Assertion (A): When each side of a square is increased by 5 cm, its area increases by 75 sq. cm. The side of the square is 5 cm.
Reason (R):

⇒ (x+5)2 = x2 + 75 ⇒ x = 5cm

Assertion (A): The mean of 5 observations is 30. On excluding one of these observations, the mean of the remaining observation is increased to 31. The excluded observation is
= 5 x 30 - 4 x 31 = 150 - 124 = 26
