MCQ
$\frac{(144)^{\frac{1}{2}}+(256)^{\frac{1}{2}}}{3^2-2}=$
  • A
    $8$
  • $4$
  • C
    $-4$
  • D
    $-8$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$4$
$\frac{(144)^{\frac{1}{2}}+(256)^{\frac{1}{2}}}{3^2-2}$
$=\frac{(12^2)^{\frac{1}{2}}+(16^2)^{\frac{1}{2}}}{9-2}$
$=\frac{12^{2\times\frac{1}{2}}+16^{2\times\frac{1}{2}}}{7}$ $[\text{As, }(\text{x}^{\text{m}})^{\text{n}}=\text{x}^{\text{mn}}]$
$=\frac{12+16}{7}$
$=\frac{28}{7}$
$=4$
Hence, the correct alternative is option $(b).$
