Question 13 Marks

How many times of $30$ must be added together to get a sum equal to $30^7$?

Answer

Let $n$ be the number of times that $30$ must be added together to get a sun equal to $30^7$
therefore, we can write that $\frac{\underbrace{30+30+\dots+30}=30^{7}}{\text{n times}}$
$\Rightarrow30\times\text{n}=30^{7}$
$\Big[\frac{{\underbrace{\because\text{a}+\text{a}+\dots+\text{a}\times}\text{n}}}{\text{n times}}\Big]$
$\Rightarrow\frac{30\times\text{n}}{30}=\frac{30^{7}}{30}[$dividing both sides by $30 ]$
$\Rightarrow\text{n}=30^{7-1}$
$\Big[\because\frac{\text{a}^{\text{m}}}{\text{a}^{\text{n}}}=\text{a}^{\text{m-n}}\Big]$
$\therefore\text{n}=30^{6}$
Hence, if $30$ is added $30^6$ times, then we get $30^7$

Question 63 Marks

Find m so that $\Big(\frac{2}{9}\Big)^{3}\times\Big(\frac{2}{9}\Big)^{6}=\Big(\frac{2}{9}\Big)^{\text{2m-1}}$

Answer

We have, $\Big(\frac{2}{9}\Big)^{3}\times\Big(\frac{2}{9}\Big)^{6}=\Big(\frac{2}{9}\Big)^{\text{2m-1}}$
$\Rightarrow\Big(\frac{2}{9}\Big)^{3+6}=\Big(\frac{2}{9}\Big)^{\text{2m-1}} [ \because a^m \times a^n=a^{m+n}]$
$\Rightarrow\Big(\frac{2}{9}\Big)^{9}=\Big(\frac{2}{9}\Big)^{\text{2m-1}}$
$\Rightarrow9=2\text{m}-1$ [$\because$
$a^m=a^n \Rightarrow m=n]$
$\Rightarrow9+1=2\text{m} [$transposing $(-1)$ to $LHS]$
$\Rightarrow10=2\text{m}[$diving both sides by $2]$
$\Rightarrow\frac{10}{2}=\frac{2\text{m}}{2}$
$\Rightarrow5=\text{m}$
Hence, $m = 5$

Question 93 Marks

If $2^{n+2}-2^{n+1}+2^n=c \times 2^n$, find the value of $c$.

Answer

$\text { We have, } 2^{n+2}+2^{n+1}+2 n=c \times 2^n$
$\Rightarrow 2^n 2^2+2^n 2^1+2^n$
$=c \times 2^n\left[\therefore a^{m+n}=a^m \times a^n\right]$
$\Rightarrow 2^n\left[2^2-2^1+1\right]$
$=c \times 2^n\left[\text { taking common } 2^n \text { in LHS }\right]$
$\Rightarrow 2^n[4-2+1]=c \times 2^n$
$\Rightarrow 3 \times 2^n=c \times 2^n 3 \times 2^n \times 2^{-n}$
$=c \times 3^n \times c^{-n}\left[\text { multiplying both sides by } 2^{-n}\right]$
$\Rightarrow 3 \times 2^{n-1}=c \times 2^{n-n}\left[\therefore a^{m+n}=a^m \times a^n\right]$
$\Rightarrow 3 \times 2^0=c \times 2^0$
$\Rightarrow 3 \times 1=c \times 1\left[\therefore a^0=1\right]$
$\therefore 3=c$

Name of the Planet		Mass (in kg)
$1$	Mercury	$330000000000000000000000$
$2$	Venus	$4870000000000000000000000$
$3$	Earth	$5980000000000000000000000$
$4$	Mars	$642000000000000000000000$

$9$	Pluto	$13100000000000000000000$

Answer

A number is written in standard form as a $\times 10^k$, where a is terminating decimal and $k$ is an integer.

Name of the Planet		Mass (in kg)
$1$	Mercury	$3.3 \times 10^{23}$
$2$	Venus	$4.87 \times 40^{24}$
$3$	Earth	$5.98 \times 10^{24}$
$4$	Mars	$6.42 \times 10^{27}$
$5$	Jupiter	$1.9 \times 10^{27}$
$6$	Saturn	$5.69 \times 10^{26}$
$7$	Uranus	$8.69 \times 10^{25}$
$8$	Neptune	$1.02 \times 10^{26}$
$9$	Pluto	$1.31 \times 10^{22}$

Two numbers written in scientific notation can be compared. The number with the larger power of $10$ is greater than the number with the smaller power of $10.$ If the powers of ten are the same, then the number with larger factor is the larger number.
Hence, the required descending order of the size will be
Jupiter > Saturn > Neptune > Uranus > Earth > Venus > Mars > Mercury > Pluto.

Question 123 Marks

Geometry Application: The number of diagonals of an n-sided figure is $\frac{1}{2}(\text{n}^{2}-3\text{n})$ Use the formula to find the number of diagonals for a $6-$sided figure (hexagon).

Answer

Given, a plygon has n sides, then number of diagonals is $\frac{1}{2}(\text{n}^{2}-3\text{n})$
In hexagon, there are six sides. therefore for calcutating number of diagonals in haxagon,
put $n = 6$ in the above formula.
$\therefore$ Number of diagonals $=\frac{1}{2}(\text{n}^{2}-3\text{n})=\frac{1}{2}(6^{2}-3\times6)$
$=\frac{1}{2}(6\times6-3\times6)$
$=\frac{1}{2}(36-18)=\frac{1}{2}(18)=9$
Hence, a hexagon has 9 diagonals.

Question 143 Marks

A light year is the distance that light can travel in one year. $1$ light year $= 9,460,000,000,000\ km.$
$a.$ Express one light year in scientific notation.
$b.$ The average distance between Earth and Sun is $1.496 \times 108\ km.$ Is the distance between Earth and the Sun greater than, less than or equal to one light year?

Answer

$a.$ Given, $1$ light year$ = 9,460,000,000,000\ km$
For standard from $=946\times10^{10}\ \text{km}$
$=\frac{946}{100}\times10^{10}\times100\ \text{km}$
$=9.46\times10^{12}\ \text{km}$
$b.$ the average distance between Earth and sun $= 1.496 \times 10^8 \mathrm{~km}$
$\therefore$ Distance between Earth and sun $=\frac{1.496}{10000}\times10^{8}\times10^{4}$
$=0.0001496\times10^{12}\ \text{km}$
Since, $9.46>0.0001496$
So, the distance between Earth and sun less than one light year.

Question 163 Marks

Arrange in ascending order:
$2^{2+3},\left(2^2\right)^3, 2 \times 2^2, \frac{3^5}{3^2} 3^2 \times 3^0, 2^3 \times 5^2$

Answer

In descending order, the numbers are arranged from largest to smallest.
We have, $22+3=25$
$=2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2=32$
$\left(2^2\right)^3=2^6$
$=2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2=64$
$2 \times 2^2=2^{1+2}$
$=2^3=8$
$\frac{3^5}{3^2}=3^{5-2}$
$=3^3=27$
$3^2 \times 3^0=3^{2+0}$
$=3^2=9$
$2^3 \times 5^2=2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 5 \times 5$
$=8 \times 25=200$
Thus, the required descending order will be.
$\left(2^2 \times 5^2\right)>\left(2^2\right)^3>2^{2+3}>\frac{3^5}{3^2}>\left(3^2 \times 3^0\right)>\left(2 \times 2^2\right)$

$3^6=3 \times 3 \times 3 \times 3 \times 3 \times 3=729$
$3^5=3 \times 3 \times 3 \times 3 \times 3=243$
$4^0=1\left[\therefore a^0=1\right]$
$\text { and } 2^3 \times 3^1$
$=2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3$
$=24$ Thus, the required ascending order will be.
$4^0<2^3 \times 2<23 \times 31<33<25<35<\left(3^3\right)^2$
