∴ L.H.S ≠ R.H.S.

(iii) a – b = a + b, where a = (-75), b = (-20)

Ans: L.H.S. = a – (-b)

= a + b

= (75) + (-20)

= -75 – 20 = -(75 + 20) = -95

R.H.S. = a + b = (-75) + (-20)

= – (75 + 20) = – 95

∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.

5. In a class test of a school 20 questions were given. For each correct answer 5 marks is awarded and for each wrong answer (- 2) is awarded.

(i) A student answered all the questions. But her 10 answers were correct. How much makes did she score?

Ans: A student answered all the questions, but her 10 answers were correct. 

Marks for 10 correct answer = 10 × 5 = 50 

and Marks for 10 incorrect answers

= 10(-2)

= -20

∴ She scored = (50 – 20) = 30

(ii) Other student could answer only 5 answers correctly. What was the score by the student?

Ans: Other student could answer only 5 answers correctly. 

∴ Marks scored for 5 correct answers = 5 × 5

= 25 and marks scored for 15 incorrect answer

= 15(-2)

= – 30. 

The score by the student = (-30 + 25) = – 5 marks.

6. In an examination for each correct answer 5 marks is awareded and for each wrong answer (-2) is awarded.

(i) Sumon answered all the questions. But her 16 answers were correct and obtained 64.

Ans: Sumon answered all the questions, but her 16 answers were correct and obtained 64.

Marks scored for 16 correct answers = 16 × 5 = 80

∴ Marks scored for incorrect answers = (80 – 64) = 16

For each wrong answer (-2) is awarded

∴ Number of questions answered incorrect = 16/2 = 8

(ii) Jaya answered all the questions. But she could answer only 5 questions correctly and obtained (-6). How many questions were answered incorrectly by them?

Ans: Jaya answered all the questions. 

Only 5 questions correctly and obtained (-6).

∴ Marks scored for correct answers = 6 × 5 = 30 

For (-6) marks, number of incorrect answers = 3

∴ 30/2 = 15 and 6/2 = 3 

∴ Jaya answered incorrectly = (15 + 3) = 18 questions.

7. A rubber company makes a profit of Rs. 15 per bag of rubber. Loss incured on every waste bag of rubber is of Rs. 8.

(i) The Company sold 1500 bags of good rubber and 500 bags of waste rubber. How much profit or loss incurred by the company?

Ans: Profit on per bag of rubber = Rs. 15.00 

Profit for 1500 bags of rubber

= Rs. (1500 × 15) 

= Rs. 22500 

Loss of 500 bags of waste rubber 

= Rs. (500 × 8) 

= Rs. 4000 

∴ Profit Rs. (22, 500 – 4,000) 

= Rs. 18,500

(ii) If the company sold 750 bags of waste rubber then how many bags of good rubber are to be sold so that company incured neither profit nor loss?

Ans: Loss for 750 bags of waste rubber

 = Rs. (750 × 8)

= Rs. 6,000 

∴ Number of bags of good rubber are to be sold so that company incurred neither profit nor loss 

= (6,000 ÷ 15)

= 400
