Given : $(x^2 + y^2) = 113$ and $xy = 56$

Using $(x + y)^2 = x^2 + y^2 + 2xy$

=> $(x + y)^2 = 113 + (2 \times 56)$

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

=> $(x + y) = \sqrt{225} = 15$

=> Ans – (D)

Given : $(a + b) = 11$ and $a^2 + b^2 = 61$

Using $(a + b)^2 = a^2 + b^2 + 2ab$

=> $(11)^2 = 61 + (2 \times ab)$

=> $2 ab = 121 – 61 = 60$

=> $ab = \frac{60}{2} = 30$

=> Ans – (D)

Expression 1 : 4(2x -4) – 2 > 3x – 1

=> $8x-16-2$ > $3x-1$

=> $8x-3x$ > $-1+18$

=> $x$ > $\frac{17}{5}$ ————(i)

Expression 2 : 3x – 1 ≥ 4x -7

=> $4x-3x \leq -1+7$

=> $x \leq 6$ ———–(ii)

Combining inequalities (i) and (ii), we get : $\frac{17}{5}$ < $x \leq 6$

The only value that $x$ can take among the options = 6

=> Ans – (B)

(A) : (4x + 3)(4x ­- 3)(3x ­- 5)

= $(16x^2 – 12x + 12x – 9)(3x – 5)$

= $(16x^2 – 9)(3x – 5)$

= $48x^3 – 80x^2 – 27x + 45$

(B) : (4x – 3)(4x ­- 3)(3x -­ 5)

= $(16x^2 – 24x + 9)(3x – 5)$

= $48x^3 – 80x^2 – 72x^2 + 120x + 27x – 45$

= $48x^3 – 152x^2 + 147x – 45$

(C) : (4x + 3)(4x + 3)(3x -­ 5)

= $(16x^2 + 24x + 9)(3x – 5)$

= $48x^3 – 80x^2 + 72x^2 – 120x + 27x – 45$

= $48x^3 – 8x^2 – 93x – 45$

=> Ans – (C)

Let the first part = $x$ and second part = $(32 – x)$

According to ques, => $(x)^2 + (32 – x)^2 = 674$

=> $x^2 + (x^2 + 1024 – 64x) = 674$

=> $2x^2 – 64x + 1024 – 674 = 0$

=> $x^2 – 32x + 175 = 0$

=> $x^2 – 25x – 7x + 175 = 0$

=> $x(x-25) – 7(x-25) = 0$

=> $(x-25)(x-7) = 0$

=> $x = 25,7$

=> Ans – (C)

Given : (4x ­- 5) = (3x ­-1)

=> $4x – 3x = 5 – 1$

=> $x = 4$

To find : $(x + 4)^2$

= $(4 + 4)^2 = 8^2 = 64$

=> Ans – (B)

Expression 1 : 2(3x + 5) > 4x -­ 5

=> $6x+10$ > $4x-5$

=> $6x-4x$ > $-5-10$

=> $2x$ > $-15$

=> $x$ > $\frac{-15}{2}$ ——–(i)

Expression 2 : 4x -­ 5 < 3x + 2

=> $4x-3x$ < $2+5$

=> $x$ < $7$ ———(ii)

Combining inequalities (i) and (ii), we get : $\frac{-15}{2}$ < $x$ < $7$

The only value that $x$ can take = 6

=> Ans – (B)

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)

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)

According to ques,

=> $(\frac{1}{6} \times x) – (\frac{7}{2} \times \frac{3}{7}) = \frac{-7}{4}$

=> $\frac{x}{6} – \frac{3}{2} = \frac{-7}{4}$

=> $\frac{x}{6} = \frac{3}{2} – \frac{7}{4}$

=> $\frac{x}{6} = \frac{-1}{4}$

=> $x = \frac{-6}{4} = -1.5$

=> Ans – (A)
