TN TET Paper 1: Mathematics Test - 5 - Question 2

If an operator □ is defined as:
4□3=4+5+6
5□4=5+6+7+8
6□4=6+7+8+9
What will n□8 be equal to?

Detailed Solution for TN TET Paper 1: Mathematics Test - 5 - Question 2

Given that,
4□3=4+5+6
5□4=5+6+7+8
6□4=6+7+8+9
So, we can see the left operand defines the starting number for the summation.
The right operand defines the number of consecutive digits that are being added.
∴ n□8
= n+(n+1)+(n+2)+(n+3)+(n+4)+(n+5)+(n+6)+(n+7)
= 8n+28.
Hence, the correct answer is 8n+28.

TN TET Paper 1: Mathematics Test - 5 - Question 21

What time is 4 hrs 59 minutes before 2:58 p.m.?

Detailed Solution for TN TET Paper 1: Mathematics Test - 5 - Question 21

Given:
The time = 2:58 p.m.
Concept:
1 hour = 60 minutes
Calculation:
⇒ 2 hours 58 minutes = (2 × 60) + 58 = 120 + 58 = 178 minutes
⇒ 4 hours 59 minutes = (4 × 60) + 59 = 240 + 59 = 299 minutes
⇒ The difference between them = 299 - 178 = 121 minutes or (2 hours 1 minutes)
⇒ Now this 2 hours 1 minutes will be before 12 p.m. then, 
⇒ Required timing = (12 × 60) - 121 = 720 - 121 = 599 or (9 hours 59 minutes)
∴ The required result will be 9 : 59 a.m.

Fill in the blanks 
The least number by which 125 be multiplied to make it a perfect square is _____________.

Detailed Solution for TN TET Paper 1: Mathematics Test - 5 - Question 24

To make it a perfect square, we have to make pairs of its prime factors
125 = 5 × 5 × 5
Here, we have to multiply it with 5 to make two pairs of 5
125 × 5 = 625
625 = 5 × 5 × 5 × 5.
Hence, the least number is 5.
