HINTS & SOLUTIONS
Mathematics
1. Product of zeros = c/a
– 6/a = 4
a = – 3/2
Let the quadratic polynomial be ax + bx + c, and its zeroes be  and .

2
2.
3. The condition for equal roots of quadratic equation ax 2 + bx + c = 0 is b2 – 4ac = 0.

Given equation is 2x2 – kx + k = 0
For equal roots, b2 – 4ac = 0
 (–k)2 – 4(2) (k) = 0 (a = 2, b = –k, c = +k)
 k2 – 8k = 0
 k(k – 8) = 0
 k = 0 or k – 8 = 0
 k = 0 or k = 8
So, the values of k are 0 and 8. Hence, the answer is 0 & 8.
4. It is terminating decimal.
987 3  7  47 47
= 2 1 3 1  2
10500 2  3  5  7 2  53
987
As denominator has prime factors only in 2 and 5 so number is terminating decimal.
10500
5. -p/q.
Let a and b are the roots of the equation.
We have,
Sum of roots=-B/A and Product of roots = C/A
where A=1, B=p, C=q
then, Sum of roots(a + b) = – p/1=-p and product of roots(ab)=q/1=q
a + b = –p and ab = q

6. Every composite number can be expressed ( factorised ) as a product of primes, and this factorisation is
unique, apart from the order in which the prime factors occur.
7. Let 3 is a rational number

a
 3= [where a & b are co-primes & b  0]
b
a2 = 3b2 .......(i)
 3 divides a 2
 3 also divides a
 a = 3c [Where c is any non-zero positive integer]
 a2 = 9c2
From equation (i)
3b2 = 9c2
 b2 = 3c2
3 divides b2
 3 also divides b
So, 3 is a common factor of a and b.
Our assumption is wrong, because a and b are not co – primes.
It means 3 is an irrational number.
2 2
8. Let us first split the middle term – 5x as – 2x – 3x [Because (–2x) × (–3x) = 6x = (2x ) × 3]
2 2
9. Recall the identity a – b = (a – b) (a + b). Using it, we can write:

x2  3  x  3 x  3  
10. Let sum = x and rate of interest = y.

We have,
7400 = x[1 + (4y)/100] ………. (1)
9200 = x[1 + (7y)/100] ………. (2)
By solving (1) & (2) we get y = 12%.

11. We have, (a1/a2) = (b1/b2)  (c1/c2)
3/(2p - 1) = 1/(p - 1)  1/(2p + 1) 3/(2p - 1) = 1/(p - 1) ,
1/(p - 1)  1/(2p + 1)
Since, p = 2 satisfies the condition, therefore p  - 2. Is the correct answer.
2
12. (D) p – 2q
We have,
Sum of roots =-B/A, And Product of roots=C/A
Then
a + b = p and ab = q
2 2 2 2
a + b = (a + b) – 2ab = p – 2q
13. Find the HCF and LCM of 6, 72 and 120, using the prime factorisation method.
14. Given integers are 210 and 55 such that 210 > 55. Applying Euclid’s division leema to 210 and 55, we get
210 = 55 x 3 + 45 ……….(1)
55 = 45 x 1 +10 ………(2)
45 = 10 x 4 + 5 ………..(3)
10 = 5 x 2 + 0 ………..(4)
we consider the new divisor 10 and the new remainder 5 and apply division leema to get 10 = 5 × 2 + 0
The remainder at this stage is zero. So, the divisor at this stage or the remainder at the previous stage
i.e.5 is the HCF of 210 and 55.
15. By Euclid's division algorithm, corresponding to the positive integer a and 4

a = 4q + r …(i)
where a, q, r are non-negative integers and 0  r < 4 i.e., r = 0, 1, 2, 3
Now, at r = 0, a = 4q + 0 [From (i)]
 a3 = (4q)3 [Cubing both sides]
 a3 = 4(16q3)
 a3 = 4m, where m = 16q3
 a3 is perfect cube so 4m will also be perfect cube for some specified value of m.
Now, at r = 1, a = 4q + 1
 a3 = (4q + 1)3 [cubing both sides]

2
a3 = (4q)3 + (1)3 + 3(4q) (1) + 3(4q)(1)2 = 4(16q3 )+ 1 + 4(12q2 ) + 4(3q)
4(16q3 + 12q2 + 3q) + 1
 a3 = 4m + 1,
where m = 16q3 + 12q2 + 3q
a3 is perfect cube so 4m + 1 will also be perfect cube for some specified value of m.
At r = 2, a = 4q + 2 [From (i)]
 a3 = (4q + 2)3 [Cubing both sides]
 a3 = (4q)3 + (2)3 + 3(4q)2(2)+3(4q) (2)2 = 4(16q3) + 8 + 4 × 24q2 + 4 × 12q
= 4[16q3 + 2 + 24q2 + 12q]
 a3 = 4m, where m = 16q3 + 24q2 + 12q + 2
As a is perfect cube so, 4m is also perfect cube for some value of positive integer m.
3
Now at r = 3, a = 4q + 3
 a3 = (4q +3)3 [Cubing both sides]
 a3 = (4q)3 + (3)3 + 3(4q)2 (3) + 3(4q) (3)2
 a3 = 4 (16q3) + 27 + 4 (36q2)+ 4q × 27
 a3 = 4 (16q3) + 24 + 3 + 4(36q2)+ 4 (27q) = 4[16q3 + 6 + 36q2 + 27q] + 3
 a3 = 4m + 3, where m = 16q3 + 36q2 + 27q + 6
Hence, a number of the form 4m, 4m + 1 and 4m + 3 is perfect cube for specified natural value of m.
