Quadratic Equation for RBI Assistant
Directions: In each of these questions, two equations (I) and (II) are given.You have to solve both the equations and give answer.
Q.1. I. x3 – 4913 = 0 II. y2 – 361 = 0
A. if x < y
B. if x = y or relationship between x and y can't be established
C. if x > y
D. if x ≥ y
E. if x ≤ y
Solution:
or, x3 = 4913
x = 17
or, y = ± 19
While comparing the values of x and y, one root value of y lies between the root values of x
Hence, option D is correct.
Q.2. I. x2 = 361 II. y3 = 7269 + 731
A. if x < y
B. if x > y
C. if x ≥ y
D. if x ≤ y
E. if x = y or relationship between x and y can't be established
Solution:
I. x2 = 361
x = ± 19
II. y3 = 7269 + 731
y3 = 8000
y = 20
x < y
Hence, option A is correct.
Q.3. I. 15x2 + x – 6 = 0 II. 5y2 – 23y + 12 = 0
A. if x > y
B. if x ≤ y
C. if x ≥ y
D. if x < y
E. if x = y or relationship between x and y can't be established
Solution:
I. 15x2 + x – 6 = 0
15x2 + 10x – 9x – 6 = 0
5x (3x + 2) – 3 (3x + 2) = 0
(5x – 3) (3x + 2) = 0
x = | 3 | , – | 2 |
5 | 3 |
II. 5y2 – 23y + 12 = 0
5y2 – 20y – 3y + 12 = 0
5y (y – 4) – 3 (y – 4) = 0
(y – 4) (5y – 3) = 0
y = 4, | 3 |
5 |
x ≤ y
Hence, option B is correct.
Q.4. I. x2 + (343)1/3 = 56 II. (y)4/3 × (y)5/3 – 295 = 217
A. if x > y
B. if x ≤ y
C. if x ≥ y
D. if x < y
E. if x = y or relationship between x and y can't be established
Solution:
I. x2 + (343)1/3 = 56
x2 + 7 = 56
x2 = 49
∴ x = √49 = ±7
(y)3 = 217 + 295
(y)3 = 512 = (8)3
or, y = 8
Here, x < y
Hence, option D is correct.
Q.5. I. 5x + 4y = 8 II. 3x + 2y = 4
A. if x > y
B. if x ≤ y
C. if x ≥ y
D. if x < y
E. if x = y or relationship between x and y can't be established
Solution:
5x + 4y = 8 .......(i) × 3
3x + 2y = 4 .......(ii) × 5
15x + 10y = 20 .......(iv)
– – –
2y = 4
y = 2
Putting the value of y in (i), we get
5x + 8 = 8
5x = 0
∴ x = 0
Here, x < y
Hence, option D is correct.
Miscellaneous for RBI Assistant
Directions : Read the following questions carefully and choose the right answer.
Q.1. A man can reach a certain place in 40 hours. If he reduces his speed by 1/15th, he goes 5 km less in that time. Find the total distance covered by him.
A. 60 km.
B. 85 km.
C. 75 km.
D. 52 km.
E. None of these
Solution:
Let Distance = D km, Speed = S km/h
Time = | Distance |
Speed |
40 = | Distance | .... (1) |
Speed |
After reducing speed,
Distance = Distance – 5 km, Speed = S × | 14 | km/h |
15 |
Time = | Distance |
Speed |
40 = | (Distance – 5) | .... (2) | |
Speed × | 14 | ||
15 |
After solving equation 1 and 2
Distance | = | (Distance – 5) | |
Speed | Speed × | 14 | |
15 |
14 Distance = 15 (Distance – 5)
14 Distance = 15 Distance – 75
Distance = 75 km.
Hence, option C is correct.
Q.2. In a college Anjana scored 80 marks out of 150 in History and 95 marks out of 120 in English. If she wants to score 70% marks in 3 subjects, find the minimum marks she should score in Geography out of 100.
A. 70
B. 55
C. 76
D. 85
E. None of these
Solution:
Total maximum marks = 100 + 120 + 150 = 370
Total marks in History and English = 95 + 80 = 175
Total marks required by her to get 70% = 370 × 70% = 259
So, she needs 259 – 175 = 84 marks to score 70%.
Hence, option E is correct.
Q.3. There are 15 boys and 10 girls in a class. If three students are selected at random, what is the probability that 1 girl and 2 boys are selected?
A. 1/10
B. 1/2
C. 21/46
D. 7/41
E. None of these
Solution:
Number of ways of selecting 1 girl and 2 boys = selecting 2 boys from 15 boys and 1 girl from 10 girls
⇒ Number of ways in which this can be done = 15C2 × 10C1
⇒ Required probability = | (15C2 × 10C1) |
(25C3) |
= | 21 |
46 |
Hence, option C is correct.
Q.4. Amit goes Mumbai to Kolkata by sea route. The speed of the boat in still water is 60 km/h and speed of the current is 15 km/h. After reaching Kolkata he stayed there for 20 minutes and after that come back by same boat. The time taken by him in this journey is 19 hours 32 minutes, find the distance travel by him in one side.
A. 450 km
B. 360 km
C. 540 km
D. 600 km
E. None of these
Solution:
Time taken by him in travelling = 19 hours 32 minutes – 20 minutes
= 19 hours 12 minutes
Let Distance = x km
According to the question,
x | + | x | = 19 | 12 |
60+15 | 60 – 15 | 60 |
x | + | x | = | 96 |
75 | 45 | 5 |
5x + 3x | = | 96 |
225 | 5 |
8x | = | 96 |
225 | 5 |
x = 540 km
Hence, option C is correct.
Q.5. Two trains 165 m and 135 m long run at the speed of 70 km/hr and 38 km/hr respectively in opposite directions on parallel tracks. The time (in seconds) which they take to cross each other is:
A. 4 sec
B. 5 sec
C. 10 sec
D. 13 sec
E. None of these
Solution:
Relative speed = (70 + 38) = 108 km/hr {As the trains are moving in opposite directions)
⇒ | ( | 108 × | 5 | ) | = 30 m/sec. |
18 |
Distance covered in crossing each other = (165 + 135) = 300 m
Reqd. time = | ( | 300 × | 1 | ) | sec ⇒ | 30 | sec = 10 sec. |
30 | 3 |
Hence, option C is correct.
