(i)Marks given for one correct answer = 3 

Marks given for 12 correct answers = 3 x 12 = 36 Radhika scored 20 marks. 

Therefore, Marks obtained for incorrect answers = 20 – 36 = – 16 

Now, marks given for one incorrect answer = –2 

Therefore, number of incorrect answers = (-16)  /(-2) = 8

Thus, Radhika has attempted 8 incorrect questions.

(ii) Marks given for seven correct answers = 3 x 7 = 21 Mohini scores = –5

Marks obtained for incorrect answers =  –5 – 21 = – 26 Now, marks given for one incorrect answer = –2 

Therefore, number of incorrect answers = (-26)/(-2) = 13

13 Thus, Mohini has attempted 13 incorrect questions.

Had Ajita scored 10 more marks in her mathematics test out of 30 marks, 9 times these marks would have been the square of her actual marks.

Solution : Let her actual marks be x Therefore, 9 (x +10) = x2 i.e., x2 – 9x – 90 = 0 i.e., x2 – 15x + 6x – 90 = 0 i.e., x(x...
