Example expecting the student to express his own views.
The teacher advised the students " While solving a quadratic equation using formula method, first find the value of the determinant `b^(2) - 4ac` and then proceed. " Clarify in your own words the reason for this advice.

students were selected from a school on the basis of values for giving awards and were divided into three groups. The first group comprises hard workers, the second group has honest and law abiding students and the third group contains vigilant and obedient students. Double the number of students of the first group added to the number in the second group gives 13, while the combined strength of first and second group is four times that of the third group. Using matrix method, find the number of students in each group. Apart from the values, hard work, honesty and respect for law, vigilance and obedience, suggest one more value, which in your opinion, the school should consider for awards.

The English alphabet is categorised into 5 groups, each starting with a vowel and encompassing the immediately following consonants in the group. Thus, the first group would have letters A, B,C and D, the second E, F, G and H, and so on. These groups are assigned values as 10 for the first, 20 for the second, and so on, up to 50 the last. Every letter in a particular group will have the same value of the group when used to form words. The value of each letter should add up to compute the value of the word. If the word has letters only from the same group, the value of the word would be the value of the letter multiplied by the number of letters in the word. However, if the letters in a word are from different groups, the value of the first letter of the word and any other letter of that group will be the same as that of its group, but that of the subsequent letter will he ‘double’ as much as the value of its group. For example: The value of ‘CAB’ will be 30 (i.e. 10 + 10 + 10 ) as all the three letters are from the first group, each one having a value of 10. The value of ‘BUT’ will be 10 + (50*2) + (40*2)= 190 The value of ‘JUNK’ will be 30 + (50*2) + 30 + 30 = 190 . Now, find out the value of each word in the following questions: SPORT 1) 200 2) 360 3) 380 4) 250 5) None of these
