Answers :
1) Answer: a)
I) 7x – 5y = 4x – 3y
7x – 4x – 5y + 3y = 0
3x – 2y = 0 –à (1)
II) 8x – 7y + 1 = 3x – 4y
8x – 3x – 7y + 4y = -1
5x – 3y = -1 –à (2)
By solving the equation (1) and (2), we get,
x = – 2, y = -3
X > y
2) Answer: e)
I) x2 + 24x + 128 = 0
(x + 16) (x + 8) = 0
X = -16, -8
II) y2 + 23y + 132 = 0
(y + 12) (y + 11) = 0
Y = -12, -11
Can’t be determined
3) Answer: c)
I) x2 + 14x + 48 = 0
(x + 6) (x + 8) = 0
X = -6, -8
II) y2 – 6y – 55 = 0
(y – 11) (y + 5) = 0
Y = 11, -5
x < y
4) Answer: c)
I) 3x2 + 14x +15 = 0
3x2 + 9x + 5x + 15 = 0
3x (x + 3) + 5 (x + 3) = 0
(3x + 5) (x + 3) = 0
x= -5/3, -3
II) 3y2 – 13y + 14 = 0
3y2 – 6y – 7y +14 = 0
3y (y – 2) -7 (y – 2) = 0
(3y – 7) (y – 2) = 0
y= 7/3, 2
x < y
5) Answer: e)
I) x2 – x – 132 = 0
(x – 12) (x + 11) = 0
X = 12, -11
II) y2 – 11y + 30 = 0
(y – 5) (y – 6) = 0
Y = 5, 6
Can’t be determined
6) Answer: b)
The total number of projects done by company P in all the given years together
= > 75 + 80 + 95 + 60 + 90 = 400
The total number of projects done by company R in all the given years together
= > 90 + 105 + 95 + 100 + 85 = 475
Required difference = 475 – 400 = 75
7) Answer: d)
The total number of projects done by all the given companies in the year 2013
= > 75 + 60 + 90 + 55 + 40 = 320
The total number of projects done by all the given companies in the year 2015
= > 95 + 85 + 95 + 65 + 75 = 415
Required ratio = 320 : 415 = 64 : 83
8) Answer: a)
Total number of projects done by company Q in all the given years together
= > 60 + 70 + 85 + 75 + 80 = 370
Total number of projects done by company S in all the given years together
= > 55 + 70 + 65 + 75 + 90 = 355
Required % = (370/355)*100 = 104 %
9) Answer: c)
The average number of projects done by all the given companies together in the year 2014
= > (80 + 70 + 105 + 70 + 60)/5
= > 385/5 = 77
10) Answer: b)
Total number of projects done by company T in all the given years together
= > 40 + 60 + 75 + 80 + 95 = 350
Total number of projects done by all the given companies in the year 2017
= > 90 + 80 + 85 + 90 + 95 = 440
Required % = [(440 – 350)/440]*100 = 20.45 % = 20 % less
