What is the price of an article costing Rs. 1400 after levying 13% VAT. Find it.
The present price of a motorcycle is Rs 225000. If its price is depreciated per year by 8%, after how many years the price of the motorcycle will be Rs 175204.8? Find it.
Given:
The present cost (C) = Rs. 225000
Rate of compound depreciation (R) = 10% p.a
Cost after depreciation (CT) = Rs 175204.8
To find: Time (T)
By Formula,
\(C_T=c\left(1-\frac R{100}\right)^T\)
Or, \(175204.8=225000\left(1-\frac8{100}\right)^T\)
Or, \(\frac{175204.8}{225000}=\left(1-0.08\right)^T\)
Or, \(0.778688=\left(0.92\right)^T\)
Or, \(\left(0.92\right)^3=\left(0.92\right)^T\)
Or, 3 = T
Hence, the required time is 3 years.
If the area of an equilateral triangle is \(36\sqrt3\) . Find its perimeter.
Given,
Area of an equilateral triangle (A) = \(36\sqrt3\) cm2
To find, Perimeter of the triangle (P)
By formula,
Area of an equilateral triangle (A) = \(\frac{\sqrt3}4a^2\)
or, \(36\sqrt3\) cm2 = \(\frac{\sqrt3}4a^2\)
or, \(\frac{4\times36\sqrt3cm^2}{\sqrt3}=a^2\)
or, a2 = 144cm2
or, a2 = (12cm)2
or, a = 12

and lateral surface area of the prism = 288cm2
To find, Height of the prism (CC')
Here,
Perimeter of the base (P) = AB + BC + AC
=8cm + 10cm + 6cm
=24cm
Now, by the formula,
The lateral surface area of the prism = perimeter of the base x Height
or, 288cm2 24cm x CC'
or, cc' = \(\frac{\displaystyle288cm^2}{24cm}\)
or, CC' = 12cm
Thereforem, height of the prism (CC') = 12cm.

Given,
O is the center of the circle
And BOD = 160°
To find: The value of x and y
Here,
(I) BAD = 1/2 BOD [Therefore, BAD is a circumference angle and BOD is a central angle standing on the same arc of a circle.]
or, x = (1/2) x 160°
or, x = 80°
(II) BAD + BCD = 180° [Therefore, being opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral]
or, 80° + y = 180°
or, y = 180° - 80°
or, y = 100°
Therefore, 80° and y = 100°

Given,
RT is a tangent, R is the point of contact,
QRT = 70° and PRT = 30°
To find, The measure of RPQ.
Here,
(I) QRS + QRT = 180° [Therefore, sum of the adjacent angles standing on a straight line]
or, QRS + 70° = 180°
or, QRS = 180° - 70°
=110°
(II) RPQ = QRS [Therefore, the angle made by a chord to the tangent of a circle at the point of contact is equal to the angle in the alternate segment.]
or, RPQ = 110°

= (1/2) x 27cm x 30cm x (1/2)
= 202.2cm2
Here,
Area of triangle PQR = (1/2) area of kite PQRS [ Diagonal so formed by joining the vertices made by equal sides of kite bisects the kite.]
or, 202.5cm2 = 1/2 area of kite PQRS
or, Area of kite PQRS = 405cm2
Find the class of the third quartile from the following data.
X | 0 - 20 | 20 - 40 | 40 - 60 | 60 - 80 | 80 - 100 |
CF | 4 | 10 | 20 | 28 | 35 |

= the value of \(\frac{(3\times35)^{th}}4\) item
= the value of 26.25th item
Here, CF just greater than 26.25 is 28 and it lies in the class ( 60- 80 )
Therefore, Third quartile class (Q3) = (60 - 80).
Find the probability of getting a free card or an ace of spade, when a card is drawn randomly from a well-shuffled pack of 52 cards.
Let, the event of getting a face card be F.
And the event of getting ace of spades be C.
Then, n(S) = 52, n(F) = 12 and n(C) = 1
To find, P(F∪C)
Here, F and C are mutually exclusive events.
Then, by formula
P(F∪C) = P(F) + P(C)
= \(\frac{n(F)}{n(S)}+\frac{n(C)}{n(S)}\)
= \(\frac{12}{52}+\frac1{52}\)
= \(\frac{12+1}{52}\)
= \(\frac{13}{52}\)
= \(\frac14\)
Therefore, the probability of getting a face card or an ace of spades is \(\frac14\).

In a group of 50 students, 20 like only math and 15 like only science. If the number of students who do not like any of the two subjects is double the number of students who like both subjects, find the number of students who like at most one subject by using Venn-Diagram.
Let, the set of students who like maths be M.
and the set of students who like science be S.
Then, n(U) = 50, no(S) = 15 and \(n(\overline{M\cup S})=2n(M\cap S)\)
To find, \(n(\overline{M\cap S)}\)
Let, \(n(M\cap S)\) = x
Then, \(n(\overline{M\cup S)}\) = 2x
Now, representing the above information in a Venn diagram, we get
From the above Venn diagram,
no (M) + no (S) + \(n(M\cap S)\) + \(n(\overline{M\cup S})\) = n(U)
or, 20 + 15 + x + 2x = 50
or, 35 + 3x = 50
or, 3x = 50-35
or, x = 15/3
or, x = 5
Therefore, \(n(\overline{M\cap S)}\) = n(U) - \(n(M\cap S)\) = 50 - 5 = 45
Therefore, The number of students who like at most one subject is 45.
The marked price of a laptop is Rs.75000. Allowing 15% discount and including the same percentage of VAT the laptop is sold. Find the cost that has to pay by the customer and the VAT amount.
Given,
Marked price = Rs. 75000
Discount percent = 15%
VAT percent = 15%
To find, SP with VAT and amount of VAT
By formula,
Selling price (SP) = MP - discount % of MP
= Rs.75000-15% of Rs.75000
= Rs. 75000 - (15/100) x Rs. 75000
= Rs. 75000 - Rs. 11250
= Rs. 63750
Again,
Amount of VAT = VAT % of SP
= 15% of Rs.63750
= (15/100) x Rs. 63750
= Rs. 9562.50
An umbrella is made by stitching 12 pieces of triangular cloths. If the measure of each piece of cloth is 42cm, 42cm, and 21cm, how much cloth is required to make the umbrella? If per square meter the cost of the cloth is Rs. 1250, find the cost of cloth required to make the umbrella.
Given,
In an umbrella,
No. of triangular pieces of cloth = 12
Length of each of two equal sides of triangular pieces (a) = 42cm = 42m/100 = 0.42m
and the length of third side (b) = 21cm = 21/100 = 0.21
and the cost of per sq. meter of cloth (C) = Rs. 1250
To find: (I) Total area of cloth
(ii) Total cost of cloth
By formula,
Area of each isoceles triangle piece of cloth = \(\frac b4\sqrt{4a^2-b^2}\)
= \(\frac{0.21m}4\times\sqrt{4\times(0.42m)^2-(0.21m)^2}\)
= 0.0525m x \(\sqrt{0.7056m^2-0.0441m^2}\)
= 0.0525m x \(\sqrt{0.6615m^2}\)
= 0.0525m x 0.8133m
= 0.0427m2
Total area of cloth (A) = Area of each piece x No. of pieces cloth
= 0.0427m2 x 12
= 0.5124m2
Now,
The total cost of cloth (T) = Cost of per sq. meter of cloth x area
= Rs. 1250 x 0.5124
= Rs. 640.50
Total area of cloth (A) = 0.5124m2
and total cost of cloth (T) = Rs.640.50
Find the HCF of 8m4 + 27mn3 , 8m3 n + 2m2 n2 - 15mn3 and 4m3 n - 9mn3 .
Here,
First expression
= 8m4 + 27mn3
= m(8m3 + 27n3)
= m{(2m)3 + (3n)3}
= m(2m + 3n) (4m2 - 6mn + 9n2)
Second expression
= 8m3n + 2m2 n2 - 15mn3
= mn(8m2 + 12mn - 10mn - 15n2)
= mn{4m(2m+3n)- 5n(2m + 3n)}
= mn(2m+3n) (4m-5n)
Third expression
= 4m3n - 9mn3
= mn(4m2 - 9n2)
= mn{(2m)2 - (3n)2}
= mn(2m + 3n) (2m -3n)
∴ HCF of the given expressions is = m(2m+3n)
Solve: 9a - 10 x 3a + 9 = 0
Here,
9a - 10 x 3a + 9 = 0
or, (3a)2 - 10 x 3a + 9 = 0
Let, 3a = x, we get
X2 - 10x + 9 = 0
x2 - 9x -x + 9 = 0
or, x(x - 9) - 1(x - 9) = 0
or, (x - 9) (x - 1) = 0
Now, substituting the value of x, we get
(3a - 9) (3a - 1) = 0
Either, 3a - 9 = 0 or, 3a = 9 or, 3a = 32 or, a = 2 |
Or, 3a - 1 = 0 or, 3a = 1 or, 3a = 30 or, a = 0 |
Therefore a = 0 or 2.

The shadow of a tower is formed on the ground when the angle made by the sun's ray with the ground is 30°. If the height of the tower is 50m, find the length of the shadow of the tower.
Let, AB be the height of a tower, BC be the length of the shadow of the tower and ACB be the angle made by the sun's rays with the ground.
Then, by the question
AB = 50m, ACB = 30°, BC = ?
Here, in right-angled triangle ABC
Tan 30° = AB/BC
or, \(\frac1{\sqrt3}\) = \(\frac{50m}{BC}\)
or, BC = \(50\sqrt3m\)
or, BC = 5- x 1.732m
or, BC = 86.6m
Therefore, the length of the shadow of the tower is 86.6m.

Calculate the difference between half yearly compound interest and simple interest of Rs. 8000 for 1(1/2) years at the rate of 10% per annum.
Given,
Principal (P) = Rs.8000
Rate of interest (R) = 10% p.a
Time (T) = 1(1/2) years = 3/2 years
To find C. I compounded half-yearly- Simple interest.
By the formula,
Simple interest (SI) = \(\frac{P\times T\times R}{100}\)
\(\frac{8000\times{\displaystyle\frac32}\times10}{100}\)
= Rs. 120000/100
= Rs. 1200
Again by formula,
CI compounded half yearly = \(p\left\{(1+\frac R{200})^{2T}-1\right\}\)
= Rs. 8000 \(\left\{(1+\frac{10}{200})^{2\frac32}-1\right\}\)
= Rs. 8000 {(1.05)3 - 1}
= Rs. 8000 (1.15-1)
= Rs. 8000 x 0.15
= Rs. 1261
Therefore, the difference between C.I. compounded half-yearly and simple interest = Rs.1261 - Rs.1200
Rs.61. Ans
Given solid is made of cone and cylinder. The base area of the cylinder is 100 sq. cm and the height of the cylinder is 3cm. If the volume of the whole solid is 600 cubic cm, find the height of the whole solid.
Given,
In a combined solid,
Area of the circular base = 100cm2
Height of the cylinder (h1) = 3cm
Volume of the combined solid (V) = 600cm2
To find: Height of the combined solid (h)
By formula,
The volume of the cylinder (V1) = area of the base x height
= 100cm2 x 3cm
= 300cm3
Therefore volume of the come (V2) = combined volume - volume of cylinder
= 600cm3 - 300cm3
= 300cm3
Again, by formula
Volume of the cone (V2) = 1/3 area of base x height
or, 300cm3 = (1/3) x 100cm2 x h2
or, 900cm3 / 100cm2 = h2
or, h2 = 9cm
Therefore, the volume of cone (h2) = 9cm
Now, h = h1 + h2
= 3cm + 9cm
= 12cm
∴ The height of the combined solid (h) = 12cm.
The area of a rectangular room is 45 meter square. If the length of the room is 3m less and breadth is 1m more, it will be a square room, find the length and the breadth of the room.
Let, length of the rectangular room (l) = x m
and breadth of the room (b) = y m
Here,
According to the first condition,
xy = 45 ..........(i)
Again, according to the second condition,
x - 3 = y + 1
x = y + 1 + 3
x = y + 4 ........(ii)
Putting the value of x from equation(ii) and equation (i), we get
(y + 4)y = 45
or, y2 + 4y - 45 = 0
or, y2 + (9-5)y - 45 = 0
or, y2 + 9y - 5y - 45 = 0
or, y(y + 9) - 5(y + 9) = 0
or, (y + 9) (y - 5) = 0
Either y + 9 = 0 ..........(iii)
Or, y - 5 = 0 ..........(iv)
From equation (iii)
y + 9 = 0
or, y = -9 which is impossible because length and breadth cannot be negative.
or, y = 5
Now, putting the value of y in equation (ii), we got,
x = 5 + 4
= 9
∴ Length of the room (l) = 9m and breadth of the room (b) = 5cm.
