Q 4 - The sum of all two digit numbers divisible by 7 is?

A - 215

B - 535

C - 735

D - none of these

Answer : C

Explanation

7, 14, 21, ..., 98
A.P: a = 7, d = 7, l =98
tn = 98
= a + (n - 1)d
i.e. 98 = 7 + (n - 1)7
n = 14
Sum = n2 (a + l)
= 142 (7 + 98 )
= 735

A - 45

B - -45

C - -54

D - -55

Answer : D

Explanation

   Using formula a2 - b2 = (a-b)(a+b) 12 - 22 + 32 - 42 +..+ 92 -102 = (1-2)(1+2) + (3-4)(3+4) + (5-6)(5+6) + (7-8)(7+8) + (9-10)(9+10) = (-3) + (-7) + (-11) + (-11) + (-15) + (-19) = -55

  y =5358 x 51  =5358 x (50 + 1)  =5358 x 50 + 5358  =267900 + 5358  =273258  

Q 8 - 106 x 106 + 94 x 94 = y. What is y?

A - 20052

B - 20062

C - 20072

D - 20042

Answer : B

Explanation

  y = 106 x 106 + 94 x 94    = (106)2 + (94)2  = (100 + 6)2 + (100 -6)2  Using formulae (a+b)2 = a2 + b2 + 2ab and  (a-b)2 = a2 + b2 - 2ab  (a+b)2 + (a-b)2 = 2(a2 + b2)  ∴ y = 2 x [(100)2 + (6)2]  = 2 x [10000 + 36]  = 2 x 10036  = 20072
