Henko is renting a car. The rental charge is $17.50 per day plus $0.16 per mile. Henko can spend at most $33 for the cost of the car rental. If Henko rents the car for one day, which of the following is one possible number of miles Henko can drive the rental car?
Step 2 : Recognize the variable
Number of miles ,is what the question is looking for.
Let number of miles be x
Step 3 : Decipher the relation
Total cost = no. of days rented × 17.50 + number of miles × 0.16
As henko rented the car for only one day
Total cost =17.50+x×0.16
Step 4 : Decide the inequality
Look for cues : Henko can spend at most 33$ for the car rent. Therefore, we get
3317.50+x×0.16
As, the question is looking for possible value of x, simplify the given inequality
96.87x
Only, option A satisfies the given inequality.

Question 34. If 5<p<2 and 7<q<9, then what is the range of p + q?
  1.    (-2, -7)
  2.    (2, 7)
  3.    (7, 2)
  4.    (-7, -2)
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> (2, 7)
:
B
5<p<2 and 7<q<9
Adding two inequalities with same natured inequalities will preserve the sign.
So adding the two inequalities:
5+7<p+q<2+9
2<p+q<7
Question 35. log2536= ?
  1.    2log256
  2.    12 log536
  3.    log56
  4.    All of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> All of these
:
D
Let y =log2536
=loge36loge25=loge62loge52=2loge62loge5=loge6loge5
= log56
log2536 can be written as,
log5262=2log526
or 12log562
Question 36. Select the solution set of 1<2x+310 from given options
  1.    {1,2,3}
  2.    {1,2,3,4}
  3.    {2,3,4}
  4.    {2,3,4,5}
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> {1,2,3}
:
A
1<2x+310
Subtract 3 from each sides
13<2x+33103
4<2x7
Divide by 2 each side
42<2x272
2<x3.5
From here we can say that x will that all the value between -2 to 3.5 [including 3.5 because sign].
Now lets look at options
A) {1,2,3}
B) {1,2,3,4} not possible because 4 is not in the range
C) {2,3,4} same reason
D) {2,3,4,5} Same reason
Question 37. If log4 5 = a and log5 6 = b, then log3 2 is equal to

Answer: Option D. -> 12ab−1
:
D
ab=log45.log56=log46=12log26
ab=12(1+log23)2ab1=log23
log32=12ab1

The correct answer is option A
Question 39. To pass a bill in the Lower house, the Indian government requires at least 23 majority in the house. There are 545 seats in the lower house. 248 members are in favor of passing a particular bill. Which of the following inequality represents the number of additional lower house members, p, who would support the bill, to achieve the required majority ? Round off your answer to nearest tenth digit.

Step 1 : Underline the key words.
To pass a bill in the Lower house, the Indian government requires at least 23 majority in the house. There are 545 seats in the lower house. 248 members are in favor of passing a particular bill. Which of the following inequality represents the number of additional lower house members, p, who would support the bill, to achieve the required majority.
Step 2 : Recognize the variable
Additional members required to support the bill
Step 3 : Decipher the relation
Given, there are 248 members already supporting the bill and we require 'p' members more.
Thus, 248 + p is required to pass the bill
Step 4 : decide the inequality
Look out for cues :at least 23 majority. We also, know there are 545 seats.
Therefore, 248+p(23) 545.
Since, the answer options are simplified. Simplify the given inequation :
p115.333
Hence, option D is correct.
Question 40. A worker uses a forklift to move boxes that weigh either 40 pounds or 65 pounds each. Let x be the number of 40-pound boxes and y be the number of 65-pound boxes. The forklift can carry up to either 45 boxes or a weight of 2,400 pounds. Which of the following systems of inequalities represents this relationship?
  1.    40x+65≤2400;x+y≤45
  2.    x40+y65≤2400;x+y≤45
  3.    40x+65≤45;x+y≤2400
  4.    40x+65≤2400;x+y≤2400
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 40x+65≤2400;x+y≤45
:
A
The first constraint is on the weight of the boxes. The total weight of the boxes cannot exceed 2400. Since there are x 40 pound boxes and y 65 pound boxes, total weight is (40x + 65 y). So,
40x+65y2400
The total number of boxes cannot exceed 45. Total number of boxes is (x + y). So,
x+y45
Hence, A is the correct choice.
