1) The water from one outlet, flowing at a constant rate, can fill the swimming pool in 9 hours. The waoutlet, flowing at a constant rate can fill up the same pool in approximately in 5 hours. If both the outlethe same time, approximately what is the number of hours required to fill the pool?

ans: (1/A) + (1/B) = 1/TSo when you solved, and got 14/45, that was equal to 1/T. To find T, you need to take the reciprocal; T(3.21)u2) If 75 % of a class answered the first question on a certain test correctly, 55 percent answered the secon the test correctly, and 20 percent answered neither of the questions correctly, what percentage answcorrectly?

ans: n(a ^ b) =n(a)+n(b)-n(a v b)= 0.75+0.55-0.8= 0.5(50%)

6) A closed cylindrical tank contains 36 pie cubic feet of water and its filled to half its capacity. When placed upright on its circular base on level ground, the height of water in the tank is 4 feet. When the ton its side on level ground, what is the height, in feet, of the surface of the water above the ground?

ans: What given Volume = 36Height = 4ftVolume = Pi* r2 * h36 = Pi*r2 * 4r2 =9r = 3So the radius is 3 which means the diameter is 6.

7) The present ratio of students to teachers at a certain school is 30 to 1. If the student enrollment wereby 50 students and the number of teachers were to increase by 5, the ratio of the teachers would then bWhat is the present number of teachers?

ans: 30/1 = s/t Current student to teacher ratios+50/t+5 = 25/1 Future student to teacher ratiosolving the first equation first equation for s gives s = 30t.Substitute this value of s into the second equation, and solve for t.s+50/t+5 = 25/130t + 50 = 25t + 125 multiply both sides by t+55t = 75 simplify by subtraction

t = 15(15)

34 There are two boxes,one containing 39 red balls & the other containing 26 green balls.you are allowthe balls b/w the boxes so that when you choose a box random & a ball at random from the chosen boxprobability of getting a red ball is maximized.this maximum probability isa)60 b)50 c)80 d)30

the probability of getting a red ball should be maximized so we will keep 1 red ball in the first box andremaining 38 red balls to other box which has green. The reason for doing this only this combination wprobability of getting red ball is maximum (i.e) 1.In the question its mentioned that first we have to choose a box at random.So 2 boxes are there, probability of selecting a bag is 1/2Probability of getting red ball from first box is 1Probability of getting green ball from second box is 38/64So (1/2)*1 for first box and (1/2)*(38/64) for box 2answer is (1/2)*1 + ((1/2)*(38/64) which is approximately 0.8Next number in the given series 1, 7, 8, 49, 50, 56, 57, 343344 because1*7=77+1-87*7=4949+1=508*7=5656+1=5749*7=343343+1=344ans= 344q.1 in how many ways can 3 postcards can be posted in 5 postboxes?

35 A number has exactly 3 prime factors, 125 factors of this number are perfect squares and 27 factors


9/22

number are perfect cubes. overall how many factors does the number have???Answer for this question is 729The explanation goes like thisLet a,b,c be three prime no.since the no. of perfect square as a factor is 125

which can only be if every prime no. has power in the multiple of 2 including zeros(bcoz any no. to theis a perfect square)so power must be 0,2,4,6,8thereby 5*5*5=125Since no. of cube as a factor is 27therefore power in the prime no. will be in the multiple of 3so power are 0,3,6hence the no. N=a^8*b^8*c^8hence total no. of factor is (8+1)(8+1)(8+1)=729there r three buckets..of 8,5 n 3 litres...out of which only 8 ltr bucket is fully filled...u hv to fill exact 4-and 5 litre bucket by using only these buckets in minimm num of steps......8ltr 5ltr 3ltr initially 8 0 0step1 3 5 0step2 3 2 3step3 6 2 0step4 6 0 2step5 1 5 2step 6 1 4 3step 7 4 4 0total 7 steps

47 Roy is now 4 year older than Erik and half of that amount than Lewis.If in two years Roy will be twErick,then in two year what would be Roy age multiplied by Lewis age??ans is 48 firstly two equation from 1st sentence ..suppose roy=x, erik=y, lewis=zso x=y+4....(1)2nd is x=z+2...(2) (Roy is now 4 year older than Erik and half of that amount than Lewis so 4/2=2)also after 2 years erik and roy relation wil bx+2=2(y+2).. (3)so put this into 1st equ. u will get y=2..and then x=6,z=4(by substituting other)nw asking multiplication after two years of roy n lewis is (6+2)*(4+2)=48..if there are maximum acute angles then how many convex hectagons are there there can be max 3 acut

Of cubes to make it hollow of samTo make the 5*5*5 hollow, the inner cubic part must be removed. This would constitute one cube eachfront,back,top,bottom,left and right ! Since the 5*5*5 is made up of 1*1*1 cubes, 3*3*3 cubes (i.e. 5-2have to be removed to make it hollow with the shape retained. 27 cubes would be removed, remaining1) if 3y + x > 2 and x + 2ylet 3y+x=2y+2y+x=22y+x=2-y(ans)3y > 2 -x2y > 4/3 - 2x/3x+2y > 4/3 + x/3x + 2y > 1/3(4 + x)

4 Tim and Elan are 90 km from each other, they start to move each other simultaneously, Tim at speed 5kmph, if every hour they double their speed what is the distance that Tim will pass until he meet ElanTim and Elan will cover the distance in ratio of 2: 1 in same time.so out of 90 kms, Tim will travel 60 kms and Elan will travel 30 mtrs.

he length and breadth of a field is 300x400ft,if there are 3 ants on average per square inch of field,findapproximate number of ants in fieldas 300 ft=3600 inch and 400 ft=4800 inch.then area in sqr inch=172800001 sqr inch need 3 ant hence 17280000 sqr inch need 3*17280000 ants..diagonal of a square is double the side of an equilateral triangle find the ratio of area of triangle to arelet sides of equilateral triangle be 'a', therefore area= 3/4 * a^2

now, diagonal of square is 2a therefore sides of square will be 2*a and area of square = 2 a^2

hence, ratio = (3/4* a^2)/(2* a^2) answer = 3/8

The meaning of this question is little complicated. In easy language the question should be:

6 There are some points in the plane. We have to make a separation between these points by forming aa way that one point could be separate from the others. No 3 points are in a line. Maximum no of meth

the line and minimum no of methods for plotting the line will be (arrangement of points is your choice

Now Answer Is:

For Maximize: The number of methods, Points should be drawn in the circumference of the CIRCLE Swould be the number of total point in the plane.

For minimize: The number of methods we should draw 3 points in a TRIANGLE and all other point inin such a way that no 3 points could be in a line.

If it will be allowed to draw the points in a line then minimum possibilities will be 2 only, because if win a line then you can separate only the corner points from the others.

For exampleIf we have 10 points then maximum possibilities = 10and minimum = 3

similarly for 5 pointsMax = 5, Min = 3

for 19

max= 19 Min = 3f(x)=f(f(x))=f(x^2)....how many such functions with degree >2 existdoes not exist....In a sequence of integers, A(n)=A(n-1)-A(n-2),where A(n) is the nth term in the sequence, n is an inteA(1)=1,A(2)=1. Calculate S(1000), where S(1000) is the sum of first 1000 terms.check it nowA(1)=1,A(2)=1.A(3)=A(2)-A(1) acc to the given formula A(n)=A(n-1)-A(n-2)A(3)=1-1=0.similarliy,A(4)=A(3)-A(2)=0-1=-1.A(5)=A(4)-A(3)=-1-0=-1.A(6)=A(5)-A(4)=-1-(-1)=0.after 6th term seq is repeating like...1,1,0,-1,-1,0...after every 6 termsso the sum of these 6 terms are 1+1+0+(-1)+(-1)+0=0.now we have to find sum of 1000 terms...sum of first 600 terms is 0...(as consider 1,1,0,-1,-1,0 as one sequence,now consider 166 seq i.e 166*6=so the sum of first 996 terms is 0...after that 4 terms come i.e 1,1,0,-1so the sum of last 4 terms = 1+1+0+(-1)=1.
