IBPS PO 2024 · Question 248 of 260

Directions (141-143): Solve the given equations and answer the question given below. I. 2x2 + 7x + 6 = 0 III. u2 + 7u + 6 = 0 II. 2y2 - 7y + 6 = 0 IV. v2 - 7v + 6 = 0 Note: (i) Sum of co-efficient of x2, x, y2 and y is 4. (ii) Roots of all the equations are non-imaginary. (iii) Both A & B (leading coefficients of equations I and II) are positive integers. If 7 is subtracted from the smaller root of equation II and the resultant is added to the value of A (leading coefficient of equation I), then find the square of the resultant number. Directions (144-148): Read the following bar graphs carefully and answer the questions given below. The bar graphs shows discount percentage given on marked price of four different items in 2021 and 2022. Note: (i) The marked price of an item can be same or different in both years.
