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: $-\frac{2}{3}$

Team Careers360 16th Jan, 2024

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

Team Careers360 11th Jan, 2024

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

Team Careers360 10th Jan, 2024

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 : 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

Team Careers360 15th Jan, 2024

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.
