Question 8: A shopkeeper purchased a book for $Rs. \ 345$, a pencil box for $Rs. \ 62$, a note book for $Rs. \ 21$ and a pen for $Rs. \ 79$. He sold the book for $Rs. \ 376$, pencil for $Rs. \ 55$, notebook for $Rs. \ 25$ and a pen for $Rs. \ 67$. What is his gain or loss?

Total Cost in Rs. $= 345 + 62 + 21 + 79 = 507$

Total Sales in Rs. $= 376 + 55 + 25 + 67 = 523$

Gain = Total Sales – Total Cost $= 523 - 507 = Rs. \ 16$

Question 9: Find an integer such that:

(i) $a+ (-7) = 0$   (ii) $(-4) + a = 0$   (iii) $a + 12 = 0$   (iv) $21 + a = 0$

(i) $a+ (-7) = 0$ $\Rightarrow$ $a = 7$   (ii) $(-4) + a = 0$ $\Rightarrow$ $a = 4$

(iii) $a + 12 = 0$ $\Rightarrow$ $a = -12$   (iv) $21 + a = 0$ $\Rightarrow$ $a = -21$

$\\$

Question 10: Subtract:

(i) $3715$ from $(-468)$   (ii) $(-329)$ from $0$   (iii) $(-2347)$ from $1543$

(iv) $(-4682)$ from $(-419)$   (v) $(-76)$ from the sum of $(-813)$ and $248$

(vi) The sum of $(-66)$ and $619$ from the sum of $597$ and $(-184)$

(i) $(-468) - (3715) = -4183$   (ii) $0 - (-329) = 329$   (iii) $1543 - (-2347) = 3890$

(iv) $(-419) - (4682) = 4263$   (v) $(-813) + 248 - (-76) = -489$

(vi) $\{ (597) + (-184) \} - \{ (-66) + 619 \} = (413) - (553) = -140$

Question 11: Simplify:

(i) $\{ (-78) - (-92) \}+ \{ (-54) - (-21) \}$   (ii) $\{ 92 - (-53) \} - \{ 76 - (-132) \}$

(i) $\{ (-78) - (-92) \}+ \{ (-54) - (-21) \} = (-78 + 92)+ (-54 + 21) = 14 + (-33) = -19$

(ii) $\{ 92 - (-53) \} - \{ 76 - (-132) \} = (92 + 53) - (76 + 132) = 145 - 208$

Question 12: The sum of the two integers is $-29$. If one of the integer is $182$, find the other.

Answer: Let one integer $= a$

$a + 182 = -29 \Rightarrow a = -29-(182) = -211$

$\\$

Question 13: The difference of an integer $a$ and $-37$ is $-14$. Find the value of $a$.

$a - (-37) = -14$   $\Rightarrow a = -14 + (-37) = -51$

$\\$

Question 14: During a month, the average temperature of desert region was $37^o C$ and the average night temperature was $-4^o C$. Find the difference between the average day temperature and the average night temperature

Ave. day temperature – Avg. night temperature   $= 37 - (-4)$  $= 41^o \ C$

(iv) $(-289) \times (-173)$   (v) $(-25) \times 17 \times (-42)$   (vi) $31 \times 13 \times (-23)$

(i) $16 \times 25 = 400$   (ii) $(-34) \times 76= -2584$

(iii) $26 \times (-496)= -12896$   (iv) $(-289) \times (-173)=49997$

(v) $(-25) \times 17 \times (-42)=17850$   (vi) $31 \times 13 \times (-23)= -9269$

Question 16: Divide

(i) $893$ by $19$   (ii) $(-629)$ by $37$   (iii) $224$ by $(-14)$    (iv)  $(-423)$ by $(-47)$

(i) $839 / 19=47$    (ii) $(-629) / 37= -17$

(iii) $224 / (-14)= -16$    (iv) $(-423) / (-47)=9$

Question 17: In an examination consisting of $20$ questions, $5$ marks are awarded for each correct question, $(-2)$ marks are awarded for each incorrect answer and $0$ for each question left un-attempted.  Aditya answered $10$ questions correctly and $2$ questions incorrectly. While Cyrus answered $12$ questions correctly and $8$ questions incorrectly. Who scored more marks and what was his score.

Aditya’s Marks $=10 \times 5+2 \times (-2)=46$

Cyrus’s Marks  $=12 \times 5+8 \times (-2)=44$

Therefore Aditya scored more marks and his score was $46$ marks.
