) 8t÷82
Answer :
(i) 32 x 34 x 38 = (3)2 + 4 + 8 (am x an = am+n)
= 314
(ii) 615 ÷ 610 = (6)15 – 10 (am ÷ an = am-n)
= 65
(iii) a3 x a2 = a(3 + 2) (am x an = am+n)
= a5
(iv) 7x + 72 = 7x + 2 (am x an = am+n)
(v) (52)3 ÷ 53
= 52 x 3 ÷ 53 (am)n = amn
= 56 ÷ 53
= 5(6 – 3) (am ÷ an = am-n)
= 53
(vi) 25 x 55
= (2 x 5)5 [am x bm = (a x b)m]
= 105
(vii) a4 x b4
= (ab)4 [am x bm = (a x b)m]
(viii) (34)3 = 34 x 3 = 312 (am)n = amn
(ix) (220÷215) x 23
= (220 – 15) x 23 (am ÷ an = am-n)
= 25 x 23
= (25 + 3) (am x an = am+n)
= 28
(x) 8t ÷ 82 = 8(t – 2) (am ÷ an = am-n)
Q3 : Say true or false and justify your answer:
(i) 10 x 1011 = 10011 (ii) 23 > 52
(iii) 23 x 32 = 65 (iv) 30 = (1000)0
Answer :
(i) 10 x 1011 = 10011
L.H.S. = 10 x 1011 = 1011 + 1 (am x an = am+n)
= 1012
R.H.S. = 10011 = (10 x 10)11= (102)11
= 102 x 11 = 1022 (am)n = amn
As L.H.S. ≠ R.H.S.,
Therefore, the given statement is false.
(ii) 23 > 52
L.H.S. = 23 = 2 x 2 x 2 = 8
R.H.S. = 52 = 5 x 5 = 25
As 25 > 8,
Therefore, the given statement is false.
(iii) 23 x 32 = 65
L.H.S. = 23 x 32 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 72
R.H.S. = 65 = 7776
As L.H.S. ≠ R.H.S.,
Therefore, the given statement is false.
(iv) 30 = (1000)0
L.H.S. = 30 = 1
R.H.S. = (1000)0 = 1 = L.H.S.
Therefore, the given statement is true.
Q4 : Express each of the following as a product of prime factors only in exponential form:
(i) 108 x 192 (ii) 270
(iii) 729 x 64 (iv) 768
Answer :
(i) 108 x 192
= (2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3) x (2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3)
= (22 x 33) x (26 x 3)
= 26 + 2 x 33 + 1 (am x an = am+n)
= 28 x 34
(ii) 270 = 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 5 = 2 x 33 x 5
(iii) 729 x 64 = (3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3) x (2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2)
= 36 x 26
(iv) 768 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = 28 x 3
