Q:

A merchant buys two items for Rs. 7500. One item he sells at a profit of 16% and the other item at 14% loss. In the deal, the merchant makes neither any profit nor any loss. What is the difference between the selling price of both the items?

A) Rs. 620 B) Rs. 654
C) Rs. 725 D) Rs. 747
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs. 620

Explanation:

Let the C.P of one item is Rs. P
and that of other is Rs. (7500 - P)

According to the data given
C.P = S.P
=> Px(116/100) + (7500-P)x(86/100) = 7500
=> 30P = 105000
=> P = 3500

Required difference between selling prices
= Rs. [(3500/100) x 116] - [(4000/100) x 86]
= 4060-3440
= Rs. 620

Q:

The altitude drawn to the base of an isosceles triangle is 8 cm and the perimeter is 32 cm. Find the area of the triangle.

A) 24 B) 48
C) 60 D) 72
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 48

Explanation:

Let ABC be the isosceles triangle and AD be the altitude 

Let AB = AC = x. Then, BC = (32 - 2x). 

Since, in an isosceles triangle, the altitude bisects the base,
so BD = DC = (16 - x).
In triangle ADC,AC2=AD2+DC2 

⇒x2=82+16-x2⇒x=10 

BC = (32- 2x) = (32 - 20) cm = 12 cm. 

Hence, required area =  12*BC*AD=12*12*8=48cm2
