Option 1: 45
Option 2: 36
Option 3: 4
Option 4: 9
Correct Answer: 9
Solution : $\frac{196}{7} \div \frac{35}{12}$ of $\frac{132}{55} \times \frac{45}{20}$ $=\frac{196}{7} \div (\frac{35}{12} \times \frac{132}{55} )\times \frac{45}{20}$ $=\frac{196}{7} \div 7 \times \frac{45}{20}$ $=\frac{196}{7} \times \frac{1}{7} \times \frac{45}{20}$ $= \frac{45}{5}$ $= 9$ Hence, the correct answer is 9.
Question : The value of $\lambda$ for which the expression $x^3 + x^2 - 5x + \lambda$ will be divisible by $(x-2)$ is:
Option 1: 2
Option 2: – 2
Option 3: – 3
Option 4: 4
Correct Answer: – 2
Solution : Given: $(x - 2)$ is a factor of the polynomial $P(x)= x^3 + x^2 - 5x + \lambda$ So, $P(2)=0$ ⇒ $8 + 4 - 10 + λ = 0$ ⇒ $λ + 2 = 0$ ⇒ $λ= -2$ Hence, the correct answer is
