Correct Answer: ± 8
Explanation:
Correct Answer: If x ? y
Explanation:
x2 - 365 = 364
? x2 = 364 + 365
? x = ?729 = ± 27
and y - ?324 = ?81 ? y - 18 = 9
? y = 27
So, y ? x or x ? y because y = 27 and x = 27 and - 27.
Correct Answer: 28
Explanation:
Let, the two natural consecutive odd numbers be n and (n + 2)
Now, according to the question,
? n2 + ( n + 2 )2 = 394
? n2 + n2 + 4 + 4n = 394
? 2n2 + 4n - 390= 0
? n2 + 2n - 195 = 0
? n2 + 15n - 13n - 195 = 0
? n( n + 15 ) - 13( n + 15 ) = 0
? ( n + 15 ) ( n - 13 ) = 0
? n = 13 and n ? - 15
? The two natural consecutive odd numbers be 13 and (13 + 2) = 15 .
? the sum of the numbers = 13 + 15 = 28
Quicker Approach:
By mental operation, 132 + 152 = 169 + 225 = 394
? Required sum = 13 + 15 = 28
Correct Answer:
Explanation:
4/?x + 7/?x = ?x;
? 11/?x = ?x
? x = 11
and y2 - (11)5/2/?y = 0
? y2 = (11)5/2/(y)1/2
? y2 x y1/2 = (11)5/2
? (y)5/2 = (11)5/2
? y = 11
? x = y
Correct Answer: 31 cm
Explanation:
Required measure = HCF of 403, 434 and 465
= 31 cm
Correct Answer: 10, 6
Explanation:
Let the smaller part be x. Then the larger part = 16 ? x.
According to question , we have
2( larger part )2 - ( smaller part )2 = 164
Now , 2( 16 - x )2 - x2 = 164
? 2( 256 + x2 - 32x ) - x2 = 164
? x2 - 64x + 348 = 0
? x2 - 6x - 58x + 348 = 0
? x(x - 6) - 58(x - 6) = 0
? (x - 6) (x - 58)
x = 6 or x = 58
But m = 58 is not possible, since sum of the two parts is 16
? smaller part ( x ) = 6,
? other part = 16 - x = 16 - 6 = 10.
Hence , required answer will be option A .
Correct Answer:
Explanation:
According to question ,we can say that
?. 4x + 7y = 209 ...............( 1 )
?. 12x ? 14y = ? 38 .................... ( 2 )
Multiplying (1) by (2):
8x + 14y = 418 ................(3)
Adding (2) and (3):
20x = 380 ? x = 19
Substituting the value of x in (1), we get
76 + 7y = 209
? 7y = 133 ? y = 19
From above equations it is clear that x = y is correct answer .
Correct Answer: 34
Explanation:
Let us assume the two parts be y and (54 - y).
Then, According to question
10(54 - y) + 22y = 780
? 540 - 10y + 22y = 780
? 12y = 780 -540
? 12y = 240
? y = 20.
? Bigger part = (54 - y) = (54 - 20) = 34
Correct Answer: ? 40, ? 170
Explanation:
Let the capital of one is x and that of another is y .
According to the question.
x + 100 = 2(y - 100)
x + 100 = 2y - 200
or x - 2y = -300 ...(i)
Again, according to the question
y + 10 = 6(x - 10)
? y + 10 = 6x - 10
? 6x - y = 70 ..(ii)
On multiplying Eq. (ii) by 2 and subtracting from Eq. (i) , we get
x - 2y = -300
12x - 2y = 140
----------------
-11x = -440
? x = 40
On putting the value of x in Eq. (i) , we get
40 - 2y = -300
? 2y = 340
? y = 170
So, their capital are ? 40 and ? 170.
Correct Answer: 84 km/h
Explanation:
Total speed of car, bus and train = 72 × 3 = 216 Km
Speed of car and train = ( 5 + 9 ) x 216 / ( 5 + 9 + 4 ) = 168 Km
Average = 168 / 2 = 84 Km
