\begin{align}
\left(\dfrac{a}{b}\right)^{x-2} = \left(\dfrac{b}{a}\right)^{x-7}.\\\text{ What is the value of x ?}
\end{align}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

\begin{align}&\left(\sqrt{x} - \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{x}}\right)^2\\\\
&= x - 2 + \dfrac{1}{x}\\\\
&= x + \dfrac{1}{x} - 2 \\\\
&= \left(8 + 3\sqrt{7}\right) + \dfrac{1}{\left(8 + 3\sqrt{7}\right)} - 2 \\\\
&= \left(8 + 3\sqrt{7}\right) + \dfrac{\left(8 - 3\sqrt{7}\right)}{\left(8 + 3\sqrt{7}\right)\left(8 - 3\sqrt{7}\right)} - 2 \\\\
&= \left(8 + 3\sqrt{7}\right) + \dfrac{\left(8 - 3\sqrt{7}\right)}{8^2 - \left(3\sqrt{7}\right)^2} - 2 \\\\
&= \left(8 + 3\sqrt{7}\right) + \dfrac{\left(8 - 3\sqrt{7}\right)}{64 - 63} - 2 \\\\
&= \left(8 + 3\sqrt{7}\right) + \dfrac{\left(8 - 3\sqrt{7}\right)}{1} - 2 \\\\
&= 8 + 3\sqrt{7} + 8 - 3\sqrt{7} - 2 \\\\
&= 14 \\\\
&\text{as }\left(\sqrt{x} - \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{x}}\right)^2 = 14\\\\
&\text{so ,}\left(\sqrt{x} - \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{x}}\right) = \sqrt{14}\end{align}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
= 256^{0.16+0.09} = 256^{0.25} = 256^{\frac{25}{100}}
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
= 256^{\frac{1}{4}}= (4^4)^{\frac{1}{4}}
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
=(4)^{4 \times \frac{1}{4}} = 4
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Lets assume,
\begin{aligned}
\left(25 \right)^{7.5} \times \left(5 \right)^{2.5} \div \left(125 \right)^{1.5} = 5^x \\
\text{then, } \frac{ \left( 5^2 \right)^{7.5} \times \left(5 \right)^{2.5} }{\left(5^3 \right)^{1.5} } = 5^x \\
=> \text{then, } \frac{ \left( 5^{15} \right) \times \left(5^{2.5} \right) }{\left(5^{4.5} \right) } = 5^x \\

=> 5^x = 5^{15 + 2.5 - 4.5} \\
=> 5^x = 5^{13} \\
\text{Hence, } x = 13
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
6^{m-2}\\ = \dfrac{6^m}{6^2}\\ = \dfrac{46656}{6^2}\\ = \dfrac{46656}{36} = 1296
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Clue:

\begin{aligned}
(\sqrt{x} - \frac{1}{\sqrt{x}})^2 = x + \frac{1}{x} - 2 \
\end{aligned}
Now put the value of x to calculate the answer :)
