In the question, a statement is given, followed by two arguments I and II. Consider the statement to be true even if it seems to be at variance with commonly known facts. You have to decide which of the given arguments, if any, is a strong argument. Mark your answer accordingly.

Statement: Should the sale of alcohol near highways be banned?
Argument I: No, people should have freedom to decide as it is their fundamental right.
Argument II: Yes, 90% of road accidents involve drivers who are under influence of alcohol.

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 10 - Question 1

Both arguments I and II are strong:
(i) Many people believe that one should have freedom to eat or drink whatever, whenever and wherever they want. It seems a strong argument to not ban the alcohol near highways.
(ii) '90% of road accidents involve drivers who are under influence of alcohol' is also a strong argument and it pushes us to ban the alcohol near highways to avoid accidents.

28, 30, 36, 48, ?, 98, 140
Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 10 - Question 8
28 + 2 = 30
30 + (2 + 2 × 2) = 30 + 6 = 36
36 + (6 + 3 × 2) = 36 + 12 = 48
48 + (12 + 4 × 2) = 48 + 20 = 68
68 + (20 + 5 × 2) = 68 + 30 = 98
98 + (30 + 6 × 2) = 98 + 42 = 140

SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 10 - Question 13
ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral in which AB = 16.5 cm, BC = x cm, CD = 11 cm, AD = 19.8 cm, and BD is bisected by AC at O. What is the value of x?
Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 10 - Question 13

ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral.
AB = 16.5 cm
BC = x cm
CD = 11 cm
AD = 19.8 cm
Let OB = OD = y cm
Now, in triangles BOC and AOD, angle BOC = angle AOD (Vertically opposite angles)
Angles DBC and CAD are equal. (Angles subtended by arc CD at a point on the circle)
Thus, triangle BOC ~ triangle AOD (AA similarity)
Thus, OD/OC = AD/BC
Or, y/OC = x/19.8 ... (i)
Also, similarly, triangle BOA ~ triangle COD
Or, BO/OC = AB/CD
Or, y/OC = 16.5/11 ... (ii)
Equating the RHS of equations (i) and (ii), we get x/19.8 = 16.5/11
Or, x = 13.2
Hence, answer option 3 is correct.
SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 10 - Question 14
The simple interest on a sum of money for 10 years is Rs. 3,130. If the principal becomes 5 times after 5 years, then what will be the total interest (in Rs.) obtained after 10 years?
Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 10 - Question 14
Let the principle = x
The principle gives Rs. 3,130 as interest in 10 years, implies it gives Rs. 1,565 interest in 5 years.
S.I. = S.I. for 1st five years + S.I. for 2nd five years.
After 5 years, the principle is 5 times.
The interest for remaining 5 years is also 5 times = 5 × 1,565 = Rs. 7,825
Total interest we get at the end of 10 years = 7,825 + 1,565 = Rs. 9,390
SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 10 - Question 15

Solid spheres of radius 3 cm, 4 cm and 5 cm are melted and recast into a solid sphere. What will be the percentage decrease in the surface area?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 10 - Question 15

Let radius of new sphere = R cm
Volume of new sphere = Sum of volumes of all the three spheres
=
= (R)3 = (3)3 + (4)3 + (5)3
= (R)3 = 27 + 64 + 125
= 216 = (R) =
= 6 cm
Total surface area of new sphere = 4π(6)2 = 144π cm2
Total surface area of three spheres = 4π(r1)2 + 4π(r2)2 + 4π(r3)2
= 4π(9 + 16 + 25)
= 200π cm2
Percentage decrease in surface area =
= 56/2 = 28%

SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 10 - Question 16

ΔABC is an equilateral triangle and AD ⊥ BC, where D lies on BC. If AD = 4√3cm, then what is the perimeter (in cm) of ΔABC?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 10 - Question 16


AD = 4√3 cm
In right angle ΔABD,
(∴∠D = 90°)
By Pythagoras,
(AB)2 = (AD)2 + (BD)2
(AB = AC = BC)

(AB)2 = 64
AB = 8 cm
Perimeter of ΔABC = 3 × side = 3 × 8 = 24 cm.

SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 10 - Question 17

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 10 - Question 17

a = 8c and b = 4c
On putting the values of a and b in terms of c in the expression, the expression becomes:


Hence, answer option 4 is correct.

SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 10 - Question 18

In the year 2015, which type of car constitutes exactly 20% of the total number of cars produced that year?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 10 - Question 18

Total number of cars produced in the year 2015 = 1,00,000
20% of the total number of cars produced in the year 2015 = 1,00,000 x(20/100) = 20,000
In the year 2015, E type of car constitutes exactly 20% of the total number of cars produced that year, that is 20,000.
Thus, option 1 is the correct answer.

SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 10 - Question 19

The percentage decrease in the production of which type of car in 2017, with reference to 2016, was the maximum?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 10 - Question 19

Percentage decrease in the production of A type of car in 2017, with reference to 2016

B type of car has increments in the production in 2017, with reference to 2016.
Percentage decrease in the production of C type of car in 2017, with reference to 2016 


Percentage decrease in the production of D type of car in 2017, with reference to 2016

Percentage decrease in the production of E type of car in 2017, with reference to 2016 


Hence, A type of car has maximum decrement in the production in 2017, with reference to 2016.

SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 10 - Question 20

A dealer sold 6 sewing machines for Rs. 63,000 with a profit of 5%. For how much should he sell 8 machines if he intends to earn a 15% profit?

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 10 - Question 20


SP of 6 sewing machines = Rs. 63,000
SP of 1 sewing machines = 63000/6 = Rs. 10,500
CP of 1 sewing machine = 10,500 x (100/105) = 10,000
New SP of 1 sewing machine = 10,000 x (115/100) = 11,500
New SP of 8 sewing machines = 11,500 x 8 = 92,000

SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 10 - Question 21

If x4 + x2y2 + y4 = 21 and x2 + xy + y2 = 7, then the value of  is:

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Tier I Mock Test - 10 - Question 21

x4 + x2y2 + y4 = 21
= x4 + x2y2 + y4 + x2y2 - x2y2 = 21
= x4 + 2x2y2 + y4 - x2y2 = 21
( (a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2)
= (x2 + y2)2 = 21 + x2y2 ------- (1)
x2 + xy + y2 = 7
x2 + y2 = 7 - xy -------- (2)
From equations (1) and (2),
(7 - xy)2 = 21 + x2y2
49 + x2y2 - 14xy = 21 + x2y2
14xy = 49 - 21
xy = 28/14 = 2
From equation (2),
x2 + y2 = 7 - 2
x2 + y2 = 5
Now,
