(x) (5-1 ? 3-1) + 6-1 Solution:
Question 2. 1125 = 3m ? 5n; find m and n Solution: 1125 = 32 ? 53 The factors of 1125 are 3 ? 3 ? 5 ? 5 ? 5
Therefore 1125 = 3 ? 3 ? 5 ? 5 ? 5 Now comparing, 32 ? 53 = 3m ? 5n Therefore m=2, n=3 Question 3. Find x, if 9 ? 3x = (27)2x - 3 Solution: 9 ? 3x = (27)2x - 3 32 ? 3x = (3 ? 3 ? 3)2x - 3 (Simplifying the given equation) 3x + 2 = (3)3(2x - 3) 3x + 2 = (3)6x - 9 Since bases are same, compare them, x + 2 = 6x - 9 6x ? x = 9 + 2 5x = 11 x = 11/2 (Shifting the terms)

Exercise 2(B)
Question 1. Compute:
(i) 18 ? 30 ? 53 ? 22
Solution:
18 ? 30 ? 53 ? 22
= 1 ? 1 ? 5 ? 5 ? 5 ? 2 ? 2
= 125 ? 4
(Simplifying the given equation)
= 500
(ii) (47)2 ? (4-3)4
Solution: (47)2 ? (4-3)4 = 414 ? 4-12 = 414 ? 12 = 42
= 4 ? 4 = 16
(Simplifying the given equation)
(iii) (2-9 ? 2-11)3
Solution: = (2-9 + 11)3 = (22)3 = 26
(Simplifying the given equation)
= 2 ? 2 ? 2 ? 2 ? 2 ? 2 = 64

(vi) (12)-2 ?33 Solution: = (2 ? 2 ? 3)-2 ? 33 = (22 ? 3)-2 ? 33 = 2- 2 ? 2 ? 3-2 ? 33 =2-4 ? 3-2 + 3 ? 33 = 2-4 ? 31
(vii) (-5)4 ? (-5)6 ? (-5)9 Solution: = (-5)4 + 6 - 9 = (-5)1 = -5 (viii) Solution:
(ix) 90 ? 4-1 ? 2-4 Solution:
= 24-2 = 22 = 4
(x) (625)- ? Solution: (625)- ? = (5 ? 5 ? 5 ? 5)? ?

(xiv) (243)2/5 ? (32)-2/5 Solution: = (3 ? 3 ? 3 ? 3 ? 3)2/5 ? (2 ? 2 ? 2 ? 2 ? 2)-2/5 = (35)2/5 ? (25)-2/5 = 35?(2/5) ? 2(-2/5)?5 = 32 ? 2-2 = 32 ? (1/2-2) = 32 ? 2+2 = 3 ? 3 ? 2 ? 2 = 36 (xv) (-3)4 - (3)0 ? (-2)5 ? (64)2/3 Solution: = ((-3) ? (-3) ? (-3) ? (-3)) -1 ? (-2) ? (-2) ? (-2) ? (-2) ? (-2) ? (26)2/3 Note: (3)0 = 1 = 34 + 25 ? 26 ? (2/3) = 34 + 25 ? 24 = 34 + (25/24) = 34 + 25 ? 4 = 34 + 2 = 3 ? 3 ? 3 ? 3 + 2 = 81 + 2 = 83 (xvi)

(ii) [(64)-2]-3 ? [{(-8)2}3]2 Solution: = (26)-2 ? -3 ? (-8)2 ? 3 ? 2 = 26 ? (6) ? (-8)12 = 2+36 ? (-8)12 = 2+36 ? [(-2)3]12 = 236 ? (-2)36
= 236 ? 36 = 20 = 1 (therefore a0 = 1) (iii) (2-3 - 2-4) (2-3 + 2-4) Solution: = (2-3)2 - (2-4)2 {(a - b) (a + b) = a2 - b2}
Question 3. Evaluate: (i) (-5)0 Solution: (-5)0 = 1(a0 = 1) (ii) 80 + 40 + 20 Solution: 80 + 40 + 20 = 1 + 1 + 1 = 3(a0 = 1) (iii) (8 + 4 + 2)0 Solution: (8 + 4 + 2)0 = (14)0 = 1(a0 = 1) (iv) 4x0
