  • Question 1/20
    1 / -0

    ABCD passes through the centres of the three circles as shown in the figure where AB= 2 cm and CD= 1 cm. If the area of middle circle is the average of the areas of the other two circles, then what is the length (in cm) of BC?

    Solutions

    Given, AB =2, CD =1 and let BC = x

    Area of middle circle = Average of areas of other two circle

    =

    = BC

    We can say that the bucket is in the form of frustum:

    r = 3 cm and R = 6 cm, h = 7 cm

    Now,

    Volume of the frustum =

    Hence, option b is the correct answer.

  • Question 4/20
    1 / -0

    Solutions

    Let the other two numbers be  and .

    Now, for the minimum value of  occurs when

    Hence, option b is the correct answer.

  • Question 5/20
    1 / -0

    Out of three numbers A, B and C, A is the largest number, and the ratio of B is to C is 4 : 5. If the HCF of A and B is 16, LCM of B and C is 240 and LCM of A and B is 192, then what is the LCM of A, B and C?
    Solutions

    HCF of A and B is 16

    LCM (B, C) = 240

    LCM (A, B) = 192

    Let A be 16a and B be 16b

    LCM of B and C is 240

    B = 16b = 48

    C = 20b = 60

    LCM of A and B is 192

    LCM (16a, 48) = 192

    A = 16a = 64

    LCM of A, B and C = LCM of 64, 48 and 60 = 960.

    Hence, option b is the correct answer.

  • Question 7/20
    1 / -0

    If x X y denotes H.C.F. of x and y and x @ y denotes LCM of x and y, then the value of (222 X185 ) @ 481 is:
    Solutions
    x X y denotes H.C.F. of x and y

    222 X 185 denotes H.C.F. of 222 and 185

    222 =

    185 =

    H.C.F. of 222 and 185 = 37

    x @ y denotes LCM of x and y

    37 @ 481 denotes LCM of 37 and 481

    Hence, LCM of 37 and 481 = 481

    So, answer will be 481.

  • Question 18/20
    1 / -0

    The cumulative frequency curve of a frequency distribution with 6 classes and total frequency 60 is a straight line. Consider the following statements.

    i. The first and the last classes have a frequency of 10 each

    ii. Both the middle classes have a total frequency of 30

    iii. The frequency distribution does not have a mode

    Which of the statements given above are correct?

    Solutions

    Since, the frequency is a straight line, so we take that all the classes have the same frequency, 10 each.

    i. It is true that first and the last class have the same frequency of 10 each

    ii. Both the middle class have frequency, 10+10 = 20

    iii. Since, all have equal frequency, so we cannot determine the mode.

    Therefore, only i and iii statements are correct.

    Hence, option b is the correct answer.
