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
$2\sqrt{2}$ 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.
