D.

  
 2560.16 x 160.18 = (44)0.16 x (42)0.18 
 = 4(4x0.16)x4(2x0.18) 
 = 4(0.64 + 0.36)  
 = 41 
 = 4 

Q 7 - b/a = 0.25. What is (2a-b)/(2a+b) + 2/9?

A.

B.

C.

D.

(2a-b)/(2a+b) + 2/9 = (2-b/a)/(2+b/a) + 2/9 = (2-1/4)/(2+1/4) + 2/9 = 7/9 + 2/9 = (7+2)/9 = 9/9 = 1 

Q 8 - (0.87 x 0.87 x 0.87 + 0.13 x 0.13 x 0.13) / (0.87 x 0.87 - 0.87 x 0.13 + 0.13 x 0.13)= ?

A.

B.

C.

D.

 
 As a3 + b3 = (a+b)(a2-ab + b2) 
 Thus (a3 + b3) / (a2-ab + b2)  = a + b  
 ∴ (0.87 x 0.87 x 0.87 + 0.13 x 0.13 x 0.13) / (0.87 x 0.87 - 0.87 x 0.13 + 0.13 x 0.13) = 0.87 + 0.13 = 1
