Problem 1 — Algebra

If x2+y2=13x2+y2=13 and xy=6xy=6, the value of ∣x+y∣∣x+y∣ is:

Show answer & worked solution
  1. A. 55✓ correct
  2. B. 77
  3. C. 1313​
  4. D. 11

(x+y)2=(x2+y2)+2xy=13+12=25(x+y)2=(x2+y2)+2xy=13+12=25, so ∣x+y∣=5∣x+y∣=5.

Problem 2 — Calculus

Let f(x)=lim⁡k→xk2−16k2−5k+4+∣C7x3x+14log⁡3i0∣f(x)=limk→x​k2−5k+4k2−16​+​C7x​4log3​i​3x+10​​. Find f(4)+f(0)f(4)+f(0).

Show answer & worked solution
  1. A. −3−3
  2. B. 5335​
  3. C. −43−34​✓ correct
  4. D. 55
  5. E. 8338​
  6. F. −4−4

∙∙ Simplify the limit by factoring numerator and denominator:

lim⁡k→x(k−4)(k+4)(k−4)(k−1)=x+4x−1k→xlim​(k−4)(k−1)(k−4)(k+4)​=x−1x+4​

∙∙ The determinant has a row of zeros (with log⁡31=0log3​1=0), so it contributes 00:

f(x)=x+4x−1f(x)=x−1x+4​

∙∙ Evaluate at x=4x=4 and x=0x=0:

f(4)=83,f(0)=−4f(4)=38​,f(0)=−4

∙∙ Sum them:

f(4)+f(0)=83−4=−43f(4)+f(0)=38​−4=−34​

Problem 3 — Logarithms

Calculați produsul log⁡23⋅log⁡34⋅log⁡45⋯log⁡255256log2​3⋅log3​4⋅log4​5⋯log255​256.

Show answer & worked solution
  1. A. 88✓ correct
  2. B. 1616
  3. C. 128128
  4. D. 256256

Folosind schimbarea de bază, log⁡k(k+1)=ln⁡(k+1)ln⁡klogk​(k+1)=lnkln(k+1)​. Produsul telescopează: ln⁡3ln⁡2⋅ln⁡4ln⁡3⋯ln⁡256ln⁡255=ln⁡256ln⁡2=log⁡2256=8ln2ln3​⋅ln3ln4​⋯ln255ln256​=ln2ln256​=log2​256=8.
