Q:

O and O' are the center of the two circles with radii 7cm and 9cm respectively. The distance between the centers is 20cm. If PQ be the transverse common tangent to the circles, which cuts OO' at X, what is the length of O'X in cm ?

A) 10 B) 6
C) 35/4 D) 45/4
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 45/4

Explanation:

As clear from the figure itself, triangle OQX and triangle O'PX are similar.

So,

OQ/O'P = OX/O'X

=> OX = (7/9)xO'X

And since, OX + O'X = 20

=> (7/9)xO'X + O'X = 20

=> O'X = 45/4

Q:

Akhil after travelling 50 km meets Raju who suggests him to go slower. He then proceeds at ¾ of his former speed and arrives at his destination 35 minutes late. Had the meeting occurred 24 km further Akhil would have reached its destination 25 minutes late. What is the initial speed of Akhil?

 

A) 48 kmph B) 36 kmph
C) 24 kmph D) 20 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 48 kmph

Explanation:

Let the initial speed of Akhil be '4p' kmph

Then speed after decrease in speed = '3p' kmph

We know that, 

Change in speed == Change in time

According to the given data,

243p - 244p = 35 - 2560=> p = 12

 

Hence, the initial speed of Akhil = 4p = 4 x 12 = 48 kmph.

Q:

X and Y entered into partnership with Rs. 700 and Rs. 600 respectively. After another 3 months, X withdrew two- sevenths of his stock but after 3 months, he puts back three-fifths of what he had withdrawn. The total profit at the end of the year is Rs. 726. How much of this should X receive?

A) Rs. 336 B) Rs. 366
C) Rs. 633 D) Rs. 663
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 366

Explanation:

Profit ratio X & Y = (700 × 3) + (700 × 5/7× 3) + (700× 5/7 + 200 × 3/5 )× 6 : 600 ×12
X:Y= 7320 : 7200= 183:180
∴ X’s share from profit = 183 × 726/(183+180) = Rs. 366.
