Question : Directions: The following graph shows the production (in thousands) of two types (P and Q) of vehicles by a factory over the years 2009 to 2014. Study the graph and answer the given question.
The ratio of the total production of type P vehicles to the total production of type Q vehicles over the years is:
Option 1: 48 : 41
Option 2: 5 : 8
Option 3: 8 : 5
Option 4: 41 : 48
Correct Answer: 48 : 41
Solution : Total production of P-type vehicles = 100 + 125 + 200 + 225 + 275 + 275 = 1200 Total production of Q-type vehicles = 175 + 150 + 125 + 175 + 175 + 225 = 1025 Required ratio = 1200 :

Question : If $x=\frac{\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{4}}{\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{4}}$ and $y=\frac{\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{4}}{\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{4}}$ then the value of $\frac{x^2-x y+y^2}{x^2+x y+y^2}=$?
Option 1: $\frac{361}{363}$
Option 2: $\frac{341}{343}$
Option 3: $\frac{384}{387}$
Option 4: $\frac{321}{323}$
Correct Answer: $\frac{321}{323}$
Solution : $x=\frac{\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{4}}{\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{4}} = \frac{(\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{4})^2}{(\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{4})(\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{4})} = \frac{5+4-4\sqrt5}{5-4} = 9-4\sqrt5$ $y=\frac{\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{4}}{\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{4}} = \frac{(\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{4})^2}{(\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{4})(\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{4})} = \frac{5+4+4\sqrt5}{5-4} = 9+4\sqrt5$ ⇒ $xy=\frac{\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{4}}{\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{4}}×\frac{\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{4}}{\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{4}}=1$ and $x+y=9-4\sqrt5+9+4\sqrt5=18$ Now, $\frac{x^2-x y+y^2}{x^2+x y+y^2}$ = $\frac{x^2+2xy+y^2-3xy}{x^2+2xy+y^2-xy}$ = $\frac{(x+y)^2-3xy}{(x+y)^2-xy}$ = $\frac{(18)^2-3}{(18)^2-1}$ = $\frac{321}{323}$ Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{321}{323}$.
Question : There are 15 students in a class. Their average weight is 40 kg. When one student leaves the class, the average weight is 39.5 kg. What is the weight of the student who left the class (where kg means kilogram)?

Option 3: 52 kg
Option 4: 48 kg
Correct Answer: 47 kg
Solution : Given: There are 15 students in a class. Their average weight is 40 kg. Before one student left, the combined weight of the class was: 15 × 40 = 600 kg After one student left the class, the remaining student's combined weight = 14
