Which of the following shows the maximum rise in temperature$?$
  • A
    $23^\circ$ to $32^\circ$
  • $-10^\circ $ to $+1^\circ $
  • C
    $-18^\circ $ to $-11^\circ $
  • D
    $-5^\circ $ to $+5^\circ $
Answer
Correct option: B.
$-10^\circ $ to $+1^\circ $
 
$a.\ 32^\circ -23^\circ = 9^\circ $
$b.\ 1^\circ -(-10^\circ ) = 1^\circ +10^\circ = 11^\circ $
$c.\ 11^\circ -(-18^\circ ) = 11^\circ + 18^\circ = 7^\circ $
$d.\ 5^\circ -(-5 ) = 5^\circ +5^\circ = 10^\circ $
Therefore, the maximum rise is shown by option bis $11$ degrees.

The largest number that divides $64$ and $72$ and leave the remainders $12$ and $7$ respectively, is:
  • A
    $17$
  • $13$
  • C
    $14$
  • D
    $18$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$13$

Subtract $12$ and $7$ from $64$ and $72$ respectively.
$64 - 12 = 52$
$72 - 7 = 65$
The required number is the $HCF$ of $52$ and $65.$
Now,
$52 = 4 \times 13$
$65 = 5 \times 13$
$\therefore HCF\ 52$ and $65 = 13$
Therefore, the largest number that divides $64$ and $72$ and leave the remainder $12$ and $7$ respectively, is $13.$
Hence, the correct option is $(b)$.

Answer
Correct option: D.
$+ 110$

Let the other integer be $xx.$ One of the integer is given that is $-48$Also, it is given that the sum of the two integers is $+62.$ Therefore, we have:
$x + (−48) = + 62$
$\Rightarrow x - 48 - 62$

Let the age of the sons be $x$ and $y.$
Given that Father $8217;s$ age is three times the age of his two children.
Therefore, the present age of the father is $3 (x + y)$
Now, it is also given, after $5$ years, his age will be twice the sum of the ages of his children.
Therefore, after $55$ years age of the father will be $3 (x + y) + 5$ and age of the children will be $x + 5$ and $y + 5.$
$3 (x + y) + 5 = 2(x + 5 + y + 5)$
$3x + 3y + 5 = 2x + 10 + 2y + 10$
$3x + 3y + 5 = 2x + 2y + 20$
$3x - 2x + 3y - 2y = 20–5$
$x + y = 15$
Now the age of father was $3(x + y) + 3 (15) = 45 ($Putting the value of $x + y)$
Thus the age of the father is $45$

The statement "When an integer is added to itself, the sum is greater than the integer" is:
  • A
    Always true.
  • B
    Never true.
  • True only when the integer is positive.
  • D
    True for non-negative integers.
Answer
Correct option: C.
True only when the integer is positive.

Suppose we take two integers one positive $(+1)$ and other negative $-1.$
On adding $1$ to itself, we get $1 + 1 = 2.$
Here, the sum is greater than the integer $(+1).$
Again, adding $-1$ to itself, we get $-1 + (-1) = -1 -1 = -2$
Here, the sum is less than the integer $-1.$
Hence, the given statement is true only when the integer is positive.

  • $-4^\circ C$ to $8^\circ C.$
  • C

  • D
    $-7^\circ C$ to $0^\circ C.$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$-4^\circ C$ to $8^\circ C.$
 
We know that, the maximum rise in the temperature is equal to the maximum value of difference of two temperatures.
$a.\ $Difference of $0^\circ C to 10^\circ C = 10^\circ C - 0^\circ C = +10^\circ C.$
$b.\ $Difference of $-4^\circ C to 8^\circ C = 8^\circ C - (-4^\circ C) = 8^\circ C + 4^\circ C = +12^\circ C$ [maximum]
$c.\ $Difference of $-15^\circ C to -8^\circ C = -8^\circ C - (-15^\circ C) = -8^\circ C + 15^\circ C = +7^\circ C.$
$d.\ $Difference of $-7^\circ C to 0^\circ C = 0^\circ C - (-7^\circ C) = 0^\circ C + 7^\circ C = +7^\circ C$ Hence, the option $(b)$ shows the maximum rise in temperature.

has no positive integer solutions.
  • It has no positive integer solutions.
  • B
    It has positive integer solution.
  • C
    The equations do not have any solutions.
  • D
    The equations has negative integer solution.
Answer
Correct option: A.
It has no positive integer solutions.
we can assume that $\operatorname{gcd}( x , y , z , t )=1$.
Adding up the equations yields $7\left( x ^2+ y ^2\right)= z ^2+ t ^2$.
The square residues modulo $7$ are $0,1,2$, and $4 .$
It is not difficult to see that the only pair of residues which add up to o modulo $7$ is $(o, o)$, hence $z$ and $t$ are divisible by $7$ .
Setting $z=7 z_1$ and $t=7 t_1$ yields $7\left( x ^2+ y ^2\right)=49\left( z _1^2+ t _1^2\right)$ or $x ^2+ y ^2=7\left( z _1^2+ t _1^2\right)$
It follows that $x$ and $y$ are also divisible by $7 .$

  • $A$ is cooler than $B.$
  • B
    $B$ is cooler than $A.$
  • C
    There is a difference of $2^\circ C$ in the temperature.
  • D
    The temperature at $A$ is $4^\circ C$ higher than that at $B.$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$A$ is cooler than $B.$

We know that, if the temperature decreases, the cooling increases.
Given, minimum temperature on a particular at $A = -4^\circ C$ and minimum temperature on a particular at $B = -1^\circ C$ We know that, $-4^\circ C < -1^\circ C.$
So, $A$ is cooler than $6.$
Hence, option $(a)$ is true.

When a negative integer is subtracted from another negative integer, the sign of the result:
  • A
    Is always negative.
  • B
    Is always positive.
  • C
    Is never negative.
  • Depends on the numerical value of the integers.
Answer
Correct option: D.
Depends on the numerical value of the integers.

Suppose we take two negative integers $-2$ and $-3.$
We subtract $(-3)$ from $(-2)$ and give a minus sign to get the result. i.e $-2 -(-3) = -2 + 3 = 1.$
Again, we subtract $(-2)$ from $-3$ and give a plus sign to get the result. i.e $-3 - (-2) = -3 + 2 = -1.$
So, the sign of the result depends on the numerical value of the integers..

  • A
    $60$
  • B

Answer
Correct option: D.
$-96$

Write given integers in addition expression and we get:
$(+138) + (-234)$
Subtract smaller integer $138138$ from bigger integer $234$ as follows: $234 - 138 = 96$
Since, the bigger integer $234$ is a negative integer, so the result should also be negative that is $-96$

Let $n$ be an integer number. Prove that the equation has infinitely $x^2 + y^2 = n + z^2$ many integer solutions.
  • $z = x − 1$
  • B
    $z = x + 1$
  • C
    $z = x × 1$
  • D
    $z = x /1$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$z = x − 1$
The equation is equivalent to $(x - z) (x + z) + y^2= n.$ If we set $x - z =$ then we obtain $2x - 1 + y^2 = n$ and $\text{x} = \frac{\text{n + 1 - y}^2}{2}$ . Now, it suffices tso take $y = n + m,$ where m is an odd integer to insure that $x$ is an integer as well. Indeed, if $m = 1$ kt $1$ then,
$\frac{\text{n + 1 - y}^2}{2} = \frac{\text{n+1-(n+2k+1)}^2}{2}=-\frac{\text{n (n + 1)}}{2}\\-2\text{nk}-2\text{nk}^2-2\text{k,}$
