Q1 Text Solution: = 625 + 216 + 72
⇒ logp (logq (logr x)) = 0 = 890
⇒ logq (logr x) = 1 ⇒ logr x = q Q5 Text Solution:
⇒ x=r q
...(1) We have
logq (logr (logp x)) = 0 60a = 3 ⇒ a = log60 3
⇒ logr (logp x) = 1 ⇒ logp x = r 60b = 5 ⇒ b = log60 5
⇒ x = pr .. (2) So,
1−(a+b) 1−(log60 3+log60 5)
From (1) and (2), r = pr
q
=
2(1−b) 2(log60 60−log60 5)
⇒ p = rq/r log60 60−log60 15 log60 4

Q2 Text Solution:
We have N = 6log10 40 × 5log10 36 = 12 log12 4 = log12 2

∴ log10 N = log10 40 × log10 6 + log10 36 ⇒ 12 2(1−b) = 12log12 2 = 2

∴ N = 63 = 216 or a + 2a log5 7 = 2 + log5 7

or log 5 7 = 1−2a ...(i)
Q3 Text Solution:
log5 875 3+log5 7
log27 a + log9 b = 72 and Now b= log5 1715

log27 b + log9 a = 23 or b + 3b log5 7 = 3 + log5 7
b−3
⇒ 13 log3 a + 12 log3 b = 72 or log 5 7 = ...(ii)

ln1
We have, =x ⇒ =x
lnx lnx ⇒ x + y = 10z
⇒ x = 0 or ln x = 0 and x2 + y2 = 10×10z
∴ x = 0 or x = 1 but both are unacceptable
Squaring(1), we get (x + y)2 = 102z
So no solution exist. ⇒ x2 + y2 + 2xy = 102z
Q2 Text Solution: ⇒ 2xy = 102z – 10×10z
(lnx)2 –1+ (lnx – 1) (ln2x –2lnx –7) = 0 Now, x3 + y3 = (x + y)3 –3xy(x + y)
