The number of positive roots in
First, we write the polynomial in its standard form as f(x) = x6 + 3x5 - 7x4 + 13 +0x2 - 2x -5
Signs of the terms
Since, there are three changes of sign, from + to -, from – to + and from + to –, By Descartes’s rule of sign, the number of positive roots is three or less than by an even. So, number of positive roots are 3 or 1.
A villager buys a goat and a sheep together for Rs 14,250. He sold the sheep at a profit of 10% and the goat at a loss of 20%. If he sold both the animals atthe same price, then what was the cost price of the cheaper animal?
Given,
110% of CP of Sheep = 80% of CP of Goat
CP of Sheep : CP of Goat = 8 : 11
Hence, the cost price of the sheep = (8/19) × 14250 = Rs 6000
A man donates 30% of this wealth to charity. 30% and 25% of the remaining wealth to his wife and son respectively. The rest he divides equally between his three daughters. One of his daughter gets Rs 42 lakh as her share. What was the man’s wealth (in Lakhs)?
Let the total wealth be 1000 unit
Then remaining amount after donating in charity=1000 - 30% of 1000 = 700 Unit
Amount given to wife and son = 55% of 700 = 385 Unit
Remaining amount= 315 Unit
This amount is equally distributed between three daughter
So, each daughter get 315/ 3=105 Unit
Now According to Question,
105 = 42 Lakh
So, man total wealth =400 lakh

The ratio of heights of two towers stand at P and Q respectively is √3:2. The angle of elevation of a point O in the line joining P and Q to the top of bigger tower to that of smaller tower is 5:2. If difference between the elevations is 45°, the ratio of the distances of O from P to Q is:
Let the heights of towers are √3h and 2h, then their respective angle of elevation from O are 5x and 2x. Now,
