28
to arrange m objects in n places => nCm
i.e. for this example m=2(+,- sign) and n = 8(places between two number from 1 to 9)
SO, answer is : 8C2 = (8*7) / 2 = 28

Out of 10 persons, 4 are graduates; so, (10 – 4) = 6 are under-graduates.

If there is no restriction, any three can be chosen from the ten in (10C3) = 120 ways.

Now, if all three chosen are under-graduates; it can take place in (6C3) = 20 ways.

Therefore, the probability that there will be no graduate among the three chosen = (20 / 120) = (1 / 6).

Therefore, the probability that there will be at least one graduate among the three chosen = {1 – (1 / 6)} = (5 / 6) = 0.8333.

C. Monday
A year has 52 weeks and every week has 7 days.
We just add up one day to the present day of the year and that would automatically act as the day of the next year.
In case of leap years in between, one extra day gets added in the entire year making it 366 days instead of 365 days in an ordinary year and we add two days in that case.

D) DEQJQM
Ans: A)

we know,
area=b*h
b gets increased by 20% i.e (b+0.20b)
h gets decreased by 20% i.e (h-0.20h)
rewriting the equation(area=b*h),
area=(b+0.20b)*(h-0.20h)
area=b(1+0.20)*h(1-0.20)
area=b(1.20)*h(0.80)
area=b*h*(1.20)*(0.80)
area=b*h*(0.96)
i.e new area=0.96 times the original area
if 100% was the original area,it has decreased to 96%
so,100%-96%= 4%
