Q:

If a+b=5 and 3a+2b=20,then (3a+b)will be :

 

A) 20 B) 15
C) 25 D) 30

Answer:   C) 25



Explanation:

a+b=5   ...(1)    and    3a+2b=20 ...(2)

 

Multiplying (1) by 2 and subtracting from (2), we get : a=10.

 

Putting a=10 in (1), we get : b=-5

 

Therefore,   (3a+b) = 3 x 10+(-5)=30-5=25.

Q:

In a regular week, there are 5 working days and for each day, the working hours are 8. A man gets Rs. 2.40 per hour for regular work and Rs. 3.20 per hours for overtime. If he earns Rs. 432 in 4 weeks, then how many hours does he work for ?

A) 160 B) 175
C) 180 D) 195
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 175

Explanation:

Suppose the man works overtime for x hours.

Now, working hours in 4 weeks = (5 x 8 x 4) = 160.

Therefore,  160 * 2.40 + x * 3.20 = 432

 => 3.20x = 432 - 384 = 48

 => x = 15.

 Hence, total hours of work = (160 + 15) = 175.
