Question : If $\frac{1}{x^2+a^2}=x^2-a^2$, then the value of $x$ is:

Option 1: $\left(1-a^4\right)^\frac{1}{4}$

Option 2: $a$

Option 3: $\left(a^4-1\right)^\frac{1}{4}$

Option 4: $\left(a^4+1\right)^\frac{1}{4}$

Team Careers360 18th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $\left(a^4+1\right)^\frac{1}{4}$


Solution : Given, $\frac{1}{x^2+a^2}=x^2-a^2$
$⇒1=(x^2-a^2)(x^2+a^2)$
$⇒1=x^4-a^4$
$⇒x^4 = 1+a^4$
$\therefore x=(1+a^4)^\frac{1}{4}$
Hence, the correct answer is $(a^4+1)^\frac{1}{4}$.

Question : The equation of the line if its slope is $-\frac{3}{7}$ and it passes through the point (5, 2) is:

Option 1: $3x+7y=29$

Option 2: $3x-7y=1$

Option 3: $3x+7y=1$

Option 4: $3x-7y=29$

Team Careers360 11th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $3x+7y=29$


Solution : To find: Equation of the line with slope $-\frac{3}{7}$that passes through the point (5, 2).
The equation of a line passing through $(x, y)$ is $y=mx+c$, where $m$ is the slope and $c$ is the y-intercept.
Here, $m=-\frac{3}{7}$ and $(x, y)=(5,2)$
$⇒ 2=-\frac{3}{7}×5+c$
$⇒ c=\frac{15}{7}+2$

Question : If the arithmetic mean of 7,5,13, $x$ and 9 is 10, then the value of $x$ is:

Option 1: 10

Option 2: 12

Option 3: 14

Option 4: 16

Team Careers360 17th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 16

⇒ $10 =\frac{7+5+13+x+9}{5}$
⇒ $10 =\frac{34+x}{5}$
⇒ $50 = 34 +x$
$\therefore x = 16$
Hence, the correct answer is 16.
