The locus of point of trisections of the focal chords of the parabola, ${y^2} = 4x$ :

  1. ${y^2} = x - 1$
  2. $9{y^2} = 4\left( {3x - 4} \right)$
  3. ${y^2} = 2\left( {1 - x} \right)$
  4. None of these

B Correct answer
Explanation

The focal chord of y^2 = 4x passes through (1, 0). If the endpoints are (t1^2, 2t1) and (t2^2, 2t2), the condition for a focal chord is t1*t2 = -1. The point of trisection divides the chord in ratio 1:2 or 2:1. Calculating the locus of these points yields 9y^2 = 4(3x - 4).

Prove that $\dfrac{a^{-1}}{(a^{-1}+b^{-1})}$ is equal to $\dfrac{b}{(a+b)}$

  1. True

  2. False

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation
$\cfrac{{ a }^{ -1 }}{{ a }^{ -1 }+{ b }^{ -1 }}\Leftrightarrow \cfrac{{ a }^{ -1 }}{\cfrac{1}{a}+\cfrac{1}{b}}$
$\Rightarrow$ $\cfrac{{ a }^{ -1 }}{\cfrac{b+a}{a.b}}$
$\Rightarrow$ $\cfrac{a.b}{a(b+a)}$
$\Rightarrow$ $\cfrac{b}{b+a}$
$\Rightarrow$ $\cfrac{b}{a+b}$
$\therefore$ $\cfrac{{ a }^{ -1 }}{{ a }^{ -1 }+{ b }^{ -1 }}=\cfrac{b}{a+b}$

Numeral for ninety million ninety thousand ninety is

  1. $9090095$
  2. $90090090$
  3. $909090$
  4. None of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation
We know that,

$1$ million $= 1000000$, therefore, $90$ million $= 90000000$

$1$ thousand $= 1000$, therefore, $90$ thousand $= 90000$

Thus, ninety million ninety thousand ninety is

$=90000000+90000+90=90090090$

Hence, numeral for ninety million ninety thousand ninety is $90090090$.

The positive two-digit integers $x$ and $y$ have the same digits, but in reverse order. Which of the following must be a factor of $x + y$? 

  1. $6$
  2. $9$
  3. $10$
  4. $11$
  5. $14$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

$\Rightarrow$  Let two positive integers are $x=17$ and $y=71$.

$\Rightarrow$  $x+y=17+71=88$
$\Rightarrow$  $88=11\times 2 \times 2\times 2$
$\therefore$   From the factors given in the options, $11$ will be the factor of $x+y$.

The general form of $129$ is

  1. $100 \times 1 + 10 \times 2 + 9 \times 1$
  2. $120 \times 1 + 9 \times 1$
  3. $100 \times 1 + 30 \times 1 - 1$
  4. All of the above

A Correct answer
Explanation

General form of a number is denoted by expansion of itself written as sum of multiplication of the digit by its place value.

Therefore, $129$ can be written as $1 \times 100 + 2 \times 10 + 9 \times 1$

The general form of $6.234$ is

  1. $6 + \dfrac {200}{10} + \dfrac {3}{100} + \dfrac {4}{1000}$
  2. $6 + \dfrac {2}{10} + \dfrac {30}{100} + \dfrac {4}{1000}$
  3. $60 + \dfrac {2}{10} + \dfrac {3}{100} + \dfrac {4}{1000}$
  4. $6 + \dfrac {2}{10} + \dfrac {3}{100} + \dfrac {4}{1000}$

D Correct answer
Explanation
Representing the given number in base $10$.
$6.234 = 6\times { 10 }^{ 0 }+2\times { 10 }^{ -1 }+3\times { 10 }^{ -2 }+4\times { 10 }^{ -3 }$
$\Rightarrow 6.234 = 6+ \dfrac { 2 }{ 10 } +\dfrac { 3 }{ 100 } +\dfrac { 4 }{ 1000 } $
