Question
Aman is forming pairs of two natural numbers, A and B,
such that their product equals 350. He wants to determine how many such pairs exist where A and B are co-prime. How many such pairs can be created?Solution
Co-prime numbers are the ones whose HCF is 1. The possible number of pairs of ‘A’ and ‘B’, such that, ‘A’ and ‘B’ are co-prime = 2k – 1 Where, ‘k’ is the number of prime factors of the product. 350 = 21 × 52 × 71 So, the number of prime factors of 350 = k = 3 So, the possible number of pairs of ‘A’ and ‘B’, such that they are co-prime = 23 – 1 = 22 = 4
If (x2 + y2) = 9 and (xy)2 = 3, then find the value of (x4 + y4).
If, ( a + b = 20 ) and ( a² + b² = 208 ), then find the value of (a³ + b³).

If (a + b) = 7 and ab = 11, then find the value of (a² + b²).
If (x 2 = 10x – 25), then find the value of [x³ + (x⁴/25)][7 - x³]
If 27 (x+y)³ − 8(x−y)³ = (x + 5y) (Ax² + By² + Cxy), then what is the value of (A+B-C)?
If a + b + c = 8, a² + b² + c² = 18 and ab + b c+ ca = 12, then what is the value of a³ + b³ +c³ –3abc?
