Question : If $p-\frac{1}{p}=6$, then what is the value of $p^4+\frac{1}{p^4}$?
Option 1: 1562
Option 2: 1432
Option 3: 1442
Option 4: 1444
Correct Answer: 1442
Solution : $\mathrm{p}-\frac{1}{\mathrm{p}}=6$ Squaring both sides, we get, $⇒p^2+\frac{1}{p^2}-2(p)(\frac{1}{p})=36$ $⇒p^2+\frac{1}{p^2}-2=36$ $⇒p^2+\frac{1}{p^2}=38$ Squaring both sides again, we get, $⇒p^4+\frac{1}{p^4}+2(p^2)(\frac{1}{p^2})=1444$ $⇒p^4+\frac{1}{p^4}+2=1444$ $\therefore p^4+\frac{1}{p^4}=1442$ Hence, the correct answer is 1442.
Question : The compound interest received on INR 18,000 for 2 years is INR 7,920 when the interest is compounded annually. What is the rate of interest per annum?
Option 1: 15%
Option 2: 12.5%
Option 3: 20%
Option 4: 25%
Correct Answer: 20%
Solution : Given: Compound interest = INR 7920 Principal = INR 18,000 Time = 2 years Compound interest $= \text{Principal}×((1+\frac{\text{Rate}}{100})^{\text{Time}}-1)$ ⇒ $7920=18000×((1+\frac{\text{Rate}}{100})^{2}-1)$ ⇒ $\frac{7920}{18000}=((1+\frac{\text{Rate}}{100})^{2}-1)$ ⇒ $\frac{11}{25}+1=(1+\frac{\text{Rate}}{100})^{2}$ ⇒ $\frac{36}{25}=(1+\frac{\text{Rate}}{100})^{2}$ ⇒ $\frac{6}{5}=1+\frac{\text{Rate}}{100}$ ⇒ $\frac{6}{5}-1=\frac{\text{Rate}}{100}$ ⇒ $\frac{1}{5}=\frac{\text{Rate}}{100}$ $\therefore$ Rate $= 20$% Hence, the correct answer is 20%.

Question : If $x+\frac{1}{x}=c+\frac{1}{c}$, then the value of $x$ is:
Option 1: $c,\frac{1}{c}$
Option 2: $c,c^{2}$
Option 3: $c,2c$
Option 4: $0, 1$
Correct Answer: $c,\frac{1}{c}$
Solution : Given: $x+\frac{1}{x}=c+\frac{1}{c}$ ⇒ $x-c=\frac{1}{c}–\frac{1}{x}$ ⇒ $x-c=\frac{(x–c)}{xc}$ ⇒ $(x-c)-\frac{(x–c)}{xc}=0$ ⇒ $(x-c)[1-\frac{1}{xc}]=0$ Taking, $(x-c)=0$ ⇒ $x=c$ Now, taking $[1-\frac{1}{xc}]=0$ ⇒ $\frac{1}{xc}=1$ ⇒ $x=\frac{1}{c}$ Hence, the correct answer is $c,\frac{1}{c}$.
