LOGARITHMS F6


 

BODMAS F1

 

Evaluate 90 + 50 x 3 – 80 ÷ 4

 

Solution

 

We apply BODMAS.

 

= 90 + 50 x 3 – 80 ÷ 4

 

= 90 + 50 x 3 – 20    [After dividing]

 

= 90 + 150 – 20    [After multiplying]

 

= 240 – 20    [After adding]

 

= 220       [After subtracting]

 

Hence 90 + 50 x 3 – 80 ÷ 4 = 220

LOGARITHMS F5

 Evaluate Log60 – Log0.42 + Log700.

 

Solution

 

= Log60 – Log0.42 + Log700.

 

= Log(60 x 700)

               0.42

 

= Log(42000)

             0.42

 

= Log(4200000)

              42

 

 

= Log 100,000

             

 

= Log10100,000

 

= Log10105

            

= 5Log1010

 

= 5 x 1

 

= 5

 

Log60 – Log0.03 + Log50 = 4

BANKING F1

 

Asad deposited the amount of 200,000/= in a bank for 3 years and got a profit of 66000/=. Find the interest rate?

 

Solution

 

I = 66000/=, P = 200,000/=, T = 3 years, R = ?

 

I  = PRT

      100

 

66,000  = 200000 x R x 3

                      100

 

66,000  = 200000 x R x 3

                      100

 

66,000  = 2000 x R x 3

                     

66,000  = 6000R

          

1166,000  = 6000R

   6000       6000

 

Hence the interest rate was 11%

EXPONENTIALS F2

 If y5 = 6, find y15.

 

Solution

 

= y15

 

= (y5)3

 

= (6)3      remember y5 = 6

 

= 6 x 6 x 6

 

= 216

 

Hence y10 = 121.

 

TRY THIS……………….

 

If  y15 = 4, find y60.

LOGARITHMS F3

 If Logax = 4, find Loga(1/x44)

Solution

= Loga(1/x44)

= Logax-44          [since 1/an = a-n]

= -44 x Logax    [since Logaxn   = nLogax ]

= -44 x 4

= -176 answer

TRY THIS………..

If Logab= 12, find Loga(1/b20)

SIMPLIFY F1

 

Simplify the expression w2 - t2/ (w + t)

 

Solution

 

From difference of two squares p2 - q2 = (p - q)(p + q)

 

= w2 - t2/ (w + t)

 

(w + t)(w - t)

      w + t

 

(w + t)(w - t)

      w + t

 

=  w - t    answer

FUNCTIONS F1

 


FACTORIZE F1

 Factorize completely 2t – 98t3

 

Solution

 

= 2t – 98t

 

= 2t(1 – 49t2)

 

= 2t(1 – 72t2)

 

= 2t[(1)2 – (7t)2]

 

From difference of two squares, a2 – b2 = (a-b)(a+b)

 

= 2t[(1 – 7t)(1 + 7t)]

 

= 2t(1 – 7t)(1 + 7t) answer
