Question : If for a non-zero $x$, $3x^{2}+5x+3=0,$ then the value of $x^{3}+\frac{1}{x^{3}}$ is:
Option 1: $\frac{10}{27}$
Option 2: $-\frac{10}{27}$
Option 3: $\frac{2}{3}$
Option 4: $-\frac{2}{3}$
Correct Answer: $\frac{10}{27}$
Solution : Given: $3x^{2}+5x+3=0$ $3x^2 + 3=-5x$ Dividing by $3x$ on both sides, $x+\frac{1}{x} = -\frac{5}{3}$ As $(a+b)^3 = a^3 + b^3 +3ab(a+b)$ $\therefore$ $x^3 + \frac{1}{x^3} = (\frac{-5}{3})^3 - 3\times \frac{-5}{3}$ = $\frac{-125}{27}+5$ = $\frac{–125+135}{27}=\frac{10}{27}$ Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{10}{27}$.
Question : If the radius of a cylinder is increased by 25%, by how much percentage the height must be reduced, so that the volume of the cylinder remains the same.
Option 1: 36
Option 2: 56
Option 3: 64
Option 4: 46
Correct Answer: 36
Solution : Given: The radius of a cylinder is increased by 25%. Volume of the cylinder = $\pi r^2 h$ Let $h$ be the initial height, $r$ be the initial radius, $H$ be the final height and the new radius will be $\frac{125}{100}r$ = $\frac{5}{4}r$. According to
Question : The difference between the two numbers is 24 while the sum of those two numbers is 120. Which of the options below can be the ratio of those two numbers?
Option 1: 3 : 5
Option 2: 3 : 2
Option 3: 4 : 5
Option 4: 5 : 8
Correct Answer: 3 : 2
Solution : Let the numbers be $a$ and $b$. Given: $a-b=24$............(equation 1) $a+b=120$............(equation 2) Adding equation 1 and 2, we get: $2a=144$ ⇒ $a=72$ Putting the value of $a$ in equation 2, we get: $72+b=120$ ⇒ $b=48$ $\therefore a:b=72:48$ $=3:2$ Hence, the correct answer is
Question : In which year did Walther Flemming coined the term 'chromatin' for the stained substance found in the cell nucleus?

Question : What is the value of $y$ in the following equation? $(1 \div 23) \text { of }[2\{3+4(35 \div 7)\}]=y$
Option 1: 23
Option 2: 5
Option 3: 2
Option 4: 21
Correct Answer: 2
Solution : $(1 \div 23) \text { of }[2\{3+4(35 \div 7)\}]=y$ ⇒ $y=(\frac{1}{23})\times[2\{3+4(\frac{35}{7})\}]$ ⇒ $y=(\frac{1}{23})\times[2\{3+4(5)\}]$ ⇒ $y=(\frac{1}{23})\times[2\{3+20\}]$ ⇒ $y=(\frac{1}{23})\times[2(23)]$ $\therefore y=2$ Hence, the correct answer is 2.
