encode your solution using this paper, or you could write your solution on another sheet
of paper and get the photo of which and send it as attachment here. (10 points each)
1. If 2A = 3 and 2B = 5, then 22A + B =
Ans: 22 A +B =22 ×2 2 ×2 B=3 ×3 × 5=45
2. Give the answer in terms of roots. √ 32+ √72+ √ 98=¿ ¿
Ans. √ 32+ √72+ √ 98=√ 2× 16+ √ 2× 36+ √ 2× 49
¿ 4 √ 2+6 √2+7 √ 2=17 √ 2
3. If 27a = 81b, and a+b = 56, then a-b = _______
Ans. 27 a=81b=33 a=3 4 b
33 a
=1 33 a−4 b=1
34 b
Considering the exponents: a+b= 56; b= 56-a
Subs: 3a-4(56-a) a=32 and b = 24
Therefore: a-b = 32 – 24 = 8
