Question : If $x=\frac{3}{2}$, then the value of $27x^{3}-54x^{2}+36x-11$ is:
Option 1: $11\frac{3}{8}$
Option 2: $11\frac{5}{8}$
Option 3: $12\frac{3}{8}$
Option 4: $12\frac{5}{8}$
Correct Answer: $12\frac{5}{8}$
Solution : Given: $27x^{3}–54x^{2}+36x–11$ Putting the value of $x=\frac{3}{2}$ in the above equation $27×(\frac{3}{2})^{3}–54×(\frac{3}{2})^{2}+36×\frac{3}{2}–11$ = $27×(\frac{27}{8})–54×(\frac{9}{4})+36×\frac{3}{2}–11$ = $\frac{729}{8}–\frac{486}{4}+\frac{108}{2}–11$ = $\frac{729–972+432–88}{8}$ = $\frac{101}{8}$ = $12\frac{5}{8}$ Hence, the correct answer is $12\frac{5}{8}$.
