1. For an intra-state transaction, a shopkeeper paid ₹ 1800 in the form of SGST. If the same transaction is held [1]
interstate, then the amount of IGST

a) ₹ 2700 b) ₹ 3600

c) ₹ 900 d) ₹ 1800
2. The tax (under GST) paid by the retailer to the State Government? [1]

a) ₹ 198 b) ₹ 99

c) ₹ 18 d) ₹ 9
3. A trader bought a number of articles for ₹1200. Ten were damaged and he sold each of the rest at ₹2 more than [1]
what he paid for it, thus cleaning a profit of ₹60 on the whole transaction. If x denotes the number of articles he
bought, then the value of x is

a) 60 b) 80

c) 110 d) 100

4. If the roots of the equation x2 + 2cx + ab = 0 are real and unequal, then the equation [1]

x2 - 2(a + b)x + a2 + b2 + 2c2 = 0 has

a) real root b) no real roots

c) real and equal d) equal root

5. If -4 is a root of the quadratic equation x2 + px - 4 = 0 and the quadratic equation x2 + px + k = 0 has equal roots, [3]
then find the value of k.
6. The difference of squares of two numbers is 180. The square of the smaller number is 8 times the larger number. [3]
Find the two numbers.
7. A trader buys x articles for a total cost of ₹ 600. [4]
i. Write down the cost of one article in terms of x. If the cost per article were ₹ 5 more, the number of articles
that can be bought for ₹ 600, would be four less.
ii. Write down the equation in x for the above situation and solve it to find x.

8. If x + 1 is a factor of 3x3 + kx2 + 7x + 4, then the value of k is [1]
