Sonia had a recurring deposit account in a bank and deposited Rs. 600 per month for  212 years. If the rate of interest was 10% p.a., find the maturity value of this account.

Solution

Given:  P = Rs. 600,  n = 30 months  and   r = 10%

 I = Rs.  600 × 30 ( 30 + 1 ) 2 × 12 × 10100        = Rs.  2325

Since sum deposited = p x n = Rs.  600 x 30

                               = Rs. 18000

Thus, the maturity value = Rs. ( 18000 + 2325 ) = Rs. 20325.

Cards bearing numbers 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18 and 20 are kept in a bag. A card is drawn at random from the bag. Find the probability of getting a card which is: 

(i) a prime number.


(ii) a number divisible by 4.


(iii) a number that is a multiple of 6.


(iv) an odd number.

Solution

Total number of cards = 10

( i ) Prime number card is 2.

 Number of favourable outcomes = 1

 Required probability = 110

 

( ii ) Cards having number divisible by  4  are  4,  8,  12,  16,  20.

⇒  Number of favourable outcomes = 5

 Required probability  = 510 = 12

 

( iii ) Cards having number that is multiple of  6  are  6,  12,  18.

⇒  Number of favourable outcomes = 3

 Required probability = 310

 

( iv ) Odd number card is not there.

⇒  Number of favourable outcomes = 0

 Required probability  = 0

Find the value of and 'y' if: 

2    x       7 9      y - 5   +   6  - 74      5  =   10      722    15 

Solution

2   x79   y - 5     +  6  - 74      5  =  10   722  15     2x   1418      2 y - 10     +  6  - 74      5  =  10   722  15    2 x + 6        14 - 718 + 4     2 y - 10 + 5  =   10   722  15    2 x + 6        722     2 y - 5  =   10   722  15 

 

 2 x + 6 = 10    and   2 y - 5 = 15

 

⇒ 2 x = 4     and     2 y = 20

 

⇒  x = 2     and    y = 10

The circumference of the base of a cylindrical vessel is 132 cm and its height is 25 cm. Find the

(i) radius of the cylinder

(ii) volume of cylinder ( use   use π =227)

Solution

Let the radius of the cylindrical vessel be  r  and its height be  h.

 Height = h = 25 cm.

( i ) Circumference  of the base = 132 cm.

 2 π r = 132  2 × 227 × r = 132  r = 21 cm 

( ii ) Volume of cylinder = π r2 h                                     =  227 × 21 × 21 × 25                                     =  22 × 3 × 21 ×  25                                       = 34650 cm3

If (k – 3), (2k + l) and (4k + 3) are three consecutive terms of an A.P., find the value of k.

Solution

( k - 3 ),  ( 2 k + 1 )  and  ( 4 k + 3 )  are three consecutive terms of an A.P.

 2 ( 2 k + 1 ) = ( k - 3 ) + ( 4 k + 3 )

⇒  4 k + 2 = k - 3 + 4 k + 3

⇒  4 k + 2 = 5 k

⇒  k = 2
