Correct Answer: 25 and 25
Explanation:
Total number of coins = 50
Let ? 1 coins = x and ? 2 coins = y
Now,according to the question,
x + y = 50 ... (i)
and x + 2y = 75 ...(ii)
On solving Eqs.(i) and (ii),we get
x = 25 and y = 25
Correct Answer: 90
Explanation:
Let the number of gold coins initially be x and the number of non-gold coins be y.
According to the question, 3x = y .....(i)
When 10 more gold coins are added, then total number of gold coins becomes x + 10 and the number of non-gold coins remain the same as y.
Now,we have 2(10 + x) = y ....(ii)
On solving these two equations, we get x = 20 and y = 60
? Total number of coins in the collection at the end is equal to x + 10 + y = 20 + 10 + 60 = 90.
Correct Answer: Rs. 25
Explanation:
Let the original price of the book be Rs. x.
? Number of books bought for Rs.200 = 200/x
and reduced price of the book=Rs.(x - 5)
? Number of books bought for Rs.200 = 200/(x - 5)
Now, according to the condition,
200/(x - 5) - 200/x = 2
? (200x - 200x + 1000)/(x - 5)x = 2
? (200x - 200x + 1000)/x(x - 5) = 2
? 1000/x(x - 5) = 2
? 1000/x(x - 5) = 1
? 1000/x(x - 5) = 2
? 500/x(x - 5) = 1
? 500 = x(x-5)
? x2 -5x - 50 = 0
? x2- 25 + 20x - 500 = 0
? x(x - 25) + 20(x - 25) = 0
? (x - 25)(x + 20) = 0
? x - 25 = 0 or x + 20 = 0
? x = 25 0r -20
? x = 25 (since,x cannot be negatives)
So, the original price of the bok is Rs.25.
Correct Answer: 4
Explanation:
x3 + 1 + 2x = 6x + 1/x
x3 + 1 + 2x = (6x2 + 1) / x
(x3 + 1 + 2x)x = 6x22 + 1
x4 + x + 2x2 - 6x2 - 1 = 0
x4 - 4x2 + x - 1 = 0
Degree of polynomial is highest exponent degree term i. e., 4.
Correct Answer: ? 12
Explanation:
Let the length of the piece be L m.
Then,rate per metre = ? 120/L
New length = (L + 2) m
Since, the cost remains same.
? New rate per metre =Rs.120/(L + 2)
According to the given condition, 120/L - 120/(L + 2) = 2
? [120(L + 2) - 120L]/L(L + 2) = 2
? [120L + 240 - 120L] / L(L + 2) = 2
? [120L + 240 -120L] / L(L + 2) = 2
? 240/L(L + 2) = 2
? 240 = 2L(L + 2)
? 120 = L(L + 2) = L2 + 2L
? L2 + 2L - 120 = 0
? L2 + 12L - 10L - 120 = 0
? L(L + 12) - 10 x (L + 12) = 0
? (L + 12)(L - 10) = 0
? L + 12 = 0 or L - 10 = 0
? L = -12 or 10
? L = 10(since, L cannot be negative)
? Original rate per metre of cloth = 120/L = 120/10 = ? 12
Correct Answer: 100
Explanation:
Let Arjun had x arrows.
? x/2 + 6 + 3 + 4?x + 1 = x
? x = 20 + 8?x
? x - 20 =8?x
On squaring both sides and by solving the formed quadratics equation, we get x = 100
Correct Answer: Rs. 58
Explanation:
Let the cost of each apple,orange nd pear be Rs.x,y and z, respectively.Then,
2x + 3y + z = 62 ...(i)
5x + 6y + 4z = 20 ...(ii)
On subtracting Eq.(i)from Eq.(ii), we get
3x + 3y + 3z = 58
So, the cost of 3 apple,3 oranges and 3 pears is Rs. 58.
Correct Answer: -3, -4 and x2 + 7x + 12
Explanation:
When p is wrong i.e., -b/a = (? + ?) is wrong but c/a =(??) is correct.
Then ?? = c/a = 2 x 6 = 12 ....(i)
Again, when q is wrong i.e.,c/a = (?.? ) is wrong but -b/a = ?+? is correct.
Then, -b/a = ?+?= 2 + (-9) = -7
So, the required correct quadratic equations is
x2 -(? + ?)x + ?.?=0
? x2 - (-7)x + 12 = 0
? x2 + 7x + 12 = 0
and correct roots this equations are -3, -4.
Correct Answer: 32
Explanation:
The required greatest number is the HCF of 263-7, 935-7, 1383-7
i.e. 256, 928 and 1376 HCF = 32
Correct Answer: b + 2c = 2a + d
Explanation:
If (x+2) is the HCF of x2 + ax + b and x2 + cx + d.
Then, (-2)2 -2a +b = (-2)2 -2c + d
b + 2c = 2a + d
