प्रश्न
Had Aarush scored 8 more marks in a Mathematics test, out of 35 marks, 7 times these marks would have been 4 less than square of his actual marks. How many marks did he get in the test?
उत्तर
Let the actual marks be x.
According to the question,
7(x + 8) = x2 – 4
⇒ 7x + 56 = x2 – 4
⇒ x2 – 7x – 60 = 0
⇒ x2 – 12x + 5x – 60 = 0
⇒ x(x – 12) + 5(x – 12) = 0
⇒ (x – 12)(x + 5) = 0
⇒ x –12 = 0 or x + 5 = 0
⇒ x = 12 or x = –5
⇒ x = 12 ...[∵ Marks can't be negative]
Hence, Aarush scored 12 marks in Mathematics test.

Activity: Let the first even natural number be x
Therefore its consecutive even natural number will be = (______)
By the given condition,
x2 + (x + 2)2 = 244
x2 + x2 + 4x + 4 – (______) = 0
2x2 + 4x – 240 = 0
x2 + 2x – 120 = 0
x2 + (______) – (______) – 120 = 0
x(x + 12) – (______) (x + 12) = 0
(x + 12)(x – 10) = 0
x = (______)/x = 10
But natural number cannot be negative, x = – 12 is not possible.
Therefore first even natural number is x = 10.
Second even consecutive natural number = x + 2 = 10 + 2 = 12.
