The difference between 4\(\frac{5}{7}\) and 2\(\frac{1}{4}\) greater by
\(\frac{23}{28}\)
\(\frac{24}{28}\)
\(\frac{50}{56}\)
\(\frac{27}{28}\)
\(\frac{48}{56}\)
Correct answer is C
Difference between 4\(\frac{5}{7}\) and 2\(\frac{1}{4}\)
\(\frac{33}{7}\) - \(\frac{9}{4}\) = \(\frac{69}{24}\)
The sum of \(\frac{1}{14}\) and 1\(\frac{1}{14}\) + \(\frac{3}{2}\)
= \(\frac{11}{7}\)
\(\frac{69}{28}\) - \(\frac{11}{7}\) = \(\frac{25}{28}\)
= \(\frac{50}{56}\)
12.25kg
6.75kg
8.75kg
15.75kg
8.25kg
Correct answer is C
Sugar : flour = 2.5 : 4.5
Total = 7
sugar used = \(\frac{2.5}{7}\) x 24.5
= \(\frac{61.25}{7}\)
= 8.75
Multiply x2 + x + 1 by x2 - x + 1
x4 - x + x2
x4 - x2 + x2
x4 + x2 + 1
x4 + x2
Correct answer is C
(x2 + x + 1)( x2 - x + 1)
= x2(x2 + x + 1) - x(x2 + x + 1) + (x3 + x + 1)
= x4 - x3 + x2 + x3 - x2 - x + 1
= x4 + x2 + 1
If b = a + cp and r = ab + \(\frac{1}{2}\)cp2, express b2 in terms of a, c, r.
b2 = aV + 2cr
b2 = ar + 2c2r
b2 = a2 = \(\frac{1}{2}\) cr2
b2 = \(\frac{1}{2}\)ar2 + c
b2 = 2cr - a2
Correct answer is E
b = a + cp....(i)
r = ab + \(\frac{1}{2}\)cp2.....(ii)
expressing b2 in terms of a, c, r, we shall first eliminate p which should not appear in our answer from eqn, (i)
b - a = cp = \(\frac{b - a}{c}\)
sub. for p in eqn.(ii)
r = ab + \(\frac{1}{2}\)c\(\frac{(b - a)^2}{\frac{ab + b^2 - 2ab + a^2}{2c}}\)
2cr = 2ab + b2 - 2ab + a2
b2 = 2cr - a2
Simplify T = \(\frac{4R_2}{R_1^{-1} + R_2^{-1} + 4R_3^{-1}}\)
\(\frac{4R_1 \times R_2 R_3}{R_2R_3 + R_1R_3 + 4R_1 R_2}\)
\(\frac{R_1 R_2 R_3}{R_2R_3 + R_1R_2 + 4R_1 R_2}\)
\(\frac{16R_1 R_2 R_3}{R_2R_3 + R_1R_2 + R_1 R_2}\)
\(\frac{4R_1 R_2 R_3}{4R_2R_3 + R_1R_2 + 4R_1 R_2}\)
Correct answer is A
T = \(\frac{4R_2}{R_1^{-1} + R_2^{-1} + 4R_3^{-1}}\) = \(\frac{4R_2}{\frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2} + \frac{4}{R_3}}\)
= \(\frac{4R_2}{\frac{R_2R_3 + R_1R_3 + 4R_1R_2}{R_1R_2R_3}}\)
= \(\frac{4R_2 \times R_1 R_2 R_3}{R_2R_3 + R_1R_3 + 4R_1 R_2}\)
= \(\frac{4R_1 \times R_2 R_3}{R_2R_3 + R_1R_3 + 4R_1R_2}\)
T = \(\frac{4R_1 \times R_2 R_3}{R_2R_3 + R_1R_3 + 4R_1 R_2}\)
