Answers :
Direction (1-5) :
1) Answer: d)
I) 3x2 + 13x + 14 = 0
3x2 + 6x + 7x + 14 = 0
3x(x + 2) + 7(x + 2) = 0
(3x + 7) (x + 2) = 0
X = -7/3, -2 = -2.33, -2
II) 9y2 + 29y + 22 = 0
9y2+ 18y + 11y + 22 = 0
9y(y + 2) + 11(y + 2) = 0
(9y + 11) (y + 2) = 0
Y = -11/9, -2 = -1.22, -2
x ≤ y
2) Answer: e)
I) 4x2 – x – 18 = 0
4x2 + 8x – 9x – 18 = 0
4x (x + 2) -9 (x + 2) = 0
(4x – 9) (x + 2) = 0
X = 9/4, -2 = 2.25, -2
II) 5y2 + 11y – 12 = 0
5y2 + 15y – 4y – 12 = 0
5y (y + 3) -4 (y + 3) = 0
(5y – 4) (y + 3) = 0
Y = 4/5, -3 = 0.8, -3
Can’t be determined
3) Answer: e)
I) 5x2 – 6x – 8 = 0
5x2 – 10x + 4x – 8 = 0
5x(x – 2) + 4(x – 2) = 0
(5x + 4) (x – 2) = 0
X = -4/5, 2 = -0.8, 2
II) 4y2 + 8y – 5 = 0
4y2 – 2y + 10y – 5 = 0
2y (2y – 1) + 5(2y – 1) = 0
(2y + 5) (2y – 1) = 0
Y = -5/2, ½ = -2.5, 0.5
Can’t be determined
4) Answer: e)
I) 3x2 – 2x – 56 = 0
3x2 + 12x – 14x – 56 = 0
3x(x + 4) – 14(x + 4) = 0
(3x – 14) (x + 4) = 0
X = 14/3, -4 = 4.667, -4
II) 5y2 + 8y – 48 = 0
5y2 + 20y – 12y – 48 = 0
5y(y + 4) -12(y + 4) = 0
(5y – 12) (y + 4) = 0
Y = 12/5, -4 = 2.4, -4
Can’t be determined
5) Answer: a)
3x – y = -3 –à (1)
5x + 6y = -28 –à (2)
By solving the equation (1) and (2), we get,
X = -2, y = -3
X > y
Direction (6-10) :
6) Answer: c)
The cost price of article P
= > 325*(100/130) = Rs. 250
The cost price of article U
= > 275*(100/125) = Rs. 220
Required % = [(250 – 220)/220]*100 = 14 % more
7) Answer: a)
Manoj’s selling price = Rs. 196
Manoj’s cost price = 196*(100/140) = Rs. 140
Profit earned by Manoj = 196 – 140 = Rs. 56
Keerthi’s cost price = Rs. 196
Keerthi’s selling price = 196*(125/100) = Rs. 245
Profit earned by Keerthi = 245 – 196 = Rs. 49
Required difference = 56 – 49 = Rs. 7
8) Answer: d)
Cost price of article Q = 144*(100/120) = Rs. 120
Article Q’s marked price = C.P + 60 = 120 + 60 = Rs. 180
Discount = Marked price – Selling price = 180 – 144 = Rs. 36
Discount % = (Discount/MP)*100 = (36/180)*100 = 20 %
9) Answer: b)
Cost price of article P = 325*(100/130) = Rs. 250
Cost price of article Q = 144*(100/120) = Rs. 120
Cost price of article R = 192*(100/128) = Rs. 150
Cost price of article S = 196*(100/140) = Rs. 140
The average cost price of the article P, Q, R and S together
= > (250 + 120 + 150 + 140)/4
= > 660/4 = Rs. 165
10) Answer: c)
The profit earned on selling the article P
= > 325*(100/130)*(30/100) = Rs. 75
The profit earned on selling the article T
= > 145*(100/116)*(16/100) = Rs. 20
Required % = (75/20)*100 = 375 %
