4 ??

....

yes 4 hi hai but process kya hai

Theory on mixture allegations plz

Especially the concept of Removal and replacement?

10 hai kya ?? not very sure ..

20x + k = 23(x-n) + n = 21x + 500
=> x + 500 = k

first and third eqns me replace x by the given 4 values , only 10 satisfies

Bhai answer is 13

Is the value of m :65?

I got m as 202 ;

consider 1st sequence of consecutive numbers as a , ..... , a+m
2nd sequence a' , ..... ,a'+2m

as difference between maximums is 99
a'+2m - a-m =99 ;----- (1)

sum of n terms in ap = (n/2)*;

by applying for both the sequences

2a+m=4;---- (2)
2a'+2m=1----- (3)


by solving (1)(2)&(3)

i got m as 202 .

did you find anything wrong in it ??

2/3 *(pi)*r^2 * h = 718 2/3
Base of cone covers one side of cube, h = 2r

So, radius will come out to be 7
Cube : 14x14x14
Cone : radius = 7, height = 14

Now, calculate...

2/3 or 1/3 ???!!
thank you very much anyway !!

Madan is going from Mumbai to Delhi in order to join a new job there. He has a glass memento of right
circular conic shape under his possession and he does not want it to break during transportation. So,
he purchases a cubic metal box from the market spending Rs. 500. The cone is exactly fitted in the
metal cube in such a way that while the edges of the base of the cone are touching the edges of all the
sides of the cube, the vertex of it touches the opposite face of he cube After inserting the memento in
the box, he packed the metal box from outside with wallpaper costing Rs. 1.5 per sq cm. Given that the
volume of the glass memento is 718 2/3 cc, mark all the correct statements

a. Madan had incurred total expenditure of Rs. 2,264 on the metal box.
b. Madan had incurred an expenditure of Rs. 1,754 on packing the metal box.
c. The area of any one side of the metal box is 196 sq. cm
d. The volume of the metal box is 2,644 cc.

Laxman and Bharat decide to go from Agra to Delhi for watching a cricket match and board two
different trains for that purpose. While Laxman takes the first train the leaves for Delhi, Bharat decides
to wait for some time and take a faster train. On the way, Laxman sitting by the window-seat noticed
that the train boarded by Bharat crossed him in 12 seconds. Now the faster train can travel 180 km in
three hours, while the slower train takes twice as much time to do it. Given this, mark all the correct
options.

a. If the faster train has taken 30 seconds to cross the entire length of the slower train, the
difference between the lengths of the two trains is 50 m.

b. If the faster train had been running twice as much faster, it would have taken 10 seconds to
overtake the slower train.

c. Had the faster train taken 24 seconds to cross the entire length of the slower train, the length of
the slower train would have been 100 m.

d. If the slower train had been running at one and a half times of its current speed, the faster train
would have taken 24 seconds to overtake Laxman.

ans A & C......

Important : PM AB
Now, OPQ = S, So, OPM = 2S
AO:OM = 2:1

So, APO = 4S

So, AMP = 6S
And hence, AMC = 12S
And, ABC = 24S

P.S.: how is OPQ = S ??

what does the bold part represent ?

The red # is the blank space, So, we will have 5 place where we have to adjust 12 cars, such that between any two #, there is atleast one car!

No Adjacent space :
a + b + c + d + e = 9
where a and e can be 0, but b,c,d can be minimum '1'

Ways = C(13,4) = 715

Total ways = C(16,12)

Probability of no adjacent = 715/C(16,12) = 11/28
Probability she can park = 1-11/28 = 17/28

A parking lot has 16 spaces in a row. Twelve cars arrive, each of which requires one parking space, and their drivers chose spaces at random from among the available spaces. Auntie Em then arrives in her SUV, which requires 2 adjacent spaces. What is the probability that she is able to park?

a)137/280 b)143/280 c)17/28 d)11/28 e)None of these

No Adjacent space :
a + b + c + d + e = 12(edit)
where a and e can be 0, but b,c,d can be minimum '1'

Ways = C(13,4) = 715

Total ways = C(16,12)

Probability of no adjacent = 715/C(16,12) = 11/28
Probability she can park = 1-11/28 = 17/28

A right angled triangle ABC is right angled at B. The point of contact of the incircle with the hypotenuse, divides it, in the ratio 3:2. If the perimeter of the triangle is 36 cm, find the inradius.


sannata kyun hai bhai ?! :O

Without pen/paper, don't mind if wrong...
inradius = r
(5x)^2 = (3x+r)^2 + (2x+r)^2
Or, 12x^2 = 10xr + 2r^2
Or, 6x^2 - 5xr - r^2 = 0
Or, x = r, -r/6

So, 10x+2r = 36
Or, r = 3

i dont have the oa , but i think first case me aisa nahi hona chahiye = 1 blue , 0 red in bag 1..and 9 blue, 5 red in bag 2 ??

aur second wale me bhi 1 red , 0 blue in bag 1 .... and 4 red , 10 blue in bag 2

i think these would give better probablilty as per conditions . ??

a man has 5 red and 10 blue balls . he needs to distribute them in 2 bags such that the
1) probability of drawing red is minimum
2) probability of drawing red is maximum
how should he distribute ? given that no bag can be empty

1)5 red and 9 blue in 1 bag & 1 blue in other
2)5 red in 1 bag and 10 blue in another

Consider a function f(k) defined for positive integers k = 1, 2, . The function satisfies the condition , where p is a fraction, i.e. 0 < p < 1. Then f(k) is given by

f(k) = p^k (k=1 to inf) kinda gp. 0

f(1004) = 1004 -3 = 1001 ... not f(1001)

2 f ko single f mein change kar to diya................

1) 7^11^13^17

We need to find 11^13^17 (mod 4) = (-1)^odd (mod 4) = 3 (mod 4)

So, last digit will be 3

2) 2^1990
Euler's number for 199 is 198

=> 2^198 = 1 (mod 199)
=> 2^1980 = 1 (mod 199)
=> 2^1990 = 2^10 (mod 199)

Now, last digit of 2^1990 and 2^10 are same hence
2^1990 = 2^10 (mod 10)

=> 2^1990 = 2^10 (mod 1990)

sir apne 5 se kyu ni kiya
199 k ilawa..................
