CASE STUDY QUESTIONS (Attempt any four questions from Q12 and Q13)
12. The speed of a motor boat is 20 km/hr. For covering the distance of 15 km the boat
took 1 hour more for upstream than downstream.
 (a) Let speed of the stream be x km/hr. then speed of the motorboat in upstream will
be
(i) 20 km/hr (ii) (20 + x) km/hr (iii) (20–x) km/hr (iv) 2 km/hr

(b) What is the relation between speed, distance and time?

(i) speed = (distance )/time (ii) distance = (speed )/time
(iii) time = speed × distance (iv) speed = distance × time

(c) Which is the correct quadratic equation for the speed of the current ?
(i) x2 + 30x − 200 = 0 (ii) x2 + 20x − 400 = 0
(iii) x2 + 30x − 400 = 0 (iv) x2 − 20x − 400 = 0

(d) What is the speed of current ?

(i) 20 km/hour (ii) 10 km/hour (iii) 15 km/hour (iv) 25 km/hour

(e) How much time boat took in downstream?

(i) 90 minutes (ii) 15 minutes (iii) 30 minutes (iv) 45 minutes

13. Your elder brother wants to buy a car and plans to take loan from a bank for his car.

instalment of ₹ 1000. If he increases the instalment by ₹ 100 every month, answer the
following:

(a) The amount paid by him in 30th instalment is

(i) 3900 (ii) 3500 (iii) 3700 (iv) 3600

(c) What amount does he still have to pay offer 30th instalment?
(i) 45500 (ii) 49000 (iii) 44500 (iv) 54000
(d) If total installments are 40 then amount paid in the last instalment?
(i) 4900 (ii) 3900 (iii) 5900 (iv) 9400
(e) The ratio of the 1st installment to the last instalment is
(i) 1:49 (ii) 10:49 (iii) 10:39 (iv) 39:10
