Q:

Solve the following equations and find the value of abc?

 

A) 3 B) 6
C) 9 D) 12
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 6

Explanation:

From the given equations,

(a+b+c)2=a2+b2+c2+2(ab+bc+ca)
(6)2=14 + 2(ab + bc + ca)
36 - 14 = 2(ab + bc + ca)
22/2 = ab + bc + ca
ab + bc + ca = 11

a3 + b3 + c3 - 3abc = (a + b + c)(a2 + b2 + c2 - ab - bc - ca)
= (6) (14 - 11)
=(6)(3)
=18

Since, a3 + b3 + c3 - 3abc = 18

36 - 3abc = 18

-3abc = 18 - 36

-3abc = -18

abc = 6.

Q:

A sum of Rs.1550 was lent partly at 8% p.a. simple interest. The total interest received after 3 years was Rs.300. The ratio of the money lent at 5% to that lent at 8% is :

A) 5:8 B) 6:7
C) 16:15 D) 17:18
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 16:15

Explanation:

let the sum lent at 5% be Rs.x and that lent at 8% be Rs.(1550-x). then, 

 

Interest on x at 5% for 3 years + interest on (1550-x) at 8% for 3 years = 300

 

 x*5*3100+1500-x*8*3100=300 

 

 x=800

 

Required ratio =  x : (1550-x) = 800 : (1550-800) = 800 : 750 = 16 : 15
