    Question

    Find the value of (14)2+(18)2+(15)2\left( \frac{1}{4} \right)^{-2} + \left( \frac{1}{8} \right)^{-2} + \left( \frac{1}{5} \right)^{-2}​​

    A.

    Correct option is A

    Given:

    (14)2+(18)2+(15)2\left( \frac{1}{4} \right)^{-2} + \left( \frac{1}{8} \right)^{-2} + \left( \frac{1}{5} \right)^{-2}​​

    Concept Used:

    (1a)n=an\left( \frac{1}{a} \right)^{-n} = a^n 

    Solution: 

    (14)2+(18)2+(15)2 =(4)2+(8)2+(5)2 =16+64+25 =105\left( \frac{1}{4} \right)^{-2} + \left( \frac{1}{8} \right)^{-2} + \left( \frac{1}{5} \right)^{-2} \\ \ \\ = \left( {4} \right)^{2} + \left({8} \right)^{2} + \left({5} \right)^{2}\\ \ \\ = 16 +64+25 \\ \ \\ = 105​​
