Let's assume the marks obtained by Ravita are x. According to the statement, 9(x+10) = x^2 9x +90 = x^2 x^2-9x-90 = 0 which is in the form of ax^2+bx+c=0 x=(-b±?(b^2-4ac))/2a, x=9±?(81+360))/2, x=(9+21)/2, x= 15 if x = (9-21)/2, x= -6 Assuming the positive narks scored, she scored 15 marks.

If m and n are odd positive integers, then m2 + n2 is even, but not divisible by 4. Justify.
Since m is odd positive integer then we can write m=2a+1 and n=2b+1, such that a,b >0 m2+n2=(2a+1)^2+(2b+1)^2 = 4a^2+1+4a+4b^2+1+4b = 4a^2+4b^2+4a+4b+2 = 2(2a^2+2b^2+2a+2b+1) Above eqn is divisible by 2 but not divisible by 4.
