m+s=28 (m+3x)(s-4)=180 Forming the quadratic equation in s and solving we get s=16(->m=12) or s=19(->m=9).

Let the no. of marks obtained in Maths = x & no. of marks obtained in Science = 28-x It is given that (x+3)(28-x-4) = 180 (x+3)(24-x)=180 24x-x2+72-3x=180 x2-21x+108 = 0 x2-12x-9x+108=0 x(x-12)-9(x-12)=0 (x-9)(x-12)=0 therefore answer is x =9 or 12 For x = 9 Marks obtained in Maths = 9 Marks...
