Explanation: Given, ⇒ (1)2 + 1 + b =0
a = p3q4 ⇒ 2+b = 0
and b = p2q3 b = –2
HCF of (a, b) = p2q3 So, a:b = –1 : – 2 = 1 : 2
\ pmqn = p2q3
5. (c) 50

Þ n =3
LCM of (a, b) = p3q4 or 2 2 , 3 2 , 4 2 ...............

\ prqs = p3q4 Then, first term a = 2 2
Þ r =3 Common difference d = 3 2 − 2 2
Þ s =4 = 2
(m + n)(r + s) = (2 + 3)(3 + 4) Then,
next term = 4 2 + 2
Þ = 5 × 7 = 5 2

Now, series, : 48, ............... –6, –8, –10
Common difference, d = –8 – (–6)

Explanation: Option (d) cannot be the graph = –2

the system of linear equations is said to be æ x -2 3+ y ö
consistent and has a unique solution. (0, 1) = ç , ÷
è 2 2 ø
4. (a) 1 : 2
x -2 3+ y
Explanation: Given, equations are ax2 + ax + 2 = 0
= 0 and =1
2 2
and x2 + x + b = 0 and, 1 is a common root of
both the equations. Þ x–2=0
x=2
Therefore, it will satisfy both the equations and 3+y=2
P(1) = a(1)2 + a × 1 + 2 = 0 y = –1
⇒ 2a + 2 = 0 Hence, the fourth vertex of the parallelogram is
⇒ a = –1 (2, –1).

36. (i) Given, seating arrangement of students in 37. (i) B(1, 2), F(–2, 9)
the examination room is 1, 3, 5, .......... (BF)2 = (–2 – 1)2 + (9 – 2)2
Here, a1 = 1, a2 = 3, a3 = 5, .......... = (–3)2 + (7)2
= 9 + 49
Now, a2 – a1 = 3 – 1 = 2
= 58
a3 – a2 = 5 – 3 = 2
So, BF = 58 units
Thus, the difference between two seats is 2.
