Question : If x + y = 7 and xy = 19, calculate the value of x2 + y2.
Option 1: 17
Option 2: 12
Option 3: 11
Option 4: 19
Correct Answer: 11
Solution : Given: x + y = 7 and xy = 19. On squaring both sides of the equation x + y = 7, we get, (x + y)2 = 72 ⇒ (x2 + y2 + 2xy) = 49 ⇒ x2 +

Option 1: 60
Option 2: 75
Option 3: 90
Option 4: 100
Correct Answer: 60
Solution : Let the numbers be $x$ and $y$ where $x > y$. According to the question, ⇒ $(x + y) – (x – y) = 30$ ⇒ $x + y–x + y = 30$ ⇒ $y = \frac{30}{2} = 15$ Also, $xy = 900$ ⇒ $15x

Question : The cost price of an article is decreased by 10% and then increased by 20%. If the final price is INR 540, then the original cost price is:
Option 1: INR 500
Option 2: INR 650
Option 3: INR 550
Option 4: INR 600
Correct Answer: INR 500
Solution : Let the cost price be INR $x$. The cost price first decreased by 10%, then increased by 20%. So, $\frac{x×90×120}{100×100}=540$ ⇒ $108x=54000$ ⇒ $x=500$ Therefore, the original cost price = INR 500 Hence, the correct answer is INR 500.
