C lag rha hai..
o pe root wala -ve ho rha hai so..b is out..
5 se greater pe base -ve ho rha hai so..d,a is out..
A sum was split into two equal parts. One of the parts was invested at SI for N1 years at R% p.a. The other part was invested at CI for N2 years at R% p.a. Both parts fetched the same interest. Which of the following can be concluded?
1)N1
2)N1>=N2
3)N1=N2
4)N1 not equal to N2
5)none

is it c????

c
OA = c and d are out as x cannot be 5

also taking x= 3 , the no comes out to be -negative which rules out option 2

N1>=N2

@pankaj1988 said:

logic:

either N1=N2=1 then only SI = CI

or for some year N1 > N2 SI= CI as CI increases faster than SI
@pankaj1988 said:

if number of years is 1 then SI = CI.. So then N1 = N2

otherwise CI for x years is always greater than SI for x years.. So N1 has to be greater than N2.. :)
@pankaj1988 said:

if you take 1 year then both will be same..so = ka sign..
now when n1 != n2 us case mein...
n1 ko greater hona hoga..kyunki..C.I har saal jayada hota jayega...SI same rahta hai.

N1>=N2 : CI >SI EXcept for n1=n2 = 1

SI = P*R*N1/100

CI = P(1+R/100)^N2 -P

SI=CI
P*R*N1/100 = P(1+R/100)^N2 -P
R*N1/100 = (1+R/100)^N2 -1
= 1 +N2*R/100 + N2*(N2+1)(R/100)^2 + ....... -1

=N2*R/100 + N2*(N2+1)(R/100)^2 +...........

N1 =N2 + N2*(N2+1)R/100 +..........


Clearly N1>=N2
