Ques [1] : Find the GCD of the following polynomials 12x4 + 324x and 36x3 + 90x2 – 54x
Solution: 12x4 + 324x = 12x(x3 + 27) = 6 × 2x(x3 + (3)3) = 6 × 2x (x + 3)(x2 + 9 –3x)
36x3 + 90x2 – 54x = 18x(2x2 + 5x – 3) = 6 × 3x (2x2 + 6x – x – 3)
= 6 × 3x (2x (x+ 3) – 1(x + 3))
= 6 × 3x (x+ 3)(2x – 1)
Thus, the GCD of the given polynomials is 6x (x + 3).
Ques [2] : Solve for x and y:
and
Solution: We are given the equations as
…(1)
…(2)
From (1) + (2), we get
Now, putting the value of x in the equation (1), we get
Thus, the solution of the given equations are x = 2a and y = –2b.
OR
Solve for x and y: 31x + 29y = 33 and 29x + 31y = 27
Solution: We are given the equations as
31x + 29y = 33 …(1)
29x + 31y = 27 …(2)
From (1) + (2), we get
⇒31x + 29y + 29x + 31y = 33 + 27
⇒60x + 60y = 60
⇒60(x + y) = 60
⇒x + y = 1 …(3)
From (1) – (2), we get
⇒31x + 29y – 29x – 31y = 33 – 27
⇒2x – 2y = 6
⇒2(x – y) = 6
⇒x – y = 3 …(4)
From (3) + (4), we get
⇒2x = 4 x = 2
From (3) – (4), we get
⇒2y = –2 y = –1
Thus, we get x = 2 and y = –1
Ques [3]: Find the sum of all the three digits whole numbers which are multiple of 7
Solution: All the three-digits whole numbers are 100, 101, 102,…, 999.
Out of which, the multiples of 7 are 105, 112, 119, …, 994
Now,
⇒994 = 105 + (n – 1)(7)
⇒994 –105 = 7(n –1)
⇒889 = 7(n –1)
⇒ n = 127 + 1 = 128
Thus, the required sum of the whole numbers which are multiples of 7 is
Ques [4]: In the figure (1), PQ || AB and PR || AC. Prove that QR || BC.
Solution: Since PQ || AB in ∆OAB, we get
…(1) [ By Basic Proportionally Theorem ]
Since PR || AC in ∆OAC, we get
…(2) [ By Basic Proportionally Theorem ]
From the equations (1) and (2), we get
QR | | BC [ By Converse of Basic Proportionally Theorem ]
OR
In the figure (2) incircle of ∆ABC touches its sides AB, BC and CA at D, E and F respectively. If AB = AC, prove that BE = EC
Solution:
We know that the tangents drawn from an external point to the circle are equal in length. Thus, we get
Now, we have AB = AC ⇒ x + y = x + z ⇒ y = z ⇒ BE = EC.
Ques [5]: If the mean of the following frequency distribution is 49, find the missing frequency p:
CLASS | FREQUENCY |
---|---|
0-20 | 2 |
20-40 | 6 |
40-60 | P |
60-80 | 5 |
80-100 | 2 |
Solution:
Class Class-Mark (x) Frequency
(f)
x×f
0-20 10 2 20
20-40 30 6 180
40-60 50 p 50p
60-80 70 5 350
80-100 90 2 180
TOTAL 15 + p 730 + 50p
Now, we know that the mean of the grouped frequency is
Ques [6]: A wrist watch is available for Rs. 1000 cash or Rs. 500 as cash down payment followed by three equal monthly installments of Rs. 180. Calculate the rate of interest charged under the installment plan.
Solution: Here, we have
P = Rs. 1000,
A = Rs. (500 + 180 × 3) = Rs. (500 + 540) = Rs 1040
T = 3 Months = years
SI = A – P = Rs. (1040 – 1000) = Rs. 40. Thus, we need to find the rate of interest R = ?
We know that
Therefore, the rate of the interest is R = 16% per year
Ques [7]: An unbiased die is tossed once. Find the probability of getting (i) A multiple of 2 or 3
(ii) A prime number greater than 2.
Solution: In an unbiased die, we have {1,2,3,4,5,6} Thus, we have n(S) = 6
(i) A = multiple of 2 = {2,4,6} ⇒ n(A) = 3
B = multiple of 3 = {3,6} ⇒ n(B) = 2
A ∩ B = multiple of both 2 and 3 = {6} ⇒ n(A ∩ B) = 1
Thus, the required probability of getting a multiple of 2 or 3 is
(ii) A = A prime number greater than 2 = {3,5} n(A) = 2.
Thus, the required probability of getting a prime number greater than 2 is
