Answer:

(i) 52n × 53 = 59
     52n+3 = 59          [since an × am = am+n]

     On equating the coefficients:
     2n + 3 = 9
     ⇒ 2n = 9 − 3
     ⇒ 2n = 6
     ∴ n =62=3

(ii) 8 × 2n+2 = 32
     ⇒ (2)3 × 2n+2 = (2)5      [since 23 = 8 and 25 = 32]
     ⇒ (2)3+ (n+2) = (2)5 
     On equating the coefficients:
      3 + n + 2 = 5
      ⇒ n + 5 = 5
      ⇒ n = 5 − 5
      ∴ n = 0

(iii) 62n+1 ÷ 36 = 63
       ⇒ 62n+1 ÷ 62 = 63       [since 36 = 62]
       ⇒ 62n+162=63
       ⇒ 62n+1-2=63          [since aman=am-n ]
       ⇒ 62n-1 = 63
        On equating the coefficients:
        2n - 1 = 3
        ⇒ 2n = 3 + 1
        ⇒ 2n = 4
         ∴ n = 42=2

Answer:

(d) -6427

-34-3=4-33                           since ab-n=ban

           = 43-33

           = 4×4×4-3×-3×-3=64-27

           = 64×-1-27×-1=-6427

Answer:

(b) -35

-53-1=3-51                                       since ab-n=ban
           = 3-5×-1-1=-35

Answer:

(a) 19

13-3-12-3=313-213                                         since ab-1=ba1
                        = 33-23
                        = (27 − 8) = 19

Answer:

(a) 49


-2310÷-238 = -2310-8            since am÷an=am-n
                              = -232
                              = -2232=49

Answer:

(c) 3.263 x 105

A given number is said to be in standard form if it can be expressed as k x 10n, where k is a real number such that 1 ≤ k < 10 and n is a positive integer.
For example: 3.263 x 105

Answer:

(i) If 9 × 3n = 36, then n = 4.
Explanation:
If 9 × 3n = 36
⇒ 32 × 3n = 36
⇒ 3(2 + n) = 36
Equating the powers:
⇒ ( 2 + n) = 6
n = (6 - 2) = 4

(ii) (8)0 = 1
Explanation:
By definition, we have a0 = 1 for every integer a.
(8)0 = 1

(iii) ab-16 = ba16
Explanation:
We know:
  ab-1=ba1

(iv) (−2)−5 = -132
Explanation:
(−2)−5 = -21-5=1-25         Since ab-1=ba1
= 15-25=1×1×1×1×1-2×-2×-2×-2×-2=1-32

Answer:

(i) True
645 = 6.45 x 102                  [since the decimal point is moved 2 places to the left]

(ii) False
 27000 = 2.7 x 104               [since the decimal point is moved 4 places to the left]

(iii) False
(30 + 40 + 50) = 1               [since a0 = 1 for every integer a]

(iv) False
Reciprocal of 56 = Reciprocal of 516=156

(v) False
5−1 × x = 8−1 
15×x=18
x = 18×5=58
