Question : If $\frac{1}{x^{2}}+x^{2}$ represents the radius of circle $P$ and $\frac{1}{x}+x=17$, which of the following best approximates the circumference of circle $P$? 

Option 1: $287\pi$

Option 2: $547\pi$

Option 3: $574\pi$

Option 4: $278\pi$

Team Careers360 19th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $574\pi$


Solution : Given: $\frac{1}{x}+x=17$
Squaring both sides, we have,
⇒ $(\frac{1}{x}+x)^{2}=17^{2}$
⇒ $\frac{1}{x^{2}}+x^{2}+2=289$
⇒ $\frac{1}{x^{2}}+x^{2}=287$
Circumference of circle $P$ = $2\pi r$
= $2×\pi ×287$
= $574\pi $
Hence, the correct answer is $574\pi $.

Question : If $\frac{3x-1}{x}+\frac{5y-1}{y}+\frac{7z-1}{z}=0$, what is the value of $\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}+\frac{1}{z}?$

Option 1: –3

Option 2: 0

Option 3: 15

Option 4: 21

Team Careers360 23rd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 15


Solution : Given:
$\frac{3x-1}{x}+\frac{5y-1}{y}+\frac{7z-1}{z}=0$
⇒$3-\frac{1}{x}+5-\frac{1}{y}+7-\frac{1}{z}=0$
⇒$\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{y}+\frac{1}{z}= 3+5+7=15$
Hence, the correct answer is 15.
