d) If x ≤ y

e) If x = y or the relation cannot be established

1)

I) 3x2 – 10x – 77 = 0

II) 4y2 + 2y – 56 = 0

2)

I) 3x – 4y = 4

II) 2x + 5y = 18

3)

I) x2 – 52 = 168 ÷ 3

II) y2 – 7x + 12 = 0

4)

I) 2x2 + 10x + 12 = 0

II) 3y2 + 11y + 10 = 0

5)

I) x2 – 6x – 27 = 0

II) y2 – 7y – 33 = 0

Directions (Q. 6 – 10): Study the following information carefully and answer the given questions:

e) 22 % less

Answers:

1) Answer: e)

I) 3x2 – 10x – 77 = 0

3x2 – 21x + 11x – 77 = 0

3x (x – 7) + 11 (x – 7) = 0

(3x + 11) (x – 7) = 0

X = -11/3, 7 = -3.667, 7

II) 4y2 + 2y – 56 = 0

4y2 + 16y – 14y – 56 = 0

4y (y + 4) – 14 (y + 4) = 0

(4y – 14) (y + 4) = 0

Y = 14/4, -4 = 3.5, -4

Can’t be determined

2) Answer: a)

3x – 4y = 4 —> (1)

2x + 5y = 18 —> (2)

By solving the equation (1) and (2), we get,

X = 4, y = 2

X > y

3) Answer: e)

I) x2 – 52 = 168 ÷ 3

(x2 – 25) = (168/3)

x2 = 56 + 25 = 81

x = 9, -9

II) y2 – 7x + 12 = 0

(y – 4) (y – 3) = 0

Y = 4, 3

Can’t be determined

4) Answer: d)

I) 2x2 + 10x + 12 = 0

2x2 + 4x + 6x + 12 = 0

2x (x + 2) + 6(x + 2) = 0

(2x + 6) (x + 2) = 0

X = -6/2, -2 = -3, -2

II) 3y2 + 11y + 10 = 0

3y2 + 6y + 5y + 10 = 0

3y (y + 2) + 5 (y + 2) = 0

(3y + 5) (y + 2) = 0

Y = -5/3, -2 = -1.667, -2

X ≤ y

5) Answer: e)

I) x2 – 6x – 27 = 0

(x – 9) (x + 3) = 0

X = 9, -3

II) y2 – 7y – 33 = 0

(y – 11) (y + 3) = 0

Y = 11, -3

Can’t be determined

Directions (6-10):

6) Answer: b)

The total number of Fossil watches sold in all the given months together

= > 150 + 100 + 120 = 370

The total number of Casio watches sold in all the given months together

= > 80 + 110 + 140 = 330

Required ratio = 370: 330 = 37: 33

7) Answer: a)

The average number of watches sold in the month of Oct

= > (150 + 80 + 130 + 160 + 100)/5 = 620/5 = 124

The average number of watches sold in the month of Dec

= > (120 + 140 + 110 + 170 + 180)/5 = 720/5 = 144

Required difference = 144 – 124 = 20

8) Answer: d)

The average number of watches sold in the month of Nov

= > (100 + 110 + 150 + 90 + 120)/5

= > 570/5 = 114

9) Answer: b)

Total number of Fastrack watches sold in all the given months together

= > 130 + 150 + 110 = 390

Total number of Rolex watches sold in all the given months together

= > 100 + 120 + 180 = 400

Required % = (390/400)*100 = 97.5 %

10) Answer: c)

Total number of watches sold in the month of Dec

= > 120 + 140 + 110 + 170 + 180 = 720

Total number of Fossil and Rolex watches sold in all the given months together

= > 150 + 100 + 120 + 100 + 120 + 180 = 770

Required % = [(770 – 720)/770]*100 = 6.49 % = 6 % less
