2.

two number X and Y are respectively 20% and 28% less than third number Z. By what percentage is the number Y less than the number X?

Answer»

LET z = 100
Then x = 80
y = 72
Yis LESS by x = 8
% = 8*100/80

3.

Check whether 2^n can end with the digit 6 for any n €N

Answer»

2^1 (mod 10) = 2

2^2 (mod 10) = 4

2^3 (mod 10) = 8

2^4 (mod 10) = 6

2^5 (mod 10) = 2

It's clear that the units DIGITS of the POWERS of TWO repeat in this pattern. Thus, no power of two will have a units DIGIT of 6.

5.

The perimeter of a right angle triangle is 30 cm and it's hypotenuse is 13 cm .find the other two side

Answer»

Sum of other TWO SIDES = 30 - 13 = 17 cm

Then, let the sides as ( x ) and ( 17 - x )

By PYTHAGORAS theorem,

( x )² + ( 17 - x )² = 13²

x² + 289 + x² - 34x = 169

2x² + 120 - 34x = 0

x² - 17x + 60 = 0

x² - 12x - 5x +60 = 0

x( x - 12 ) + 5( x - 12 ) = 0

( x - 12 )( x + 5 ) = 0

By Zero Product Rule,

x = 12 [ positive value ]

Other side = 17 - 12 = 5 cm

.

Other sides = 12 cm and 5 cm

If x=2 and x=5 are roots of px^2-7x+5f=0, find the value of p and f

Answer»

If 2 and 5 are solutions to the polynomial, the polynomial must be divisible by

(x - 2) and (x - 5). Since it's a quadratic, the polynomial must then be

a(x - 2)(x - 5)

Where "a" is some constant. EXPANDING, we get:

a(x - 2)(x - 5) = ax^2 -7ax + 10a

This is supposed to be EQUIVALENT to the original:

ax^2 -7ax + 10a = px^2 - 7x + 5f

From this, it becomes OBVIOUS that a = 1, p = 1, and F = 2.

The amount of a certain principal is ₹6655 in 3 years, compounded annually at the rate of 10 p.c.p.a. Find the principal.

Answer»

Let PRINCIPAL is P
interest rate , r = 10 % PER annual
time PERIOD , n = 3
Amount , A = 6655

USE formula , A = P(1 + r/100)ⁿ
6655 = P(1 + 10/100)³
6655 = P(1 + 1/10)³ = P(11/10)³
6655 = P(1331/1000)
6655 × 1000/1331 = P
P = 6655 × 1000/1331 = 5000

HENCE, principal is ₹ 5000

If the product of two numbers is 320 and their ratio 1:5, then the sum of these two numbers is(a) 42 (b) 48(c) 44 (d) 40

Answer»

Let the NUMBERS are ( x ) and ( 5x )

Given, their product = 320

x × 5x = 320

\rightarrow5 {x}^{2} = 320 \\ \\ \rightarrow \: {x}^{2} = \frac{320}{5} \\ \\ \rightarrow {x}^{2} = 64 \\ \\ x = 8 \: \: or \: \: - 8

SUM of numbers [ taking NEGATIVE values ]

x + 5x
=> ( - 8 ) + 5( - 8 )
=> -48

Sum of numbers [ taking positive values ]

=> x + 5x
=> 8 + 5(8)
=> 48





Neglect negative value, their sum = 48

A 100 metre long train crosses a telephone pole in 10 seconds. Find the speed of the train.(a) 36 km/hour (b) 33 km/hour(c) 31 km/hour (d) 37 km/hour

Answer»
here \: is \: your \: answer
th e \: correct \:answer \: is \: 36kmh


Let consider that ,

↪the pole as a POINT, and the length of the TRAIN is 100m,

↪And we know that it crosses that pole in 10s.

distance = 100m

time = 10 s

now ,

to find the velocity we can USE the formula ,

velocity =  \frac{distance}{time}

velocity = 100 / 10 = 10 m/s

by converting m/s to km/hr ,

=》 10×18/5 = 36km/h.

In a class the average age of 30 students is 15 years. If the teacher is included then the average age is increased by one year. Find the age of the teacher.(a) 40 years (b) 45 years(c) 46 years (d) 48 years

Answer»

Average = ( SUM of quantities ) / ( number of quantities )



Now,

15 = ( sum of 30 ages ) / 30

450 = sum of 30 ages





When the AGE of TEACHER is included, average increases by 1

ATQ,


16 = ( 450 + age of teacher ) / 31

496 = 450 +age of teacher

46 = age of teacher





Option is correct.

Rehana purchased a scooter in the year 2015 for ₹60000. If its value falls by 20% every year what will be the price of scooter after 2 years ?

Answer»

Initial AMOUNT = 60,000
falling rate per year = 20%
DECREMENT of amount in 1st year =20 % of 60,000
= 20 × 60,000/100 = 20 × 600 = 12,000
now, rest amount = 60,000 - 12,000
= 48,000

decrement of amount in 2nd year = 20% of 48,000
= 20 × 48,000/100 = 20 × 480
= 9,600
now, rest amount = 48,000 - 9,600
= 38,400 Rs

hence, price of scooter after TWO YEARS = 38,400 Rs.

The population of a city increases at compounding rate of 8% per year. Find the population in the year 2012 if population in the year 2010 was 2,50,000.

Answer»

The population of a city increases at compounding rate of 8 %
e.g., interest rate , r = 8 %
period , n = 2012 - 2010 = 2 YRS
population in the YEAR 2010 was 2,50,000
e.g., P = 2,50,000

USE formula, \bf{A= P\left[\begin{array}{c}1+\frac{r}{100}\end{array}\right]^n}
A = 2,50,000 × (1 + 8/100)²
= 2,50,000 × (1.08)²
= 2,50,000 × 1.08 × 1.08
= 2,91,600

hence, population in the year 2012 = 2,91,600

If 9* 3 + 8 = 24, 10 * 2 + 7 = 35 and 80 * 40 + 3 = 6, then find the value of 12 * 4 + 3(a) 7 (b) 9(c) 12 (d) 16

Answer»

Here is your solution :

If,

Case 1,

⇒ 9 × 3 + 8 = 24

Just change ( × into ÷ ) and ( + into × )

⇒ 9 ÷ 3 × 8 = 24

⇒ 3 × 8 = 24

•°• 24 = 24

Case 2,

10 × 2 + 7 = 35

⇒ 10 ÷ 2 × 7 = 35

⇒ 5 × 7 = 35

•°• 35 = 35

Case 3,

⇒ 80 × 40 + 3 = 6

⇒ 80 ÷ 40 × 3 = 6

⇒ 2 × 3 = 6

•°• 6 = 6

In all three cases we got that if we convert the sign of Multiplication in Division and sign of Addition in Multiplication then it satisfies the given equation.

So,

= 12 × 4 + 3

= 12 ÷ 4 × 3

= 3 × 3

= 9

Hence , the required answer is 9.

x= 150 * 100/75
x= 200

Pass % Marks = 80*100/200
= 40%

Why is the percent increase from 45 to 75 not equal to the percent decrease from 75 to 45? Check all that apply. The amount of change is different for the percent increase and the percent decrease. The ratio of the percent increase is not the same as the percent decrease. The ratio for the percent increase has a smaller denominator than the percent decrease. The ratio for the percent increase has a different numerator than the percent decrease. The ratio of the percent increase is the same as the percent decrease. The original amount for the percent increase is different from the original amount for the percent decrease.

What is Compound Interest? Can you explain each term in the formula used to calculate compound interest?

Answer»

Hi ,

In simple interest the principal remains the

same throughout the period.

Some times the interest is added to principal

and the TOTAL amount is takes as principal

for the next year. Thus both principal and

interest on SUCCESSIVE years keep on

INCREASING . This KIND of calculation is named

as Compound Interest.

************************************************

A = P( 1 + R/100 )ⁿ

where ,

P = Principal ,

A = amount

R = rate of interest for the period of one

computation

n = Number of times that interest has to be

computed

Formula for Compound Interest

C.I = A - P

= P( 1 + R/100 )ⁿ - P

These are the postulates of congruency under which, if two TRIANGLES have the below as congruent then the two triangles are congruent.

(1) S-A-S teststands for SIDE Angle Side according to which if two sides and angle of one triangle is congruent to that of the other than the two triangles are congruent to each other.

Similarly, (2) S-S-S teststands for Side Side Side and (3) A-S-A test stands forAngle Side Angle and (4) A-A-S test stands forAngle Angle Side and (5) Hypotenuse - side test MEANS we can say that two triangles are congruent if the hypotenuse and any one side of the triangle are respectively congruent to that of the other triangle.

Rahul was 4 times old as his son 8 years back and he will be 2 times old as his son after 8 years. calculate rahul and his sons age

Answer» LET the RAHUL present AGE be x years and his son age be y years.
eight years before
Rahul age = x - 8
His son' s age = y - 8
Therefore, x - 8 = 4 ( y - 8 )
x - 8 = 4y - 32
4y - x = 24..........…......….(i)
Eight years after,
Rahul age = x + 8
His son age = y + 8
Therefore, x + 8 = 2 ( y + 8 )
x + 8 = 2y + 16
x - 2y = 8 ................(ii)
By adding eq. (i) and (ii). We have,
2y = 32
y = 16
Put the value of y = 16 in eq. (ii)
x = 40
Hence the present age of Rahul is 40 years
and , his son presentage is 16 years
