Question 1: Four of the following five parts numbered A,B,C,D,E are in the following equation are exactly equal.Which of the part is not equal to the other four.The number of that part is the answer

a) $xy^{2}-x^{2}y+2x^{2}y^{2}$

b) $xy^{2}(1-2x)+x^{2}y(2y-1)$

c) $xy^{2}(1+2x)-x^{2}y(2y+1)$

d) $xy[y(1+x)-x(1+y)]$

e) $xy[(x+y)^{2}+y(1-y)-x(1+x)-2xy]$

1) Answer (A)

Solution:

(A) : $xy^{2}-x^{2}y+2x^{2}y^{2}$

= $xy(y-x+2xy)$

(B) : $xy^{2}(1-2x)+x^{2}y(2y-1)$

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

= $xy^2-x^y = xy(y-x)$

(C) : $xy^{2}(1-2x)+x^{2}y(2y-1)$

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

= $xy^2-x^y = xy(y-x)$

(D) : $xy[y(1+x)-x(1+y)]$

= $xy(y+xy-x-xy) = xy(y-x)$

(E) : $xy[(x+y)^{2}+y(1-y)-x(1+x)-2xy]$

= $xy[(x^2+y^2+2xy)+(y-y^2)+(-x-x^2)-2xy]$

= $xy(y-x)$

=> Ans – (A)

Question 2: If 2x+y= 15,  2y+z= 25   and   2z+x =26 ,what is value of z?

a) 4

b) 7

c) 9

d) 12

e) None of these

2) Answer (E)

Solution:

Equation (i) : $2x+y=15$

Equation (ii) : $2y+z=25$

Equation (iii) : $2z+x=26$

Adding the three equations, => $3x+3y+3z=15+25+26$

=> $3(x+y+z)=66$

=> $x+y+z=\frac{66}{3}=22$ ————(iv)

Subtracting equation (i) from (iv), => $(z)+(x-2x)+(y-y)=(22-15)$

=> $z-x=7$ ————-(v)

Adding equations (v) and (iii), => $3z=26+7=33$

=> $z=\frac{33}{3}=11$

=> Ans – (E)

Instructions

II. $3y^{2}+13y+14=0$

a) if x > y

b) if x ≥ y

c) if x < y

d) if x ≤ y

e) if x = y or the relationship cannot be established.

3) Answer (E)

Solution:

I.$2x^{2} + 21x + 10 = 0$

=> $2x^2 + x + 20x + 10 = 0$

=> $x (2x + 1) + 10 (2x + 1) = 0$

=> $(x + 10) (2x + 1) = 0$

=> $x = -10 , \frac{-1}{2}$

II.$3y^{2} + 13y + 14 = 0$

=> $3y^2 + 6y + 7y + 14 = 0$

=> $3y (y + 2) + 7 (y + 2) = 0$

=> $(y + 2) (3y + 7) = 0$

=> $y = -2 , \frac{-7}{3}$

$\therefore$ No relation can be established.

II. $3y^{2}+7y+4=0$

a) if x > y

b) if x ≥ y

d) if x ≤ y

e) if x = y or the relationship cannot be established.

4) Answer (D)

Solution:

I.$3x^{2} + 10x + 8 = 0$

=> $3x^2 + 6x + 4x + 8 = 0$

=> $3x (x + 2) + 4 (x + 2) = 0$

=> $(x + 2) (3x + 4) = 0$

=> $x = -2 , \frac{-4}{3}$

II.$3y^{2} + 7y + 4 = 0$

=> $3y^2 + 3y + 4y + 4 = 0$

=> $3y (y + 1) + 4 (y + 1) = 0$

=> $(y + 1) (3y + 4) = 0$

=> $y = -1 , \frac{-4}{3}$

$\therefore x \leq y$

Question 5: I.  $2x^{2}-11x+12=0$
II. $2y^{2}-19y+44=0$

a) if x > y

b) if x ≥ y

c) if x < y

d) if x ≤ y

e) if x = y or the relationship cannot be established.

5) Answer (D)

Solution:

I.$2x^{2} – 11x + 12 = 0$

=> $2x^2 – 8x – 3x + 12 = 0$

=> $2x (x – 4) – 3 (x – 4) = 0$

=> $(x – 4) (2x – 3) = 0$

=> $x = 4 , \frac{3}{2}$

II.$2y^{2} – 19y + 44 = 0$

=> $2y^2 – 8y – 11y + 44 = 0$

=> $2y (y – 4) – 11 (y – 4) = 0$

=> $(y – 4) (2y – 11) = 0$

=> $y = 4 , \frac{11}{2}$

$\therefore x \leq y$

II. $25y^{2}+25y+6=0$

a) if x > y

b) if x ≥ y

c) if x < y

d) if x ≤ y

e) if x = y or the relationship cannot be established.

6) Answer (C)

Solution:

I.$5x^{2} + 29x + 20 = 0$

=> $5x^2 + 25x + 4x + 20 = 0$

=> $5x (x + 5) + 4 (x + 5) = 0$

=> $(x + 5) (5x + 4) = 0$

=> $x = -5 , \frac{-4}{5}$

II.$25y^{2} + 25y + 6 = 0$

=> $25y^2 + 10y + 15y + 6 = 0$

=> $5y (5y + 2) + 3 (5y + 2) = 0$

=> $(5y + 3) (5y + 2) = 0$

=> $y = \frac{-3}{5} , \frac{-2}{5}$

Therefore $x < y$

d) if x ≤ y

e) if x = y or the relationship cannot be established.

7) Answer (E)

Solution:

I.$x^{2} – 3x – 88 = 0$

=> $x^2 + 8x – 11x – 88 = 0$

=> $x (x + 8) – 11 (x + 8) = 0$

=> $(x + 8) (x – 11) = 0$

=> $x = -8 , 11$

II.$y^{2} + 8y – 48 = 0$

=> $y^2 + 12y – 4y – 48 = 0$

=> $y (y + 12) – 4 (y + 12) = 0$

=> $(y + 12) (y – 4) = 0$

=> $y = -12 , 4$

$\therefore$ No relation can be established.

=> $x^2 + 7x – 4x – 28 = 0$

=> $x (x + 7) – 4 (x + 7) = 0$

=> $(x – 4) (x + 7) = 0$

=> $x = 4 , -7$

II.$y^{2} – y – 20 = 0$

=> $y^2 – 5y + 4y – 20 = 0$

=> $y (y – 5) + 4 (y – 5) = 0$

=> $(y + 4) (y – 5) = 0$

=> $y = -4 , 5$

$\therefore$ No relation can be established.

d) x ≤ y

e) x = y or the relation cannot be established.

9) Answer (C)

Solution:

I.$6x^{2} + 29x + 35 = 0$

=> $6x^2 + 15x + 14x + 35 = 0$

=> $3x (2x + 5) + 7 (2x + 5) = 0$

=> $(2x + 5) (3x + 7) = 0$

=> $x = \frac{-7}{3} , \frac{-5}{2}$

II.$3y^{2} + 11y + 10 = 0$

=> $3y^2 + 6y + 5y + 10 = 0$

=> $3y (y + 2) + 5 (y + 2) = 0$

=> $(y + 2) (3y + 5) = 0$

=> $y = -2 , \frac{-5}{3}$

Hence $x < y$

=> $2x^2 + 8x + 10x + 40 = 0$

=> $2x (x + 4) + 10 (x + 4) = 0$

=> $(x + 4) (2x + 10) = 0$

=> $x = -4 , -5$

II.$2y^{2} + 15y + 27 = 0$

=> $2y^2 + 6y + 9y + 27 = 0$

=> $2y (y + 3) + 9 (y + 3) = 0$

=> $(y + 3) (2y + 9) = 0$

=> $y = -3 , \frac{-9}{2}$

$\therefore$ No relation can be established.

a) x ˃ y

b) x ≥ y

c) x ˂ y

d) x ≤ y

e) x = y or the relationship cannot be established

19) Answer (B)

Solution:

I.$x^{2} + 8x + 15 = 0$

=> $x^2 + 5x + 3x + 15 = 0$

=> $x (x + 5) + 3 (x + 5) = 0$

=> $(x + 5) (x + 3) = 0$

=> $x = -5 , -3$

II.$y^{2} + 11y + 30 = 0$

=> $y^2 + 5y + 6y + 30 = 0$

Question 20: I.2x – 3y = – 3.5
II. 3x + 2y = – 6.5

a) x ˃ y

b) x ≥ y

c) x ˂ y

d) x ≤ y

e) x = y or the relationship cannot be established

20) Answer (C)

Solution:

I : $2x – 3y = -3.5$

II : $3x + 2y = -6.5$

Multiplying eqn(I) by 2 and eqn(II) by 3, and then adding both equations, we get :

=> $(4x + 9x) + (-6y + 6y) = (-7 -19.5)$

=> $13x = -26.5$

=> $x = \frac{-26.5}{13} \approx -2$

=> $y = \frac{3x + 6.5}{2} = 0.25$

Hence $x < y$

c) x ˂ y

d) x ≤ y

e) x = y or the relationship cannot be established

21) Answer (D)

Solution:

I.$x^{2} + 28x + 192 = 0$

=> $x^2 + 16x + 12x + 192 = 0$

=> $x (x + 16) + 12 (x + 16) = 0$

=> $(x + 16) (x + 12) = 0$

=> $x = -16 , -12$

II.$y^{2} + 16y + 48 = 0$

=> $y^2 + 12y + 4y + 48 = 0$

=> $y (y + 12) + 4 (y + 12) = 0$

=> $(y + 12) (y + 4) = 0$

=> $y = -12 , -4$

$\therefore x \leq y$

II. ${y^2}$ + 11y + 10 = 0

a) x ˃ y

b) x ≥ y

d) x ≤ y

e) x = y or the relationship cannot be established

22) Answer (A)

Solution:

I.$x^{2} – 7x + 10 = 0$

=> $x^2 – 5x – 2x + 10 = 0$

=> $x (x – 5) – 2 (x – 5) = 0$

=> $(x – 5) (x – 2) = 0$

=> $x = 5 , 2$

II.$y^{2} + 11y + 10 = 0$

=> $y^2 + 10y + y + 10 = 0$

=> $y (y + 10) + 1 (y + 10) = 0$
