Part 2: Rational Numbers Properties
Q3. Find the additive inverse of the following:
• (i) &frac28;: The additive inverse is -&frac28; (or simplified as -¼).
• (ii) -&frac59;: The additive inverse is &frac59;.
• (iii) (-6) / (-5): Since (-6) / (-5) = &frac65;, its additive inverse is -&frac65;.
Q4. Find the multiplicative inverse (reciprocal) of the following:
• (i) -13: The multiplicative inverse is -&frac11;³.
• (ii) -&frac1;³⁄¹&sup9;: The multiplicative inverse is -&frac1;&sup9;⁄¹³.
• (iii) ⅕: The multiplicative inverse is 5.
Part 3: Linear Equations, Squares & Exponents
Q5. Solve the following equations for x:
• (i) x - 2 = 7
Transposing -2 to RHS: x = 7 + 2 ⇒ x = 9
• (ii) y / 5 = 10
Multiplying both sides by 5: y = 10 × 5 ⇒ y = 50
• (iii) 7x - 9 = 16
Transposing -9 to RHS: 7x = 16 + 9 ⇒ 7x = 25 ⇒ x = &frac2;&sup5;⁄&sup7;
Q6. Find the square of the following numbers:
• (i) 32: 32 × 32 = 1024
• (ii) 35: 35 × 35 = 1225
• (iii) 86: 86 × 86 = 7396
Q7. Find the square root using the Prime Factorization Method:
• (i) 729:
729 = (3 × 3) × (3 × 3) × (3 × 3)
Taking one factor from each pair: √729 = 3 × 3 × 3 = 27
• (ii) 400:
400 = (2 × 2) × (2 × 2) × (5 × 5)
Taking one factor from each pair: √400 = 2 × 2 × 5 = 20
Q8. Evaluate the following exponents:
• (i) 3¯²: 1 / 3² = 1 / 9
• (ii) (-4)¯²: 1 / (-4)² = 1 / 16
• (iii) (½)¯&sup5;: 2&sup5; = 32

Part 4: Data Handling & Statistical Analysis (IPL 2025)
Based on the total runs scored by all 10 active teams in the tournament, we analyze the statistical measures:
Dataset (Total Runs by Teams in ascending order):
2110, 2145, 2210, 2280, 2340, 2390, 2420, 2450, 2490, 2580
• Mean (Average):
Mean = Sum of all runs / Total teams
Sum = 2110 + 2145 + 2210 + 2280 + 2340 + 2390 + 2420 + 2450 + 2490 + 2580 = 23415
Mean = 23415 / 10 = 2341.5 runs
• Median (Middle Value): Since the number of observations (n = 10) is even, the median is the average of
the 5th and 6th terms:
Median = (2340 + 2390) / 2 = 4730 / 2 = 2365 runs
• Mode: Since every team scored a unique total number of runs in this specific range, there is no repeating
value.
Mode = No Mode (All values unique)
• Range: The difference between the maximum and minimum values:
Range = Maximum Runs - Minimum Runs
Range = 2580 - 2110 = 470 runs
Part 5: Graphical Representation
Double Bar Graph Analysis (First 10 Matches of IPL 2025)
To construct a precise double bar graph on standard graph paper, use the finalized match scores below. The
X-axis represents the Match Number, and the Y-axis represents the Runs Scored (Scale: 1 cm = 50 runs).
