Question 7.
How did your school celebrate the Constitution Day on November 26th? Prepare a brief report.
Answer:
The existence and successful survival of democracy in such diverse conditions is the most celebrated fact about our country and constitution is its backbone. To reinforce the significance and importance of constitution, the government of India declared 26th of November as Constitution Day on 19 November 2015 by a gazettee notification in remembrance of the father of Indian Constitution, Dr. B.R. Ambedkar.

The occasion was also celebrated in my school. It was marked by the conduct of a ‘Special Assembly’ by the students of the school. The celebration started with very apt words as the thought for the day “The flavour of tricolour should not be depicted only through our words, but also through our actions.” This worthy thought was followed by an oath on preamble taken by the students. The assembly ground echoed with the words, “We the people of India”.

A specially-designed quiz was conducted to enhance the awareness of the students about their constitution. The answers were fast and prompt. Then came the culmination of the ceremony a speech on our constitution, which took us on a journey of our constitution from its history to its present-day form and its important role to bring together an idea called India. This is how Constitution Day was celebrated in our school.

Question 8.
Here are different opinions about what made India a democracy. How much importance would you give to each of these factors?
(a) The concept democracy in India gained momentum during the colonial rule under the British rulers. We received training to work with representative legislative institutions under the British rule.
(b) Our freedom struggle challenged the colonial exploitation and denial of different freedoms to Indians. Free India could not be anything but democratic.
(c) We were lucky to have leaders who had democratic convictions. The denial of democracy in several other newly independent countries shows the important role of these leaders.
Answer:
(a) Democracy in India is not a gift of the British rulers. But it is true that during British rule, the experience and training gained by the Indians in the working of the legislative institutions proved to be very useful for the country, in setting up its own democratic institutions and working in them.

(b) Since, Indians had suffered a lot under the colonial rule of the Britishers, India could not be anything but democratic.
(c) It is true that Indians were lucky to have leaders who had strong democratic convictions.

Question 9.
Read the following extract from a conduct book for ‘married woman’, published in 1912. ‘God has made the female species delicate and fragile both physically and emotionally, pitiably incapable of self-defence. They are destined thus by God to remain in male protection of father, husband and son all their lives. Women should, therefore, not despair, but feel obliged that they can dedicate themselves to the service of men.’ Do you think the values expressed in this para reflected the values underlying our constitution? Or does this go against the constitutional values?
Answer:
This para does not reflect the values underlying our constitution because our constitution gives equal rights to both men and women.

Question 1.
I have heard a different version. Democracy is off the people, far (from) the people and (where they) buy the people. Why don’t we accept that ?
Answer:
In some cases, the democracy if off the people, far (from) the people and (where they) buy the people, i.e., where the democracy does not belong to the people, it is not for them but far away from them, where the democracy is not by the people but the candidates win the votes with money which means that true democracy does not exist.

Question 1.
Ribiang went back home and collected some more famous quotations on democracy. This time she did not mention the names of the people who said or wrote these. She wants you to read these and comment on how good or useful these thoughts are:
(a) Democracy gives every man the right to be his own oppressor.
(b) Democracy consists of choosing your dictators after they have told you what you think it is you want to hear.
(c) Man’s capacity for justice makes democracy possible, but man’s inclination to injustice makes democracy necessary.
(d) Democracy is a device that insures we shall be governed no better than we deserve.
(e) All the ills of democracy can be cured by more democracy.
Answer:
(a) This view is also true to the extent that the representative we choose exploits us, but there is no fault of democracy. It is the fault of the person who does not appreciate those feelings of the people, because of which people have chosen him. This is actually an abuse of democratic method.

(b) If we look in the present context, this idea is practically applicable to our system. The people whom we elect as our representatives, forget our problems and think of their self-interest and benefit but which is contradictory to democratic principles. Such ideas have no utility in democracy or society. We should choose our representatives thoughtfully.

(c) Democracy demands that the ruling class must have the ability to provide justice. If the people’s representatives are not able to deliver justice and attend the problems of the people, then democracy has no meaning. Prevention of injustice needs democracy. Social, economic and political injustice can be effectively removed under the democratic framework. Hence the usefulness of this idea is immense.

(d) The idea is somewhat correct that the government is also like the people. Our views are also as we are, but democracy is a system in which if there is an alternative, we cam give better people a chance to represent themselves. The utility of this idea is very much in the present context.

(e) The more democratic we are, the greater is the participation and transparency of governance. With the increasing consent of the people, the chances of conflicts are reduced and peace is established in the country. This leads the country towards prosperity. Therefore, this idea also has great utility.

Question 2.
Why talk about Zimbabwe? I read similar reports from many parts of our own country. Why don’t we discuss that?
Answer:
The example of Zimbabwe shows that popular approval of the rulers is necessary in a democracy, but it is not sufficient. A democratic government cannot do whatever it likes, simply because it has won the election. This is the reason for which Zimbabwe is discussed here. Our country is democratic and elections are free and fair. However, sometimes we hear reports about use of unfair means, violence and power play in elections.

Question 1.
Rajesh and Muzaffar read an article. It showed that no democracy has ever gone to war with another democracy. Wars take place only when one of the two governments is non- democratic. The article said that this was a great merit of democracy. After reading the essay, Rajesh and Muzaffar had different reactions. Rajesh said that this was not a good argument for democracy. It was just a matter of chance. It is possible that in future democracies may have wars. Muzaffar said that it could not be a matter of chance. Democracies take decisions in such a way that it reduces the chances of war. Which of the two positions do you agree with and why?
Answer:
I agree with Muzaffar’s argument. In democracy, the decision is taken after discussion and keeping in view the welfare of the people. So, the chances of war are minimised due in democracy, but we cannot say that it is not possible. Some wars were fought between democracies like India and Pakistan, e.g., ‘Kargil War’ when both countries were democratic countries.

Question 1.
This famous cartoon by R.K. Laxman comments on the celebrations of the fifty years of independence. How many images on the wall do you recognize? Do many common people feel the way the common man in this cartoon does?
Answer:
Images on the wall are of the Prime Ministers of India in the past, beginning with (from left to right) Jawaharlal Nehru, Lai Bahadur Shastri, Gulzari Lai Nanda, Moraxji Desai, Chaudhary Charan Singh, Indira Gandhi, Rajeev Gandhi, V.P. Singh, Chandrashekhar, P.V. Narsimha Rao, Deva Gowda and Atal Bihari Vajpayee.

Yes, many common people feel the way the common man in this cartoon does. Even after so many glorious years of independence, the condition of the common man has changed very little. The promises of the politicians have proved to be meaningless to the common man, so he fell asleep while hearing these again. It is the true picture of our democracy.

Question 10.
In 2004 a report pubished in the USA pointed to the increasing inequalities in that country. Inequalities in income reflected in the participation of people in democracy. It also shaped their abilities to influence the decisions taken by the government. The report highlighted that:
(a) If an average black family earns $100, then the income of average white family is $162. A white family has twelve times more wealth than the average black family.

(b) In a president’s election nearly 9 out of 10 individuals in families with income over $75,000 have voted. These people are the top 20% of the population in terms of their income. On the other hand only 5 people out of 10 from families with income less the $15,000 have voted. They are the bottom 20% of the population in terms of their income.

(c) About 95% contribution to the political parties comes from the rich. This gives them opportunity to express their opinions and concerns, which is not available to most citizens.

(d) As poor sections participate less in politics, the govenment does not listen to their concerns-coming out of poverty, getting job, eduation, healthcare and housing for them. Politicians hear most regularly about the concerns of business persons and the rich. Write an essay on ‘Democracy and Poverty’ using the information given in this report but using examples from India.
Answer:
Democracy and Poverty:
Democratic societies are free societies. Economic activity is market-oriented; the price of each factor-service is determined by the value of its service to the society. Hence, there are inequalities in income distribution. Income disparties ai therefore, inherent in a democracy.

Poor people co-exist with rich people. But democracy ensu, es equal rights to all individuals, irrespective of their economic status. Everybody enjoys equal voting rights. Therefore, in theory, there is nothing wrong with democracy on this account.

But, in practice, the rich people of the society have more resources at their command. The rich people control the media and use it for their own benefit. Influence of the rich over politics is clearly visible in countries like USA, England and India. In India, only the rich can contest elections.

The votes of poor people are bought and sold. The poor cannot fight elections against the rich to get elected. Like USA, in India different political parties pay more attention to the concerns of the rich who contribute most of their funds. What is required, therefore, is that a mechanism should be evolved to organise the poor and educate them about their rights. They can be trained to assert their democratic rights.

Table 6.1 reveals that despite the decline in growth rates, the number of people being added every decade is steadily increasing. Why?
Answer:
The number of people are increasing every decade because India has a vary large population. When a low annual rate is applied to a very large population, it yields a large absolute increase. When more than a billion people increase even at a lower rate, the total numbers being added becomes very large. So, the number of people being added every decade is steadily increasing.

Question 2.
Answer the following questions briefly:
1. Why is the rate of population growth in India declining since 1981?
Answer:
Since 1981, the rate of population growth in India started declining gradually because during this period, birth rate declined rapidly.

2. Discuss the major components of population growth.
Answer:
The major components of population growth are as follows:
1. Birth Rate:
It is the number of live births per 1000 persons in a year. It is a major component of growth, because in India, birth rate has always been higher than death rate.

2. Death Rate:
It is the number of deaths per 1000 persons in a year. The main cause of the rate of growth of the population is the rapid decline in death rate.

3. Migration:
It is the movement of people across regions and territories. Migration can be internal or international. Internal migration does not change the size of the population, but it influences the distribution of population within the nation.

3. Define age structure, death rate and birth rate.
Answer:

  1. Age structure: It refers to the number of people in different age groups in a country. It is classified into three broad categories:
    • Children (generally below 15 years)
    • Working age (15-59 years)
    • Aged (Above 59 years).
  2. Death Rate: Number of deaths per 1000 persons in a year.
  3. Birth Rate: Number of births per 1000 persons in a year.

4. How is migration a determinant factor of population change?
Answer:
Migration means movement of people across the regions and territories. Migration can be internal or external. When internal migration takes place, it does not change the size of the population of a country but influences the density of population. This phenomenon of migration has resulted in the steady growth of population in towns and cities in India.

In India, people have migrated to the cities because of employment opportunities and better amenities. In international and external migration, people go to different countries because of higher education or employment opportunities. If this takes place in large numbers, it can affect the size of the population.

JAC Class 9 Social Science Solutions Geography Chapter 6 Population

Question 3.
Distinguish between population growth and population change.
Answer:
Difference between Population Growth and Population Change:

Population Growth Population Change
1. It refers to the change in the number of inhabitants of a country/territory during a specific period of time. 1. It refers to the change in population composition.
2. It can be expressed in two ways:
(a) in terms of absolute numbers
(b) in terms of percentage change per year.
2.  It can be affected by three factors:
(a) birth rate,
(b) death rate, and
(c) migration.
3. In this process, change in population size takes place. 3. In this process, change in population istribution and occupational structure takes place.

Question 4.
What is the relation between occupational structure and development?
Answer:
The occupational structure refers to the distribution of the population according to different types of occupation. An economically-active percentage of population is an important index of development. Occupations are generally classified as primary, secondary and tertiary. In developed nations, a major proportion of population is engaged in secondary and tertiary activities, i.e., activities like manufacturing industry, construction, transport, communication, etc.

On the other hand, The proportion of people working in different activities reflect the economic development of a country. Developed nations have a high proportion of people in secondary and tertiary activites. In developing countries like India, a major portion of the population is engaged in primary activities like agriculture. Thus, there is a close relationship between occupational structure and development.

The following major types of vegetation may be identified in India:

  1. Tropical Evergreen forests,
  2. Tropical Deciduous forests,
  3. Tropical thorn forests and scrubs,
  4. Montane forests, and
  5. Mangrove forests.

The vegetation found on high altitudes is known as montane vegetation. The chief characteristics of these forests are:

  1. The wet temperate type of forests are found between a height of 1000 metres to 2000 metres. Evergreen broad-leaf trees such as oaks and chestnuts predominate.
  2. Between 1500 metres and 3000 metres, temperate forests containing coniferous trees like pine, deodar, silver fir, spruce and cedar are found.
  3. At high altitudes, generally more than 3600 metres above sea level, temperate forests and grasslands give way to the alpine vegetation. Silver fir, junipers, pines and birches are the common trees of these forests. Ultimately, through shrubs and scrubs they merge into alpine grasslands.
  4. At higher altitudes, mosses and lichens form part of tundra vegetation.

Question 5.

Answer:
Endangered species of plants and animals are those which face the danger of getting extinct. About 1300 plant species and quite a few animal species have been identified as endangered species in India. The main causes for these plants and animals species becoming endangered are as follows:

  1. Hunting by greedy hunters for commercial purposes.
  2. Pollution due to chemical and industrial wastes, acid deposits etc.
  3. Introduction of alien species causing imbalance in the ecosystem.
  4. Reckless cutting of plants and trees to bring land under cultivation, expanding industrialisation and habitation etc.

Question 6.
Why has India a rich heritage of flora and fauna?
Answer:
India has all the major physical features of the earth, i.e., mountains, plains, deserts, plateaus and islands. These five factors are suitable for the growth and development of both animal and plant kingdom in India and are essential for the growth of the bio-diversity.

The different regions of the country have different soil types, different types of climate with great variations in humidity and temperature across the country. Even the rainfall is also unevenly disturbed, and various types of species of plants and animals require different climatic conditions and different soil types. Hence, the flora and fauna found in India is diverse and rich.

JAC Board Class 10 Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Arithmetic Progressions Exercise 5.1

Question 1.
In which of the following situations, does the list of numbers involved make an arithmetic progression, and why?
1. The taxi fare after each km, when the fare is ₹ 15 for the first km and ₹ 8 for each additional km.
2. The amount of air present in a cylinder when a vacuum pump removes \(\frac{1}{4}\) of the air remaining in the cylinder at a time.
3. The cost of digging a well after every metre of digging, when it costs ₹ 150 for the first metre and rises by ₹ 50 for each subsequent metre.
4. The amount of money in the account every year, when ₹ 10,000 is deposited at compound interest at 8% per annum.
Solution:
1. Here, the fare for 1 km = ₹ 15
the fare for 2 km = ₹ 15 + ₹ 8 = ₹ 23,
the fare for 3 km = ₹ 15 + 2 (₹8) = ₹ 31,
the fare for 4 km = ₹ 15 + 3 (₹8) = ₹ 39, and so on.
The list of numbers formed is 15, 23, 31, 39, …………..
Here, a2 – a1 = 23 – 15 = 8.
a3 – a2 = 31 – 23 = 8.
a4 – a3 = 39 – 31 = 8, and so on.
Thus, ak+1 – ak is the same every time.
Hence, the list of numbers forms an AP with a = 15 and d = 8.

2. Let the volume of air present in the cylinder at the beginning be V units. Then, volume of air remaining in the cylinder after first attempt = \(\frac{3}{4}\)V units. Also, volume of air remaining in the cylinder after second attempt = \(\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^2\)V units. Here, the list of numbers formed is V, \(\frac{3}{4}\)V, \(\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^2\)V, ………
Now, a2 – a1 = \(\frac{3}{4}\)V – V = –\(\frac{1}{4}\)V
a3 – a2 = \(\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^2\)V – \(\frac{3}{4}\)V
= \(V\left(\frac{9}{16}-\frac{3}{4}\right)\)
= \(– \frac{3}{16}\)V
Here, a2 – a1 ≠ a3 – a2.
Hence, the list of numbers does not form an AP.

3. Cost of digging first metre = ₹ 150
Cost of digging the second metre = ₹ 150 + ₹ 50
= ₹ 200
Cost of digging the third metre = ₹ 200 + ₹ 50
= ₹ 250
Cost of digging the fourth metre = ₹ 250 + ₹ 50
= ₹ 300
The list of numbers formed is 150, 200, 250, 300,…
Here, a2 – a1 = 200 – 150 = 50,
a3 – a2 = 250 – 200 = 50,
a4 – a3 = 300 – 250 = 50, and so on.
Thus, ak+1 – ak is the same every time. Hence, the list of numbers forms an AP with a = 150 and d = 50.

4. The formula of compound interest is known to us.
A = \(P\left(1+\frac{R}{100}\right)^T\)
Here, P = ₹ 10,000; R = 8% and T = 1, 2, 3, 4, ……….
Amount at the end of 1st year = ₹ 10000 (1.08).
Amount at the end of 2nd year = ₹ 10000 (1.08)2.
Amount at the end of 3rd year = ₹ 10000 (1.08)3.
The list of numbers formed is 10000 (1.08), 10000 (1.08)2, 10000 (1.08), ………..
a2 – a1 = 10000 (1.08)2 – 10000 (1.08)3
= 10000 (1.08) (1.08 – 1)
= 10000 (1.08) (0.08)
a3 – a2 = 10000 (1.08)3 – 10000 (1.08)2
= 10000 (1.08)2 (1.08 – 1)
= 10000 (1.08)2 (0.08)
Thus, a2 – a1 ≠ a3 – a2
Hence, the list of numbers does not form an AP.

Question 2.
Write first four terms of the AP when the first term a and the common difference d are given as follows:
1. a = 10, d = 10
2. a = -2, d = 0
3. a = 4, d = -3
4. a = -1, d = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
5. a = -1.25, d = -0.25
Solution:
1. a = 10, d = 10
First term a = 10
Second term = First term + d
= 10 + 10 = 20
Third term = Second term + d
= 20 + 10 = 30
Fourth term = Third term + d
= 30 + 10 = 40
Thus, the required first four terms of the AP are 10, 20, 30, 40.

2. a = -2, d = 0
First term = a = -2
Second term = First term + d
= -2 + 0 = -2
Third term = Second term + d
= -2 + 0 = -2
Fourth term = Third term + d
= -2 + 0 = -2
Thus, the required first four terms of the AP are -2, -2, -2, -2.

3. a = 4, d = -3
First term = a = 4
Second term = First term + d
= 4 + (-3) = 1
Third term = Second term + d
= 1 + (-3) = -2
Fourth term = Third term + d
= (-2) + (-3) = -5
Thus, the required first four terms of the AP are 4, 1, -2, -5.

4. a = -1, d = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
First term = a = -1
Second term = First term + d
= -1 + \(\frac{1}{2}\) = –\(\frac{1}{2}\)
Third term = Second term + d
= \(-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}\) = 0
Fourth term = Third term + d
= 0 + \(\frac{1}{2}\) = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
Thus, the required first four terms of the AP are -1, – \(\frac{1}{2}\), 0, \(\frac{1}{2}\).

5. a = -1.25, d = -0.25
The general form of an AP is a, a + d, a + 2d, a + 3d, …….. Then,
First term = a = -1.25
Second term = a + d
= -1.25 + (-0.25) = -1.50
Third term = a + 2d
= -1.25 + 2(-0.25) = -1.75
Fourth term = a + 3d
= -1.25 + 3(-0.25) = -2.00
Thus, the required first four terms of the AP are -1.25, -1.50, -1.75, -2.00.

2. -5, 1, 3, 7,…..
First term a = -5
Common difference d = (-1) – (-5) = 4

3. \(\frac{1}{3}, \frac{5}{3}, \frac{9}{3}, \frac{13}{3}, \ldots\)
First term a = \(\frac{1}{3}\)
Common difference d = \(\frac{5}{3}-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{4}{3}\)

4. 0.6, 1.7, 2.8, 3.9, ……

JAC Class 9th Social Science Notes Economics Chapter 1 The Story of Village Palampur

JAC Board Class 9th Social Science Notes Economics Chapter 1 The Story of Village Palampur

→ Introduction

  • The story of village Palampur is a narrative story based on a research study by Gilbert Etiena of a village in Bulandshahar district (Uttar Pradesh).
  • The purjpsse of the story of village Palampur, an imaginative village, is to introduce some basic concepts relating to production like-farming, small scale manufacturing, dairy, transport etc.
  • These production activities need various types of resources such as; natural resources, man-made resources, man-power, money etc.
  • Farming is the main activity in Palampur.
  • Palampur is well-connected with neighbouring villages and towns. An all weather road and many kinds of transport are visible on this road like, bullock carts, motorcycles, jeeps, tractors and trucks etc.
  • Palampur has about 450 families belonging to several different castes.
  • The dalits comprise one-third of the population of the village. Their houses are made of mud and straw.
  • Palampur has a fairly well-developed system of roads, transport, electricity, irrigation, school and health centre.
  • In villages across India, farming is the main production activity. The other production
  • activities are small-scale manufacturing, transport, shop-keeping etc.

JAC Class 9th Social Science Notes Economics Chapter 1 The Story of Village Palampur

→ Organisation of Production

  • The aim of production is to produce the goods and services that we need.
  • The factors of production are land, labour, physical capital and human capital.
  • Land is the first requirement for produciton and the second is labour.
  • Physical capital includes tools, machines, buildings, i.e., fixed capital and raw materials and money in hand, i.e., working capital.
  • Knowledge and enterprise come under human capital. It is required to put together all the above inputs to produce the output.

→ Land is fixecT

  • 75% per cent people of Palampur are dependent on farming for their livelihood.
  • There has been no expansion in land area under cultivation in Palampur since 1960.
  • The standard unit of measuring land is hectare, though in the villages it is measured in local units as bigha, guintha etc.

→ Ways to grow more from the same land

  • In Palampur, all land is cultivated. No land is left idle.
  • During the rainy season, farmers of Palampur grow jowar, bajra, potato, wheat and
    sugarcane.
  • During the winter season, fields are sown with wheat. From the produced wheat, farmers keep enough wheat for their family’s consumption and sell the rest of the wheat in the market at Raiganj.
  • A part of land is also devoted to sugarcane production, which is harvested once every year.
  • Farmers in Palampur are able to grow three different crops in a year due to a well- developed system of irrigation.
  • The first few tubewells were installed by the government in Palampur.
  • Of the total cultivated area in the country, a little less than 40 per cent is irrigated even today. In the remaining area, farming is largely dependent on rainfall.
  • To grow more than one crop on a piece of land during the year is called multiple cropping.
  • Multiple cropping is the most common way of increasing production on a given piece of land.
  • The Green Revolution in the late 1960s introduced the Indian farmer to cultivation of wheat and rice using high yielding varieties of seeds.
  • Farmers of Punjab, Haryana and Western Uttar Pradesh were the first to try out the
    modern farming methods in India. .
  • In Palampur, with the use of HYV seeds, the yield of wheat went up to 3200 kg per hectare as compared to 1300 kg per hectare with the traditional seeds.
  • Farmer now had greater amounts of surplus wheat to sell in the markets.

JAC Class 9th Social Science Notes Economics Chapter 1 The Story of Village Palampur

→ Sustenance of land

  • Modern farming methods have overused the natural resources base.
  • The Green Revolution is associated with the loss of soil fertility in many areas due to increased use of chemical fertilizers.
  • Chemical fertilizers kill the bacteria and micro organisms on the soil and reduce its fertility.
  • About one-third population of Palampur is landless while most of them are dalits.

→ Availability of labour

  • Farming requires a great deal of hard work.
  • Small farmers along with their families cultivate their own fields. Medium and large farmers hire farm labourers to work on their fields.
  • Farm labourers come either from landless families or families cultivating small plots of land.
  • These labourers can be paid in cash or in objects like crops; sometimes they get meals also.
  • Wages vary widely from region to region, from crop to crop and from one farm activity toanotfe
  • There is also a wide variation in the duration of employment.

→ Capital needed in farming.

  • As modern farming methods require a great deal of capital, the farmer needs more money for it.
  • Mostly, small farmers have to borrow money ffom large farmers or the village money lenders or traders to arrange modern farming methods.
  • The rate of interest on such loans is»very high. They are put to great distress to repay the loan.

→ Sale of surplus farm products

  • The large and medium farmers of Palampur retain a part of the produced grain for their own use and sell the surplus in the market.
  • The farmers earn a good amount of money through this sale.
  • They use this money to purchase inputs for the next farming season, purchase capital equipment or even give loans to small farmers.

→ Non-Farm Activities in Palampur

  • Only 25 per cent of the people working in Palampur are engaged in activities other than agriculture.
  • There is a variety of non-agricultural activities in the village, e.g., dairy farming, manufacturing activities, shop keeping, transportation, computer education, jaggery production, etc.

JAC Class 9th Social Science Notes Civics Chapter 5 Democratic Rights

JAC Board Class 9th Social Science Notes Civics Chapter 5 Democratic Rights

→ Introduction

  • A democratic government has to be periodically elected by the people in a free and fair manner.
  • A democracy must be based on institutions that follow certain rules and porcedures.
  • These elements are necessary but not sufficient for a democracy.
  • Elections and institutions need to be combined with a third element-enjoyment of rights to make a government democratic.
  • When the socially recognised claims (rights) are written into law in democracy they are called democratic rights.
  • This chapter deals with democratic rights and their significance.

JAC Class 9th Social Science Notes Civics Chapter 5 Democratic Rights

→ Life without rights

  • The importance of rights can be judged by the one whose life has absence of rights.
  • The following three examples state what it means to live in the absence of rights:

→ Prison in Goantanamo Bay

  • About 600 people were secretly picked up by the United States of America’s forces from all over the world and put in a prison in Goantanamo Bay, near cuba.
  • According to the American Government, they were enemies of the United State and linked to the attack on New york on 11th September, 2001,
  • As a result, there was no trial before any magistrate in the United State, nor could these prisoners approach courts in their own country.
  • Amnesty international, reported that the prisoners were being tortured in ways that violated the United States of America’s laws. Despite the provisions of international treaties, prisoners were being denied the treatment.

→ Citizens Rights in saudi Arabia

  • Saudi Arabia is ruled over by a hereditary king and the people have no role in electing or changing their rulers.
  • The king selects the legislature as well as the executive.
  • He appoints the judges and can change any of their decisions.
  • Citizens cannot form political parties or any political organisation
  • Media cannot report anything that the monarch does not like.
  • There is not freedom of religion. Every citizen is required to be muslim. Non-muslim residents can follow their religion in private, but not in public.
  • Women are subjected to many public restrictions. The testimony of one man is considerd equal to that of two women.

JAC Class 9th Social Science Notes Civics Chapter 5 Democratic Rights

→ Ethnic Massacre in Kosovo

  • Kosovo was a province of yugoslavia before its split.
  • In yugoslavia, serbs were in majority and Albanians were in minority.
  • A democratically elected serb leader Slobodan milosevic wanted to dominate the country.
  • Serbs thought that the albanians, (the ethnic minority group) should leave the country or accept the dominance of serbs.

→ Rights in a Democracy

  • Everyone wants a system where at least a minimum asurance is guaranteed to all whether he/she is powerful or weak, rich or poor, majority or minority.

→ What are rights?

  • Rights are reasonable claims of persons recognised in society and sanctioned by law.

→ Why do we need rights in a democracy?

  • Rights are necessary for the very sustenance of a democracy.
  • In a democracy, every citizen has the rights to vote and the rights to be elected to government.
  • Rights protect minorities from the oppression of majority. They ensure that majority cannot do whatever it wishes to do.

→ Right in the Indian constitution

  • Some rights which are fundamental to our life are given a special status in Indian constitution. They are called Fundamental Rights.
  • Our constitution provides six fundamental rights.

→ Right to equality

  • The constitution says that the government shall not deny the equality before the law or the equal protection of the laws to any person in India. It means that the laws apply in the same manner to all, regardless of a person’s status. This is called the rule of law.
  • Right to equality is the foundation of any democracy. It means that no person is above the law.
  • The government shall not discriminate against any citizen on grounds only of religion race, caste, sex or place of birth.
  • Every citizen shall have access to public places like shops, restaurants, hotels, and cinema halls.
  • The government of India has provided reservation for scheduled castes (SCs), scheduled Tribes (STs) and other backward classes (OBCS). But these reservations are not against the right to equality.
  • The constitution directs the government to put an end to the practice of untouchability. It is the extrerr 3 form of social discrimination.

→ Right to freedom

  • Freedom mean absence of constraint. In practical life, it means absence of interference in our affairs h others be it other individuals or the government.
  • Under the Indian constitution, all citizens have’the right to: (i) Freedom of speech and expression (ii) Assembly in a peaceful manner (iii) form associations, unions and cooperative societies (iv) Move freely throughout the country, (v) Reside in any part of the country (vi) practice any profession or to carry on any occupation, trade or business.
  • Freedom is not unlimited license to do what one wants. The government can impose certain reasonable restrictions on our freedom in the larger interests of the society.

JAC Class 9th Social Science Notes Civics Chapter 5 Democratic Rights

→ Right Against Exploitation

  • Constitution makers thought it is necessary to write down certain clear provisions to prevent exploitation of the weaker sections of the society.
  • The constitution mentions three specific evils and declares these illegal.
  • First, the constitution prohibits ‘traffic’ in human beings. Traffic here means selling and buying of human beings, usually, women or children, for immoral purposes.
  • Second, our constitution also prohibits forced labour or begar in any form. Begar is a practice where the worker is forced to render service to the master free of charge or at a nominal remuneration.
  • Third the constitution prohibits child labour. No one can employ a child below the age of 14 to work in any factory or mine or any other hazardous work, such as railways and ports.

→ Right to Freedom of Religion

  • Every person has right to profess, practice and propagate the religion he or she believes in.
  • Every religious group or sect is free to manage its religious affairs. Freedom to propagate one’s religion, does not mean that a person has right to compl another person to convert into his religion by means of force, around inducement or allurement.
  • India is a secular state. A secular state is one that does not establish any one religion as official religion. In India no privilege or favor is provided to any particular religion.

→ Cultural and Educational Right

  • The following cultural and educational rights for minoritis are specified by our constitution.
  • Any section of citizens with a distinct language or culture have a right to conserve it
  • Admission to any educational institution maintained by government or receiving government aid cannot be denied to any citizen on the grounds of religion or language
  • All minorities have the right to establish and administer educational institution of their choice.

→ How can we secure these rights?

  • The fundamental rights in the constitution are important because they are enforceable.
  • We have a right to seek the enforcement of these mentioned rights. This is called the right to constitutional remedies.
  • This right makes other rights effective when any of the fundamental rights are violated then citizen can directly approach the supreme court or the high court of a state.
  • That is why Dr. Ambedkar called the right to constitutional remedies the heart and soul of our constitution.
  • The supreme court and high courts have the power to issue directions, order or writs for the enforcement of the fundamental rights.
  • They can also award compensation to the victims and punishment to the violators.
  • In case of any violation of fundamental right the aggrieved person can go to a court for remedy. But now, any person can go to court against the violation of the fundamental right. If it is of social or public interest, It is called public Interset litigation (PIL).
  • Under the PIL any citizen or group of citizens can approach the supreme court or a high court for the protection of public interest against a particular law or action of the judges even on a postcard. The court will take up the matter if the judges find it in public interest against a particular court law or action of the government.

→ Expanding Scope of Rights

  • From time to time the courts gave judgements of expand the scope of right, certain rights like right to freedom of press, sight to information and right to education are derived from the fundamental rights.
  • According to the right to education every child has the right to get elementary education.
  • According to right to information, any body can demand information regarding the functions of a government department or official.
  • Constitution provides many rights which may not be fundamental right e.g. the right to property, right to vote in election are not fundamental rights but these are constitutional rights.
  • Human rights are universal moral claims that may or may not have been recognised by laws.
  • Some international covenants have contributed to the expansion of rights.
  • The national human rights commission (NHIRC) focuses on helping the victims to secure their human rights.
  • International covenant on Economic social and cultural right.

→ Rights

  • The international covenant recognises many rights that are not directly a part of the fundamental rights in the Indian constitution.
  • This has not yet become an international treaty but human right activists all over the world see, this as a standard of human rights. These include.
    • Right to work i.e., opportunity to everyone to earn livelihood by working.
    • Right to safe and healthy working conditions. Fair wages that can provide decent standard of living for the workers and their families.
    • Right to adequate standard of living including adequate food, clothing and housing.
    • Right to social security and insurance.
    • Right to health i.e., medical care during illness, special care for woman during child birth and prevention of epidemics.

JAC Class 9th Social Science Notes Civics Chapter 4 Working of Institutions

JAC Board Class 9th Social Science Notes Civics Chapter 4 Working of Institutions

→ Introduction

  • Democracy is not just about people electing their rulers.
  • In a democracy the rulers have to follow some rules and procedures. They have to work with and within institutions.
  • In this process we come across three institutions that play a key role in major decisions Legislature, executive and judiciary.
  • In this chapter, we will understand how all the institutions together carry on the work of the government.

JAC Class 9th Social Science Notes Civics Chapter 4 Working of Institutions

→ How is a major policy decision taken?

  • The government issues hundreds of orders every day on different matters.
  • President is the head of the state and is the highest formal authority in the country.
  • Prime Minister is the head of the government and actually exercises all governmental powers.
  • Parliament consists of the President and two houses, Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha.
  • The Prime Minister must have the support of a majority of Lok Sabha members.
  • The Government of India had appointed the second Backward classes. Commission in 1979. It was harded by B.P. Mandal.
  • The commission gave its report in 1980 and made many recommendations, one of these was that 27 per cent of government jobs be reserved for the socially and educationally backward classes.

→ Need for Political Institutions

  • To attend all the tasks, several arrangements are made in all modern democracies. Such arrangements are called institutions. The constitution of any country lays down basic rules on the powers and functions of each institution.
  • In our country there are three institutions running the different tasks: (a) The Prime Minister and the cabinet are institutions that take all important policy decisions, (b) The Civil servants, working together are responsible for taking steps to implement the minister’s decisions, (c) Supreme Court is an institution where disputes between citizens and the government are finally settled.
  • Institutions involve rules and regulations. Institutions make it difficult to have a good decision taken very quickly. But they also make it equally difficult to rush through a bad decision. That is why democratic government insist on institutions.

JAC Class 9th Social Science Notes Civics Chapter 4 Working of Institutions

→ Parliament

  • In India, a national assembly of elected representatives is called Parliament. At the state level this is called State Legislature or Legislative Assembly.
  • Parliament is the final authority for making laws in our country.
  • Parliaments all over the world exercise some control over those who run the government.
  • Parliaments control all the money that governments have.
  • Parliament is the highest forum of discussion and debate on public issues and national policy in any democratic country.

→ Two Houses of Parliament

  • In our country, the Parliament consists of two Houses. The two Houses are known as the Council of States (Rajya Sabha) and the House of the People (Lok Sabha).
  • Lok Sabha (House of the people) or lower chamber: It is usually directly elected by the people and exercises the real power on behalf of the people.
  • Rajya Sabha (Council of states) or upper chamber: It is indirectly elected and perform special functions such as interest of various states,regions federal units.
  • Our constitution gives some special powers to Rajya Sabha but on the most of the matters the Lok Sabha exercises supreme power.

→ Political Executive

  • At different levels of any government, we find functionaries who take day-to-day decisions but do not exercise supreme power on behalf of the people. All those functionaries are collectively known as the Executive.

→ Political and Permanent Executive

  • In our country, two categories make up the executive. One that is elected by the people for a specific period, is called the Political Executive. In the second category, people are appointed on a long term basis. This is called the permanent executive or civil services.
  • The political executive has more power than the permanent executive.
  • This is because the political executive is elected by the people and in a democracy will of people is supreme. They are answerable to the people for all consequences of their decision.

→ Prime Minister and Council of Ministers

  • Prime Minister is the most important political institution in the country. The President appoints the leader of the majority party or the coalition of parties that commands a majority in the Lok Sabha, as Prime Minister.
  • Council of Ministers is the official name for the body that includes all the Ministers mainly Cabinet Ministers, Ministers of state with independent charge and Minister of State.
  • Every ministry has secretaries, who are civil servants.
  • No Minister can openly criticise any decision of the government.

→ Powers of the Prime Minister

  • As head of the government, the Prime Minister has wide ranging powers.
  • He chairs cabinet meetings and coordinates the work of different departments.
  • The Prime Minister distributes and redistributes work to the ministers. He also has the power to dismiss ministers.
  • However, in recent years the rise of coalition politics has imposed certain constraints on the power of the Prime Minister.

JAC Class 9th Social Science Notes Civics Chapter 4 Working of Institutions

→ The President

  • The President is the supreme commander of the defence forces of India.
  • The Presidental system
  • Presidents all over the world are not always nominal executives like the President of India. In many countries of the world, the president is both the head of the state and the head of the government. The President of the United States of America is the most well known example of this kind of president.

→ The Judiciary

  • All the courts at different levels in a country put together are called the judiciary. The Indian Judiciary consists of a Supreme Court for the entire nation. High Courts in the states, District Courts and the courts at local level.
  • The judges of the Supreme Court and the High Courts are appointed by the President on the advice of the Prime Minister and in consultation with the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. A judge can be removed only by an impeachment motion passed separately by two-thirds members of the two Houses of the Parliament.
  • The Supreme Court and the High Courts have the power to interpret the constitution of the country.
  • The powers and the independence of the Indian judiciary allow it to act as the guardian of the Fundamental Rights.
  • Courts have given several judgements and directives to protect public interest and human rights. Any one can approach the courts if public interest is hurt by the actions of government. This is called public interest litigation.

Jharkhand Board JAC Class 10 Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Quadratic Equations Ex 4.1 Textbook Exercise Questions and Answers.

JAC Board Class 10 Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Quadratic Equations Exercise 4.1

Question 1.
Check whether the following are quadratic equations:
1. (x + 1)2 = 2(x – 3)
2. x2 – 2x = (-2)(3 – x)
3. (x – 2)(x + 1) = (x – 1)(x + 3)
4. (x – 3)(2x + 1) = x(x + 5)
5. (2x – 1)(x – 3) = (x + 5)(x – 1)
6. x2 + 3x + 1 = (x – 2)2
7. (x + 2) = 2x(x2 – 1)
8. x3 – 4x2 – x + 1 = (x – 2)3
Solution:
1. Here, LHS = (x + 1)2 = x2 + 2x + 1 and
RHS = 2(x – 3) = 2x – 6.
Hence, (x + 1)2 = 2(x – 3) can be rewritten as x2 + 2x + 1 = 2x – 6
∴ x2 + 2x + 1 – 2x + 6 = 0
∴ x2 + 7 = 0
It is of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0.
(a = 1, b = 0, c = 7)
Hence, the given equation is a quadratic equation.

2. Here, RHS = (-2)(3 – x) = -6 + 2x.
Hence, x2 – 2x = (-2) (3 – x) can be rewritten as
x2 – 2x = -6 + 2x
∴ x2 – 4x + 6 = 0
It is of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0.
(a = 1, b = -4, c = 6)
Hence, the given equation is a quadratic equation.

3. Here, LHS = (x – 2) (x + 1) = x2 – x – 2 and
RHS = (x – 1)(x + 3) = x2 + 2x – 3.
Hence, (x – 2)(x + 1)(x – 1)(x + 3) be rewritten as
x2 – x – 2 = x2 + 2x – 3
∴ -3x + 1 = 0
It is not of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0.
Hence, the given equation is not a quadratic equation.

4. Here, LHS = (x – 3) (2x + 1) = 2x2 – 5x – 3
and RHS = x(x + 5) = x2 + 5x.
Hence, (x – 3) (2x + 1) = x(x + 5) can be rewritten as
2x2 – 5x – 3 = x2 + 5x
∴ x2 – 10x – 3 = 0
It is of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0.
(a = 1, b = -10, c = -3)
Hence, the given equation is a quadratic equation.

5. Here, LHS = (2x – 1)(x – 3) = 2x2 – 7x + 3 and
RHS = (x + 5) (x – 1) = x2 + 4x – 5.
Hence, the given equation can be rewritten as
2x2 – 7x + 3 = x2 + 4x – 5
∴ x2 – 11x + 8 = 0
It is of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0.
(a = 1, b = -11, c = 8)
Hence, the given equation is a quadratic equation.

6. Here, RHS = (x – 2)2 = x2 – 4x + 4
Hence, the given equation can be rewritten as
x2 + 3x + 1 = x2 – 4x + 4
∴ 7x – 3 = 0
It is not of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0.
Hence, the given equation is not a quadratic equation.

7. Here, LHS = (x + 2)3 = x3 + 6x2 + 12x + 8 and
RHS = 2x (x2 – 1) = 2x3 – 2x.
Hence, the given equation can be rewritten as
x3 + 6x2 + 12x + 8 = 2x3 – 2x
∴ -x3 + 6x2 + 14x + 8 = 0
It is not of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0.
Hence, the given equation is not a quadratic equation.

8. Here, RHS = (x – 2)3 = x3 – 6x2 + 12x – 8.
Hence, the given equation can be rewritten as
x3 – 4x2 – x + 1 = x3 – 6x2 + 12x – 8
2x2 – 13x + 9 = 0
It is of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0.
(a = 2, b = -13, c = 9)
Hence, the given equation is a quadratic equation.

Question 2.
Represent the following situations in the form of quadratic equations:
1. The area of a rectangular plot is 528 m2. The length of the plot (in metres) is one more than twice its breadth. We need to find the length and breadth of the plot.
Solution:
Let the breadth (in metres) of the rectangular plot be x.
Then, the length (in metres) of the rectangular plot is 2x + 1.
Area of the rectangular plot = Length × Breadth
∴ 528 = (2x + 1) × x
(∵ Area is given to be 528 m2)
∴ 528 = 2x2 + x
∴ 2x2 + x – 528 = 0 is the required quadratic equation to find the length (2x + 1 m) and breadth (x m) of the rectangular plot.

2. The product of two consecutive positive integers is 306. We need to find the integers.
Solution:
Let the two consecutive positive integer be x and x + 1.
Then, their product = x(x + 1) = x2 + x.
This product is given to be 306.
∴ x2 + x = 306
∴ x2 + x – 306 = 0 is the required quadratic equation to find the consecutive positive integers x and x + 1.

3. Rohan’s mother is 26 years older than him. The product of their ages (in years) 3 years from now will be 360. We would like to find Rohan’s present age.
Solution:
Let Rohan’s present age (in years) be x.
Then, his mother’s present age (in years) = x + 26.
3 years from now, Rohan’s age (in years) will be x + 3 and his mother’s age (in years) will be x + 29.
The product of their ages (in years) 3 years from now is given to be 360.
Hence, (x + 3)(x + 29) = 360
∴ x2 + 32x + 87 – 360 = 0
∴ x2 + 32x – 273 = 0 is the required quadratic equation to find the present ages (in years) of Rohan (x) and his mother (x + 26).

4. A train travels a distance of 480 km at a uniform speed. If the speed had been 8 km/h less, then it would have taken 3 hours more to cover the same distance. We need to find the speed of the train.
Solution:
Let the usual uniform speed of the train be x km/h.
Now, Time = \(\frac{\text { distance }}{\text { speed }}\)
∴ Time required to cover 480 km distance at usual speed = t1 = \(\frac{480}{x}\) hours
If the speed is 8 km/hour less, the new speed would be (x – 8) km/hour.
∴ Time required to cover 480 km distance at new speed = t2 = \(\frac{480}{x-8}\) hours
Now, the time required at new speed is 3 hours more than the usual time.
∴ t2 = t1 + 3
∴ \(\frac{480}{x-8}=\frac{480}{x}+3\)
∴ 480x = 480(x – 8) + 3x(x – 8)
(Multiplying by x(x – 8))
∴ 480x = 480x – 3840 + 3x2 – 24x
∴ 0 = 3x2 – 24x – 3840
∴ x2 – 8x – 1280 = 0 is the required quadratic equation to find the usual speed (x km/h) of the train.

भावार्थ: – श्लोकेऽस्मिन् कवि चातकस्य माध्यमेन कथयति यत् सर्वे धनिकाः समृद्धाः वा जनाः दातारः न भवन्ति अतः यं कञ्चित् मानवं मा याचनां कुरु यथा हि कविः भर्तहरि कथयति – ‘रे रे चातक! सावहितः सन् शृणु मित्र। आकाशे अनेके मेघाः आयान्ति यान्ति च परञ्च तेषु केचनैव वर्षन्ति। एवं एव संसारे अनेके धनिका समृद्धाः च मानवा आयान्ति यान्ति च। तेषु केचन यच्छन्ति अन्ये तु व्यर्थमेव आत्मानं प्रदर्शयन्ति। अतोऽहं ब्रवीमि यत् त्वम यं कञ्चनं पश्यति तस्य सम्मुखं याचनाय मा गच्छ। सु दानभावोपेतं जनं ज्ञात्वा एवं याचनाय हस्तौ प्रसारय।

यथा सर्वे वारिदाः चातकाय स्वाति बिन्दुं न दातुं शक्नोति तथैव सर्वे जनाः याचकाय दान न दातुं शक्नुवन्ति। (इस श्लोक में कवि चातक के माध्यम से कहता है कि सभी धनवान या समद्ध लोग दानदाता नहीं होते। अतः जिस किसी मानव से मत याचना करो। जैसा कि कवि भर्तृहरि कहता है-‘ओ चातक! सावधान होकर सुन। मित्र! आकाश में अनेक मेघ आते हैं और चले जाते हैं। उनमें से कुछ ही देते हैं अन्य तो व्यर्थ ही अपना दिखावा करते हैं। अतः मैं चाहता हूँ कि तुम जिस किसी को देखो उसी के सामने याचना के लिये मत जाओ। (अच्छे दान भाव से युक्त व्यक्ति को जानकर याचना के लिये हाथ फैलाओ। जैसे सभी बादल चातक को स्वाति की बूंद नहीं दे सकते हैं वैसे ही सभी लोग याचक को दान नहीं दे सकते हैं।)

Jharkhand Board JAC Class 10 Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Quadratic Equations Ex 4.4 Textbook Exercise Questions and Answers.

JAC Board Class 10 Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Quadratic Equations Exercise 4.4

Question 1.
Find the nature of the roots of the following quadratic equations. If the real roots exist, find them:
1. 2x2 – 3x + 5 = 0
2. 3x2 – 4\(\sqrt{3}\)x + 4 = 0
3. 2x2 – 6x + 3 = 0
Solution:
The given equation is of the form
ax2 + bx + c = 0; where a = 2, b = -3 and c = 5.
Then, the discriminant
b2 – 4ac = (-3)2 – 4(2)(5)
= 9 – 40
= -31 <0
So, the given equation has no real roots.

2. Comparing the given equation with the standard quadratic equation
ax2 + bx + c = 0, we get a = 3, b = -4\(\sqrt{3}\) and c = 4.
Then, the discriminant
b2 – 4ac = (-4\(\sqrt{3}\))2 – 4(3)(4)
= 48 – 48
= 0
So, the given equation has equal real roots.
The roots are \(-\frac{b}{2 a},-\frac{b}{2 a}\)
i.e., \(-\frac{-4 \sqrt{3}}{2(3)},-\frac{-4 \sqrt{3}}{2(3)}\), i.e., \(\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}, \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\)

3. The given equation is of the form
ax2 + bx + c = 0, where a = 2, b = -6 and c = 3.
Then, the discriminant
b2 – 4ac = (-6)2 – 4(2)(3)
= 36 – 24
= 12
So, the given equation has two distinct roots.
The roots are given by
x = \(\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4 a c}}{2 a}\)
\(=\frac{6 \pm \sqrt{12}}{2(2)}\)
\(=\frac{6 \pm 2 \sqrt{3}}{4}=\frac{3 \pm \sqrt{3}}{2}\)
Thus, the roots of the given equation are \(\frac{3+\sqrt{3}}{2}\) and \(\frac{3-\sqrt{3}}{2}\)

Question 2.
Find the values of k for each of the following quadratic equations, so that they have two equal roots:
1. 2x2 + kx + 3 = 0
2. kx (x – 2) + 6 = 0
Solution:
1. Comparing the given equation with the standard quadratic equation, we have
a = 2, b = k and c = 3.
Then, the discriminant = b2 – 4ac
= (k)2 – 4 (2) (3)
= k2 – 24
If the equation has two equal roots, then the discriminant = 0
∴ k2 – 24 = 0
∴ k2 = 24
∴ k = ±\(\sqrt{24}\)
∴ k ± 2\(\sqrt{6}\)

2. kx(x – 2) + 6 = 0
∴ kx2 – 2kx + 6 = 0
Here, a = k, b = -2k and c = 6.
Then, the discriminant = b2 – 4ac
= (-2k)2 – 4(k)(6)
= 4k2 – 24k
If the equation has two equal roots, then the discriminant = 0
∴ 4k2 – 24k = 0
∴ 4k (k – 6) = 0
∴ k = 0 or k = 6
But k = 0 is not possible because if k = 0, the equation reduces to 6 = 0, not a quadratic equation.
∴ k = 6

Question 3.
Is it possible to design a rectangular mango grove whose length is twice its breadth, and the area is 800 m2? If so, find its length and breadth.
Solution:
Considering that the required mango grove can be designed, let the breadth of the mango grove be x m.
Then, the length of the mango grove is 2x m. Area of rectangular mango grove
= Length × Breadth
= 2x × x
= 2x2 m2
The required area is 800 m2.
∴ 2x2 = 800
∴ 2x2 – 800 = 0
∴ x2 – 400 = 0
If the above equation has real roots, then it is possible to design the required mango grove.
Here, a = 1, b = 0 and c = -400.
Then, the discriminant = b2 – 4ac
= (0)2 – 4(1)(-400)
= 1600 > 0
Hence, the equation has real roots. So, it is possible to design the mango grove with required measures.
Now, x2 – 400 = 0
∴ (x + 20) (x – 20) = 0
∴ x + 20 = 0 or x – 20 = 0
∴ x = -20 or x = 20
Since x is the breadth of the rectangular mango grove, x = -20 is not possible.
∴ x = 20 and 2x = 40
Thus, the length of the mango grove is 40 m and its breadth is 20 m.

Question 4.
Is the following situation possible? If so, determine their present ages.
The sum of the ages of two friends is 20 years. Four years ago, the product of their ages in years was 48.
Solution:
Let the present ages of two friends be x years and (20 – x) years.
Four years ago, their respective ages were (x – 4) years and (20 – x – 4) years, i.e., (16 – x) years.
Then, according to given,
(x – 4) (16 – x) = 48
∴ 16x – x2 – 64 + 4x = 48
∴ -x2 + 20x – 64 – 48 = 0
∴ -x2 + 20x – 112 = 0
∴ x2 – 20x + 112 = 0
Here, a = 1, b = -20 and c = 112.
Then, the discriminant
b2 – 4ac = (-20)2 – 4(1)(112)
= 400 – 448
= -48 < 0
Hence, the equation has no real roots. So, the given situation is not possible.

Question 5.
Is it possible to design a rectangular park of perimeter 80 m and area 400 m2 ? If so, find its length and breadth.
Solution:
Let the length of the rectangular park be x m.
Perimeter of rectangular park = 2 (Length + Breadth)
∴ 80 = 2(x + Breadth)
∴ 40 = x + Breadth
∴ Breadth = (40 – x) m
Now, area of rectangular park = Length × Breadth
∴ 400 = x (40 – x)
∴ 400 = 40x – x2
∴ x2 – 40x + 400 = 0
Here, a = 1, b = -40 and c = 400.
Then, the discriminant = b2 – 4ac
= (-40)2 – 4(1)(400)
= 1600 – 1600
= 0
Hence, the equation has equal real roots. So, it is possible to design a rectangular park with given measures.
x2 – 40x + 400 = 0
∴ x2 – 20x – 20x + 400 = 0
∴ x(x – 20) – 20(x – 20) = 0
∴ (x – 20) (x – 20) = 0
∴ x – 20 = 0 or x – 20 = 0
∴ x = 20 or x = 20
Thus, the length of the rectangular park = x = 20 m and the breadth of the rectangular park = 40 – x = 40 – 20 = 20 m.
Note: Here the shape of the park turns out to be a square, but as we know, every square is a rectangle.
