Question 3 of 10
3. Question
Half the perimeter of a rectangular garden, whose length is 4m more than its width is 36m. The area of the garden is
Correct
Explanation:
Let the width be x.
Then length be x+4
According to the question
l+b=36
⇒ x+(x+4)=36
⇒ 2x+4=36
⇒ 2x=36-4
⇒ 2x=32
⇒ x=16.
Hence, The length of garden will be 20 m and width will be 16 m.
Area = length × breath = 20×16 = 320 m²
Incorrect
Explanation:
Let the width be x.
Then length be x+4
According to the question
l+b=36
⇒ x+(x+4)=36
⇒ 2x+4=36
⇒ 2x=36-4
⇒ 2x=32
⇒ x=16.
Hence, The length of garden will be 20 m and width will be 16 m.
Area = length × breath = 20×16 = 320 m²

Correct
Explanation – The system of linear equations a1x + b1y + c1= 0 and a2x + b2y + c2 = 0 has no solution if the equation satisfy the condition a1/a2 = b1/b2 ≠ c1/c2
Incorrect
Explanation – The system of linear equations a1x + b1y + c1= 0 and a2x + b2y + c2 = 0 has no solution if the equation satisfy the condition a1/a2 = b1/b2 ≠ c1/c2

Correct
Incorrect
Question 6 of 10
6. Question
Ritu can row downstream 20 km in 2 hours and upstream 4 km in 2 hours. The speed of the current is
Correct
Explanation
Let speed of boat = x km/h
speed of current = y km/h
∴ Downstream speed = (x+y) km/h
Upstream speed = (x−y) km/h
also,
Speed = Distance/Time
⇒ Time = Distance/Speed
According to question,
In downstream, 20/(x+y) = 2
x + y = 10 ….. (i)
In upstream, 4/(x-y) = 2
x – y = 2 ….. (ii)
Subtracting eq. (ii) from (i), we get
2y=8
⇒ y=4
Therefore, the speed of current is 4 km/h.
Incorrect
Explanation
Let speed of boat = x km/h
speed of current = y km/h
∴ Downstream speed = (x+y) km/h
Upstream speed = (x−y) km/h
also,
Speed = Distance/Time
⇒ Time = Distance/Speed
According to question,
In downstream, 20/(x+y) = 2
x + y = 10 ….. (i)
In upstream, 4/(x-y) = 2
x – y = 2 ….. (ii)
Subtracting eq. (ii) from (i), we get
2y=8
⇒ y=4
Therefore, the speed of current is 4 km/h.
Question 7 of 10
7. Question
The sum of two numbers is 8. If their sum is four times their difference, then the numbers are
Correct
Explanation:
x + y = 8
⇒ x = 8-y …… (1)
⇒ x + y = 4.(x – y) ….. (2)
Substitute (1) in (2)
8= 4x-4y
⇒ 2=x-y
⇒ 2=8-y-y
⇒ 2y=8-2
⇒ y=3
therefore,
x=8-3=5
Hence, the required numbers are 5 and 3.
Incorrect
Explanation:
x + y = 8
⇒ x = 8-y …… (1)
⇒ x + y = 4.(x – y) ….. (2)
Substitute (1) in (2)
8= 4x-4y
⇒ 2=x-y
⇒ 2=8-y-y
⇒ 2y=8-2
⇒ y=3
therefore,
x=8-3=5
Hence, the required numbers are 5 and 3.
Question 8 of 10
8. Question
The value of ‘k’ so that the system of equations 3x – 4y – 7 = 0 and 6x – ky – 5 = 0 have a unique solution is
Correct
Explanation
Given:
a1 =3, a2 =6, b1 =−4, b2=−k, c1=−7 and c2=−5
If there is a unique solution, then
a1/a2 ≠ b1/b2
⇒ 3/6 ≠ -4/-k
⇒ -3k ≠ -4×6
⇒ k ≠ 8
Incorrect
Explanation
Given:
a1 =3, a2 =6, b1 =−4, b2=−k, c1=−7 and c2=−5
If there is a unique solution, then
a1/a2 ≠ b1/b2
⇒ 3/6 ≠ -4/-k
⇒ -3k ≠ -4×6
⇒ k ≠ 8
Question 9 of 10
9. Question
In ΔABC, if ∠A = x°, ∠B = 3x° and ∠C = y°. If 3y – 5x = 30, then ∠B =
Correct
Explanation:
Here, A=x, B=3x, C=y.
180= 4x+y …. (i) (Sum of angles of a triangles= x+3x+y)
180-4x=y ….. (ii)
Also, 3y-5x=30 …. (iii)
Substituting the value of (ii) in (iii)
3(180-4x)-5x=30
⇒ 540-12x-5x=30
⇒ -17x= 30-540
⇒ 17x= 510
⇒ x= 30 …. (iv)
But angle B = 3x
Therefore angle B = 3×30 = 90°
Incorrect
Explanation:
Here, A=x, B=3x, C=y.
180= 4x+y …. (i) (Sum of angles of a triangles= x+3x+y)
180-4x=y ….. (ii)
Also, 3y-5x=30 …. (iii)
Substituting the value of (ii) in (iii)
3(180-4x)-5x=30
⇒ 540-12x-5x=30
⇒ -17x= 30-540
⇒ 17x= 510
⇒ x= 30 …. (iv)
But angle B = 3x
Therefore angle B = 3×30 = 90°
