Ada and Paul received their scores on three tests. On the first test, Ada's score was 4 points higher than Paul's score. On the second test, Ada's score was 4 points higher than Paul's score. If Paul's average (arithmetic mean) score on the three tests was 3 points higher than Ada's average score on the three tests, then Paul's score on the third test was how many points higher than Ada's score?  Choices.
A) 9	B) 14	C) 17	D) 23	E) 25

Solution: My take is Option D (23)   I followed a simple approach (explained below):   Test 1: Ada's score = Paul's score + 10   Test 2: Ada's score = Paul's score + 4   Avg. of Paul's score = 3 points higher than Avg. of Ada's score   This implies that : Sum of Paul's score [3 Tests] = 9 points higher than Sum of Ada's score [3 Tests] (9 points higher since 3 points were given in terms of average of 3 scores)   So, Paul needs to score 17 points higher than Ada in Test 3, since Paul needs to compensate for the lower score in test 1 and Test 2 ( 17 = 4 + 4 + 9)   17

Shopkeeper rise price by 36% and gives successive discount of 10% and 15%. What is overall % gain or loss?  Choose the correct choice from the following answers
A) 5.04% B) 4.04% C) 3.04% D) 6.04% E) 7.04%

Solution: Let d initial price be 100   36% rise   now price = 136/100*100= 
136/100*100 = 136
136   10% discount   Then price= 136 * 90/100= 
136 * 90/100 = 612/5 = around 122.4
122.4   15 % discount   Then price= 122.4 * 85/100= 
122.4 * 85/100 = 104.04
104.04   So Gain= 104.04 - 100= 
104.04 - 100 = 4.04
4.04   Gain %= Gain * 100 /CP   ==> 4.04 * 100 /100= 
4.04 * 100 /100 = 4.04

A) 60 years
B) 33
C) 77
D) 66
E) 101

Solution: Explanation:   Let Neha's present age be 'x' years.   Her age 12 years ago = (x – 12) years   Therefore, her mother's age 12 years ago = 4(x – 12)   Her mother's present age = 4x – 48 + 12 = 4x – 36   Neha's age after 12 years = x + 12   Her mother's age after 12 years = 4x – 36 + 12 = 4x – 24   4x – 24 = 2(x + 12)   4x – 2x = 24 + 24   x = 24   Therefore, Neha's present age = 24   Her mother's present age = 4x – 36 = 4(24) – 36 = 60 years   60 yearsNSWER: 60 years

Answer: D
If a function f is defined by f(x)= 3/(x-1) for all non zero numbers x. If f(a) = 3 and f(ab) = 9 then b= ?  Pick
A) 1/3  B) 1/2  C) -1/2  D) -1/3  E) -2

Solution: Given that f(x) = 3/(x-1) and f(a) = 3, then f(a) =3/(x-1)=3 ===> x-1=1 ==> x =2, then backsolve using the answer choices:   f(ab) = f(2b) = 3/(2b-1)   1/3) 1/3 ===> f(2*1/3) = f(2/3) = 3/((2*2/3)-1)= 
3/((2*2/3)-1) = 9
9 WINS   B) 1/2===> f((2*1/2) = f(1) = 3/1-1 = undefined   C) -1/2 ===> f(2*-1/2) = f(-1) = 3/1+1 = 3/2   D) -1/3 ===> f(2*-1/3) = f(-2/3) = 3/(2*-2/3 -1) = -9/7   E) -2 ===> f(2*-2) = f(-4) = 3/(2*-4 -1) = -1/3   1/3nswer: 1/3

A small pool filled only with water will require an additional 400 gallons of water in order to be filled to 80% of its capacity. If pumping in these additional 400 gallons of water will increase the amount of water in the pool by 30%, what is the total capacity of the pool in gallons?	Answers:
A) 1000  B) 1250  C) 1300  D) 1600  E) 1750

Solution: Since pumping in additional 400 gallons of water will increase the amount of water in the pool by 30%, then initially the pool is filled with 1,000 gallons of water.   So, we have that 1,000 + 400 = 0.8*{total} --> {total} = 1,750.   Answer: 1750.
Answer: E
A pack of 52 playing cards, 2cards are drawn together at random. Find the probability of both thecards being queen? Choose the correct choice from the following
A) 2/113 B) 2/115 C) 1/221 D) 2/215 E) 1/265

Solution: Two cards can be drawn from a pack of 52 playing cards in 52C2 ways. i,e., 52 x 51 / 2 = 1326 ways. The event that two kings appear in a single drawn of cards is 4C2 ways, i.e 6 ways.   ∴ The probability that the two cards drawn from a pack of 52 cards are kings = 6/1326 = 1/221   1/221

Solution: Let the CP of each pen be Rs. 1.   CP of 99 pens = Rs. 99   Profit = Cost of 33 pens   = Rs. 33   Profit% = 66/99 * 100   = 66 2/3%   Answer: 66 2/3%
Answer: D
In the xy-plane, line q passes through point (3,-2) and intersect perpendicularly with line n that passes through points (0,3) and (3,5). What is the equation of line q?	Answers:
A) 3x+2y-5=0	B) 3x+2y+5=0	C) 2x-3y-12=0	D) 2x+3y=0	E) 4x+3y-6=0

Solution: If two lines intersect perpendicularly, we get -1 when we multiply two slopes together. The slope of a line n is (5-3)/(3-0)=2/3. Hence, the slope of a line q should be -3/2. Since it crosses (3,-2), if we calculate we get 3x+2y=5. Hence, the correct answer is 3x+2y-53 +2= 
3 +2 = 5
5. Hence, the correct answer is 3x+2y-5=0.  3 +2 -5= 
  3 +2 -5 = 0
0.
Answer: A
A farmer has an apple orchard consisting of Fuji and Gala apple trees. Due to high winds this year 10% of his trees cross pollinated. The number of his trees that are pure Fuji plus the cross-pollinated ones totals 221, while 3/4 of all his trees are pure Fuji. How many of his trees are pure Gala? Choose the correct option:  A) 22  B) 33  C) 39  D) 77  E) 88

Solution: Let f = pure fuji , g = pure gala and c - cross pollinated.   c = 10% of x where x is total trees.   c = .1x   also 3x/4 = f and c+f = 221 => .1x + 3/4x = 221 => x = 260   260 - 221 = pure gala = 39.   Answer 39

8 identical machines, working alone and at their constant rates, take 6 hours to complete a job lot. How long would it take for 12 such machines to perform the same job?  Choose the correct choice
A) 6 hours B) 8.75 hours C) 12 hours D) 4 hours E) 16 hours

Solution: Let each machine do 1 unit of work for 1 hour   8 machines --> 8 units of work in 1 hour   For 6 hours = 8*6= 
8*6 = 48
48 Units of total work is done.   Now this 48 Units of total work must be done by 3 machines   12 units of work(12 machines) ---> 1 hour   for 48 Units of work   12*4 ---> 1*4 hours   4 hours 4 hours
