Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 0

Cevap

The unit digit of the expression is 0.

The sum of the factorial terms from k=1 to k=4 contributes unit digits of 1, 4, 6, and 6, totaling 17 (unit digit 7). Terms for k >= 5 end in 0. The power tower term 7^(7^7) has an exponent 7^7 which leaves a remainder of 3 when divided by 4. Since the cyclicity of 7 is 4, 7^3 gives a unit digit of 3. Adding 7 and 3 results in 10, giving a final unit digit of 0.

What is the unit digit of the composite expression $E = (1! + 2! + 3! + \dots + 20!)^{2026} + (3^1 \times 3^2 \times 3^3 \times \dots \times 3^{20})$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 8

Cevap

The unit digit of the expression is 8.

Evaluating the expression requires breaking it down into two components. First, for the factorial sum

1! + 2! + 3! + \dots + 20!

, every term from

5!

onward contains factors of both 2 and 5, so its unit digit is 0. The unit digit of the sum is determined solely by

1! + 2! + 3! + 4! = 33

, which has a unit digit of 3. Raising 3 to the power 2026 gives

3^{2026}

. Since the unit digits of powers of 3 repeat in cycles of 4 (3, 9, 7, 1) and

2026 \equiv 2 \pmod 4

, the unit digit of

3^{2026}

is

3^2 = 9

.

Second, the product

3^1 \times 3^2 \times \dots \times 3^{20}

simplifies using the exponent addition rule to

3^{1+2+\dots+20} = 3^{210}

. Dividing 210 by 4 leaves a remainder of 2, so

3^{210}

also has a unit digit of

3^2 = 9

.

Adding the unit digits of both terms gives

9 + 9 = 18

, resulting in a final unit digit of 8.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Find the unit digit of the inner factorial sum

S = 1! + 2! + 3! + \dots + 20!

.

The unit digit of

S

is 3.

For all

k \ge 5

,

k!

is divisible by 10 and ends in 0. Thus, only the sum of the first four terms

1! + 2! + 3! + 4! = 1 + 2 + 6 + 24 = 33

determines the unit digit.

2

Calculate the unit digit of the first term

S^{2026} \equiv 3^{2026}

.

The unit digit of the first term is 9.

The unit digits of powers of 3 repeat in a cycle of 4 (3, 9, 7, 1). Dividing the exponent 2026 by 4 gives a remainder of 2 (

2026 = 4 \times 506 + 2

). Therefore, the unit digit is

3^2 = 9

.

3

Simplify the exponential product

P = 3^1 \times 3^2 \times 3^3 \times \dots \times 3^{20}

.

The product simplifies to

3^{210}

.

By exponent multiplication rules,

3^1 \times 3^2 \times \dots \times 3^{20} = 3^{\sum_{i=1}^{20} i}

. The sum of the first 20 positive integers is

\frac{20 \times 21}{2} = 210

.

4

Calculate the unit digit of

3^{210}

.

The unit digit of the second term is 9.

Dividing the exponent 210 by 4 gives a remainder of 2 (

210 = 4 \times 52 + 2

). Therefore, the unit digit is

3^2 = 9

.

5

Combine the unit digits of the two terms.

The unit digit of

E

is 8.

Adding the unit digits gives

9 + 9 = 18

. The unit digit of 18 is 8.

Cevap: Both Statement I and Statement II together are sufficient to answer the question, but neither statement alone is sufficient.

Cevap

Both Statement I and Statement II together are sufficient to answer the question, but neither statement alone is sufficient.

Evaluating both statements together shows that Statement I requires

n

to be a multiple of

18

(

2^1 \times 3^2

) and Statement II requires

n

to be a multiple of

12

(

2^2 \times 3^1

). The least common multiple of

18

and

12

is

36

, which proves that

n

is guaranteed to be divisible by

36

. Neither statement alone provides both prime factor requirements.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Analyze Statement I individually

Statement I states that

n^2

is divisible by

108 = 2^2 \times 3^3

. In the prime factorization of a square

n^2

, all exponents must be even numbers. Thus,

n^2

must contain at least

2^2

and

3^4

. Taking square roots,

n

must be a multiple of

2^1 \times 3^2 = 18

. If

n = 18

,

n

is NOT divisible by

36

. If

n = 36

,

n

IS divisible by

36

. Because we get both 'No' and 'Yes' answers, Statement I alone is NOT sufficient.

We must test if Statement I uniquely determines whether

n

is divisible by

36

.

2

Analyze Statement II individually

Statement II states that

n^3

is divisible by

576 = 2^6 \times 3^2

. In the prime factorization of a cube

n^3

, all exponents must be multiples of

3

. Thus,

n^3

must contain at least

2^6

and

3^3

. Taking cube roots,

n

must be a multiple of

2^2 \times 3^1 = 12

. If

n = 12

,

n

is NOT divisible by

36

. If

n = 36

,

n

IS divisible by

36

. Because we get both 'No' and 'Yes' answers, Statement II alone is NOT sufficient.

We must test if Statement II uniquely determines whether

n

is divisible by

36

.

3

Combine Statement I and Statement II

From Statement I,

n

contains at least

3^2

in its prime factorization. From Statement II,

n

contains at least

2^2

in its prime factorization. Combining these requirements,

n

must contain at least

2^2 \times 3^2 = 36

. Therefore,

n

is guaranteed to be divisible by

36

. Both statements together yield a definitive 'Yes'.

Evaluating both statements together combines the minimal necessary powers of each prime factor.

If $M = \sqrt{7 + 2\sqrt{10}} + \sqrt{7 - 2\sqrt{10}}$ and $x$ satisfies the exponential equation $\left(\sqrt[3]{4}\right)^{2x-1} = \left(\frac{1}{16}\right)^{x-4}$ with $\left(\sqrt[3]{4}\right)^{2x-1} = 2^k$ , what is the value of $M^2 + k$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 23.5

Cevap

The value of

M^2 + k

is 23.5.

By writing

7 \pm 2\sqrt{10}

as

(\sqrt{5} \pm \sqrt{2})^2

, the radical simplifies cleanly to

M = 2\sqrt{5}

, giving

M^2 = 20

. Rewriting the index equation in terms of base 2 yields

\frac{4x-2}{3} = -4x + 16

, which gives

x = \frac{25}{8}

and exponent

k = 3.5

. Adding

M^2

and

k

results in 23.5.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Simplify the nested surd expression for M

M = 2\sqrt{5}, so M^2 = 20

Recognize that

7 \pm 2\sqrt{10} = (\sqrt{5} \pm \sqrt{2})^2

.

2

Convert both sides of the exponential equation to base 2

2^{\frac{4x-2}{3}} = 2^{-4x+16}

Apply laws of indices:

\sqrt[3]{4} = 2^{2/3}

and

\frac{1}{16} = 2^{-4}

.

3

Solve for x by equating the powers of 2

x = \frac{25}{8} = 3.125

Since bases are equal, the powers must be equal.

4

Determine the exponent value k

k = 3.5

Substitute x into the exponent expression

k = -4x + 16

.

5

Calculate the final combined expression M^2 + k

23.5

Add

M^2 = 20

and

k = 3.5

.

The Highest Common Factor (HCF) and Least Common Multiple (LCM) of two positive three-digit integers $P$ and $Q$ (where $P > Q$ ) are $24$ and $1080$ , respectively. If the difference between the two numbers is $96$ , what is the sum of the two numbers ( $P + Q$ )?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 336

Cevap

The sum of the two numbers P and Q is 336.

By representing

P = 24a

and

Q = 24b

with

\gcd(a, b) = 1

, the relation

\text{HCF} \times \text{LCM} = P \times Q

yields

a \times b = 45

. The coprime factor pairs of

45

are

(45, 1)

and

(9, 5)

. The pair

(45, 1)

gives

1080

and

24

, which are not both three-digit numbers. The pair

(9, 5)

gives

P = 216

and

Q = 120

, both of which are three-digit numbers with a difference of

96

. The sum of these two numbers is

216 + 120 = 336

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Express the two numbers in terms of their HCF and coprime factors

Let

P = 24a

and

Q = 24b

where

\gcd(a, b) = 1

and

a > b

.

Any two numbers sharing an HCF of

h

can be represented as

h \cdot a

and

h \cdot b

where

a

and

b

have no common prime factors.

2

Relate the product of the coprime factors to the LCM and HCF

a \times b = \frac{\text{LCM}}{\text{HCF}} = \frac{1080}{24} = 45

.

The product of two numbers equals the product of their HCF and LCM:

(24a)(24b) = 24 \times 1080

.

3

Identify all coprime factor pairs of 45

The coprime factor pairs

(a, b)

with

a > b

are

(45, 1)

and

(9, 5)

.

Factor pairs such as

(15, 3)

are invalid because

\gcd(15, 3) = 3 \neq 1

.

4

Apply the three-digit integer and difference constraints to select the valid pair

For

(a, b) = (9, 5)

,

P = 24 \times 9 = 216

and

Q = 24 \times 5 = 120

. Difference =

216 - 120 = 96

.

The pair

(45, 1)

yields

P = 1080

(four digits) and

Q = 24

(two digits), failing the three-digit criteria.

5

Calculate the sum of

P

and

Q

P + Q = 216 + 120 = 336

.

The question asks specifically for the sum

P + Q

.

Cevap

16

Evaluating the expression according to VBODMAS rules step-by-step: first the vinculum gives 1.5; adding inside round brackets gives 3; dividing inside curly braces gives 4; multiplying and adding inside square brackets gives 14.5; finally multiplying by 2 gives 29, and subtracting from 45 yields 16.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Evaluate the expression under the vinculum (bar)

\overline{2.7 - 1.2} = 1.5

According to VBODMAS, operations under a vinculum must be simplified first.

2

Simplify the expression inside the round brackets (parentheses)

1.5 + 1.5 = 3

Parentheses have priority after the vinculum is resolved.

3

Evaluate the division inside the curly braces

12 \div 3 = 4

Operations within braces are evaluated next.

4

Simplify the expression inside the square brackets

3 \times 4 + 2.5 = 12 + 2.5 = 14.5

Inside brackets, multiplication takes precedence over addition.

5

Perform final operations outside brackets using standard operator precedence

45 - 14.5 \times 2 = 45 - 29 = 16

Multiplication must be executed before subtraction.

120^\circ

for the four hours plus an extra

5^\circ

for the ten minutes passed. The difference between their specific positions (

125^\circ

and

60^\circ

) is exactly

65^\circ

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the angular position of the minute hand relative to the 12 o'clock mark.

The minute hand is at 10 minutes, which corresponds to an angle of

10 \times 6^\circ = 60^\circ

.

The minute hand moves

360^\circ

in 60 minutes, which equals a speed of

6^\circ

per minute.

2

Calculate the angular position of the hour hand relative to the 12 o'clock mark.

The hour hand has moved past the 4 o'clock mark. Its position is

4 \times 30^\circ + 10 \times 0.5^\circ = 120^\circ + 5^\circ = 125^\circ

.

The hour hand moves

30^\circ

per hour and an additional

0.5^\circ

per minute due to continuous drift.

3

Find the absolute difference between the two angular positions to determine the angle between the hands.

|125^\circ - 60^\circ| = 65^\circ

.

The angle between the two hands is simply the absolute difference of their individual positions from the 12 o'clock reference point.

As the Municipal Commissioner overseeing a high-value infrastructure tender, you are informed that the technical evaluation committee has shortlisted three firms. Just two days before the final financial bids are to be opened, you receive a credible anonymous email with documentary evidence showing that the Chief Engineer, who heads the evaluation committee, has a spouse holding significant undisclosed shares in the highest-rated firm. The project is already delayed by a year, and the allocated central funds will irrevocably lapse in 15 days if the contract is not awarded. What is the most administratively sound and ethically appropriate course of action?

Cancel the entire tender process immediately, suspend the Chief Engineer pending a vigilance inquiry, and permanently blacklist the highest-rated firm to set a precedent against corruption.

Proceed with the financial bid opening to ensure the project funds do not lapse, but quietly remove the Chief Engineer from the subsequent project execution phase to prevent any future undue influence.

Pause the financial bid opening, immediately constitute an independent fact-finding committee to verify the evidence within a strict timeframe, and officially apprise the funding agency of the situation to seek a provisional extension.

Privately confront the Chief Engineer with the evidence and ask him to voluntarily recuse himself from the committee retrospectively, allowing the second-highest rated firm to be awarded the contract.

Cevap

Pause the financial bid opening, immediately constitute an independent fact-finding committee to verify the evidence within a strict timeframe, and officially apprise the funding agency of the situation to seek a provisional extension.

The correct course of action prioritizes institutional integrity and transparency. By pausing the process and initiating a time-bound inquiry, the administrator ensures due process is followed. By officially communicating with the funding agency, they handle the timeline pressure professionally without compromising ethical standards.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Analyze the core conflict presented in the scenario.

The tension is between upholding procedural integrity (addressing the conflict of interest) and meeting strict administrative deadlines (preventing the lapse of funds).

Identifying the competing values is essential for evaluating which course of action respects the hierarchy of administrative ethics.

2

Evaluate the legality and proportionality of immediate punitive actions.

Taking drastic measures like immediate suspension or blacklisting without formal verification violates natural justice.

Administrative decisions must be backed by formal inquiries, not just initial allegations or anonymous tips.

3

Assess the transparency and formal correctness of the proposed solutions.

The correct action must involve a formal halt, a time-bound objective investigation, and transparent communication with stakeholders (the funding agency).

Transparency and adherence to due process are paramount in public administration, taking precedence over informal compromises or rushed expediency.

Evaluating each term by cyclicity yields unit digits of 6 for

412^{120}

, 7 for

317^{201}

, and 6 for

814^{102}

. Combining these according to the operations gives

(6 + 7) - 6 = 7

, resulting in a unit digit of 7.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Determine the unit digit of

412^{120}

Unit digit is 6

The unit digit of base 412 is 2, which has a cyclicity of 4 (2, 4, 8, 6). The exponent 120 is divisible by 4 (

120 \pmod 4 = 0

), so we take the 4th power in the cycle:

2^4 = 16

, giving a unit digit of 6.

2

Determine the unit digit of

317^{201}

Unit digit is 7

The unit digit of base 317 is 7, which has a cyclicity of 4 (7, 9, 3, 1). The exponent remainder is

201 \pmod 4 = 1

, corresponding to

7^1 = 7

.

3

Determine the unit digit of

814^{102}

Unit digit is 6

The unit digit of base 814 is 4, which has a cyclicity of 2 (4 for odd powers, 6 for even powers). Since 102 is an even exponent, the unit digit is 6.

4

Combine the unit digits according to the expression

E = (412^{120} + 317^{201}) - 814^{102}

Unit digit is 7

Adding the unit digits of the first two terms gives

6 + 7 = 13

, which has a unit digit of 3. Subtracting 6 gives

3 - 6 = -3

, which in modulo 10 arithmetic yields

13 - 6 = 7

.
