Let the marks scored by Ravita bemail x. According to the question 9 (x+10)=square of x 9×+90=×^2 ×^2-9×-90=0 (×+6)(×-15)=0 so ×=-6 or 15 X can't be negative so x=15 Ravita got 15 marks.

X=15. 10+15=25. Square of 26 is225. x2-9x-90. Factors x+6=0. x-15=0. Meaningless X=-6. So x=15. 10 added to 15 is 25 (15 square.is 225.)

Find three numbers in A.P. whose sum is 21 and their product is 231.
Let, three numbers are (a-d), a, (a+d) So, (a-d)+a+(a+d)=21 => a=7 Again, (7-d)×7×(7+d)=231 => (7-d)×(7+d)=231÷7 => 7^2 - d^2 = 33=> d^2 = 49 - 33=> d^2 = 16=> d = 4 So, the numbers are 7-4= 3, 7 and 7+4=11
