Answer to Problem 1E

  (5)3

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The given expression is

  (5)|36|

Calculation:

The absolute value |a| of a real number ‘a’ can be defined as

  |a|={aifa0aifa0

Therefore, the absolute value of the given expression will be

  (5)|36|=(5)|3|=(5)[(3)]=(5)3

Answer to Problem 1E

  6/(2)

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The given expression is

  |6|/(2)

Calculation:

The absolute value |a| of a real number ‘a’ can be defined as

  |a|={aifa0aifa0

Therefore, the absolute value of the given expression will be

  |6|/(2)=|6|( 2)=( 6)2=62=6/(2)
