  1. Two sets \(P\) and \(Q\) are shown in the adjoining Venn diagram.
    1. Define subset.[1]
    2. Write an improper subset of set \(P\).[1]
    3. If two elements \(a\) and \(e\) are removed from set \(P\), then what type of sets are \(P\) and \(Q\)? Write with reason.[1]
    1. Let A and B are two sets, then \(A\) is a subset of \(B\) if every element of \(A\) is also an element of \(B\). This is denoted as \(A \subseteq B\).
    2. From the Venn diagram, \(P = \{b, c, d, a, e\}\).
      Now, the improper subset of \(P\) is the set \(P=\{a, b, c, d, e\}\) itself.
    3. If elements \(a\) and \(e\) are removed from set \(P\), then
      New \(P = \{b, c, d\}\)
      New \(Q = \{a, e, i, o, u\}\) (unchanged)
      Now, \(P \cap Q = \emptyset\) because they share no common elements.
  2. Sundar sold a piano of marked price Rs 20000 at \(15\%\) discount.
  3. 🎹🎹♪♫~
    1. How much is the discount amount of the article whose marked price is \(MP\) and discount percentage is \(D\%\)?[1]
    2. Find the selling price of the piano.[1]
    3. If the piano is sold at \(20\%\) loss, find the cost price.[2]
    4. If piano was sold at Rs. 20,825, then what would be the profit or loss? Find in percentage.[2]
    1. Discount amount for an article with marked price \(MP\) and discount rate \(D\%\):
      Discount Amount = \( \dfrac{D}{100} \times MP \)
    2. Selling price of the piano:
      Marked Price (MP) = Rs. \(20,000\)
      Discount = \(15\%\)
      Thus
      SP=85% of MP
      orSP= \( \dfrac{85}{100} \times 20,000 = 17,000\)
      So, the selling price is Rs. \(17,000\).
    3. Cost price if sold at \(20\%\) loss.
      Selling Price (SP) = Rs. \(17,000\)
      Loss = \(20\%\)
      Thus
      SP=80% of CP
      or\(17,000 = \dfrac{80}{100} \times \text{CP}\)
      or\(\text{CP} = \dfrac{17,000 \times 100}{80} = \dfrac{1,700,000}{80} = 21,250\)
      So, the cost price was Rs. \(21,250\).
    4. Profit or loss percent if SP was Rs. 20,825
      Cost Price = Rs. \(21,250\)
      Selling Price = Rs. \(20,825\)
      Since SP < CP, there is a loss.
      Loss = \(21,250 - 20,825= 425\)
      Now
      Loss Percent = \( \dfrac{425}{21,250} \times 100\% = 2\% \)
      So, Sundar would have incurred a loss of 2%.
  4. The interest on Rs 5,040 in 5 years is Rs 2,520.
    1. Write the formula to find the simple interest if the amount (A) and principal (P) are given.[1]
    2. Find the rate of interest.[2]
    3. In how many years will the principal and interest be equal? Write with reason.[1]
    1. Formula for Simple Interest:
      Simple Interest (I) = Amount (A) - Principal (P)
    2. Rate of interest:
      Principal (P) = Rs. 5,040
      Time (T) = 5 years
      Interest (I) = Rs. 2,520
      We know,
      Rate (R) = \( \dfrac{I \times 100}{P \times T} = \dfrac{2,520 \times 100}{5,040 \times 5} = 10\% \)
      So, the rate of interest is 10% per annum.
    3. Time for principal and interest to be equal:
      When Principal (P) and Interest (I) are equal, \( I = P \).
      We know, \( T = \dfrac{I \times 100}{P \times R} \).
      Since \( I = P \), then \( T = \dfrac{100}{R} = \dfrac{100}{10} = 10 \) years.
      Reason: Since the interest rate is 10% per year, it takes 10 years for the total interest to reach 100% of the principal (i.e., to become equal to the principal).
  5. There are 2075 lemon plants in Numa's garden.
    1. Write the number of plants in scientific notation.[1]
    2. If the cost of one plant was \(\text{Rs.}\,70\), then find the total cost.[1]
    3. Express the number of plants in the quinary number system.[2]
  6. As shown in the figure, inside a circular ground having diameter 42 m, a rectangular pond having length 20 m and breadth 10 m is made.
    1. Write the formula to calculate the area of the pond. [1]
    2. What is the area of the circular ground? Find it. [1]
    3. Find the area of the remaining ground excluding the pond. [2]
    4. How much will it cost to plant dubo at the rate of Rs 25 per \(m^2\) in the remaining part of the ground? [1]
    1. Area of the pond formula
      We know that,
      Since the pond is rectangular, Area (\( A \)) = \( l \times b \)
    2. Area of the circular ground
      Given that,
      Diameter (\( d \)) = 42 m
      Radius (\( r \)) = \( \frac{42}{2} = 21 \) m
      Now using the formula, we get
      Area of ground (\( A_g \)) = \( \pi r^2 = \frac{22}{7} \times (21)^2 = 1386 \) m²
    3. Area of the remaining ground
      First, calculating the area of the rectangular pond,
      Length (\( l \)) = 20 m and Breadth (\( b \)) = 10 m
      Area of pond (\( A_p \)) = \( 20 \times 10 = 200 \) m²
      Now to find the area excluding the pond,
      Remaining Area = \( A_g - A_p = 1386 - 200 = 1186 \) m²
    4. Cost of planting grass (dubo)
      We know that,
      Remaining area = 1186 m²
      According to the question, the rate is Rs 25 per \(m^2\), so
      Total Cost = \( 1186 \times 25 = \) Rs 29,650
    1. Write the expanded form of \(x^2 - y^2\).[1]
    2. Simplify: \(\left(\dfrac{x^a}{x^b}\right)^{a+b} \times \left(\dfrac{x^b}{x^c}\right)^{b+c} \times \left(\dfrac{x^c}{x^a}\right)^{c+a}\)[2]
