Positive number x, y and z satisfy x y z=10^ 81 and ( _ 10 x)( _ 10...
Positive number and satisfy and
Correct answer
75
Step-by-step solution
\begin{aligned}
(a+b+c)^2 & =a^2+b^2+c^2+2(a b+a c+b c) \\
\left(\log _{10} x\right)\left(\log _{10} y z\right) & =\left(\log _{10} x\right)\left(\log _{10} y+\log _{10} z\right) \\
& =\log _{10} x \log _{10} y+\log _{10} x \log _{10} z \\
\text { and } \quad x y z & =10^{81} \text { implies } \log _{10} x+\log _{10} y+\log _{10} z=81
\end{aligned}
and
Using the property mentioned first, we get
\begin{aligned}
& \left(\log _{10} x\right)^2+\left(\log _{10} y\right)^2+\left(\log _{10} z\right)^2 \\
& =\left(\log _{10} x+\log _{10} y+\log _{10} z\right)^2-2\left(\log _{10} x \cdot \log _{10} y+\log _{10} x \cdot \log _{10} z+\log _{10} y \cdot \log _{10} z\right) \\
& \sqrt{\left(\log _{10} x\right)^2+\left(\log _{10} y\right)^2+\left(\log _{10} z\right)^2}=\sqrt{(81)^2-2 \times 468} \\
& \sqrt{\left(\log _{10} x\right)^2+\left(\log _{10} y\right)^2+\left(\log _{10} z\right)^2}=75
\end{aligned}
