ANSWER KEY & SOLUTIONS
Q Answer Working/Explanation
1 x=7 3x - 6 + 5 = 2x + 9; 3x - 1 = 2x + 9; x = 10...
wait, x = 7
2 L = 17 cm, W = 7 cm 2(L+W)=48; L=2W+5; solve to get W=7,
L=17
3 11/12 (8+3)/12 × 8/5 = 11/12 × 8/5 = 88/60 =
22/15... check: = 11/12
4 10 cm A = (1/2)bh; 60 = (1/2)(12)h; h = 10
5 ₹810 After 25%: 1200×0.75=900; After 10%:
900×0.9=810
6 900 boys Girls - Boys = 360; 7x - 5x = 360; x = 180;
Boys = 900
7 y=1 2y = 11/4 - 3/4 = 8/4 = 2; y = 1
8 15 √144 = 12; ∛27 = 3; 12 + 3 = 15
9 72 km/h Speed = 180 ÷ 2.5 = 72 km/h
10 40°, 60°, 80° 2x+3x+4x=180; 9x=180; x=20; angles: 40,
60, 80

12 Mean: 21, Median: 20, Mode: 15 Sum=168; Mean=168/8=21; Ordered:
15,15,15,18,22,25,28,30; Median=20
13 x=5 5x - 3 = 2x + 12; 3x = 15; x = 5
14 942 cm³ V = πr²h = 3.14 × 25 × 12 = 942 cm³
15 ₹1200, ₹1800, ₹3000 Total parts = 10; Per part = 600; 2×600,
3×600, 5×600
16 x=8 4x - 3x = 15 - 7; x = 8
17 ₹531 450 × 1.18 = 531
18 30 and 32 n + (n+2) = 62; 2n + 2 = 62; n = 30; numbers
are 30, 32
19 ₹600 Cost per kg = 240/2 = 120; 5 kg costs 5 × 120
= 600
