P increased his savings amount by 40 every month starting with Rs 540 for the 1st month. Q increased his savings by 30 every month starting from Rs 590 for the 1st month. Find the ratio of their savings after 8 months?1. 41 : 402. 40 : 413. 20 : 414. 41 : 31 |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 41 : 40 Given: P increased his savings amount by 40 every month starting with Rs. 540 for the 1st month. Q increased his savings by 30 every month starting from Rs. 590 for the 1st month. Formula: Ratio of Profit = ratios of product of Amount invested and time Calculation: Given, P increased his savings amount by 40 every month starting with Rs. 540 for 1st month P’s savings after 8 months = 540 + 7 × 40 = 540 + 280 = 820 Q’s savings after 8 months = 590 + 7 × 30 = 590 + 210 = 800 Required ratio = 820 : 800 ⇒ 41 : 40 ∴ The ratio of their savings after 8 months is 41 ∶ 40. |

A number lying between 1000 and 2000 is such that on division by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 leaves the remainders 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 respectively. The number is1. 18762. 17743. 16794. None of the above |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : 1679 Given: A number lying between 1000 and 2000 is such that on division by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 leaves the remainders 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 respectively Calculation: The common difference between the divisor and respective remainders = (2 - 1) = (3 - 2) = (4 - 3) =(5 - 4) = (6 - 5) = (7 - 6) = (8 - 7) = 1 LCM of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 = 840 The number = 840x - 1 The number lies between 1000 and 2000. So, x = 2 The number is = (840 × 2) - 1 1680 - 1 = 1679 ∴ The number is 1679 |

If x : 1331 :: 8 : 121, then the value of y so that 176 : x :: y : 440, Then find the ratio of x : y1. 8 : 912. 1 : 10 3. 88 : 914. 91 : 88 |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 1 : 10 Given: x : 1331 :: 8 : 121 176 : x :: y : 440 Concept Used: If a : b :: c : d then ad = bc Calculation: x : 1331 :: 8 : 121 then 121x = 1331 × 8 x = (1331 × 8)/121 = 88 ⇒ x = 88 Substituting the value of x in 176 : x :: y : 440 176 : 88 :: y : 440 176 × 440 = 88y y = (176 × 440)/88 = 880 y = 880 Ratio of x : y = 88 : 880 = 1 : 10 ∴ The ratio of x : y = 1 : 10 |

Let p and q be the roots of the quadratic equation ` x^(2) - (alpha - 2) x -alpha - 1 = 0`. What is the minimum possible value of ` p^(2) + q^(2)` ? |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - D Given equation is ` x^(2) - (alpha - 2) x - alpha - 1= 0` Sum of the roots, `p+q= alpha -2` Product of the roots pq ` =- alpha -1` Now, `p^(2) + q^(2) = (p+q)^(2) - 2pq` ` = (alpha-2)^(2) + 2 (alpha+ 1)` ` = alpha^(2) + 4 - 4alpha+2alpha+2 = (alpha-1)^(2) + 5` Hence, the minimum balue of `p^(2) + q^(2) ` will be 5 |

If one root of ` x^(2) + px+12 = 0` is 4, while the equation ` x ^(2) + px + q = 0` has equal roots, then the value of q isA. `49//4`B. ` 4//49`C. 4D. `1//4` |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - A Given ` x^(2) + px + 12 = 0` Since, x = 4 is the one root of the equation, thererfore x = 4 will satisfy this equation `:. 16 + 4p+12 = 0 rArr p =- 7` Other quadratic equation becomes `x^(2) - 7x+ q = 0` (By putting value of p) Its roots are equal, so, `b^(2) = 4ac` ` rArr 49 = 4q or q = (49)/ 4` |
