Sir/ma'amHow to solve when mean proportion is given

latest answer

Let numbers be x& y x+y = 45 and square root of xy = 18 and then substitute value of y i.e. y=45-x in the second equation i.e. xy=18^2=324. Then u will get 36 & 9

Mam actually dsir did using other formula.But I want to know the wrong in this formula

latest answer

We have some of roots as -b/a we do not know difference of roots so cannot apply what you have done and also U have take a^3-b^3 as (a-b)^3+3ab(a-b) but u took -3ab

Two numbers are such that twice the greater number exceeds twice the smaller one by 18 and 1/3rd of the smaller and 1/5th of the greater number are together 21. The numbers are: a) (36, 45) b) (45, 36) c) (50, 41) d) (55, 46) Sir here both a and b satisfy the sum. ICAI OPTION IS B. but if I take greater no is y then option can be a SO HOW TO DIFFERENTIATE

The product of two numbers is 3200 and the quotient when the larger number is divided by the smaller is 2.The numbers are a) (16, 200) b) (160, 20) c) (60, 30) d) (80, 40) How to do without option verification

latest answer

When you solve these kind of problems by assuming variables as x & y, if you do not have two complete equations of x & y , you will get multiple answers . In this case if we assume all numbers are whole numbers and there are no decimals then xy = 3200 & x/y = 2; from equation x/y = 2 , x = 2y which can be substituted in equation 1 to get 2yy = 3200 and y = 40 => x = 80 . But there is no need to do all this when you already have options.

The sum of the digits of a two digit number is 10. If 18 be subtracted from it the digits in the resulting number will be equal. The number is a) 37 b) 73 c) 75 d) none of these numbers. How to do above sum without option verfication

latest answer

using options is simpler as it saves time and helps a student spend more time on some other questions. x + y = 10 x + 10y - 18=? In this there is no second equation so it cannot be solved using equations as x & y can have multiple answers

Sir can you please explain 12th question of exercise 13(A) in syllogism chapter through VENN DIAGRAM only...

latest answer

Conclusion 1 - Some erasers are papers. this is true As X = C + B + A and if B & C are >0, then some erasers are papers. If B&C are both 0 even then Erasers are papers. The Conclusion stands whether value of B& C is = 0 or >0 Conclusion 2 - Some pens are not papers - this is false because if B= 0, then all pens are papers So final Answer is a - only Conclusion 1 is right
