For the following questions answer them individually
Question 1
If xy = 56 and x2 + y2 = 113, then what will be the value of (x + y)?
A 29
B 21
C 36
D 15
Answer: D
Explanation:
Given : (x2 + y2 ) = 113 and xy = 56
Using (x + y)2 = x2 + y2 + 2xy
=> (x + y)2 = 113 + (2 × 56)
=> (x + y)2 = 113 + 112 = 225
=> (x + y) = 225 = 15
=> Ans - (D)
Question 2
If a + b = 11 and a 2 + b2 = 61, then value of ab is
A 12
B 96
C 24
D 30
Answer: D
Explanation:
Given : (a + b) = 11 and a 2 + b2 = 61
Using (a + b)2 = a 2 + b2 + 2ab
=> (11)2 = 61 + (2 × ab)
=> 2ab = 121 − 61 = 60

60
=> ab = 2 = 30
=> Ans - (D)
Question 3
If 4(2x -4) - 2 > 3x - 1 ≥ 4x -7, then x can take which of the following values?
A 7
B 6
C 2
D 0

Answer: B
Explanation:
Expression 1 : 4(2x -4) - 2 > 3x - 1
=> 8x − 16 − 2 > 3x − 1
=> 8x − 3x > −1 + 18
17
=> x > 5 ------------(i)
Expression 2 : 3x - 1 ≥ 4x -7
=> 4x − 3x ≤ −1 + 7
=> x ≤ 6 -----------(ii)
17
Combining inequalities (i) and (ii), we get : 5 < x ≤ 6
The only value that x can take among the options = 6
=> Ans - (B)

Question 4
Factors of 48x3 − 8x2 − 93x − 45 are
A (4x + 3)(4x - 3)(3x - 5)
(4x - 3)(4x - 3)(3x

B
- 5)
(4x + 3)(4x + 3)(3x

C
- 5)
D (4x - 3)(4x + 3)(3x + 5)
Answer: C
Explanation:
(A) : (4x + 3)(4x - 3)(3x - 5)
= (16x2 − 12x + 12x − 9)(3x − 5)
= (16x2 − 9)(3x − 5)
= 48x3 − 80x2 − 27x + 45
(B) : (4x - 3)(4x - 3)(3x - 5)
= (16x2 − 24x + 9)(3x − 5)
= 48x3 − 80x2 − 72x2 + 120x + 27x − 45
= 48x3 − 152x2 + 147x − 45
(C) : (4x + 3)(4x + 3)(3x - 5)
= (16x2 + 24x + 9)(3x − 5)
= 48x3 − 80x2 + 72x2 − 120x + 27x − 45
= 48x3 − 8x2 − 93x − 45
=> Ans - (C)

Question 5
Divide 32 into two parts such that the sum of the square of the parts is 674. What is the value of the
parts?
A 22, 10
B 30, 2
C 25, 7
D 20, 12
Answer: C
Explanation:
Let the first part = x and second part = (32 − x)
According to ques, => (x)2 + (32 − x)2 = 674
=> x2 + (x2 + 1024 − 64x) = 674
=> 2x2 − 64x + 1024 − 674 = 0
=> x2 − 32x + 175 = 0
=> x2 − 25x − 7x + 175 = 0
=> x(x − 25) − 7(x − 25) = 0
=> (x − 25)(x − 7) = 0
=> x = 25, 7
=> Ans - (C)
Question 6
If (4x -5) = (3x -1), then the numerical value of (x + 4)2 is
A 16
B 64
C 32
D 8
Answer: B
Explanation:
Given : (4x - 5) = (3x -1)
=> 4x − 3x = 5 − 1
=> x = 4
To find : (x + 4)2
= (4 + 4)2 = 82 = 64
=> Ans - (B)

Question 7
If 2(3x + 5) > 4x - 5 < 3x + 2; then x can take which of the following values?

A -8
B 6
C 8
D 10
Answer: B
Explanation:
Expression 1 : 2(3x + 5) > 4x - 5
=> 6x + 10 > 4x − 5
=> 6x − 4x > −5 − 10
=> 2x > −15

−15
=> x > 2 --------(i)
Expression 2 : 4x - 5 < 3x + 2
=> 4x − 3x < 2 + 5
=> x < 7 ---------(ii)

−15
Combining inequalities (i) and (ii), we get : 2 < x<7
The only value that x can take = 6
=> Ans - (B)
Question 8
If 51.97 -(81.18 -x ) -59.39 = 5.268, then value of x will be
A 24.912
B 68.492
C 93.868
D 197.808
Answer: C
Explanation:
Expression : 51.97 -(81.18 -x ) -59.39 = 5.268
=> 51.97 - 81.18 + x = 5.268 + 59.39
=> -29.21 + x = 64.658
=> x = 64.658 + 29.21
=> x = 93.868
=> Ans - (C)
Question 9
What should be added to 3(x-2y) to obtain 2(3x + y) - 5(2x + 3)?
A 8y -7x -15
B 8y-7x + 15
C 8y + 7x + 15

D 8y + 7x -15
Answer: A
Explanation:
Let m should be added to 3(x-2y) to obtain 2(3x + y) - 5(2x + 3)
=> (m) + [3(x − 2y)] = 2(3x + y) − 5(2x + 3)
=> m + 3x − 6y = 6x + 2y − 10x − 15
=> m = (2y + 6y) + (−4x − 3x) − 15
=> m = 8y − 7x − 15
=> Ans - (A)

Question 10
If 1/6 of x - 7/2 of 3/7 equals - 7/4, then the value of x is
A -1.5
B 3
C -2.5
D 6
Answer: A
Explanation:
According to ques,
1 7 3 −7
=> ( 6 × x) − ( 2 × 7 ) = 4
x 3 −7
=> 6 − 2 = 4
x 3 7
=> 6 = 2 − 4
x −1
=> 6 = 4
−6
=> x = 4 = −1.5
=> Ans - (A)

If xy = 56 and x2 + y2 = 113, then what will be the value of (x + y)?

Using (x + y)2 = x2 + y2 + 2xy

=> (x + y)2 = 113 + (2 × 56)

=> (x + y)2 = 113 + 112 = 225

If a + b = 11 and a 2 + b2 = 61, then value of ab is

Using (a + b)2 = a 2 + b2 + 2ab

=> (11)2 = 61 + (2 × ab)

=> 2ab = 121 − 61 = 60
