If a^x = b^y = a^z and a^3 = b^2 c, ...

If `a^x = b^y = a^z` and `a^3 = b^2 c`, then `3/x - 2/y =`

A

`x/y`

B

`y/x`

C

`xyz`

D

`1/z`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

(i) Lest each of the three given terms be equal to K.
(ii) Use `a^(3)+b^(3)=(a+b) (a^(2)-ab+b^(2))` to simplify.
