Questions and clear answers

1500 available
01Algebra · foundation · Editorial previewSolve 2x + 5 = 17.+

Subtract 5 to get 2x = 12, then divide by 2: x = 6.

02Geometry · foundation · Editorial previewWhat is the Pythagorean theorem?+

For a right triangle, the squares of the two shorter sides sum to the square of the hypotenuse.

03Calculus · foundation · Editorial previewWhat is the derivative of x squared?+

By the power rule, the derivative of x squared with respect to x is 2x.

04Statistics · foundation · Editorial previewHow do you find the arithmetic mean?+

Add all observations and divide by the number of observations; for 2, 4 and 6 the mean is 4.

05Linear equations · advanced · Editorial previewIn mathematics — Linear equations: Solve 15x + 25 = 31795 for x.+

Subtract 25 and divide by 15: x = 2118.

06Arithmetic · foundation · Editorial previewIn mathematics — Arithmetic: A practice worksheet lists 2729 objects and then 57 more. How many objects are there in total?+

Add the two quantities: 2729 + 57 = 2786 objects in total.

07Percentages · foundation · Editorial previewIn mathematics — Percentages: A sample has 3370 units, of which 3340 meet the stated condition. What percentage meet it, rounded to two decimals?+

99.11% because 3340 ÷ 3370 × 100 = 99.11%.

08Averages · intermediate · Editorial previewIn mathematics — Averages: Four measurements are 3951, 3, 3963 and 15. What is their arithmetic mean?+

Sum = 7932; divide by 4 to get 1983.

09Geometry · foundation · Editorial previewIn mathematics — Geometry: A rectangular study space is 4562 m long and 35 m wide. Find its area.+

Area = length × width = 4562 × 35 = 159670 m².

10Pythagoras · advanced · Editorial previewIn mathematics — Pythagoras: A right triangle has perpendicular sides of 12 cm and 4 cm. Find the hypotenuse to three decimals.+

By Pythagoras, c = √(144 + 16) ≈ 12.649 cm.

11Probability · intermediate · Editorial previewIn mathematics — Probability: A bag contains 785 blue tokens and 40 red tokens. What is the probability of randomly drawing a red token?+

There are 825 tokens, so P(red) = 40/825 ≈ 0.0485.

12Quadratic equations · foundation · Editorial previewIn mathematics — Quadratic equations: Solve x² − 1409x + 18148 = 0.+

Factor as (x − 1396)(x − 13) = 0; x = 1396 or x = 13.

13Simple interest · foundation · Editorial previewIn mathematics — Simple interest: Calculate simple interest on ₹200700 at 2% per year for 5 years.+

SI = PRT/100 = 200700 × 2 × 5/100 = ₹20070.

14Ratios · intermediate · Editorial previewIn mathematics — Ratios: Split 23724 items between two groups in the ratio 2618:18. How many go to the first group?+

The total ratio is 2636 parts. First group = 23724 × 2618/2636 = 23562.

15Speed distance time · advanced · Editorial previewIn mathematics — Speed distance time: A vehicle travels at a constant 3229 km/h for 16 hours. How far does it travel?+

Distance = speed × time = 3229 × 16 = 51664 km.

16Trigonometry · foundation · Editorial previewIn mathematics — Trigonometry: In a right triangle, sides opposite and adjacent to angle θ are 69 cm and 36 cm. Find sin θ to 4 decimals.+

Hypotenuse = √(4761 + 1296) ≈ 77.8267 cm; sin θ = 69/hypotenuse ≈ 0.8866.

17Linear equations · intermediate · Editorial previewIn mathematics — Linear equations: Solve 7x + 55 = 31212 for x.+

Subtract 55 and divide by 7: x = 4451.

18Arithmetic · foundation · Editorial previewIn mathematics — Arithmetic: A practice worksheet lists 63 objects and then 28 more. How many objects are there in total?+

Add the two quantities: 63 + 28 = 91 objects in total.
