1. a) Natural numbers between 1 and 19 are
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18 and 19
Prim embers are 2,3,5,7,11,13,17 and 19 02
Sum = 2+3+5+7+11+13+17+19 02
= 77 01
Hence X=40
(i) Total no of periods is 40 01
(ii) No. of Civics = 1 X 40 01
5
= 8 periods
(b) given U = 0. 2̇
10U = 2. 2̇
10U – U = 2. 2̇ – 02̇
9U= 2
U=2

And V = 1.86666……….
V = 1.86̇
10V = 18. 6̇
100V = 186. 6̇
90V = 168
V = 168

V= 28

n=6
Hence,
3x + 2y = 12...................................................(i)
x + y = 5 …………………………………(ii) 01
3x + 2y = 12.........................................(i)
3 (x+y = 5).............................................(ii)
3x + 2y = 12...........................................(i)
3x+3y = 15).............................................(ii)
-y = -3
-I -I
y =3 01
In (i) : 3x+2 (3) = 12
3x+ 6 = 12
3x = 12 – 6
3x = 6
3 3
x =2 01
b) x2 – x – 6 = 0
x2 – 3x+2x – 6 = 0 01
x(x-3) +2(x-3) = 0 01
(x-3) (x+2) = 0 01
x-3 = 0 or x+2 = 0 01
x = 0+3 or x = 0-2
x = 3 or x = -2 01
7. a) Given 1 x = 81-x

=( ) =( ) 01
3 3
Compare exponents since bases are the same
x= 4x 01
square both sides
( x )2 = (4x)2
X = 16x2 01
16x2 – x = 0
X(16x – 1) = 0 01
X=0 or 16x-1=0
X=0 or 16x=0+1
X=0 or 16x=1
X=0 or x= 1
16 01
b) Z = 𝑥

= 0.1 01
= 1x10-1 02
W𝑈̂ V = 180-120o
W𝑈̂ V = 60o 01
But,
Z𝑋̂ Y = W 𝑈̂ V = 60o (corresponding angles) 01
Hence, values of the rest of angles are
W 𝑈̂ V = 60o
X𝑍̂ Y = 30o
Z𝑋̂ Y = 60o 01
9. a) 5 – 2 (5 – 2 ) – )

x –y 2
x+y = 0.25 01
x–y = 25
x+y 100 01
x–y = 5
x+y 10
x–y = 1
x+y 2 01
x-y = 2 (x-y)
x-y = 2x-2y 01
y +2y = 2x –x
3y = x
y = 1x

In (ii) :x-3 = 1
x = 1+3
x=4 01
Hence, the two numbers are 3 and 4.
