Q:

Find the quadratic equations whose roots are the reciprocals of the roots of 2x2+5x+3?

A)  3x2+5x+2=0   

B) 5x2+3x+2=0 

C) 3x2-5x-2=0   

D)  None



A) A B) B
C) C D) D
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) A

Explanation:

The quadratic equation whose roots are reciprocal of 2x2+5x+3=0 can be obtained by replacing x by 1/x.

 

Hence, 2(1/x)(1/x)+ 5(1/x) + 3 = 0

 

=> 3x2+5x+2=0

Q:

A box contains 4 different black balls, 3 different red balls and 5 different blue balls. In how many ways can the balls be selected if every selection must have at least 1 black ball and one red ball ?

A) 24 - 1  

B) 2425-1   

C) (24-1)(23-1)25   

D) None 

A) A B) B
C) C D) D
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) C

Explanation:

It is explicitly given that all the 4 black balls are different, all the 3 red balls are different and all the 5 blue balls are different. Hence this is a case where all are distinct objects.

 

Initially let's find out the number of ways in which we can select the black balls. Note that at least 1 black ball must be included in each selection.

 

Hence, we can select 1 black ball from 4 black balls
or 2 black balls from 4 black balls.
or 3 black balls from 4 black balls.
or 4 black balls from 4 black balls.

 

Hence, number of ways in which we can select the black balls

 

= 4C1 + 4C2 + 4C3 + 4C4
= 24-1 ........(A)

 

Now let's find out the number of ways in which we can select the red balls. Note that at least 1 red ball must be included in each selection.

 

Hence, we can select 1 red ball from 3 red balls
or 2 red balls from 3 red balls
or 3 red balls from 3 red balls

 

Hence, number of ways in which we can select the red balls
= 3C1 + 3C2 + 3C3
=23-1........(B)

 

Hence, we can select 0 blue ball from 5 blue balls (i.e, do not select any blue ball. In this case, only black and red balls will be there)
or 1 blue ball from 5 blue balls
or 2 blue balls from 5 blue balls
or 3 blue balls from 5 blue balls
or 4 blue balls from 5 blue balls
or 5 blue balls from 5 blue balls.

 

Hence, number of ways in which we can select the blue balls
= 5C0 + 5C1 + 5C2 + … + 5C5
= 25..............(C)

 

From (A), (B) and (C), required number of ways
=  2524-123-1

Q:

Maheshwari wants to buy 7 floors in an 68 storied building whose numbering stars from 1 upto 68. But she has to follow certain rules which are as follows :

1) None of the floor should be a prime number

2) None of the digit of the floor should be a prime number

3) Maheshwari cannot buy the 1st floor as it is being assigned to the architect.

So how many options are left with Maheshwari to buy the floors ?

A) 11 B) 17
C) 13 D) 19
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 17

Explanation:

Since floor starts form the 1 therefore 2 will be the 1st floor.
Form 1 to 10 only 4,6,8,9,10 are not prime.
Form 11 to 20 only 14 ,16,18 are not prime also non of their digits are prime.
From 21 to 30 each number has a prime number so it must no be consider.
In between 40 to 49 we have to consider only 40,44,46,48,49.
50 to 59 follow either of the condition so we have too neglect it.
In between 60 to 68 60,64,66,68.
total option = 17.

Q:

In a group of persons travelling in a bus, 6 persons can speak Tamil, 15 can speak Hindi and 6 can speak Gujarati. In that group, none can speak any other language. If 2 persons in the group can speak two languages and one person can speak all the three languages, then how many persons are there in the group ? 

A) 21 B) 22
C) 23 D) 24
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 23

Explanation:

Let us assume the two persons who can speak two languages speak Hindi and Tamil. The third person then speaks all the three languages.

Tamil – Number of persons who can speak is 6. Only Tamil 6 – 2 – 1 = 3

Hindi - Number of persons who can speak is 15. Only Hindi 15 – 2 – 1 12

Gujarati – Number of persons who can speak is 6. Only Gujarati 6 – 1 = 5

Thus the number of persons who can speak only one language is 3 + 12 + 5 = 20

Number of persons who can speak two languages = 2

Number of person who an speak all the languages = 1

Total number of persons = 23.
