You're on a roll — let's tackle these math problems!
6. If log10(2)=0.3010, what is log10(8)?
Step 1: Express 8 as a power of 2.
8=23
Step 2: Use the logarithm property logb(Mp)=plogb(M).
log10(8)=log10(23)=3log10(2)
Step 3: Substitute the given value of log10(2).
3×0.3010=0.9030
The correct option is A.
A.0.9030
7. Find the value of x if 2x+3y=11 and x+y=5.
Step 1: From the second equation, express y in terms of x.
x+y=5⟹y=5−x
Step 2: Substitute this expression for y into the first equation.
2x+3(5−x)=11
2x+15−3x=11
Step 3: Simplify and solve for x.
−x+15=11
−x=11−15
−x=−4
x=4
The correct option is D.
D.4
8. What is the sum of the first 10 terms of the arithmetic progression 2, 5, 8, ...?
Step 1: Identify the first term (a), common difference (d), and number of terms (n).
The first term a=2.
The common difference d=5−2=3.
The number of terms n=10.
Step 2: Use the formula for the sum of the first n terms of an arithmetic progression, Sn=2n[2a+(n−1)d].
S10=210[2(2)+(10−1)3]
S10=5[4+(9)3]
S10=5[4+27]
S10=5[31]
S10=155
The correct option is A.
A.155
9. If P={x:xisaprimenumber<10}, Q={x:xisanoddnumber<10}, find P∩Q.
Step 1: List the elements of set P.
Prime numbers less than 10 are numbers greater than 1 that have no positive divisors other than 1 and themselves.
P={2,3,5,7}
Step 2: List the elements of set Q.
Odd numbers less than 10 are integers not divisible by 2.
Q={1,3,5,7,9}
Step 3: Find the intersection P∩Q, which consists of elements common to both sets P and Q.
P∩Q={3,5,7}
The correct option is C.
C.{3,5,7}
10. Find the equation of the circle with centre (2,3) and radius 4.
Step 1: Recall the standard equation of a circle with centre (h,k) and radius r.
(x−h)2+(y−k)2=r2
Step 2: Substitute the given centre (h,k)=(2,3) and radius r=4 into the equation.
(x−2)2+(y−3)2=42
(x−2)2+(y−3)2=16
The correct option is A.
A.(x−2)2+(y−3)2=16
