SOLUTION
S1. Ans.(b)
Sol. Pattern is
3³ + 1 = 28
4³ + 2 = 66
5³+ 3 = 128
6³ + 4 = 220
7³ + 5 = 348
8³ + 6= 518
∴ Wrong term = 224
S2. Ans.(a)
Sol.
Wrong number = 246
S3. Ans.(a)
Sol. Pattern is
–9³, –7³, –5³, –3³, –1³
∴ Wrong term = 439
S4. Ans.(d)
Sol. Pattern is
×4 + 5, ×5+ 4, × 6 + 3, × 7+2, ×8 +1
∴ Wrong term = 780
S5. Ans.(a)
Sol. Pattern is
16 × 2.5 = 40
40 × 2.5 = 100
100 × 2.5 = 250
250 × 2.5 = 625
625 × 2.5 = 1562.5
So, 630 is wrong term
S11. Ans.(e)
Sol.
I. 2x² - 7x+ 3 =0
⇒ 2x² - 6x – x + 3 = 0
⇒ (x- 3) (2x- 1) = 0
x =3, 1/2
II. 2𝑦
2 − 7𝑦 + 6 = 0
⇒ 2y² - 4y -3y+ 6 = 0
⇒ (y- 2) (2y - 3) = 0
⇒ 𝑦 = 2,
3/2
No relation between x & y
S12. Ans.(a)
Sol.
I. 4𝑥
2 + 16𝑥 + 15 = 0
⇒ 4𝑥
2 + 10𝑥 + 6𝑥 + 15 = 0
⇒ (2x + 5) (2x + 3) = 0
⇒ 𝑥 =
,-5/2
−3/2
II. 2𝑦
2 + 3𝑦 + 1 = 0
⇒ (2y+ 1) (y+ 1) = 0
⇒ 𝑦 = −1, −1/2
y>x
S13. Ans.(b)
Sol.
I. 9x² - 45x + 56 = 0
⇒ 9x² - 21x – 24x + 56 = 0
⇒ (3x – 7) (3x- 8) = 0
⇒ 𝑥 =7/3,8/3
II. 4𝑦
2 − 17𝑦 + 18 = 0
⇒ 4y² - 8y – 9y + 18 = 0
⇒ (y- 2) (4y- 9) = 0
⇒ y= 2, 9/4
x >y
S14. Ans.(c)
Sol.
I. 2x² + 11x + 14 = 0
⇒ 2x² + 4x+ 7x+ 14 = 0
⇒ (x+ 2) (2x+ 7) = 0
⇒ x = -2, -7/2
II. 2y² + 15y + 28 = 0
⇒ 2y² + 8y+ 7y+ 28 = 0
⇒ (y+ 4) (2y+ 7) = 0
⇒ y = -4, −7/2
x ≥ y
S15. Ans.(a)
Sol.
I. 6x² + 11x+ 4 = 0
⇒ 6x² +8x+ 3x+ 4 = 0
⇒ (3x+ 4) (2x+ 1) = 0
⇒ x = −4/3
, −1/2
II. 4𝑦
2 − 7𝑦 − 2 = 0
⇒ 4y² - 8y +y – 2 = 0
⇒ (y – 2) (4y+ 1) = 0
⇒ 𝑦 = 2, −1/4
y > x
