The areas of three consecutive faces of a cuboid are 12 cm², 20cm² and 15 cm², then the volume (in cm³) of the cuboid is

A) 60 B) 55
C) 45 D) 40
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 60

Explanation:

From the given data,

let the length, breadth and height of the cuboid are m, n, r

m x n = 12

n x r = 20

r x m = 15

 

Hence, m x n x n x r x r x m = 12 x 20 x 15

mnr = sqrt of (12x20x15) = 60 cub.cm.

Q:

Two cars, a Maruthi and a Toyato, start at the same time in opposite directions from two distinct points A and B. Starting from A, the Maruthi reaches B in 6 hrs 20 minutes and the Toyato starting from B, reaches A in 4 hrs 45 minutes. What is the speed of the Toyato, if the speed of the Maruthi is 60 Km/h?

A) 75 kmph B) 80 kmph
C) 86 kmph D) 90 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 80 kmph

Explanation:

Let the distance between A and B = D

Given the speed of maruthi = 60 kmph

Maruthi reaches from A to B in 6 hrs 20 min = 6 + 20/60 = 6 1/3 hrs

Now, the distance between A & B = D = speed x time = 60 x 19/3 = 380 kms

As the distance is same for toyato also,

given time for toyato = 4 hrs 45 min = 4 + 45/60 = 4 3/4 = 19/4 hrs

speed of toyato = distance/time = 380/19/4 = 380 x 4/19 = 80 kmph.

Q:

(3x + 2) (2x - 5) = ax² + kx + n. What is the value of  a - n + k ?

A) 4 B) 1
C) 5 D) 3
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 5

Explanation:

(3x + 2) (2x - 5) = ax2+kx+n ...............(1)

 

But (3x + 2)(2x - 5) = 6x2-11x-10........(2)

 

so by comparing (1) & (2),

 

we get a= 6, k= -11 , n= -10

 

(a - n + k) = 6 + 10 - 11 = 5.
