Zarrolou · Answer

R = titles of Robert
D = titles of David
 3*(R-15)=D+15 
 D-15=R+15

You solve this and obtain  R=45  and  D=75 , it's not B and here we can see why:

b. R=60  so  3*(60-15)=D+15   D=120 , then the second equation doesn't "work"

Zarrolou · Answer

Salary = exp + savings \frac{eH+sH}{eK+sK}=\frac{9}{7} saving are 200$ \frac{eH+200}{eK+200}=\frac{9}{7} \frac{eH}{eK}=\frac{4}{3} 7(eH+200)=9(eK+200) 7eH-9eK=400 3eH=4eK do some math...

eH=1600 and eK=1200 SalaryKime = 1200+200 = 1400 $ B and not C...

Zarrolou · Answer

M = rate of work of men
b = rate of work of boys

(4M+6B)*20 days= 1 job 
 (3M+4B)*28 = 1 job

80M+120B=1 
 84M+112B=1  so dome math...

M=\frac{1}{140} 
 B=\frac{1}{280}  those are the rate of work (each hour).

7 boys = 7*\frac{1}{128}=\frac{7}{128}  each hour
To complete one job 1  job = time*\frac{7}{280}  now this time is  \frac{280}{7}  hour that is none of your answers
If the question were about men
 7 men = 7*\frac{1}{140}=\frac{7}{140} 
To complete one job 1  job = time*\frac{7}{140}  now this time is  \frac{140}{7}  = 20 A

daviesj · Answer

IMO C
lets put that in equation.
No. of students in one row=x
No. of rows=y
Total students=xy.
 1st equation: 
(x+1)(y-2)=xy i.e. xy-2x+y-2 =xy i.e. -2x+y=2
 2nd Equation 
(x-1)(y+3)=xy i.e. xy+3x-y-3 =xy i.e. 3x-y=3

adding 1st and second equation we get x=5
putting x=5 in any of the equation we get y=12

so total number of Students should be xy = 5*12 = 60

KarishmaB · Answer

Think of the students standing in a matrix of rows and columns.

There are r rows and c columns. So there are a total of rc students.

Algebra approach:

Now if there is 1 student extra in each row i.e. there is one column extra, no of rows will be r-2 rows.
If there is 1 student less in each row, i.e. there is one column less, no of rows will be r+3 rows.

(r - 2)(c + 1) = rc
(r + 3)(c - 1) = rc

r - 2c = 2
-r + 3c = 3

c = 5
r = 12

Total number of students = 5*12 = 60

KarishmaB · Answer

M = rate of work of each man, B - rate of work of each boy
4M + 6B = 1/20
3M + 4B = 1/28

Solve simultaneously. We need to get rid of B so multiply first equation by 2 and the second one by 3

8M + 12B = 1/10
9M + 12B = 3/28

Subtract the equations to get:
M = 2/280 = 1/140 = Rate of work of one man

Rate of work of 7 Men = 7/140 = 1/20
Time taken = 1/Rate of work = 20 days
