MCQ
If x is a positive real number and x2 = 2, then x3 =
  • A
    $\sqrt{2}$
  • B
    $2\sqrt{2}$
  • C
    $3\sqrt{2}$
  • D
    $4$

Answer

  1. $2\sqrt{2}$
    Solution:
    We have to find x3 providedx2 = 2 So,
    By raising both sides to the power $\frac{1}{2}$
    $\text{x}^{2\times\frac{1}{2}}=2^{\frac{1}{2}}$
    $\text{x}^{2\times\frac{1}{2}}=\sqrt{2}$
    $\text{x}=\sqrt{2}$
    By substituting $\text{x}=\sqrt{2}$ in x3 we get
    $\text{x}^3\big(\sqrt{2}\big)^3$
    $=\sqrt{2}\times\sqrt{2}\times\sqrt{2}$
    $=2\sqrt{2}$
    The value of x3 is $2\sqrt{2}$
    Hence the correct choice is b.
