CAT Sample Papers: CAT questions with answers and Solutions
Part-A (Quantitative Aptitude - CAT Sample Paper Solution)
Ans 1: (d)
Let roots be α and β;
Sum of roots; α + β = -a
Product of roots; αβ = b
Also, α – β = 4
(α + β)2 = (α – β)2 + 4αβ
So, (-a)2 = 42 + 4b
⇒ a2 = 42 + 4b
⇒ a2 = 4(4 + b)
Ans 2: (b)
Sum of roots = c2 (Using sum of roots = -b/a)
Product of roots = 3(2c - 1)
According to question
c2 = 1/3 (3(2c - 1)) = 2c - 1
⇒ c2 - 2c + 1 = 0
⇒ (c -1)2 = 0
⇒ c = 1
Ans 3: 7
Let the fraction be ‘x’
It's reciprocal will be 1/x
So, x – 1/x = 48/7
⇒ x2 – 1 = 48x/7
⇒ 7x2 – 48x – 7 = 0
⇒ 7x2 – 49x + x – 7 = 0
⇒ 7x (x – 7) + (x – 7) = 0
⇒ (x – 7) (7x + 1) = 0
⇒ x = 7 or x = -1/7
So, x = 7 will be the answer.
Ans 4: (a)
3x = 1+ 7y
For integral solutions, (1 +7y) should be a multiple of 3.
y= 2, x = 5
y = 5, x = 12
y = 11, x = 26
y = 14, x = 33
y = 17, x = 40
y = 20, x = 47
y = 23, x = 54, where x is greater than 50. So the total solutions are 6.
Ans 5: (d)
Let correct questions be x, wrong questions are y and non-attempted are z.
So, x + y + z = 62
and 3x -y + 0 = 50 (according to question)
The minimum value of x for which 3x – y = 50 is 17.
The maximum value of x is when z = 0.
If z = 0, x + y = 62 or y = 62 – x
So, 3x – (62 – x) = 50
So, x = 28.
Therefore, No. of valid values for x will be from 17 to 28 = 12.
Ans 6: (b)
Profit = 10(7 +8y/5) – 6y2
To find the minimum profit
10(7 +8y/5) – 6y2 ≥ 0
Or, 70 + 16y – 6y2 ≥ 0
Or, 6y2 – 16y -70 ≤ 0
On solving, we get
Or, y ≥ 5 or y ≤ -7/3
So, the minimum value of y is 5.
Ans 7: (b)
Factor of x2 – 2x + 3 are (x-3) and (x + 1)
So, x =3 and x = -1 will also satisfy x4 – ax2 + b = 0
At x = 3, 34 – a x 32 + b = 0 ⇒ 81 - 9a + b = 0
At x = -1, (-1) 4-a (-1) 2+b = 0 ⇒ 1 – a + b = 0
On solving the above equations, a = 10, b = 9.
Ans 8: (c)
Profit = 720 – CP
Loss = CP – 540
According to the conditions;
Loss = 2 x Profit
CP – 540 = 2 (720 – CP)
So, CP = Rs 660.
Part-B (LRDI - CAT Sample Paper Solution)
Ans 1: (b)
Except for boundary cubes, all other cubes will satisfy this condition.
Total cubes will be 80 and boundary cubes will be 32 so the rest cubes will be 80 – 32 = 48.
Ans 2: (a)
Since the block is divided into 10 equal cubes of side 1 cm (from 10 cm side), and 8 equal cubes of side 1 cm(from 8 cm side). So, the total number of small cubes = 10 × 8 = 80.
Ans 3: (a)
only corner cubes will have three surface paints and this cuboid has only four corner faces. so, the answer will be 4.
Ans 4: (b)
Only a single side-colored yellow cube will be left out. So, the answer will be
6 + 6 = 12 cubes.
Ans 5: (a)
B is the grandmother of F
Ans 6: (b)
C is the daughter of B. All are true except (2).
Ans 7: (c)
The distance between E and C is 12 m.
The distance between E and C cannot be determined since we don’t know the distance between C and H.
Ans 8: (c)
From the given information, draw a family tree and distance diagram as shown:
Part-C (VARC - CAT Sample Paper Solution)
Ans 1: (b)
‘Was’ is associated with the past tense. In discussing hypothetical situations, the subjunctive mood is used.
The correct usage is ‘If I were…I would….’
Ans 2: (c)
One of the problems is singular, as it refers to one of many problems. So, the right verb to be used with this subject is ‘is’, not ‘are’. The correct usage is “One of the problems……..is…
Ans 3: (b)
The expression ‘the number’ indicates a single arithmetical value. So, it is followed by a singular verb. On the other hand, the expression ‘a number’ serves as an indefinite pronoun meaning many. So, it is followed by a plural verb.
Ans 4: (d)
The first error is corrected by either saying ‘as you are a teacher’, or ‘being that you are a teacher’. The second error is in the use of ‘if’ after ‘hoping’. ‘Hoping’ is normally followed by a noun clause beginning with ‘that’(either explicitly stated or implied), or it is followed by ‘for’, or ‘to’.
Ans 5: (b)
use the 2nd form of the verb. Wanted in place of want.
Ans 6: (c)
Be fulfilled in place of fulfil
Ans 7: (a)
replace is with has been
Ans 8: (b)
have in place of “had”.
Ans 9: (c)
replace had with has
