$-32\times x= 160$, $-23\times y= -115$
What is the value of $x\div y$?

  1. $-1$
  2. $1$
  3. $-5$
  4. $5$

A Correct answer
Explanation
Given, $-32\times x=160, -23\times y=-115$
We have $x=\dfrac{160}{-32}$

and $ y=\dfrac{-115}{-23}=\dfrac{115}{23}$

Thus $\dfrac{x}{y}=\dfrac{160\times 23}{-32\times 115}=-\dfrac{32\times23}{32\times 23}=-1$

Which of the following statements is true?

  1. The product of a positive and a negative integer is negative

  2. The product of a negative and a positive integer may be zero

  3. For all non-zero integers a and b, $a\times b$ is always greater than either a or b
  4. None of these

A Correct answer
Explanation

a) The product of a positive and a negative integer is negative = True

b) The product of a negative and a positive integer may be zero = False
c) For all non-zero integers $a$ and $b$, $a\times b$ is always greater than either $a$ or $b$ = False
Hence option A is correct answer.

What will be the sign of the product if we together multiply $199$ negative integers and $10$ positive integers?

  1. Negative

  2. Positive

  3. Can't say

  4. Data is insufficient

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Multiplication of $2$ negative integer result into positive integer.

 
If we multiply $199$ negative integer, then the result will be negative integer

Now if we multiply $10$ positive numbers with $199$ negative integers 

we will get a negative integer because multiplication of negative and positive 
integer will always result in negative integer.

Hence option A is correct.

Which of the following statement is CORRECT?

  1. The product of a positive and a negative integer is always negative.

  2. The addition of a negative and a positive integer is always zero.

  3. For all non-zero integers a and b, a X b is always greater than either a or b.

  4. None of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

In option (A)       $-x\times x=-x^{2}$ which is always negative. option is correct.

In option (B)        $ -x+y$ not equals to $0$ it zero only when $x=y$  option is incorrect.
In option (C)         let $a=-3$ and $b=4$ then $a\times b=-3\times 4=-12$  which is less than both a and b. hence this option is also incorrect.
hence only option $A$ is correct.

A teacher assigns $5$ points for a correct answer, and $-2$ points for an incorrect answer, and $0$ points for leaving the questioned unanswered. What is the score for a student who had $22$ correct
answers, $15$ incorrect answers, and $7$ unanswered questions? 

  1. $60$
  2. $75$
  3. $80$
  4. $93$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Since, the teacher assigns 5 points for a correct answer, and −2 points for an correct answer, and 0 points for leaving the questioned unanswered.

So,the student gets $(22\times 5) +(15\times -2)+ (7\times 0)  = 80$
