  1. Section A (c) Explanation: (^2100) As we know HCF LCM = Product of the Numbers
  2. Hence HCF (a) a > 0, b < 0 and c > 0^ LCM (30,70) = 30^ 70 = 2100 Explanation: Therefore, Clearly, represent a parabola opening upwards. The vertex of the parabola is in the fourth quadrant, therefore b < 0 cuts Y axis at P which lies on OY. Putting So the coordinates of P is (0, c). x = 0 in , we get y = c. Clearly, P lies on OY. Hence, a>0, b<0 and c>0 c>

  1. Let us suppose that the digit at unit place be x Suppose the digit at tens place be y. Thus, the number is 10y + x. According to question it is given that the number is 4 times the sum of the two digits. Therefore, 10y + x = 4(x + y) we have 10y + x = 4x + 4y 4x + 4y - 10y - x = 0 3x - 6y = 0 3(x - 2y) = 0 After interchanging the digits, the number becomes 10x + y.^ x - 2y = 0 Again according to question If 18 is added to the number, the digits are reversed. Thus, we have (10y + x) + 18 = 10x + y 10x + y - 10y - x = 18 9x - 9y = 18 9(x - y) = 18 Therefore, we have the following^ x - y = 2 systems of equations x - 2y = 0 ...........(1) x - y = 2...............(2) Here x and y are unknowns. Now let us solve the above systems of equations for x and y. Subtracting the equation (1) from the (2), we get (x - y) - (x - 2y) = 2 - 0 x - y - x + 2y = 2 Now, substitute^ y = 2 the value of y in equation (1), we get x - 2 x - 4 = 0 2 = 0 Therefore the number is 10^ x = 4 2 + 4 = 24 Thus the number is 24 OR Let the usual speed of the plane = x km/hr. Distance to the destination = 1500 km Case (i): So, in case(i) Time = Case (iI) Hrs Distance to the destination = 1500 km Increased speed = 100 km/hr So, speed = x+100 So, in case(ii) Time = Hrs So, according to the question - =

DR = DS = 3 cm AR = AD - DR = 17 - 3 = 14 cm QB = AB - AQ = 20 - 14 = 6 cm^ AQ = AR = 14 cm Since QB = OP = r radius = 6 cm OR According to the question, O is the centre of a circle of radius 5 cm. T is a point such that OT = 13 cm and OT intersects circle at E.
