Option 1: 1924

Option 2: –1926

Option 3: –1924

Option 4: 1926

Team Careers360 22nd Jan, 2024

$\left(27x^3 + 58x^2y + 31xy^2 + 8y^3\right)$
= $27x^3+54x^2y+36xy^2+8y^3+ 4x^{2}y - 5xy^{2}$
= $(3x + 2y)^{3} + 4x^{2}y - 5xy^{2}$
= $(3 \times 5 + 2 \times (-7)^{3} + 4 \times 5^{2} \times (-7) -(5\times 5

Question : By selling a bag for Rs. 230, a profit of 15% is made. The selling price of the bag, when sold at 20% profit, would be:

Option 1: Rs. 250

Option 2: Rs. 205

Option 3: Rs. 240

Option 4: Rs. 200

Team Careers360 21st Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Rs. 240


Solution : Let the Cost price (CP) be Rs. $x$.
Selling price (SP) of the bag = Rs. 230 and profit = 15%
SP = $\frac{100 +\text{Profit %}}{100}$ × CP = 230
⇒ $\frac{115x}{100}$ = 230
⇒ $x$ = $\frac{230}{115}$ × 100
⇒ $x$ = 200

Question : Evaluate the following.
$\sin 25^{\circ} \sin 65^{\circ}-\cos 25^{\circ} \cos 65^{\circ}$.

Option 1: 40

Option 2: 4

Option 3: 0

Option 4: 1

Team Careers360 12th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 0


Solution : $\sin 25^{\circ} \sin 65^{\circ}-\cos 25^{\circ} \cos 65^{\circ}$
We know that,
$\cos(x + y) = \cos x \cos y - \sin x \sin y$
Applying,
$\sin 25^{\circ} \sin 65^{\circ}-\cos 25^{\circ} \cos 65^{\circ}$
= $-(-\sin 25^{\circ} \sin 65^{\circ}+\cos 25^{\circ} \cos 65^{\circ})$
= $-\cos(25^{\circ}+65^{\circ})$
= $-\cos90^{\circ}=0$
Hence, the
