Question : If $a=\frac{1}{a-\sqrt{6}}$ and $(a>0)$, then the value of $\left(a+\frac{1}{a}\right)$ is:

Option 1: $\sqrt{6}$

Option 2: $\sqrt{10}$

Option 3: $\sqrt{15}$

Option 4: $\sqrt{7}$

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $\sqrt{10}$


Solution : $a=\frac{1}{a-\sqrt{6}}(x>0)$
$⇒a^2-a\sqrt 6-1=0$
$⇒a^2-1=a\sqrt 6$
Multiplying both sides by $\frac{1}{a}$, we get,
$⇒a-\frac{1}{a}=\sqrt 6$
Squaring both sides, we get,
$⇒(a-\frac{1}{a})^2=(\sqrt 6)^2$
$⇒a^2+\frac{1}{a^2}-2=6$
Adding 4 to both sides, we get,
$⇒a^2+\frac{1}{a^2}+2=6+4$
$⇒(a+\frac{1}{a})^2=10$
$\therefore a+\frac{1}{a}=\sqrt{10}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\sqrt{10}$.

Question : If $x=5$ ; $y=6$ and $z=-11$, then the value of $x^{3}+y^{3}+z^{3}$ is:

Option 1:  –890

Option 2:  –970

Option 3:  –870

Option 4:  –990

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer:  –990


Solution : Given:
$x=5$, $y=6$ and $z=-11$
Here $x+y+z= 5 + 6 -11 = 0$
So, $x^{3}+y^{3}+z^{3} = 3xyz = 3\times 5\times 6 \times (-11) = -990$
Hence, the correct answer is $-990$.

Question : If $a^4+\frac{1}{a^4}=194$, then what is the value of $a^3+\frac{1}{a^3} ?$

Option 1: 44

Option 2: 52

Option 3: 48

Option 4: 50

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 52


Solution : Given: $a^4+\frac{1}{a^4}=194$
Adding 2 both sides, we get:
⇒ $a^4+\frac{1}{a^4}+2=194+2$
Now,
⇒ $(a^2+\frac{1}{a^2})^2=14^2$
⇒ $(a^2+\frac{1}{a^2})=14$
Again, adding 2 both sides, we get:
⇒ $a^2+\frac{1}{a^2}+2=14+2$
⇒ $(a+\frac{1}{a})^2=4^2$
⇒ $a+\frac{1}{a}=4$
Now, cubing both sides, we get:
$a^3+\frac{1}{a^3}+3×a×\frac{1}{a}(a+\frac{1}{a})=64$
⇒ $a^3+\frac{1}{a}^3+3\times 4 = 64$
⇒ $a^3+\frac{1}{a^3}=52$
Hence, the correct

Question : Two trains that are 125 m and 99 m in length, respectively, are running in opposite directions at the speeds of 40 km/h and 32 km/hr, respectively. In how much time will they be completely clear of each other from the moment they meet?

Option 1: 10.2 sec

Option 2: 11.2 sec

Option 3: 9.2 sec

Option 4: 12.2 sec

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 11.2 sec


Solution : The total distance to be covered = 125 m + 99 m = 224 m
The relative speed of the two trains when they are moving in opposite directions is the sum of their speeds.
The relative speed = 40 km/h + 32 km/h
