Answer:

x = - 4 or x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given R is the midpoint of AM, then

RA = MR , substitute values

x² - 16x = 80 ( subtract 80 from both sides )

x² - 16x - 80 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 20)(x + 4) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 20 = 0 ⇒ x = 20

x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4

11. Kamala borrowed 26400 from a bank to buy a scooter at a rate of 15% per annum compounded yearly. What amount will she pay at
oee [108]
<h2>Answer </h2>

Amount (A) = P[1 + (r/100)]n

Principal (P) = ₹ 26400

Time period (n) = 2 years 4 months

Rate % (R) = 15% compounded annually

<h3>Steps </h3>

First, we will calculate Compound Interest (C.I) for the period of 2 years

A = P[1 + (r/100)]n

= 26400[1 + (15/100)]²

= 26400[(100/100) + (15/100)]²

= 26400 × 115/100 × 115/100

= 26400 × 23/20 × 23/20

= 26400 × 1.3225

= 34914

C.I. = A - P

= 34914 - 26400

= 8514

Now, we will find Simple Interest (S.I) for the period of 4 months

Principal for 4 months after C.I. for 2 years = ₹ 34,914

<h3>We know that ,</h3>

S.I = PRT/100

Here T = 4 months = 4/12 years = 1/3 years

S.I. for 4 months = (1/3) × 34914 × (15/100)

= (1/3) × 34914 × (3/20)

= 34914/20

= 1745.70

Total interest for 2 years 4 months = 8514 + 1745.70

= 10259.70

Total amount for 2 years 4 months = 26400 + 10259.70

= ₹ 36659.70

<h3>So , the correct answer is ₹ 36659.70 . </h3>
