Vishal and Anirudh decide to meet at a cafe between 5 pm to 6pm. they agree that the person who arrives first will wait for exactly 15 mins for the other. if each of them arrives at random betwen 5 pm to 6 pm what is the probability that the meeting takes place?
.5 i think so
i will adapt.. as simple as that.. other than that ..might be starting for new season soon..

two cards are drawn from a well shuffled pack of cards one after another .wat is the probability that first frawn card is red and the second is an ace. when the cards that is drawn first is not replaced 1)29/442 2)3/104 3)6/169 4)17/442
Total cases=52*51
fav. cases: First red and non ace and second ace=24*4 First red and ace and second ace=2*3
prob=(96+6)/52*51=1/26=17/442

yes it can be written as a product of two factors in 6 ways but both factors has to be even or odd to get integer values of x and y so subtract 2 cases i.e 1 and 96 and 3 and 32
96 + y^2 = x^2..so 96= x^2-y^2 =(x+y)(x-y) 96=2^5*3..so it can be written as a product of two factors in 0.5*(5+1)*(1+1)= 6 ways..
how did you get 4.?.I guess some out of those 6 will not satisfy the criteria..

15 min?? 1/A + 1/B = 1/6 A&B; work for 4 min in which they can complete 2/3 of the work. After that B alone works for 2 min and complete (4/5 - 2/3) work So 2/B = 4/5 - 2/3 = 2/15 B = 15 mins 1/A = 1/6 - 1/15 A = 10 mins So B is slower
A&B; together complete a work in 6 min.But A works for 4 min and B works for 6 mins. After this only 1/5 work is remaining.how much time will the slowest person will take to do work all alone?
15 min??
1/A + 1/B = 1/6
A&B; work for 4 min in which they can complete 2/3 of the work. After that B alone works for 2 min and complete (4/5 - 2/3) work
So 2/B = 4/5 - 2/3 = 2/15 B = 15 mins
1/A = 1/6 - 1/15 A = 10 mins
So B is slower

keep a=b=c=1 1+1-1.6=0.4 so this means c and d cannot be ans. 6*1.4-17=-8.xx 12*1.4=16.8-17=-0.2 let a=1,b=1,c=2 7/5=1.4 4/6=0.666 16/8=2 so=0.0666 So ans. possibly A?? as a , b,c when close are near option A
Let the set S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}. Find the number of ordered pairs (A, B), where A and B are subsets of S and A is a proper subset of B. OPTIONS 1)6305 2)6561 3)4096 4)6433
Exponent of 2 in 100! = 97 Exponent of 2 in 10000! = 9995 = 103 Exponent of 97 in 100! = 1 Exponent of 97 on 10000! = 104 So, lower of 103 and 104, i.e, 103 will be the answer Namaste sabko _____/\______
Hello puys !.. Been long!... I ws out for 3 days !
A set P consists of the first 25 natural numbers. How many minimum numbers should one pick from the set P so that there is always atleast one pair (x,y) among them satisfies 3x=2y?
Shouldn't this question have 100^K*P. Then the answer we can get as 104 as 100! has 24 zeroes and 10000! has 2499 zeroes. Otherwise K can be highest as 101*102*....10000
10000! = (100!)^K P, where P and K are integers. What can be the maximum value of K?
p.s - Warm up question :)

Right if C=3, then (1) - (2) and (2) - (3) becomes identical lines in X-Z plane. Then the point of intersection of all three lines will come out to be a single point. Whereas if C 3 then (1) - (2) and (2)-(3) will become parallel lines in X-Z plane. That will give two distinct point of inters...

Whereas if C
3 then (1) - (2) and (2)-(3) will become parallel lines in X-Z plane. That will give two distinct point of intersection of all the three lines. So (x,y,z) will have two values. So ans should be C

I think it's 3 Approach: Sum of all the three equations is 6x + 3y + 9z = 9+C On dividing the equation by 3,it becomes 2x + y + 3z = 3 + C/3 so,when C takes 3,the system of equations have no solution P.S: I hope the AIMCAT window is over by now;) and Let me know if the answer is w...
341. Mrs. Carson took a taxi to meet her three friends for lunch. They were waiting for her outside the restaurant when she pulled up in the car. She was so excited to see her friends that she left her tote bag in the taxi. As the taxi pulled away, she and her friends took notice of the license plate number so they would be able to identify the car when they called the taxi company. The four license plate numbers below represent what each of the four women thinks she saw.Which one is most likely the license plate number of the taxi? a. JXK 12L b. JYK 12L c. JXK 12I d. JXX 12L 342. Zachary has invited his three buddies over to watch the basketball game on his wide-screen television. They are all hungry, but no one wants to leave to get food. Just as they are arguing about who should make the food run, a commercial comes on for a local pizzeria that delivers. The phone number flashes on the screen briefly and they all try to remember it. By the time Zachary grabs a pen and paper, each of them recollects a different number. Which of the numbers is most likely the telephone number of the pizzeria? a. 995-9266 b. 995-9336 c. 995-9268 d. 995-8266
My takes in BOLD

Hello neetu ji....seemed pretty obvious to me too ...but herez the twister. 10000! = (100!)K P, where P and K are integers. What can be the maximum value of K? =>options for the questions are a. 104 b. 103 c. 102 d. 105 :)
It's simple logic..see the question is asked for 'most likely',and NOT the exact detail From the options of first question,J is only possible option for 1st character For the 2nd character,3 persons remember it as X,so it's more likely than Y |ly K is more likely than X,12 is the on...
Is n't this but obvious. p=1 k = 10000*9999*.....................101 Let a,b and c be the positive real numbers. Determine the minimum value of (a+3c)/(a+2b+c) + 4b/(a+b+2c) -8c/(a+b+3c) Options: A. 122-17 B. 62-17 C. 122+17 D. 62+17

I won't run on Sunday even if it's 100m event in Olympic games
if x=-4 then g(x^2+4x-4)=g(4) and not g(-4) how cum u made it g(-4)...???? LOL...SRY IT WAS THE STUPIDEST DOUBT ONE CAN EVER ASK..:p M OUT OF MY MIND I GUESS..!
