In a class test, the sum of Shefali's marks in Mathematics and English
2 marks more in Mathematics and 3 marks less in English, the product
would have been 210. Find her marks in the two subjects.
ular field is 60 metres more than the shorter side.

Let take Shefali’s marks in Mathematics = x
Given that
the sum of Shefali’s marks in Mathematics and English is 30
so that marks of Shefali’s in English = 30 – x
given that . she got 2 marks more in Mathematics and 3 marks less in English,
so that marks in mathematics = x +2
marks in English = 30 – x -3 = 27 – x
the product of their marks would have been 210.
So that
(x+2)(27-x) = 210
27 x - x2 + 54 – 2x = 210
25 x - x2 + 54 – 210 = 0
- x2 + 25 x – 156 =0
Change the sign we get
x2-25x +156 =0
x2-25x +156 =0
x2 – 12 x – 13 x + 156 = 0
x(x-12) -13(x-12) =0
(x-12)(x-13)=0
x-12= 0 then x = 12
x-13 = 0 then x = 13
if Shefali marks in mathematics = 12
then marks in English = 30 – 12 = 18
if marks of Shefali in mathematics is 13
then marks in English = 30 – 13 = 17
