Answers :

Direction (1-5) :

1) Answer: d)

x2 + 31x + 240 = 0

x2 + 15x + 16x + 240 = 0

x(x + 15) + 16(x + 15) = 0

(x + 16)(x + 15) = 0

x = -16, -15

y2 – 9y – 90 = 0

y2 – 15y + 6y – 90 = 0

y(y – 15) + 6(y – 15) = 0

(y + 6)(y – 15) = 0

y = -6, 15

Hence x<y

2) Answer: b)

x2 – 0.58x + 0.084 = 0

x2 – 0.28x – 0.30x + 0.084 = 0

x(x – 0.28) – 0.30(x – 0.28) = 0

(x – 0.30)(x – 0.28) = 0

x = 0.30, 0.28

y2 – 0.48y + 0.056 = 0

y2 – 0.28y – 0.20y + 0.056 = 0

y(y – 0.28) – 0.20(y – 0.28) = 0

(y – 0.28)(y – 0.20) = 0

y = 0.28, 0.20

Hence x ≥ y

3) Answer: e)

x2 – x – 72 = 0

x2 – 9x + 8x – 72 = 0

x(x – 9) + 8(x – 9) = 0

(x + 8)(x – 9) = 0

x = -8, 9

y2 – 19y + 90 = 0

y2 – 10y – 9y + 90 = 0

y(y – 10) – 9(y – 10) = 0

(y – 9)(y – 10) = 0

y = 9, 10

Hence x ≤ y

4) Answer: b)

x = 89%

x = 89/100 = 0.89

y2 – y + 0.0979 = 0

y2 – 0.89y – 0.11y + 0.0979 = 0

y(y – 0.89) – 0.11(y – 0.89) = 0

(y – 0.11)(y – 0.89) = 0

y = 0.11, 0.89

Hence x ≥ y

5) Answer: e)

x3 = 216

x = 6

y2 – 13y + 42 = 0

y2 – 6y – 7y + 42 = 0

y(y – 6) – 7(y – 6) = 0

(y – 7)(y – 6) = 0

y = 7, 6

Hence x ≤ y

Direction (6-10) :

6) Answer: e)

Total number of students in class V = 88*4= 352

Let the number of students in section D be x

Section B= x*120/100= 6x/5

So,

x+6x/5+ 60+39= 352

11x/5= 352-99

11x/5= 253

x= 253*5/11

x= 115

Number of students in section B= 6*115/5= 138

Required ratio= 138:100= 69:50

7) Answer: c)

Let the let the number of students initially in section C be x

Now,

Number of students in section C = x+20

60/x+20 = 4/5

300= 4x+80

220= 4x

x= 55

8) Answer: d)

Total weight of all students= 50*160= 8000 kg

So,

96*x + 64(x-10) = 8000

96x + 64x – 640= 8000

160x= 8000+640

x= 8640/160

x= 54 kg

Average weight of section C = 54 -10= 44 kg

Total weight if we include weight of the teacher

= (44*64) + 44 = 2816 + 44 = 2860 kg

Required average weight= 2860/65= 44 kg

9) Answer: a)

Let the number of students in section D of class VII and VIII be x and y respectively

So,

(80+90+16+x) + (85+30+45+y) = 620

186+x+160+y = 620

x + y = 620- 346

x + y = 274

Required average = 274/2 = 137

10) Answer: e)

Number of students in section C of class X= 45*4/5= 36

Number of students in section A of class X= 36*150/100= 54

Required average= (54+50+36+100)/4 = 240/4 = 60 students
