A. p>q B. p<q C. p≥q D. p≤q E. p=q OR No relation can be established(CND)

Answer: Option (A)
Explanation: 8p + 7q + 7pq = 25 ..............×2 2p + 2q + 2pq = 6 ...........×7 Using elimination method

p=4 substituting in 8p+7q+7pq=25 8 * 4 + 7q + 7pq = 25 32 + 7q + 7 * 4 * q = 25 7q + 28q = 25 - 32 35q = -7 q = -1/5 p > q
2. Direction: In the following question, there are two equations. Solve the equations and answer accordingly:
I. 5x2 – 12x+ 7=0 II. 6y2 + 16y + 8=0

A. x > y B. x ≥ y C. y >x D. y ≥ x E. x = y or relationship cannot be establish

Answer: Option (A)
Explanation: 5[latex]x^2[/latex] - 5[latex]x[/latex] - 7[latex]x[/latex] + 7 5[latex]x[/latex]([latex]x[/latex] - 1) - 7([latex]x[/latex] - 1) (5[latex]x[/latex] - 7)([latex]x[/latex] - 1) [latex]x[/latex] = [latex]\frac{7}{5}[/latex], 1 and 6[latex]y^2[/latex] + 12[latex]y[/latex] + 4[latex]y[/latex] + 8 = 0 6[latex]y[/latex]([latex]y[/latex] + 2) + 4([latex]y[/latex] + 2) = 0 (6[latex]y[/latex] + 4)([latex]y[/latex] + 2) [latex]y[/latex] = -[latex]\frac{2}{3}[/latex], -2
3. Direction: Each question below is followed by two statements I and II. You have to determine whether the data given in the statement is sufficient for answering the question. You should use the data and your knowledge of Mathematics to choose the best possible answer.

The question can be answered using both of the statements together, but cannot be answered using either of the statement alone. E. The question cannot be answered even by using both the statements together.

Answer: Option (E)
Explanation: Statement 1: if the time taken to fill the tank (without the leak) be x and that of leaking (without filling) be y, then this statement says x= 1/2y But we need another equation between x and y. Statement 2: this statement neither answers the question nor does it provide a relation between x and y.
4. Direction: Each question below is followed by two statements I and II. You have to determine whether the data given in the statement is sufficient for answering the question. You should use the data and your knowledge of Mathematics to choose the best possible answer.

The question cannot be answered even by using both the statements together.

Answer: Option (A)
Explanation: 3/4th work in 6 hours. Total work can be completed in 8 hours. From statement 1: 1/a + 1/b = 1/8 ⇒ 1/b = 1/10 Therefore, A finishes the work in 40 hours. Statement 2 alone is not sufficient.
