A. 5.59
B. 7.826
C. 8.944
D. 10.062
Answer: Option B
Solution(By Examveda Team)
$$\eqalign{ & \frac{{\sqrt 5 }}{2} - \frac{{10}}{{\sqrt 5 }} + \sqrt {125} \, \cr & = \frac{{{{\left( {\sqrt 5 } \right)}^2} - 20 + 2\sqrt 5 \times 5\sqrt 5 }}{{2\sqrt 5 }} \cr & = \frac{{5 - 20 + 50}}{{2\sqrt 5 }} \cr & = \frac{{35}}{{2\sqrt 5 }} \times \frac{{\sqrt 5 }}{{\sqrt 5 }} \cr & = \frac{{35\sqrt 5 }}{{10}} \cr & = \frac{{7 \times 2.236}}{2} \cr & = 7 \times 1.118 \cr & = 7.826 \cr} $$Related Questions on Square Root and Cube Root
