if a^(1/m) = b^(1/n) = c^(1/p) and abc=1. What is 'm+n+p'?
|| ✰✰ ANSWER ✰✰ ||
Let us assume that , a^(1/m) = b^(1/n) = c^(1/p) = K ( where k is any constant Number).
So,
→ a^(1/m) = k
→ a = k^m ---------- Equation (1)
Similarly,
→ b^(1/n) = k
→ b = k^n ------------ Equation (2)
And ,
→ c^(1/p) = k
→ c = k^p ------------- Equation (3)
now, given that, abc = 1 ,
Putting values of all Equations here , we get,
→ k^m * k^n * k^p = 1
or,
→ k^(m+n+p) = 1
Now, we know that, a^0 = 1 , or value of any power zero is Equal to 1. ,
So, RHS , can be written as ,
→ k^(m+n+p) = k^0
Comparing now, we get,
→ (m + n + p) = 0 (Ans).
Step-by-step explanation:
A^(1/m) = b^(1/n) = c^(1/p) and abc=1. What is 'm+n+p'?
__________________________________
a^(1/m)= b^(1/n)=c^(1/p)=K
a=k^(1/1/m)=k^m
Similarly b= k^n and c= k^p
Now, abc= 1 ( Given)
k^m x k^n x k^p= 1
k^(m+n+p) =1=k^0
Hence, m+n+p= 0
