Answers :

Direction (1-5) :

1) Answer: a)

I) x = √(12875 – 3271)

X = √9604 = 98

II) y = ∛474552

Y = 78

X > y

2) Answer: e)

I) x² – 6x – 72 = 0

(x – 12) (x + 6) = 0

X = 12, – 6

II) y² + 3y – 88 = 0

(y + 11) (y – 8) = 0

Y = -11, 8

Can’t be determined

3) Answer: d)

I) 3x² + 26x + 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) 2y² + 15y + 28 = 0

2y² + 8y + 7y + 28 = 0

2y(y + 4) + 7 (y + 4) = 0

(2y + 7) (y + 4) = 0

Y = -7/2, -4 = -3.5, -4

X ≤ y

4) Answer: c)

4x – 5y = -12 –à (1)

3x + 4y = 53 –à (2)

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

X = 7, y = 8

X < y

5) Answer: e)

I) x² – 17x + 52 = 0

(x -14) (x – 3) = 0

X = 14, 3

II) y² – 5y – 66 = 0

(y – 11) (y + 6) = 0

Y = 11, -6

Can’t be determined

Direction (6-10) :

6) Answer: c)

The total number of voter id holders from Mumbai in the year 2013 and 2015 together

= > 132000 + 136000 = 268000

The total number of voter id holders from Chennai in the year 2012 and 2016 together

= > 116000 + 140000 = 256000

Required difference = 268000 – 256000 = 12000

7) Answer: a)

The total number of voter id holders in the year 2015 in both the cities together

= > 136000 + 132000 = 268000

The total number of voter id holders in the year 2017 in both the cities together

= > 152000 + 160000 = 312000

Required ratio = 268000: 312000 = 67: 78

8)Answer: d)

The total number of voter id holders in the year 2013 in both the cities together

= > 132000 + 124000 = 256000

The total number of voter id holders in the year 2016 in both the cities together

= > 148000 + 140000 = 288000

Required % = (256000/288000)*100 = 88.88 % = 90 %

9) Answer: c)

The total number of voter id holders in the year 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015 together in Mumbai

= > 124000 + 132000 + 120000 + 136000 = 512000

Required average = 512000/4 = 128000

10) Answer: a)

The total number of voter id holders in Chennai in the year 2012 and 2017 together

= > 116000 + 160000 = 276000

The total number of voter id holders in the year 2014 in both the cities together

= > 120000 + 140000 = 260000

Required % = [(276000 – 260000)/260000]*100 = 6 % more
