He spends Rs.1,000 on transport to bring it from Madras to Hyderabad. He sold it in Hyderabad for Rs. M making a profit of 10%. Find the value of M (in Rs.).
Option 1: 6,305.80
Option 2: 6,258.80
Option 3: 6,285.70
Option 4: 6,527.90
Correct Answer: 6,285.70
Solution : Price at Hyderabad = Rs. M Price at Madras is 25% less than that in Hyderabad So, price at madras = M$\times 75\%=\frac{3}{4}$M The cost price including transportation fee becomes $(\frac{3M}{4}+1000)$ For 10% profit on this cost price, ($\frac{3M}{4}$ + 1000)$\times \frac{110}{100}$ = M ⇒
Question : If $(4 y-\frac{4}{y})=13$, find the value of $(y^2+\frac{1}{y^2})$.
Option 1: $12 \frac{11}{16}$
Option 2: $10 \frac{9}{16}$
Option 3: $12 \frac{9}{16}$
Option 4: $8 \frac{9}{16}$
Correct Answer: $12 \frac{9}{16}$
Solution : Given: $4(y -\frac{1}{y}) = 13$ Squaring on both sides of the above expression, we get, $⇒4^2(y -\frac{1}{y})^2 = 13^2$ $⇒16(y^2+\frac{1}{y^2}-2) = 169$ $⇒(y^2+\frac{1}{y^2}) = \frac{169}{16}+2$ $⇒(y^2+\frac{1}{y^2}) = \frac{169+32}{16}$ $⇒(y^2+\frac{1}{y^2}) = \frac{201}{16} = 12 \frac{9}{16}$ Hence, the correct answer is $12 \frac{9}{16}$.
