\begin{aligned}
\text{If } 3^{x-y} = 27 \text{ and } 3^{x+y} = 243, \\
\text{ then find the value of x }
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
= \frac{(10^3)^7}{(10)^{18}}
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
= \frac{(10)^{21}}{(10)^{18}} = 10^3 = 1000
\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 :)

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 A

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
= \frac{1}{\left( 1 + \frac{a^n}{a^m} \right)} +
\frac{1}{\left( 1 + \frac{a^m}{a^n} \right)} \\
= \frac{a^m}{(a^m+a^n)} + \frac{a^n}{(a^m+a^n)} \\
= \frac{(a^m+a^n)}{(a^m+a^n)} = 1
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
= (256)^{\frac{5}{4}} = (4^4)^{\frac{5}{4}} = 4^5 = 1024
\end{aligned}
