If \(\frac{x}4+\frac{y}3= -\frac{15}{12}\) and \(\frac{x}2+y = 1\), y then find the value of (x + y).

Answer»

The given pair of equations is

\(\frac{x}4+\frac{y}3= -\frac{15}{12}\)........(i) 

\(\frac{x}2+y = 1\)......(ii)

 Multiplying (i) by 12 and (ii) by 4, we have 

3x + 4y = 5 ……….(iii) 

2x + 4y = 4 ………(iv) 

Now, subtracting (iv) from (iii), we get 

x = 1 

Putting x = 1 in (iv), we have 

2 + 4y =4 

⇒ 4y = 2 

⇒ y = 1/2 

∴ x + y = 1 + 1/2 = 3/2 

Hence, the value of x + y is 3/2 .

A hollow cylindrical tube 20 cm long is made of iron and its external diameter is 8 cm. The volume of iron used in making the tube is 440 cm3. What is the thickness of the tube? (a) 1 cm (b) 0.5 cm (c) 2 cm (d) 1.5 cm

Answer»

(a) 1 cm

Let the internal radius of the tube be r cm. 

External radius = \(\frac82\) cm = 4 cm, 

Height = 20 cm 

∴ Volume of iron used in the tube = π(42 - r2) x 20 cm

Given, π x (16 - r2) x 20 = 440

⇒ \(\frac{22}{7}\times20\times(16-r^2) = 440\)

⇒ 16 – r2 = 7 ⇒ r2 = 16 – 7 = 9 ⇒ r = 3

∴ Thickness of tube = 4 cm – 3 cm = 1 cm.

What length of solid cylinder 2 cm in diameter must be taken to cast into a hollow cylinder of external diameter 12 cm, 0.25 cm thick and 15 cm long? (a) 44.0123 cm (b) 42.3215 cm (c) 44.0625 cm (d) 44.6023 cm

Answer»

(c) 44.0625 cm

Let h be the length (or height) of the solid cylinder 2 cm in diameter.

∴ Volume of solid cylinder = π (1)2 h = πh

External radius of hollow cylinder = 6 cm Internal radius of hollow cylinder = 6 cm – 0.25 cm = 5.75 cm 

∴ Volume of the hollow cylinder = π(62 - 5.752) x 15 

Given,π(62 - 5.752) x 15 = πh

⇒ (6 + 5.75) (6 – 5.75) × 15 = h 

⇒ h = 11.75 × 0.25 × 15 = 44.0625 cm.

The cores of three cubes are 8 cm, 6 cm and 1 cm respectively. Having melted these cubes a new cube is recastesd. Find the total surface area of the new cube recanted.

Answer»

Volume of the cube with core of 8 cm = (core)3

= 83 = 512 cm3

Volume of the cube with core 6 cm = (core)3

= (6)3 = 216 cm3.

Volume of the cube with core 1 cm = (core)3

= (1)3 = 1 cm3.

The total volume of three cubes 512 + 216 + 1 = 729 cm3.

Having melted these cubes, a new cube is recasted

∴ The volume of the cube recasted = 729 cm3

⇒ (core)3 = 729

⇒ core = \(\sqrt [ 3 ]{ 729 } \)

= (93)1/3 = 9 cm

Total surface area of cuboid recasted =6 (core)2
6 × 9 × 9 = 486 cm2.

Hence the surface area of the new cube = 486 cm2.

The flowing water through a cylindrical pipe with internal diameter 7 cm at the speed of 192.5 liter per minute is collecting in a vessel. Find the speed of water in km/h \(\left( \pi =\frac { 22 }{ 7 } \right) \)

Answer»

Given,

Diameter of cylindrical pipe = 7 cm

∴ Radius (r) = \(\frac { 7 }{ 2 }\) = 3.5 cm = 0.035 m and the volume of flowing water in one minute = 192.5 liter

∴ The volume of flowing water in one hour 

= 192.5 × 60 liter

\(\frac { 192.5\times 60 }{ 1000 } \) m3

= 11.55 m3 …….(i)

Let the speed of the water in pipe be x km./h

∴ Length of flowing water in one hour (h) = x m

∴ Volume of water flowing in one hour = πr2

\(\frac { 22 }{ 7 }\) × (0.035)2 × x

= 0.00385 × x m3 …….(ii)

From equation (i) and (ii) we get

0.00385 × x = 11.55

⇒ x = \(\frac { 11.55 }{ 0.00385 }\)

⇒ x = \(\frac { 1155000 }{ 385 }\)

⇒ x = 3000 m

\(\frac { 3000 }{ 1000 }\) km = 3 km

Hence the speed of water in the pipe = 3 km/h

= 1000 x 600 x 300 

= 18,00,00,000 cc

ii. Capacity of the tank = Volume of the tank 

= 18,00,00,000 cc = 18,00,00,000/1000 …[∵ 1 litre =1000 cc] = 1,80,000 litre

∴ The capacity of the tank is 18,00,00,000 cc and it can hold 1,80,000 litre of water.

Find the area of the sheet required to make a cylindrical container which is open at one side and whose diameter is 28 cm and height is 20 cm. Find the approximate area of the sheet required to make a lid of height 2 cm for this container.

Answer»

Given: For cylindrical container: diameter (d) = 28 cm, height (h1) = 20 cm 

For cylindrical lid: height (h2) = 2 cm 

diameter (d) = 28 cm 

∴ radius (r) = d/2 = 28/2 = 14 cm 

i. Surface area of the cylinder with one side open = Curved surface area + Area of a base 

= 2πrh1 + πr2 

= πr (2h1 + r) = (22/7) x 14 x (2 x 20 + 14) 

= 22 x 2 x (40 + 14) 

= 22 x 2 x 54 

= 2376 sq.cm

ii. Area of sheet required to made a lid = Curved surface area of lid + Area of upper surface 

= 2πrh + πr2 = πr (2h + r) 

= (22/7) x 14 x (2 x 2 + 14)

= 22 x 2 x (4 + 14) 

= 22 x 2 x 18 

= 792 sq cm 

∴ The area of the sheet required to make the cylindrical container is 2376 sq. cm and the approximate area of a sheet required to make the lid is 792 sq. cm.

How many bricks of length 25 cm, breadth 15 cm and height 10 cm are required to build a wall of length 6 m, height 2.5 m and breadth 0.5 m?

Answer»

Given: For the cuboidal shape brick: 

length (l ) = 25 cm, 

breadth (b ) = 15 cm,

height (h ) = 10 cm 

For the cuboidal shape wall: 

length (l ) = 6 m, 

height (h ) = 2.5 m, breadth (b ) = 0.5 m 

To find: Number of bricks required 

When all the bricks are arranged to build a wall, the volume of all the bricks is equal to volume of wall.

∴ Number of bricks

= volume of the wall/volume of a brick

i. Volume of a brick = l1 x b1 x h1 

= 25 x 15 x 10 cc 

ii. l2 = 6m = 6 x 100 …[∵ 1m = 100cm] = 600 cm 

h2 = 2.5 m = 2.5 x 100 = 250 cm 

b2 = 0.5 m = 0.5 x 100 = 50 cm

Volume of the wall = l2 x b2 x h2 

= 600 x 50 x 250 cc

iii. Number of bricks = volume of the wall/volume of a brick

= 600 × 50 × 250/25 × 15 × 10

= 40 x 2 x 25

= 2000 bricks 

∴ 2000 bricks are required to build the wall.

Total surface area of a cube is 5400 sq. cm. Find the surface area of all vertical faces of the cube.

Answer»

Given: Total surface area of cube = 5400 sq.cm. 

To find: Surface area of all vertical faces of the cube 

i. Total surface area of cube = 6l2

∴ 5400 = 6l2

∴ 5400/6 = l

∴ l2 = 900 

ii. Area of vertical faces of cube = 4l2 

= 4 x 900 = 3600 sq.cm. 

∴ The surface area of all vertical faces of the cube is 3600 sq.cm.

A cuboid shaped soap bar has volume 150 cc. Find its thickness if its length is 10 cm and breadth is 5 cm.

Answer»

Given: For cuboid shaped soap bar,

length (l) = 10 cm, breadth (b) = 5 cm and volume = 150 cc

To find: Thickness of the soap bar (h)

Volume of soap bar = l x b x h 

∴ 150 = 10 x 5 x h 

∴ 150 = 50 h

∴ \(\cfrac{150}{50}\) = h

∴ 3 = h 

i.e., h = 3 cm 

∴ The thickness of the soap bar is 3 cm.

Total surface area of a box of cuboid shape is 500 sq.unit. Its breadth and height is 6 unit and 5 unit respectively. What is the length of that box?

Answer»

Given: For cuboid shape box, 

breadth (b) = 6 unit, height (h) = 5 unit Total surface area = 500 sq. unit.

To find: Length of the box (l) 

Solution:

Total surface area of the box = 2 (lb + bh + lh) 

∴ 500 = 2 (6l + 6 x 5 + 5l)

∴ \(\frac{500}{2}\) = (11l + 30) 

∴ 250 = 11l + 30 

∴ 250 – 30= 11l 

∴ 220 = 11l 

∴ 220 = l 

\(\frac{220}{11}\) = l 

∴ l = 20 units 

∴ The length of the box is 20 units.

The two diagonals are equal in a :A. Parallelogram B. Rhombus C. Rectangle D. Trapezium

Answer»

Let ABCD is a rectangle 

AC and BD are the diagonals of rectangle 

In ΔABC and ΔBCD, we have 

AB = CD 

(Opposite sides of rectangle are equal) 

∠ABC = ∠BCD 

(Each equal to 90°) 

BC = BC 

(Common) 

Therefore, 

ΔABC ≅ ΔBCD 

(By SAS congruence criterion) 

AC = BD (c.p.c.t) 

Hence, 

The diagonals of a rectangle are equal.
