Answers & Solutions:
1) Answer (D)
Mode = 3(Median)-2(Mean)
7 = 3(5)-2(mode)
7-15 = -2(mode)
-8 = -2(mode)
mode = 4
So the answer is option D.
2) Answer (A)
Given, $\dfrac{sin a}{cos a} = \dfrac{x}{y}$
⇒ $\dfrac{sin a}{x} = \dfrac{cos a}{y}$
Let $\dfrac{sin a}{x} = \dfrac{cos a}{y}$ = k
$\dfrac{sin a}{x} = k ⇒ sin a = kx$
$\dfrac{cos a}{y} = k ⇒ cos a = ky$
We know that $sin^2 a + cos^2 a = 1$
$sin^2 a = (kx)^2 = k^2 x^2$
$cos^2 a = (ky)^2 = k^2 y^2$
⇒ $k^2 x^2 + k^2 y^2 = 1$
⇒ $k^2 ( x^2 + y^2 ) = 1$
⇒ $k^2 = \dfrac{1}{x^2 + y^2}$
$sin^2 a – cos^2 a = k^2 x^2 – k^2 y^2 = k^2 (x^2 – y^2)$
Substituting $k^2 = \dfrac{1}{x^2 + y^2}$ in above equation
Therefore, $sin^2 a – cos^2 a = \dfrac{x^2 – y^2}{x^2 + y^2}$
3) Answer (C)
we know that $\sec^{2}\theta-\tan^{2}\theta$=1
$(\sec\theta+\tan\theta)(\sec\theta-\tan\theta)$=1
$(\sec\theta+\tan\theta) \times 4=1$
$\csc\theta+\cot\theta$=1/4
4) Answer (A)
Given $\sin\theta$=5/13
From $\sin^{2}\theta+\cos^{2}\theta$=1
$\cos\theta$=12/13
$\sec\theta$=13/12
$\tan\theta$=$\sin\theta$/$\cos\theta$
=5/12
sum=(13/12)+(5/12)
=18/12
=3/2
5) Answer (A)
We know that AM$\geq$GM
15$\geq$GM
Let the numbers be a and b
$\sqrt{ab}\leq15$
ab$\geq$225
6) Answer (B)
Let the least odd number be 2n+1 then
2n+1+2n+3+2n+5+2n+7+2n+9=10n+25
10n+25=125
10n=100
n=10
Least odd number=21
Largest number=29
Product of 21*29=607
Hence, option B is the correct answer.
7) Answer (D)
let the cost of cake be x
40x=((2x-1)/2)42+9
40x=42x-21+9
2x=12
x=6
If x=6 total money with him is 40*6=Rs 240
Hence, option D is the correct answer.
8) Answer (D)
Substituting the values in (1), we get 3 * 3 + 4 * 4 – 6 = 19
So, (1) is false.
Substituting the values in (2), we get 3 * 4 + 4 * 6 – 6 *3 = 18
So, (2) is true
Substituting the values in (3), we get 3 * 4 * 6 – 4 * 4 + 6 * 3 – 4 = 50
So, (3) is false.
Substituting the values in (4), we get 3 * 3 * 6 > 4 * 4 * 3
So, (4) is true
Hence the correct option is (d)
9) Answer (C)
Volume of a cone=$(1/3)\pi r^{2}h$
r2=2*r1/5
$(r1)^{2}h1$=$ (r2)^{2}h2$
h1=(4/25)h2
h1:h2=4:25
10) Answer (C)
Given $\angle ABC = 90^\circ$
In a triangle, if two sides are equal, then, opposite angles are equal.
Here, AB = BC ⇒ $\angle A = \angle C$
Let $\angle A = \angle C = x^\circ$
Sum of angles in a triangle is equal to $180^\circ$
⇒ $90^\circ + 2x = 180^\circ$
⇒ $ 2x = 90^\circ$
⇒ $ x = 45^\circ$
Hence, $\angle ACB = 45^\circ$
11) Answer (C)
Volume of cake = vol.of bread + vol.of chocolate
(20)(14)(8) = vol.of bread + 880
2240 = vol.of bread + 880
Vol.of bread = 1360
So the answer is option C.
12) Answer (A)
Given,
Mean temperature of a week = $ 28^{0} $ i.e Total temperature 28 x 7 = 196
Mean temperature for Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday is $ 27.5^{0}$ i.e total temperature = 27.5 x 4 = 110 and
The mean temperature for Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday is $ 29^{0}$ i.e total temperature = 29 x 4 = 116
Now, the temperature recorded for Thursday is,
(110 + 116) – 196 = 226 – 196 = 30
Hence, option A is the correct answer.
13) Answer (C)
Let the present age of the son be x years
Mother’s age at the time of his birth will be 42 – x years
Given, 42 – x = x ⇒ 2x = 42
⇒ x = 21 years
Hence, The present age of the son = 21 years.
14) Answer (D)
$432 = 2^4 * 3^3$
So, log 432 = log $(2^4 * 3^3)$ = log $2^4$ + log $3^3$ = 4 log 2 + 3 log 3
= 4 * 0.3010 + 3 * 0.4771 = 2.6353
15) Answer (B)
For each friend, there are two options – he is invited, he is not invited.
So, the number of ways of inviting the friends is 2*2*2*…*2 (10 times) = $2^{10}$
From this, we have to subtract the case when none of the friends are invited. So, the total number of ways of inviting the friends such that at least one friend is invited is $2^{10}$ – 1
