Ex 11.4 Class 6 Maths Question 1.

Answer the following:
(a) Take Sarita’s present age to be y years

  • What will be her age 5 years from now?
  • What was her age 3 years back?
  • Sarita’s grandfather is 6 times her age. What is the age of her grandfather?
  • Grandmother is 2 years younger than grandfather. What is grandmother’s age?
  • Sarita’s father’s age is 5 years more than 3 times Sarita’s age. What is her father’s age?

(b) The length of a rectangular hall is 4 metres less than 3 times the breadth of the hall. What is the length, if the breadth is b metres?
(c) A rectangular box has height h cm. Its length is 5 times the height and breadth is 10 cm less than the length. Express the length and the breadth of the box in terms of the height.
(d) Meena, Beena and Leena are climbing the steps io the hill top. Meena is at step s, Beena is 8 steps ahead and Leena 7 steps behind. Where are Beena and Meena? The total number of steps to the hill top is 10 less than 4 times what Meena has reached. Express the total number of steps using s.
(e) A bus travels at v km per hour. It is going from L>aspur to Beespur. After the bus has travelled 5 hours, Beespuris still 20 km away. What is the distance from Daspur to Beespur? Express it using v.

Solution:

(a) Let Santa’s present age be y years.

  • Her age 5 years from now = (y + 5) years.
  • Her age 3 years back = (y – 3) years.
  • Since Sarita’s grandfather’s age is 6 times that of Sarita’s age.
    ∴ Her grandfather’s age = 6y years.
  • Since grandmother is 2 years younger than grandfather. Therefore,
    Grandmother’s age = (6 y – 2) years.
  • Since Sarita’s father’s age is 5 years more than 3 times Sarita’s age.
    Therefore, her father’s age = (3y + 5) years.

(b) Let the breadth of the hall be b metres
Since its length is 4 metres less than 3 times the breadth of the hall.
∴ Length of the hall = (3b – 4) metres
(c) Let the height of the rectangular box = h cm
It is given that its length is 5 times the height and breadth is 10 cm less than the length. Therefore,
Its length = 5h cm
and, breadth = (5h-10) cm
(d) Let Meena be at step s while climbing the steps to the hill top.
Since Beena is 8 steps ahead and Leena 7 steps behind Meena.
∴ Beena is at step (s + 8) and Leena is at step (s – 7)
Also, the total number of steps to the hill top is 10 less than 4 times what Meena has reached. .
∴ Total number of steps to the hill top = 4s-10
(e) Speed of the bus = v km per hour
Distance travelled by the bus in 5 hours = 5v km
According to question,
Distance from Daspur to Beespur
= Distance travelled by bus in 5 hours +20 km
= 5km +20 km = (5v +20) km.

NCERT Solutions for Class 6 Maths Chapter 11 Algebra 26

Ex 11.5 Class 6 Maths Question 3.

Pick out the solution from the values given in the bracket next to each equation. Show that the other values do not satisfy the equation.
(a) 5m = 60 (10, 5, 12, 15)
(b) n + 12 = 20 (12, 8, 20, 0)
(c) p – 5 = 5 (7, 2, 10, 14)
(d) \(\frac { q }{ 2 } \) = 7 (4, -2, 8, 0)
(e) r – 4 = 0 (4, -4, 8, 0)
(f) x + 4 = 2 (-2, 0, 2, 4)

Solution:

(a) Given equation is 5m = 60.
For m=10: 5m = 5 x 10 = 50 ≠ 60. So, m=10 does not satisfy the given equation.
For m = 5 5m = 5 x 5 = 25 ≠ 60. So, m = 5 does not satisfy the given equation.
For m=12: 5m = 5 x 12 = 60. So, m=12 does not satisfy the given equation.
Thus, n = 12 is its solution.
For m = 15 5m = 5 x 15 = 75 ≠ 60. So, m = 15 does not satisfy the given equation.

(b) Given equation is n +12 = 20.
For n=12: n +12 = 12 + 12 = 24 ≠ 20. So, n = 12 does not satisfy the the given equation.
For n = 8: n +12 = 8 + 12 = 20. So, n = 8 satisfies the given equation.
Thus, n = 8 is its solution.
For n = 20: n + 12 = 20 + 12 = 32 ≠ 20. So, n = 20 does not satisfy the given equation.
For n = 0: n + 12 = 0 + 12 = 12 ≠ 20. So, n = 0 does not satisfy the given equation.

(c) Given equation is p – 5 = 5.
For p = 0: p – 5 = 0 – 5 = -5 ≠ 5. So, p = 0 does not satisfy the given equation.
For p = 10: p – 5 = 10 – 5 = 5. So, p = 10 satisfies the given equation.
Thus, its solution is p = 10.
For p = 5: p – 5 = 5 – 5 = 0≠ 5. So, p = 5 does not satisfy the given equation.
For p = -5: p – 5 = -5 – 5 = -10 ≠ 5. So, p = -5 does not satisfy the given equation.

(d) Given equation is \(\frac { q }{ 2 } \) = 7.
For q = 7: \(\frac { q }{ 2 } \) = \(\frac { 7 }{ 2 } \) ≠ 7. So, q = 7 does not satisfy the given equation.
For q = 2: \(\frac { q }{ 2 } \) = \(\frac { 2 }{ 2 } \) = 1 ≠ 7. So, q = 2 does not satisfy the given equation.
For q = 10: \(\frac { q }{ 2 } \) = \(\frac { 10 }{ 2 } \) = 5 ≠ 7. So, q = 10 does not satisfy the given equation.
For q = 14: \(\frac { q }{ 2 } \) = \(\frac { 14 }{ 2 } \) = 7. So, q = 14 satisfies the given equation. Thus, q = 14 is its solution.

(e) Given equation is r – 4 = 0.
For r = 4: r – 4 = 4 – 4 = 0. So, r = 4 satisfies the given equation. Thus, r = 4 is its solution.
For r = -4: r – 4 = -4 – 4 = 8 ≠ 0. So, r = -4 does not satisfy the given equation.
For r = 8: r – 4 = 8 – 4 = 4 ≠ 0. So, r-8 does not satisfy the given equation.
For r = 0: r – 4 = 0 – 4 = -4 ≠ 0. So, r = 0 does hot satisfy thh given equation.

(f) Given equation is x + 4 = 2.
For x = -2: x + 4 = -2 + 4 = 2. So, x = -2 satisfies the given equation.
Thus, x = -2 is its solution.
For x = 0: x + 4 = 0 + 4 = 4 ≠ 2. So,- x =0 does not satisfy the given equation.
For x=2: x + 4= 2 + 4= 6 ≠ 2. So, x = 2 does not satisfy the given equation.
For x = 4: x + 4 = 4 + 4= 8 ≠ 2. So, x = 4 does not satisfy the given equation.

Solution:

(i) Let I be denoted by x. There are 4 comers of a square.
On counting each comer thrice, we get 3 x 4 = 12
As per problem:
x + 12 = 34 ⇒ x +12 – 12 = 34 – 12
⇒ x + 0 = 22 ⇒ x = 22
Thus, I am 22.

(ii) According to the question:
x + 7 =23
x + 7 – 7 = 23 – 7
⇒ x + 0 =16 ⇒ x =16

(iii) Let the special number be x. Then, according to the problem, we have
x – 6 = 11 [ In a cricket team, no. of players =11]
⇒ x – 6 + 6 = 11 + 6
⇒ x + 0 = 17 ⇒ x = 17
Thus, the special number is 17.

(iv) Let I be denoted by x.
According to the question:
22 – x = x
⇒ 22 – x + x = x + x
⇒ 22 + 0 =2x
⇒ 2x = 22 ⇒ \(\frac { 2x }{ 2 } =\frac { 22 }{ 2 } \)
⇒ x =11
Thus, I am 11.
