设 $U=2\cdot 2004^{2005}$,$V=2004^{2005}$,$W=2003\cdot 2004^{2004}$,$X=2\cdot 2004^{2004}$,$Y=2004^{2004}$,$Z=2004^{2003}$。以下哪个最大?
(A)
$U - V$
$U - V$
(B)
$V - W$
$V - W$
(C)
$W - X$
$W - X$
(D)
$X - Y$
$X - Y$
(E)
$Y - Z$
$Y - Z$
Answer
Correct choice: (A)
正确答案:(A)
Solution
\begin{eqnarray*} U-V&=&2004*2004^{2004}\\ V-W&=&1*2004^{2004}\\ W-X&=&2001*2004^{2004}\\ X-Y&=&1*2004^{2004}\\ Y-Z&=&2003*2004^{2003} \end{eqnarray*}
After comparison, $U-V$ is the largest. $\mathrm {(A)}$
\begin{eqnarray*} U-V&=&2004*2004^{2004}\\ V-W&=&1*2004^{2004}\\ W-X&=&2001*2004^{2004}\\ X-Y&=&1*2004^{2004}\\ Y-Z&=&2003*2004^{2003} \end{eqnarray*}
比较后,$U-V$ 最大。$\mathrm {(A)}$
