Answers & Solutions:
1) Answer (A)
Given $2x^{2}-9x+7=0$
$ 2x^{2}-2x-7x+7$=0
$2x(x-1)-7(x-1)$=0
$(2x-7)(x-1)$=0
p=3.5 and q=1
Roots of the new equation are p+1 an q+1 i.e 4.5 and 2
$(x-4.5)(x-2)$=0
$ 2x^{2}-13x+18$=0
2) Answer (D)
$b-\frac{1}{b}$=7
Squaring on both sides we have
$b^{2}-2(b)(1/b)+(\frac{1}{b})^{2}$=49
$b^{2}+(\frac{1}{b})^{2}$=49+2 = 51
Adding 2 on both sides
$b^{2}+2+(\frac{1}{b})^{2}$=51+2
$(b+\frac{1}{b})^{2}$=53
$b+\frac{1}{b}$=$\sqrt{53}$
3) Answer (B)
$a+\frac{1}{a}$=4
Squaring on both sides we have
$a^{2}+2(a)(1/a)+(\frac{1}{a})^{2}$=16
$a^{2}+(\frac{1}{a})^{2}$=14
Subtracting 2 on both sides
$a^{2}-2+(\frac{1}{a})^{2}$=14-2
$(a-\frac{1}{a})^{2}$=12
$a-\frac{1}{a}$=$\sqrt{12}$
4) Answer (C)
If $a^3+b^3+c^3 = 3abc$, then $a+b+c = 0$.
$(a+b)^2-c^2 = (a+b+c)(a+b-c) = 0$
5) Answer (C)
$x^2 + y^2 + x^{-2} + y^{-2} = 4$
⇒ $(x^2 + \frac{1}{x^2} – 2) + (y^2 + \frac{1}{y^2} – 2) = 0$
⇒ ${(x – \frac{1}{x})}^2 + {(y – \frac{1}{y})}^2 = 0$
Sum of two squares is zero when both the numbers are zero.
⇒ $x – \frac{1}{x}$ = 0 and $y – \frac{1}{y} = 0$
⇒ $x = 1$or $-1$ and $y = 1$ or $-1$
In all the cases, $x^4 + y^4 = 2$
Hence, option C is the correct answer.
6) Answer (C)
Given, $x^2 + 1 = 2x$
Dividing with x on both sides
⇒ $x+\dfrac{1}{x} = 2$
Cubing on both sides
⇒ $(x+\dfrac{1}{x})^3 = 2^3$
⇒ $x^3+\dfrac{1}{x^3}+3\times x\times \dfrac{1}{x}(x+\dfrac{1}{x}) = 8$
⇒ $x^3+\dfrac{1}{x^3}+3\times2 = 8$
⇒ $x^3+\dfrac{1}{x^3} = 8-6 = 2$
7) Answer (C)
7x + 3y + 5z = 27 → (1)
6x + 6y + 10z = 14 → (2)
Multiplying equation (1) by 2 and subtracting (2) from (1) we get
8x = 40
⇒ x = 5
Hence, option C is the correct answer.
8) Answer (B)
$1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{7}}}} = 1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{8}{7}}}}$
$= 1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{7}{8}}}$
$= 1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{15}{8}}}$
$= 1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{8}{15}}$
$= 1+\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{23}{15}}$
$= 1+\dfrac{15}{23}$
$= \dfrac{38}{23}$
9) Answer (B)
Given, $x+\dfrac{1}{x} = 3$
Squaring on both sides
$(x+\dfrac{1}{x})^2 = 3^2$
$x^2+\dfrac{1}{x^2}+2\times x \times \dfrac{1}{x} = 9$
$x^2+\dfrac{1}{x^2}+2 = 9$
$x^2+\dfrac{1}{x^2} = 7$
Cubing above equation on both sides
$(x^2+\dfrac{1}{x^2})^3 = 7^3$
⇒
$x^6+\dfrac{1}{x^6}+3\times x^2\times \dfrac{1}{x^2}((x^2+\dfrac{1}{x^2}}) = 343$
⇒ $x^6+\dfrac{1}{x^6}+3\times7 = 343$
⇒ $x^6+\dfrac{1}{x^6}+21 = 343$
⇒ $x^6+\dfrac{1}{x^6} = 343-21 = 322$
10) Answer (C)
7x + 3y + 5z = 27 → (1)
6x + 6y + 10z = 14 → (2)
Multiplying equation (1) by 2 and subtracting (2) from (1) we get
8x = 40
⇒ x = 5
Hence, option C is the correct answer.
11) Answer (B)
$1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{7}}}} = 1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{8}{7}}}}$
$= 1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{7}{8}}}$
$= 1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{15}{8}}}$
$= 1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{8}{15}}$
$= 1+\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{23}{15}}$
$= 1+\dfrac{15}{23}$
$= \dfrac{38}{23}$
12) Answer (B)
Given, $x+\dfrac{1}{x} = 3$
Squaring on both sides
$(x+\dfrac{1}{x})^2 = 3^2$
$x^2+\dfrac{1}{x^2}+2\times x \times \dfrac{1}{x} = 9$
$x^2+\dfrac{1}{x^2}+2 = 9$
$x^2+\dfrac{1}{x^2} = 7$
Cubing above equation on both sides
$(x^2+\dfrac{1}{x^2})^3 = 7^3$
⇒ $x^6+\dfrac{1}{x^6}+3\times x^2\times \dfrac{1}{x^2}((x^2+\dfrac{1}{x^2}}) = 343$
⇒ $x^6+\dfrac{1}{x^6}+3\times7 = 343$
⇒ $x^6+\dfrac{1}{x^6}+21 = 343$
⇒ $x^6+\dfrac{1}{x^6} = 343-21 = 322$
13) Answer (B)
$1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{4}}}} = 1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{5}{4}}}}$
$= 1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{4}{5}}}$
$= 1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{9}{5}}}$
$= 1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{5}{9}}$
$= 1+\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{14}{9}}$
$= 1+\dfrac{9}{14}$
$= \dfrac{23}{14}$
14) Answer (C)
$1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{2}{7}}}} = 1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{9}{7}}}}$
$= 1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{7}{9}}}$
$= 1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{16}{9}}}$
$= 1+\dfrac{1}{1+\dfrac{9}{16}}$
$= 1+\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{25}{16}}$
$= 1+\dfrac{16}{25}$
$= \dfrac{41}{25}$
15) Answer (A)
$x^{4}+(\frac{1}{x})^{4}$=34
Add 2 on both sides
$x^{4}+2+(\frac{1}{x})^{4}$=34+2
($x^{2}+\frac{1}{x^{2}})^{2}$=36
$x^{2}+(\frac{1}{x})^{2}$=6
Subtracting 2 on both sides
$x^{2}+(\frac{1}{x})^{2}-2$=4
($x-\frac{1}{x})^{2}$=4
$x-1/x$=2
16) Answer (A)
$x^{4}+(\frac{1}{x})^{4}$=727
Add 2 on both sides
$x^{4}+2+(\frac{1}{x})^{4}$=727+2
($x^{2}+\frac{1}{x^{2}})^{2}$=729
$x^{2}+(\frac{1}{x})^{2}$=27
Subtracting 2 on both sides
$x^{2}+(\frac{1}{x})^{2}-2$=27-2
x-1/x=5
Cubing on both sides we have
$x^{3}-(\frac{1}{x})^{3}-15$=125
$x^{3}-(\frac{1}{x})^{3}$=125+15=140
17) Answer (A)
$x^{4}+(\frac{1}{x})^{4}$=119
Add 2 on both sides
$x^{4}+2+(\frac{1}{x})^{4}$=119+2
$(x^{2}+\frac{1}{x^{2}})^{2}$=121
$x^{2}+(\frac{1}{x})^{2}$=11
Subtracting 2 on both sides
$x^{2}+(\frac{1}{x})^{2}-2$=11-2
x-1/x=3
Cubing on both sides we have
$x^{3}-(\frac{1}{x})^{3}-9$=27
$x^{3}-(\frac{1}{x})^{3}$=36
18) Answer (A)
Given,
$p + \large\frac{1}{p}$ $=$ $3$
Squaring both sides,
$p^2$ $+$ $\large\frac{1}{p^2}$ $+$ $2 \times p \times \large\frac{1}{p}$ $=$ $9$
$p^2 + \large\frac{1}{p^2}$ $=$ $7$
Cubing on both sides,
$p^6 + \large\frac{1}{p^6}$ $+ 3 \times p^2 \times \large\frac{1}{p^2}(p^2 + \large\frac{1}{p^2}) $ $= 343$
$p^6 + \large\frac{1}{p^6}$ $+ 3 (p^2 + \large\frac{1}{p^2})$ $=343$
$p^6 + \large\frac{1}{p^6}$ $+ 3 (7)$= $343$
$p^6 + \large\frac{1}{p^6}$ $=$ $343-21$
$p^6 + \large\frac{1}{p^6}$ $=$ $322$
19) Answer (C)
Given, $px^3 + qx^2 – 19x – 30 = 0$ is divisible by $x^2 + 5x + 6$
$x^2 + 5x + 6$ can be factorized as $(x + 2)(x + 3)$
x = -2 and x = -3 should satisfy $px^3 + qx^2 – 19x – 30 = 0$.
Substituting the values,
When, $x = -2$
$-8p + 4q + 8 = 0$ or $2p – q – 2 = 0$
When, $x = -3$
$-27p + 9q + 27 = 0$ or $3p – q – 3 = 0$
Subtracting both, $p = 1$
Substituting the value of $p = 1$, we get $q = 0$
Hence, $(p, q)$= $(1, 0)$.
20) Answer (B)
Given, $l^{3} + m^{3}$ = -218 and $lm = -35$
$(l+m)^{3} = l^{3}+ m^{3} + 3lm(l+m)$
$(l+m)^{3} = -218 + 3(-35)(l+m)$
$(l+m)^{3} = -218 -105(l+m)$
we need to solve 3rd degree equation
so,without solving, by verification, we get $l+m = -2$,
so the answer is option B.
