Answer: 4 Feedback: Cost of a tubelight = Rs. t and cost of a bulb = Rs. b t + b = 52 Cost of bulb drops by 20% and cost of tubelight increases by 50% ⇒ 1.5t + 0.8b = 50 Solving the two equations in ‘t’ and ‘b’, t + b = 52 1.5t + 0.8b = 50 Multiplying first equation by 4 and second equation by 5, 4t + 4b = 208 7.5t + 4b = 250 Subtracting, 3.5t = 42 ⇒ t = 12 Thus, cost of a tubelight = Rs. 12
25. Answer: 3 Feedback: Let x be the number of questions answered correctly, y be wrong attempts and z be number of questions not attempted. Then, net score 32 = x – y/3 – z/6 =32; 6x -2y-z = 192. Also, x + y + z = 50. Adding, we get 7x - y = 242, or y = 7x - 242. By hit and trial, we get y = 3 for x = 35. y cannot be less than 3 for integral values of x.
26. Answer: 1 Feedback: f(x) = 2x2 + a(b – c)2 + abc. As we know that for an equation ax2 + bx + c = 0, the minimum or maximum value of f(x) lies at x = –b/2a Therefore,–a(b – c) 2/4 = – 54 or a(b – c)2 = 216 ...(i) Now, the sum a + (b – c) + (b – c) will be minimum when a=b–c=6 Hence, the minimum value of a + 2(b – c) = 6 + 6 + 6 = 18 Hence, option (1) is the correct choice. 27. Answer: 2 Feedback: f(x) = |x - 2| + |2.5 - x| + |3.6 - x|. This can attain minimum value when either of the terms = 0. Case I: When |x - 2| = 0 then x = 2, the value of f(x) = 0 + 0.5 + 1.6 = 2.1 Case II: When |2.5-x| = 0 then x = 2.5; value of f(x) = 0.5 + 0 + 1.1= 1 .6. Case III: When |3.6-x| = 0 then x=3.6; value of f(x) = 1.6 + 1.1 +0 = 2.7. Hence the minimum value of f(x) is 1.6 at x = 2.5. 28. Answer: 2 Feedback: Let, the values of ‘x’ and ‘z’ be denoted by (y - 2 sqrt(5)) and (y + 2 sqrt(5)) 25 = (y – 2 sqrt(5) ) (y) (y + 2 sqrt(5) ) ⇒ y3 = 25 + 20y y5⇒= Therefore, x + y + z = 3y = 15

Answer: 4 Feedback: Since the last digit in base 2, 3 and 5 is 1, the number should be such that on dividing by either 2, 3 or 5 we should get a remainder 1. The smallest such number is 31. The next set of numbers are 61, 91. Among these only 31 and 91 are a part of the answer choices. Among these, (31)10 ? (11111)2?(1011)3?(111)5
Thus, all three forms have leading digit 1. Hence the answer is 91. 35. Answer: 2 Feedback: There are 99 integers in all, of which 49 are even. From 101 to 199, there are 14 multiples of 7, of which 7 are even. There are 11 multiples of 9, of which 6 are even. But there is one integer (i.e. 126) that is a multiple of both 7 and 9 and also even. Hence the answer is (49 – 7 – 6 + 1) = 37 36. Answer: 5 Feedback: We can see that x + 2 is an increasing function and 5 – x is a decreasing function. This system of equation will have smallest value at the point of intersection of the two. i.e. 5 – x = x + 2 or x = 1.5. Thus smallest value of g(x) = 3.5 37. Answer: 3 Feedback: If y = 2 (it cannot be 0 or 1), then x can take 1 value and z can take 2 values. Thus with y = 2, a total of 1 X 2 = 2 numbers can be formed. With y = 3, 2 X 3 = 6 numbers can be formed. Similarly checking for all values of y from 2 to 9 and adding up we get the answer as 240 38. Answer: 4 Feedback: The number of terms of the series forms the sum of first n natural numbers i.e. n(n + 1)/2. Thus the first 23 letters will account for the first (23 x 24)/2 = 276 terms of the series. The 288th term will be the 24th letter viz. x. 39. Answer: 3 Feedback: 2x – x – 1 = 0 2x – 1 = x If we put x = 0, then this is satisfied and we put x = 1, then this is also satisfied. Now we put x = 2, then this is not valid. 40. Answer: 1 Feedback: Let us say there are only 3 questions. Thus there are 23–1 = 4 students who have done 1 or more questions wrongly, 23–2 = 2 students who have done 2 or more questions wrongly and 23–3 = 1 student who must have done all 3 wrongly. Thus total number of wrong answers = 4 + 2 + 1 = 7 = 23 – 1
= 2n – 1. In our question, the total number of wrong answers = 4095 = 212 – 1. Thus n = 12. 41. Answer: 4 Feedback: Tn = a + (n – 1)d 467 = 3 + (n – 1)8 n = 59 Half of n = 29 terms 29th term is 227 and 30th term is 243 and when these two terms are added the sum is more than 470.

Answer: 4 Feedback: S = (–5) + (–3) + (–1) + 1 + 3 + ....... S = (2 × 1 – 7) + (2 × 2 – 7) + (2 × 3 – 7) + (2 × 4 – 7) + ....... Tn = (2n – 7)
∴ a – b = –7 44. Answer: 4 Feedback: Given that a0 = 2, a1 = 1 and For n = 1: a2 a0 = a0 – a2. ⇒ 2a2 = 2 – a2 ⇒ a2 =2/3
Similarly, a3 =1/2=2/4, a4=2/5, etc. Observing the terms a2, a3, a4.... etc, one can easily figure out that an is 2/(n+1) So a1000 = 2 /1001 45. Answer: 2 Feedback: Let the length, breadth and the height of the cuboid be L, B and H. We are given that L2 + B2 + H2 = 102 = 100. Using A.M. ≥ G.M. property, we can write
⇒L2 + B2 + H2 ≥ (LB + BH + LH) ⇒ 2 × (L2 + B2 + H2 ) ≥ 2 × (LB + BH + LH) ⇒ Total surface Area ≤ 200. 46. Answer: 3 Feedback: The function f(n) is nothing but the Fibonacci Series 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89… Here if we find the HCF of any two numbers in the series, we get an interesting pattern. Lets find the HCF of f(6) and f(9), i.e. 8 and 34 respectively. The HCF of 8 and 34 is 2, which is also equal to f(3). Similarly lets find the HCF of f(10) and f(5), i.e. 55 and 5 respectively. The HCF of 55 and 5 is 5, which is also equal to f(5). After checking for other numbers as well we can conclude that the HCF of f(a) and f(b) is f(h), where ‘h’ is the HCF of ‘a’ and ‘b’. Therefore, the HCF of f(12) and f(30) is f(HCF of 12 and 30), i.e. f(6). Hence option (3) is the correct choice. 47. Answer: 2 Feedback: Case I: When Sanjay and Salim are selected and Reena and Teena are not selected. Total number of ways in which the team can be selected = 6C4 = 15. Case II: When Reena or Teena is selected and both Sanjay and Salim are not selected. Total number of ways in which the team can be selected
= 2 × 6C5 = 12. Case III: When Reena or Teena is selected and both Sanjay and Salim are selected. Total number of ways in which the team can be selected = 2 × 6C3 = 40. Case IV: When none of Reena, Teena, Sanjay and Salim are selected in the team. Total number of ways in which the team can be selected = 1. Therefore, the total number of ways in which the team can be selected = 15 + 12 + 40 + 1 = 68. 48. Answer: 4 Feedback: Chord AB passes through point P but its length is not fixed. After choosing the point C, area of ∆ABC can be calculated. Let CM, be the altitude on side AB. As AC = BC, Area of ∆ABC = 1/2×AB*CM The minimum value of area(∆ABC) is obtained when AB has the shortest possible length, as shown in the figure below. In this case, point M and P are same.
Hence, (4) is the correct option. 49. Answer: 5 Feedback: x = Price of a Pen and y = Price of a Pencil a = Number of pens Raju wanted to purchase b = Number of pencils Raju wanted to purchase s = bill amount calculated by Raju We have two equations: ax + by = s ...(i) bx + ay = s + 24 ...(ii) Subtracting (i) from (ii), we get ⇒(b − a )(x − y) = 24 = 23 × 3. Clearly, all the statements can be valid. Hence option (5) is the correct choice 50. Answer: 2 Feedback:
