Q:

In the following question, two equations numbered 1 and 2 are given. You have to solve both the equations and determine the relation between a and b.

1. $5 a^{2} - 18 a + 9 = 0$

2. $3 b^{2} + 5 b - 2 = 0$

A) a >= b	B) a <= b
C) a < b	D) a > b

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) a > b

Explanation:

From solving 1 and 2 we get,

1.

5a(a-3)-3(a-3) = 0

(5a-3)(a-3) = 0

a = 3 or 3/5

2.

3b(b+2)-1(b+2) = 0

b = -2 or b = 1/3

Here when a = 3, a > b for b = -2 and b = 1/3

when a = 3/5. a > b for b = -2 and b = 1/3.

Hence, it is clear that a > b.

Q:

Read each part of the sentence to find out if there is any error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. The number of that part is the answer.

$\frac{A s m u c h a s i a d m i r e h i m f o r h i s t a l e n t}{(1)} / \frac{a n d e n d e a v o r t o a c h i e v e s u c c e s s}{(2)} /$

$\frac{I c a n n o t f o r g i v e h i m f o r b e i n g s o}{(3)} / \frac{r u d e t o t h e n o t s o w e l l t o d o o n e s}{(4)}$

A) (1)	B) (2)
C) (3)	D) (4)

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) (1)

Explanation:

The error lies in part (1).

As the phrase 'as much as' needs to be replaced with 'much as I'. This is because we use 'as much as' for comparing two qualities or things. But here in the given sentence a contrast is given in the latter part of the sentence. So we need a conjunction like 'even though' 'although' etc...

'Much as I' also serves the same purpose.

Q:

Compound interest on a certain sum of money at 20% per annum for 2 years is Rs.5995. What is the SI on the same money at 8% per annum for 6 years ?

A) Rs. 5989	B) Rs. 6540
C) Rs. 7844	D) Rs. 6789

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 6540

Explanation:

Given C.I = 5984, R = 20% , T = 2yrs

$C . I = P [(1 + {(\frac{20}{100})}^{2}) - 1]$

5984 = $C.I=P\left [ \left ( 1&amp;plus;\left ( \frac{20}{100}\right )^{2} \right )-1 \right ]$

=> P = (5995x25)/11

P = Rs. 13625

Now S.I = PTR/100

SI = (13625 x 8 x 6)/100 = Rs. 6540

Q:

Assuming the given statements to be true, find which of the two conclusions A and B given below is/are definitely true.

Statements: C < T < L= P > Q, N > C > Y

Conclusions: A. P > Y B. Y < P

A) only conclusion B is true.	B) only conclusion A is true.
C) neither conclusion I nor II is true.	D) either conclusion I or II is true.

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) only conclusion B is true.

Explanation:

From given statements, we can conclude that

N > C < T < L= P > Q .....(1)

Here given that C > Y but in eq(1) we got that C < T < T <= P => Y is definitely less than P.

So only conclusion B is True.
