\n$(6x-7)^{2}$=$36x^{2}-2*6x*7+7^{2}$
\nBut in the question it is given as -87x+52 so we should add 3x-3 to it in order to make it a perfect square.<\/p>\n
\n$(4x-5)^{2}$=$16x^{2}-2*4x*5+5^{2}$
\nBut in the question it is given as 38x+23 so we should add -2x+2 to it in order to make it a perfect square.<\/p>\n
\n5x=12y,x=12\/5y
\n$a^{2}$=$36*x^{2}$
\n$b^{2}$=$25*x^{2}$

\nTime=distance\/speed
\nLet total distance=x
\nTime taken for one fourth distance=(x\/4)\/20=x\/80
\nTime taken for half the distance=(x\/2)\/40=x\/80
\nTime taken for the other one fourth=(x\/4)\/10=x\/40
\nTotal time=4x\/80
\n=x\/20
\nAverage speed=(x)\/(x\/20)
\n=20 km\/hr<\/p>\n
\nTherefore vt=(3v\/5)*(t+40)
\n5t=3t+120
\n2t=120
\nt=60 min
\nNow vt=(6v\/5)(t1)
\nt1=5*t\/6
\nt1=50 min<\/p>\n
\nIncreased by 10% it becomes 1.1x
\nDecreased by 10% it becomes 1.1x*0.9
\n=0.99x
\nPercentage to be increased to get the original value=(0.01x\/0\/0.99x)*100
\n=100\/99 %<\/p>\n
\nTherefore 20*60\/100=12 litres
\nWater =20-12=8 litres
\nTotal alcohol=12+4=16 litres
\nWater percentage=(8\/24)*100
\n=33.33%<\/p>\n
\n5% of the total marks=5*150\/100
\n=7.5
\nGiven marks=45
\nTherefore pass marks=45+7.5
\n=52.5<\/p>\n
\nLoss percentage = 20%
\nThen, Cost Price of the product = $1200 \\times \\dfrac{100}{100-20} = 1200 \\times \\dfrac{100}{80} = Rs.1500$
\nRequired Profit percentage = 30%
\nThen, the required Selling Price = 130% of Rs.1500 = Rs.1950<\/p>\n
\nThree successive discounts of 20% each and so SP=1000*(80\/100)(80\/100)(80\/100)
\nSP=512
\nProfit=512-500
\n=12<\/p>\n
