Answers & Solutions:
1) Answer (B)
NOTE :- For an inequality :case 1 : $(x – a) (x – b) > 0$ => $x < a $ & $ x > b$ [ if a < b]case 2 : $(x – a) (x – b) < 0$=> $a < x < b $ [ if a < b]
$x(x + 3) < 10$
=> $x^{2} + 3x – 10 < 0$=> $x^{2} + 5x – 2x – 10 < 0$=> $x(x + 5) -2(x + 5) < 0$=> $(x + 5) (x – 2) < 0$=> -5 < x < 2 [using case 2]=> Ans – (B)
2) Answer (C)
Given inequality, $3(x^{2} – 4x + 4) < x$
=> $3x^{2} – 13x + 12 < 0$=> On solving the equations we get x = 3, 4/3
On the checking for the value of the equation in 3 regions, we see that it is negative only for $ \frac{4}{3} < x < 3$
so option c is correct

14) Answer (C)
Let there be N number of total sweets.
Let each student recieve x sweets.
Initially each student recieved x sweets i.e (N/300) = x
Afterwards, 50 students were absent.
Now, each student recieved (x+1) sweets i.e (N/300) = x+1
Solving the simultaneius equations we get,
x=5
and hence there will be total N=5*300 = 1500 sweets.
Option C is correct option.
