Answers :
1) Answer: B
32 + 13Â + 7 = 40
40 + 23Â + 8 = 56
56 + 33Â + 9 = 92
92 + 43Â + 10 = 166
166 + 53Â + 11 = 302
2) Answer: D
1.2 * 10 = 12
12 * 9 = 108
108 * 8 = 864
864 * 7 = 6048
6048 * 6 = 36288
3) Answer: C
67 + 6 + 7 = 80
80 + 8 + 0 = 88
88 + 8 + 8 = 104
104 + 1 + 0+4 = 109
109 + 1 + 0 + 9 = 119
4) Answer: A
96 + 182Â = 420
420 – 172 = 131
131 + 162Â = 387
387 – 152 = 162
162 + 142Â = 358
5) Answer: C
1 + (5 * 1) = 6
6 + (5 * 3) = 21
21 + (5 * 5) = 46
46 + (5 * 7) = 81
81 + (5 * 9) = 126
6) Answer: A
(27 ÷ 594) * (33 ÷ 405) * ?* 8 = √576
? * 8 = 6480
? = 810
7) Answer: C
x2– 5x + 6 = 0
x2 – 3x – 2x + 6 = 0
x(x – 3) – 2(x – 3) = 0
(x – 2)(x – 3) = 0
x = 2, 3
2y2Â – 12y + 16 = 0
2y2– 8y – 4y + 16 = 0
2y(y – 4) – 4(y – 4) = 0
(2y- 4)(y – 4) = 0
y = 2, 4
Relationship between x and y cannot be established.
8) Answer: A
Speed of the boat = x
102/(x – 4) – 140/(x + 4) = 7
102x + 408 – 140x + 560 = 7x2 – 112
7x2 + 38x – 1080 = 0
x = 10kmph
9) Answer: A
Length of train A = x
x + 300 = 90 * 5/18 * 20
x = 200 m
Length of train B = 9/10 * 200 = 180 m
Speed of train B = 100/120 * 90 = 75 kmph
Required time = (320 + 180)/(75 * 5/18) = 24 seconds
10) Answer: B
Distance = speed * time
Distance = (40 * 50 * 15/60)/10
= 50 km
