In the following questions two quadratic equations are given in variables X and Y. You have to solve these equations and determine the relation between X and Y.
I. X2 – 21X + 110 = 0
II. Y2 = 81
X2 – 21X + 110 = 0
⇒ X2 – 10X – 11X + 110 = 0
⇒ X(X – 10) – 11(X – 10) = 0
⇒ (X – 10) (X – 11) = 0
⇒ X = 10 & 11
Y2 = 81
⇒ Y2 = (± 9)2
⇒ Y = +9 & –9
Hence, X > Y
In the following question two equations are given in variables x and y. You have to solve these equations and determine the relation between x and y.
I. x2 + 2x – 24 = 0
II. y2 + 13y + 40 = 0
⇒ x2 + 6x – 4x – 24 = 0
⇒ x(x + 6) – 4(x + 6) =0
⇒ (x + 6)(x – 4) = 0
⇒ x = −6, 4
⇒ y2 + 8y + 5y + 40 = 0
⇒ y(y + 8) + 5(y + 8) = 0
⇒ (y + 8) (y + 5) = 0
⇒ y = −8, −5
In the following question two equations are given in variables X and Y. You have to solve these equations and determine the relation between X and Y.
I. X2 + 9X – 22 = 0
II. Y2 + 11Y – 26 = 0
X2 + 9X – 22 = 0
⇒ X2 + 11X – 2X – 22 = 0
⇒ X(X + 11) – 2(X + 11) = 0
⇒ (X + 11)(X – 2) = 0
⇒ X = –11 & 2
Y2 + 11Y – 26 = 0
⇒ Y2 + 13Y – 2Y – 26 = 0
⇒ Y(Y + 13) – 2(Y + 13) = 0
⇒ (Y + 13)(Y – 2) = 0
⇒ Y = –13 & 2
Hence, no relation can be established between X and Y.
I. 4X2 – 13X – 12 = 0
II. Y2 – 7Y – 60 = 0
⇒ 4X2 – 16X + 3X – 12 = 0
⇒ 4X(X – 4) + 3(X – 4) = 0
⇒ (X – 4)(4X + 3) = 0
⇒ X = 4, – 3/4
⇒ Y2– 12Y + 5Y – 60 = 0
⇒ Y(Y – 12) + 5(Y – 12) = 0
⇒ (Y – 12)(Y + 5) = 0
⇒ Y = 12, –5
I. X2 – 4X + 4 = 0
II. Y2 – 12Y + 27 = 0
X2 – 4X + 4 = 0
⇒ X2 – 2X – 2X + 4 = 0
⇒ X(X – 2) – 2(X – 2) = 0
⇒ (X – 2)(X – 2) = 0
⇒ X = 2 & 2
Y2 – 12Y + 27 = 0
⇒ Y2 – 12Y + 27 = 0
⇒ Y2 – 9Y – 3Y + 27 = 0
⇒ Y(Y – 9) – 3(Y – 9) = 0
⇒ (Y – 9)(Y – 3) = 0
⇒ Y = 9 & 3
Hence, Y > X
Directions For Questions
Direction: Study the following table carefully and answer the questions that follow.
The table given below shows the cost price and profit percent of two shops A and B for 4 products – P, Q, R and S.

If the successive discounts offered on marked price of product S at shop A are 20% and 20%, then find the marked price of product S at shop A.
Let the marked price of product S at shop A = Rs. 100a, then
⇒ 64a = 576
⇒ a = 9
Hence, the marked price of product S at shop A = 100a = 100 × 9 = Rs. 900
What is the difference between the selling prices of product Q at shops A and B?
If the marked prices of product P at shop B and product R at shop A are Rs. 528 and Rs. 435 respectively, find the difference between the discount offered (in Rs.) on product P at shop B and product R at shop A.
Discount offered = Marked Price – Selling Price
Discount offered on product P at shop B = 528 − 264 = Rs. 264
Discount offered on product R at shop A = 435 − 348 = Rs. 87
Hence, the required difference = 264 – 87 = Rs. 177.
Profit earned on another product T at shop A is Rs. 78 more than the profit earned on product S at shop B. If the cost price of product T is 25% more than the cost price of product P, find the profit percent of product T at shop A.
Profit on product T at shop A = 78 + 16% of 450 = 78 + 72 = Rs. 150
Cost price of product T = 240 + 25% of 240 = 240 + 60 = Rs. 300
Hence, the required percentage = 150/300 × 100 = 50%
What is the approximate average selling price of all the given 4 products at shop A?
