10.
Recall the identity a2 - b2 = (a - b)(a + b). Using it, we can write:
x2 - 3 = (x - \(\sqrt{3}\))(x + \(\sqrt{3}\))
So, the value of x2 - 3 is zero when x = \(\sqrt{3}\) or x = -\(\sqrt{3}\)
Therefore, the zeroes of x2 - 3 are \(\sqrt{3}\) and -\(\sqrt{3}\)
Now,
sum of zeroes = \(\sqrt{3}\) - \(\sqrt{3}\) = 0 = \(\frac{-(Coefficient \quad of \quad x)}{Coefficient \quad of \quad x^{2}}\)
product of zeroes = (\(\sqrt{3}\))(-\(\sqrt{3}\)) = -3 = \(\frac{-3}{1}=\frac{Constant \quad term}{Coefficient \quad of \quad x^{2}}\)
11.
Factors of 1 to 10 numbers
1 = 1
2 = 1 x 2
3 = 1 x 3
4 = 1 x 2 x 2
5 = 1 x 5
6 = 1 x 2 x 3
7 = 1 x 7
8 = 1 x 2 x 2 x 2
9 = 1 x 3 x 3
10 = 1 x 2 x 5
\(\therefore \) LCM of numbers 1 to 10
= LCM (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10)
= 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 7 = 2520
12.
\(a={ x }^{ 3 }{ y }^{ 2 }=x\times x\times x\times y\times y\) and \(b={ x }{ y }^{ 3 }=x\times y\times y\times y\)
HCF (a,b) = xy2
13.
Let a be any positive integer.
We know that, any odd positive integer is of the form 2q + 1, where q is a whole number.
\(\therefore \) a = 2q + 1
\(\Rightarrow \) a2 = (2q + 1)2 [squaring both sides]
\(\Rightarrow \) a2 = 4q(q + 1) + 1 ...(i)
Note that q(q + 1) is either '0' or even, for any whole number q.
So, let q(q + 1) = 2m where m is a whole number.
From Eq.(i), we get a2 = 4(2m) + 1 = 8m + 1
14.
No, because by Euclid's division lemma,
we have, a = 4q + r, \(0\le r<4\) ...(i)
a can be in the form 4q, 4q + 1, 4q + 2 or 4q + 3
15.
(a + 2) + (b + 1),(a + 2) + (b + 2),(a + 3) + (b + 2)

Lert height of rainfall be h cm
V Cuboid = VCylinder
\(lbh=\pi r^{ 2 }h\)
\(22\times 20\times h=\frac { 22 }{ 7 } \times 1\times 1\times \frac { 35 }{ 10 } \)
\(\Rightarrow h=\frac { 11 }{ 22\times 20 } \)
\(\Rightarrow h=\frac { 1 }{ 40 } m=2.5cm\)
22.
Possible outcomes on tossing a coin 3 times, are HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, HTT, THT, TTH, TTT
\(\therefore\) Total number of outcomes = 8
(i) Let E1 be the event that Sweta losses the entry fee
i.e. shen tosses tail three times i.e. TTT.
\(\therefore\) Number of outcomes favourable to E1 = 1
Hence, required probability = P(E1) = \(\frac{1}{8}\)
(ii) Let E2, be the event that Sweta gets double entry fee
i.e. she tosses heads three times
i.e. HHH
\(\therefore\) Number of outcomes favourable to E2 = 1
Hence, required probability \(=P\left(E_2\right)=\frac{1}{8}\)
(iii) Let E3 be the event that Sweta gets her entry fee back
i.e. Sweta gets heads one or two times
i.e. event of getting
HTT, THT, TTH, HHT, HTH or THH
\(\therefore\) Number of outcomes favourable to E3 = 6
Hence, required probability = P(E3) = \(\frac{6}{8}=\frac{3}{4}\)
23.
A.T.Q., S5 + S7 = 167
\(\Rightarrow\) \({5\over2}[2a+14d]+{7\over2}[2a+6d]=167\)
\(\Rightarrow\) 5 ( a + 2d ) + 7 ( a + 3d ) = 167
\(\Rightarrow\) 12a + 31d = 167 ...(i)
and S10 = 235
\(\Rightarrow\) \({10\over2}[2a+9d]=235\)
\(\Rightarrow\) 2a + 9d = \({235\over4}=47\) ...(ii)
Multiplying equation (ii) by 6 and then subtractigfrom (i), we have
12a + 31d = 167
12a + 54d = 282
- - -
-23d = -115
d= \({-115\over-23}=5\)
\(\therefore\) From (ii), 2a + 9d = 47
\(\Rightarrow\) 2a + 9 x 5 = 47
\(\Rightarrow\) 2a = 47 - 45
\(\Rightarrow\) 2a = 2 \(\Rightarrow\) a = 1
Hence, S20 = \({20\over2}[2a+19d]\)
= 10 [ 2 x 1 + 19x 5 ]
= 10 [ 2 + 95 ] = 10 x 97 = 970
24.
Here a = 1, d = 1 and n = 31
Sn = \({n\over2}[2a+(n-1)d]\)
\(={31\over2}[2\times1+(31-1)]\)
\(={31\over2}[2+30]={31\over2}\times 32\)
= 496
\(\therefore\) Piggy bank amount = Rs 496
Amount spent = Rs 204
Amount left = Rs 100
Total pocket money = Rs 800
25.
\(\because\) S6 = 36 and S16 = 256.
\(\Rightarrow\) S6 = \({6\over2}\) [ 2a + 5d ]
[ \(\because\) Sn = \({n\over2} [ 2a + ( n - 1)d ]\)
\(\Rightarrow\) S6 = 3 ( 2a + 5d )
\(\Rightarrow\) \({36\over3}\) = 2a + 5d
\(\Rightarrow\) 12 = 2a + 5d ...(i)
and S16 = \({16\over2}[2a+15d]\)
\(\Rightarrow\) \({256\over8}=2a+15d\)
\(\Rightarrow\) 32 = 2a + 15d ...(ii)
Subtracting (i) and (ii), 2n + 5d = 12
2a + 15d = 32
- - -
-10d = -20 \(\Rightarrow\) d = 2
\(\therefore\) From (i), 12 = 2a + 5(2)
12 - 10 = 2a \(\Rightarrow\) 2a = 2 \(\Rightarrow\) a = 1
Hence S10 = \({10\over2}[2a+9d]\)
= 5 ( 2 x 1 + 9 x 2 )
= 5 ( 2 + 18 )
\(\Rightarrow\) S10 = 5 x 20 = 100.
