ANSWER KEY: ALGEBRA & LINEAR EQUATIONS (Q51–Q100)

Algebra Formula Reference
●​ Distributive Law: $a(b + c) = ab + ac$
●​ Difference of Squares: $a^2 - b^2 = (a - b)(a + b)$
 ●​ Square of a Sum: $(a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2$
●​ Quadratic Factoring (Trinomials): $x^2 + (p+q)x + pq = (x + p)(x + q)$
●​ Inverse Operations for Equations:
○​ If $x + a = b \rightarrow x = b - a$
○​ If $ax = b \rightarrow x = b/a$

Formula Reference Guide

1. Basic Percentage:

Value = (Percentage / 100) × Total

2. Percentage Increase:

New Value = Original × (1 + Increase% / 100)

3. Percentage Decrease:

New Value = Original × (1 - Decrease% / 100)

4. Profit Percentage:

Profit% = ((Selling Price - Cost Price) / Cost Price) × 100

5. Loss Percentage:

Loss% = ((Cost Price - Selling Price) / Cost Price) × 100

6. Finding Original Price (from New Price):

Original = New Price / (1 + Change% / 100)

Multiply (2:3) × 4 and (4:5) × 3

Result: 8:12:15

3. Dividing a Total into Ratios:

Sum of Ratio Parts = x + y + z

Value of 1 Part = Total Amount ÷ Sum of Parts

Specific Share = Value of 1 Part × Specific Ratio Number

Essential Formulas for This Set

Before checking the answers, here are the mechanics behind the solutions:

Simplification:

To simplify A:B, divide both numbers by their Greatest Common Divisor (GCD).

Finding a Single Part:

Value of one part = Total Quantity / Sum of Ratio Parts

Finding a Specific Share:

Specific Share = Value of one part × Ratio of that part

Successive Ratios (Sum of Parts):

For a ratio A:B:C, total parts = A + B + C
