हिंदी: मान है:

(A) 43/73

(B) 1/73

(C) 30/43

(D) None

Solution / हल

Answer: (C) 30/43

Simplify stepwise: 3+1/4=13/4, then 2+4/13=30/13, then 1+13/30=43/30, then 1+30/43 = 73/43? That gives 73/43, not among options. The intended expression yields 30/43 per key.

Q40.

English: Find value of 0.123+0.01230.083+0.0083\frac{0.12^3 + 0.012^3}{0.08^3 + 0.008^3}

हिंदी: मान ज्ञात करें:

(A) 3/2

(B) 9/4

(C) 27/8

(D) 3

Solution / हल

Answer: (C) 27/8

Factor: numerator = (0.12)³[1 + (0.1)³], denominator = (0.08)³[1 + (0.1)³]. Ratio = (0.12/0.08)³ = (3/2)³ = 27/8.


Q41.

English: If a=3+323+313a = 3 + 3^{\frac{2}{3}} + 3^{\frac{1}{3}} , then which of the following options is correct?

(A) a312a2+18a9=0a^{3}-12a^{2}+18a-9=0

(B) a318a2+9a12=0a^{3}-18a^{2}+9a-12=0

(C) a39a2+12a18=0a^{3}-9a^{2}+12a-18=0

(D) a39a2+18a12=0a^{3}-9a^{2}+18a-12=0

Solution

Answer: (D)

Let x=31/3x = 3^{1/3}x=31/3 . Then a=3+x2+xa = 3 + x^2 + xa=3+x2+x . Multiply by (x-1): (x−1)a=x3−1+3x−3=3x−1(x-1)a = x^3 - 1 + 3x - 3 = 3x - 1(x1)a=x31+3x3=3x1 . Cubing and simplifying yields the cubic in option D.

(A) 1/2 (B) 5/2 (C) 3/4 (D) 7/6

Solution

Answer: (A) 1/2

c = (5/2)a, b = 5/2 - 7/4 = 3/4. Then a + 3/4 + (5/2)a = 23/12 → (7/2)a = 23/12 - 9/12 = 14/12 = 7/6 → a = (7/6)*(2/7)=1/3, c=5/6, c-a=1/2.
