There are 202 lights which are functional and each is controlled by a separate On/Off switch. Two children A and B start playing with the switches. A starts by pressing every third switch till he reaches the end. B, thereafter, presses every fifth switch till he too reaches the end. If all switches were in Off position at the beggining, How many lights are switched On by the end of this operation? Choose one:
A) 93 B) 94 C) 92 D) 96 E) 95

Solution: Editing my solution:   Number of switches = 202   Number of switches turned on by A: 3, 6, ... 201 = 67   Number of switches turned on by B: 5, 10, ....200 = 40   Few switches are turned on by A and later turned off by B: LCM(3,5) = 15x = 15, 30,....90 = 6.   Subtract the above 6 switches from both A and B as they are turned off.   Number of switches that are turned on = (67- 6) + (40 - 6)= 
(67- 6) + (40 - 6) = 95

Each week, Harry is paid X dollars per hour for the first 30 hours and 1.5X dollars for each additional hour worked that week. Each week, James is paid X dollars per hour for the first 40 hours and 2X dollars for each additional hour worked that week. Last week James worked a total of 50 hours. If Harry and James were paid the same amount last week, how many hours did Harry work last week?  Options.
A) 35  B) 36  C) 37  D) 38  E) 50

Solution: Amount earned by James = 40*x + 10*2x =60x   Therefore, Amount earned by James = 60x   But we know the amount Harry earned assuming working y hours (y>30) is 30*x + (y-30)*1.5x   [[We know y>30 because in 30h the most Harry could earn is 30x, but he has earned 60x]]   So x*(1.5y -45 +30) = 60x   Or x*(1.5y - 15) = 60x   So 1.5y - 15 = 60   So 1.5y = 75   So y = 50   Answer is 50

Bob invested one half of his savings in a bond that paid simple interest for 2 years and received $500 as interest. He invested the remaining in a bond that paid compound interest (compounded annually) for the same 2 years at the same rate of interest and received $605 as interest. What was the annual rate of interest?
Pick
A) 5%  B) 10%  C) 12%  D) 15%  E) 42%

Solution: First divide $500/2years to get 250$/yr non-compounding interest.   Next, subtract from the total compound after 2 years to see the interest gained in the second year. This can be done because the same amount has been invested in both accounts and the interest gained for the first year will be the same. So, $605-$250= $355.   To find the difference in interest gained, $355-$250= $105 increase in interest after the first year through compounding.   From this information we can set up the equation $250 * X% = $105.=42% giving us answer choice 42%.

If x3−6x2+11x−6=0x3−6x2+11x−6=0 and x3+3x2−6x−8=0x3+3x2−6x−8=0 have one common root between them. What is the value of that root?
Choose the correct choice
A) 3	B) 2	C) 6	D) 9	E) 1

Solution: There are two equations,   x3−6x2+11x−6=0x3−6x2+11x−6=0 - - - (i)   x3+3x2−6x−8=0x3+3x2−6x−8=0 - - - (ii)   So both (i) and (ii) have one root in common and we know that at the root the value of both the equations is 0. Suppose that common root is x then,   x3−6x2+11x−6x3−6x2+11x−6 = x3+3x2−6x−8x3+3x2−6x−8 ⇒⇒ 9x2−17x−2=09x2−17x−2=0   ⇒⇒ (x - 2)(9x + 1) = 0 or x = 2 or -1/9. As by applying the Descartes rule in (i) we can see it cannot have any negative root so x = 2.   Why are we getting two values x = 2 and x = -1/9?   x = 2 and x = -1/9 are the pint of intersections of these two equations out of which x = 2 is the point of intersection at x axis therefore this point (x = 2) is the common root as well.
