SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Algebra- 6 - Question 3

If ax + by = 6, bx – ay = 2 and x2 + y2 = 4, then the value of (a2 + b2) would be:        (SSC CGL 2nd Sit. 2012)

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Algebra- 6 - Question 3

ax + by = 6 ...(i)
bx – ay = 2 ...(ii)
On squaring and adding,
a2x2 + b2y2 + 2abxy + b2x2 + a2y2 – 2abxy
= 36 + 4
⇒ x2 (a2 + b2) + y2 (a2 + b2) = 40
⇒ (a2 + b2) (x2 + y2) = 40
⇒ (a2 + b2) × 4 = 40
⇒ a2 + b2 = 10

SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Algebra- 6 - Question 4

If  then the value of  is:       (SSC CGL 2nd Sit. 2012)

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Algebra- 6 - Question 4



= 103 – 3 × 10 = 1000 – 30 = 970

SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Algebra- 6 - Question 5

If (5x2 – 3y2) : xy = 11 : 2, then the postive value of x/y is:       (SSC CGL 2nd Sit. 2012)

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Algebra- 6 - Question 5


10x2 – 6y2 = 11xy
10x2 – 11xy – 6y2 = 0
10x2 – 15xy + 4xy – 6y2 = 0
5x(2x – 3y) + 2y(2x – 3y) = 0
(5x + 2y) (2x – 3y)
5x ≠ 2y, 2x = 3y

SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Algebra- 6 - Question 6

If (a – b) = 3, (b – c) = 5 and (c – a) = 1, then the value of  is      (SSC CGL  1st Sit. 2012)

SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Algebra- 6 - Question 7

In the xy–coordinate system, if (a, b) and (a + 3, b + k) are two points on the line defined by the equation x = 3y – 7, then k = ?        (SSC CGL  1st Sit. 2012)

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Algebra- 6 - Question 7

Points (a, b) and [(a + 3), (b + k)] will satisfy the equation
x – 3y + 7 = 0.
∴ a – 3b + 7 = 0 ......(i)
and a + 3 – 3 (b + k) + 7 = 0
⇒ a + 3 – 3b – 3 k + 7 = 0
⇒ a – 3b + 7 + 3 – 3 k = 0
⇒ 3 – 3k = 0 ⇒ 3k = 3
⇒ k = 3/3 = 1 [∵ a - 3b + 7 = 0]

SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Algebra- 6 - Question 8

If a + b + 1 = 0, then the value of (a3 + b3 + 1 – 3ab) is        (SSC CGL 1st Sit. 2012)

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Algebra- 6 - Question 8

If a + b + c = 0
then a3 + b3 + c3 – 3abc = 0
Now,
a + b + 1 = 0
∴ a3 + b3 + 1 – 3ab = 0

SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Algebra- 6 - Question 9

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Algebra- 6 - Question 12

x = (0.08)2

Z = (1 – 0.08)2 – 1
= 1 + (0.08)2 – 2 × 0.08 – 1 = (0.08)2 – 2 × 0.08
Clearly, z < x < y

SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Algebra- 6 - Question 13

The sum of two numbers is 24 and their product is 143. The sum of their squares is      (SSC CGL 2nd Sit. 2011)

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Algebra- 6 - Question 13

Let the two numbers be x and y.
∴ x + y = 24
and, xy = 143
∴ x2 + y2 = (x + y)2 – 2xy
= (24)2 – 2 × 143 = 576 – 286 = 290

SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Algebra- 6 - Question 14

Now 

SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Algebra- 6 - Question 17

In an examination a student scores 4 marks for every correct answer and loses 1 mark for every wrong answer. If he attempts all 75 questions and secures 125 marks, the number of questions he attempts correctly is        (SSC CGL 1st Sit. 2011)

Detailed Solution for SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Algebra- 6 - Question 17

Let the number of correct answers be x.
∴ x + 4 – (75 – x) × 1 = 125
⇒ 4x – 75 + x = 125
⇒ 5x = 125 + 75 = 200

SSC CGL Previous Year Questions: Algebra- 6 - Question 18

If p and q represent digits, what is the possible maximum value of q in the statement 5p9 + 327 + 2q8 = 1114?       (SSC CGL  2nd Sit. 2010)
