Answer

Given,

⇒ log2 x = m and log5 y = n

⇒ x = 2m ……(1)

and,

⇒ y = 5n …….(2)

(i) Given,

⇒ 2m - 3

⇒ 2m.2-3

2m23\dfrac{2^m}{2^3}

Substituting value of x from equation (1) in above equation, we get :

x8\dfrac{x}{8}.

Hence, 2m - 3 = x8\dfrac{x}{8}.

(ii) Given,

⇒ 53n + 2

⇒ (5n)3.52

Substituting value of 5n from equation (2) in above equation, we get :

⇒ 25y3

Hence, 53n + 2 = 25y3.
