Question : What do you call the drugs that bind to the receptor site and inhibit its natural function?
Option 1: Antidepressants
Option 2: Agonist
Option 3: Antagonists
Option 4: Depressants
Correct Answer: Antagonists

Question : The table given below shows the number of tractors sold by the two companies.
The number of tractor T5 sold by both companies is how much percentage more than the number of tractor T2 sold by both companies?
Option 1: 162.66%
Option 2: 172.44%
Option 3: 266.32%
Option 4: 188.88%
Correct Answer: 188.88%
Solution : Number of T5 tractors sold by P = 110 Number of T5 tractors sold by Q = 150 Total number of T5 tractors sold = 110 + 150 = 260 Number of T2 tractors sold by P = 40 Number of T2 tractors sold by
Question : The height of a cylinder is 6 cm more than the radius of its base. If its radius is 14 cm, then what will be the volume of this cylinder? (use $\pi=\frac{22}{7}$)
Option 1: 13,560 cm3
Option 2: 14,340 cm3
Option 3: 10,440 cm3
Option 4: 12,320 cm3
Correct Answer: 12,320 cm3
Solution : Given: The height of a cylinder is 6 cm more than the radius of its base. Its radius is 14 cm. The volume of the cylinder $=\frac{22}{7}\times r^2\times h$ where $r$ and $h$ are its radius and height respectively. According to the question,
Question : If $x=a^{\frac{1}{2}}+a^{-\frac{1}{2}}$, $y=a^{\frac{1}{2}}- a^{-\frac{1}{2}}$, then the value of $(x^{4}-x^{2}y^{2}-1)+(y^{4}-x^{2}y^{2}+1)$ is:
Option 1: 16
Option 2: 13
Option 3: 12
Option 4: 14
Correct Answer: 16
Solution : Given: $x=a^{\frac{1}{2}}+a^{\frac{-1}{2}}$ and $y=a^{\frac{1}{2}}-a^{\frac{-1}{2}}$ ⇒ $x=\sqrt{a}+{\frac{1}{\sqrt{a}}}$ and $y=\sqrt{a}-{\frac{1}{\sqrt{a}}}$ ⇒ $x+y=2\sqrt{a}$ and $x-y=\frac{2}{\sqrt{a}}$ So, $x^{4}-x^{2}y^{2}-1+y^{4}-x^{2}y^{2}+1$ = $x^{4}+y^{4}-2x^{2}y^{2}$ = $(x^{2}-y^{2})^{2}$ = $[(x-y)(x+y)]^{2}$ = $[(2\sqrt{a})(\frac{2}{\sqrt{a}})]^{2}$ = $16$ Hence, the correct answer is 16.

Question : Directions: In this question, three statements are given, followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. Assuming the statements to be true, even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the conclusions logically follows/follow from the statements. Statements: I. Some rings are fingers. II. Some fingers are toes. III. No toe is an earring. Conclusions: 1. No earring is a ring. II. Some toes are rings.
Option 1: Neither conclusion I nor II follows
Option 2: Only conclusion II follows
Option 3: Only conclusion I follows
Option 4: Both conclusions I and II follow
Correct Answer: Neither conclusion I nor II follows
Solution : According to the given statements, the following diagram can be drawn:
