Correct Answer: 60
Correct Answer: 10
Correct Answer: Only I and II
Correct Answer: Rs.300
Correct Answer: 758
Correct Answer: Rs. 8000
Explanation:
Let the amount at 6% be x
Amount at 10% be (10000 ?x)
At 9.2 % interest, SI = 10000 X 9.2 X 1/100 = 920
Amount = 10920
? 6x/100 + (10000 ? x)10/100 = 920
? 6x ? 10x + 100000 = 92000
? 4x = 8000
? x = 2000
Money lent at 10 % = 10000 ? 2000 = 8000
Correct Answer: 2
Correct Answer: 8
Correct Answer: x2 ? 2 x + 4 = 0
Correct Answer: 12 percent
