Medium MCQ +4 / -1 PYQ · JEE Mains 2023

Let $x=(8 \sqrt{3}+13)^{13}$ and $y=(7 \sqrt{2}+9)^9$. If $[t]$ denotes the greatest integer $\leq t$, then :

  1. A $[x]$ is odd but $[y]$ is even
  2. B $[x]$ and $[y]$ are both odd
  3. C $[x]+[y]$ is even Correct answer
  4. D $[x]$ is even but $[y]$ is odd

Solution

<p>If ${I_1} + f = {(8\sqrt 3 + 13)^{13}},f' = {(8\sqrt 3 - 13)^{13}}$</p> <p>${I_1} + f - f'=$ Even</p> <p>${I_1} =$ Even</p> <p>${I_2} + f - f' = {(7\sqrt 2 + 9)^9} + {(7\sqrt 2 - 9)^9}$</p> <p>= Even</p> <p>${I_2} =$ Even</p>
