Quantitative Aptitude - Test 11 - Question 2

The ratio of ages of father and son is 7 : 2. Five years ago the product of their ages was 150. What is the age of the father?

Detailed Solution for Quantitative Aptitude - Test 11 - Question 2

Let father's age = 7x years and son's age = 2x years

According to ques, => (7x − 5)(2x − 5) = 150

=> 14x2 − 35x − 10x + 25 − 150 = 0

=> 14x2 − 45x − 125 = 0

=> 14x2 − 70x + 25x − 125 = 0

=> 14x(x − 5) + 25(x − 5) = 0

=> (x − 5)(14x + 25) = 0

Since, age can't be negative, thus x = 5

∴ Father's age = 7 × 5 = 35 years

=> Ans - (C)

Quantitative Aptitude - Test 11 - Question 3

The sum of the ages of husband and wife at present is 56. Ten years ago the product of their ages was 320. What is the age of the husband and the wife?

Detailed Solution for Quantitative Aptitude - Test 11 - Question 3

Let husband's age = xx years

=> Wife's age = (56 − x) years

According to ques, (x − 10)(56 − x − 10) = 320

=> (x − 10)(46 − x) = 320

=> 46x − x2 − 460 + 10x = 320

=> x2 − 56x + 780 = 0

=> x2 − 30x − 26x + 780 = 0

=> x(x − 30) − 26(x − 30) = 0

=> (x − 30)(x − 26) = 0

=> x = 30, 26

∴ Ages of the husband and the wife = 30 and 26 years.

Quantitative Aptitude - Test 11 - Question 4

Ronald and Elan are working on an Assignment. Ronald takes 6 hours to type 32 pages on a computer, while Elan takes 5 hours to type 40 pages. How much time will they take working together on two different computers to type an assignment of 110 pages?

Detailed Solution for Quantitative Aptitude - Test 11 - Question 4

Ronald takes 6 hours to type 32 pages

no.of pages typed by ronald per hour = 32/6 = 16/3

 Elan takes 5 hours to type 40 pages

no.of pages typed by elan per hour = 40/5 = 8

in 1hr, both can type 8 + 16/3 pages = 40/3

time taken by both to type 110 pages = 110/(40/3) = 33/4 = 8hrs 15mins    (∵ 1/4 hr = 15mins)

so the answer is option C.

Quantitative Aptitude - Test 11 - Question 12

The 4th term of an arithmetic progression is 15, 15th term is -29, find the 10th term?

Detailed Solution for Quantitative Aptitude - Test 11 - Question 12

The nth term of an A.P. = a + (n - 1)d, where 'a' is the first term, 'n' is the number of terms and 'd' is the common difference.

4th term, A4 = a + (4 - 1)d = 15

=> a + 3d = 15 -----------------(i)

Similarly, 15th term, A15 = a + 14d = -29 ------------------(ii)

Subtracting equation (i) from (ii), we get :

=> (14d - 3d) = -29 - 15

=> d = -44/11 ​= −4

Substituting it in equation (i), => a - 12 = 15

=> a = 15 + 12 = 27

∴ 10th term, A10 = a + (10 - 1)d

= 27 + (9× − 4) = 27 − 36 = −9

=> Ans - (D)

Quantitative Aptitude - Test 11 - Question 22

In what ratio is the segment joining (-1, -12) and (3, 4) divided by the x-axis?

Detailed Solution for Quantitative Aptitude - Test 11 - Question 22

Using section formula, the coordinates of point that divides line joining A = (x1​, y1​) and B = (x2​, y2​) in the ratio a : b

Let the ratio in which the segment joining (-1,-12) and (3,4) divided by the x-axis = k : 1

Since, the line segment is divided by x-axis, thus y-coordinate of the point will be zero, let the point of intersection = (x, 0)

Now, point P (x, 0) divides (-1, -12) and (3, 4) in ratio = k : 1

=> 4k - 12 = 0

=> k = 12​/4 = 3

∴ Required ratio = 3 : 1

=> Coordinates of C = 

Now, slope of AB 

Let slope of line l = m

Product of slopes of two perpendicular lines = -1

=> m × −6 = −1

=> m = 1/61

Equation of a line passing through point (x1​, y1​) and having slope mm is (y − y1​) = m(x − x1​)

∴ Equation of line l

=> (y - 1) = 1/6​(x − 1)

=> 6y - 6 = x - 1

=> x - 6y = 1 - 6 = -5

=> Ans - (C)
