Question : If $4x^2+y^2 = 40$ and $xy=6$, then the value of $2x-y$ is:
Option 1: 1
Option 2: 3
Option 3: 4
Option 4: 2
Correct Answer: 4
Solution : Consider, $2x-y$ Squaring this equation, we get, $(2x-y)^2=4x^2+y^2-4xy$ Given, $4x^2+y^2 = 40$ and $xy=6$ ⇒ $(2x-y)^2=40-4\times 6$ ⇒ $(2x-y)^2=40-24=16$ ⇒ $2x-y=\sqrt{16}$ ⇒ $2x-y=4$ Hence, the correct answer is 4.
