Expenditure incurred in cultivating a square field at the rate of Rs. $170$ per hectare is Rs. $680$. What would be the cost of fencing the field at the rate of Rs. $3$ per meter?

  1. Rs. $2400$

  2. Rs. $3600$

  3. Rs. $3000$

  4. Rs. $2000$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
Total cost of cultivation$=$Rs.$680$
Cost per hectare$=$Rs. $170$
$\therefore $Area of cultivation$=\cfrac { 680 }{ 170 } =4$ hectare$=4\times { 10 }^{ 4 }m^2$
Now, field's shape is square, therefore area $=side \times side$
$\Rightarrow 4\times { 10 }^{ 4 }={ (side) }^{ 2 }$
$\Rightarrow $ side$=\sqrt { 4\times { 10 }^{ 4 } } =200m$
Perimeter of field$=4\times 200=800m$
$\therefore $ Cost of fencing $800m=$ Rs.$\left( 3\times 800 \right) =$ Rs.$2400$

Choose the correct option:

$8$m $5$ cm = .......... cm

  1. $850$

  2. $8005$

  3. $8050$

  4. $805$


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

$1m=100 cm$

$\Rightarrow 8m=800cm$
$\therefore 8m 5cm = 800+5=805 cm$

A person bought $32$L of water for the football game and he divided the water equally into $8$ cooler. Find the quantity of water in each of the coolers by converting it into millilitres.

  1. $40$ ml

  2. $400$ ml

  3. $4000$ ml

  4. $40000$ ml


Correct Option: C
Explanation:
Quantity of water$=32ℓ=32000㎖$
Number of cooler$=8$
$\therefore $Quantity of water in each cooler$=\cfrac { 32000 }{ 8 } =4000㎖$

Rekha started her homework at $1:59$ pm point and finished her homework  $96$ minutes later. Rekha had volleyball practice at $4:00$ pm. How much time(in minutes) did Susan have between finishing her homework and the beginning of volleyball.

  1. $25$ m

  2. $205$ m

  3. $30$ m

  4. $35$ m


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
Starting time of homework$=1.59pm$
Time taken$=96$ minutes $=1$ hour $36$ minutes
i.e., Home work complete by $3:35pm$
Time between finishing homework and beginning of
Volley ball$=4:00pm-3:35pm=25$ minutes.

Capacity of measuring flask is $1$ litre.What it will be in cubic centimeter $?$

  1. $1$ Cubic centimetre

  2. $10$ Cubic centimetre

  3. $100$ Cubic centimetre

  4. $1000$ Cubic centimetre


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

$1000$ cubic centimetre
$1$ litre $=  1000 cm^3$

$\therefore$ The solution is $1000$ cubic centimetre.



State the following statement is True or False
$891$ cm can also be written as $89$ m $3$ cm

  1. True

  2. False


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

$891$ cm $=890$ cm $+$ $1$ cm $=89$ m $1$ cm

Thus $891$ cm cannot be written as $89$ m $3$ cm.

How many meters are there in $1.25$ kilometers?

  1. $10.25$ m

  2. $125$ m

  3. $1250$ m

  4. $12500$ m


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

We know that $1km=1000m$

Suppose $1.25km = x$
$\Rightarrow x={1.25}\times 1000$
$\Rightarrow x=1250$ m
Hence, the answer is $1250$ m.

If $\sin { x } +\sin ^{ 2 }{ x } =1$, then the value of $\cos ^{ 12 }{ x } +3\cos ^{ 10 }{ x } +3\cos ^{ 8 }{ x } +\cos ^{ 6 }{ x } -2$ is equal to

  1. $0$

  2. $-1$

  3. $-2$

  4. $2$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:
$sinx+sin^2x=1$

or, $sinx=1−sin^2x=cos^2x $

or, $sin^2x=cos^4x$

$cos^{12}x+3cos^{10}x+3cos^8x+cos^6x-2$

$=cos^6x(cos^6x+3cos^4x+3cos^2x+1)-2$

$=cos^6x((cos^2x)^3+3(cos^2x)^2.1+3.cos^2x.1^2+1^3)-2$

$=(cos^2x)^3(cos^2x+1)^3-2$

$=(cos^4x+cos^2x)^3-2$

$=(sin^2x+cos^2x)^3-2$

$=1^3-2$

$=1-2=-1$

In the Taylor series expansion of $\exp \left( x \right) + \sin \left( x \right)$ about the point $x = \pi $, the coefficient of ${\left( {x = \pi } \right)^2}$ is

  1. $\exp \left( \pi \right)$

  2. $0.5\exp \left( \pi \right)$

  3. $\exp \left( \pi \right) + 1$

  4. $\exp \left( \pi \right) - 1$


Correct Option: A

If the sum of the series $\dfrac{3}{1!}+\dfrac{5}{2!}+\dfrac{7}{3!}+\dfrac{9}{4!}+...\infty=Ae+B$
Find the value of $A+B$

  1. $1$

  2. $7$

  3. $0$

  4. $None\ of\ these$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Its general term is $\dfrac{2n+1}{n!}$

So we have to calculate $\sum^{n=\infty} _{n=0}\dfrac{2n+1}{n!}=2\sum^{k=\infty} _{k=0}\dfrac{1}{k!}+\sum^{n=\infty} _{n=0}\dfrac{1}{n!}-2=3e-2$ (using  taylor's expansion for $e^x$)

So A+B=1
