Recent Answer : Added by Ankit Aditya Mishra On 2022-05-17 09:07:22:

ANSWER is ==> 1

1st step : 0.5
2nd step : 0.5+0.05 = 0.55
3rd step : 0.55+0.10 = 0.65
4th step : 0.65+0.15 = 0.8
5th step : 0.80+0.20 = 1.00

Ques:- A man rows to a place 48 km distant and come back in 14 hours. He finds that he can row 4 km with the stream in the same time as 3 km against the stream. The rate of the stream is:
Recent Answer : Added by shashank chourasiya On 2022-03-09 16:42:05:

Hint: Assume that the speed of the stream is x and the speed of the boat in still water is x. From the statement of the question form two equations in two variables x and y. This system is reducible to linear equations in two variables. Reduce the system to a system of linear equations in two variables by proper substitutions. Solve the system of equations using any one of the methods like Substitution method, elimination method, graphical method or using matrices. Hence find the value of x satisfying both the equation. The value of x will be the speed of the stream.
Complete step-by-step answer:
Let the speed of the stream be x, and the speed of the boat in still water be y.
We have the speed of the boat upstream = y-x.
Speed of the boat downstream = y+ x.
Now since it takes 14 hours to reach a place at a distance of 48 km and come back, we have the sum of the times taken to reach the place downstream and time taken to return back upstream is equal to 14.
Now, we know that time =Distance speed
Using, we get
Time taken to reach the place =48y+x and the time taken to return back =48y−x.
Hence, we have
48y+x+48y−x=14
Dividing both sides by 2, we get
24y+x+24y−x=7 —–(i)
Also, the time taken to cover 4km downstream is equal to the time taken to cover 3km upstream.
Hence, we have 4y+x=3y−x
Transposing the term on RHS to LHS, we get
4y+x−3y−x=0 ——– (ii)
Put 1y+x=t and 1y−x=u, we have
24t+24u=7 ——-(iii)4t−3u=0 ——–(iv)
Multiplying equation (iv) by 6 and subtracting from equation (iii), we get
24t−24t+24u+18u=7⇒42u=7
Dividing both sides by 42, we get
u=742=16
Substituting the value of u in equation (iv), we get
4t−3(16)=0⇒4t−12=0
Adding 12 on both sides, we get
4t=12
Dividing both sides by 4, we get
t=18
Reverting to original variables, we have
1y+x=18 and 1y−x=16
Taking reciprocals on both sides in both equations, we have
y+ x=8 ——- (v)y−x=6 ——–(vi)
Adding equation (v) and equation (vi), we get
2y=14
Dividing both sides by 2, we get
y=7.
Substituting the value of y in equation (v), we get
7+x=8
Subtracting 7 from both sides we get
x = 8-7 =1
Hence the speed of the stream is 1 km/hr.

Ques:- On a sunny morning, a greengrocer places 200 kilograms of cucumbers in cases in front of his shop. At that moment, the cucumbers are 99% water. In the afternoon, it turns out that it is the hottest day of the year, and as a result, the cucumbers dry out a little bit. At the end of the day, the greengrocer has not sold a single cucumber, and the cucumbers are only 98% water. How many kilograms of cucumbers has the greengrocer left at the end of the day?

Ques:- If a boat is moving in upstream with velocity of 14 km/hr and goes downstream with a velocity of 40 km/hr, then what is the speed of the stream ?(a) 13 km/hr(b) 26 km/hr(c) 34 km/hr(d) none of these
Recent Answer : Added by DRS On 2022-08-14 16:31:31:

Speed of Stream = 1/2 (Downstream Speed – Upstream Speed)
=1/2(40-14)
=1/2(26)
=13km/h
method 2:
for down stream case :speed=Boat speed + Stream speed
for up stream case :speed=Boat speed – Stream speed

therefore, Bs + Ss =40
Bs – Ss =14
(-) (-) (-)
———————
2Ss=26
Ss=26/2 = 13Km/h
Stream speed= 13Km/hr

Ques:- Ram was travailing back from his friend house in his old ambassador. He could only travel along at a steady 30 miles per hr and managed a paltry 20 miles per litere of fuel. At the start of the journey he has placed exactly 10 litre of fuel into a tank. He knew though that the fuel tank lost fuel at the rate of half a liter per hhour. As ram arrived home the car stopped because it had run out of a fuel and h only just made it. How far was his friends house from rams. a.200 b.150 3.210 d170
Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2020-05-17 12:04:12:

Ans 200
that he will lost 1.5 ltr in an hour
so he will lost that 10 ltr in 10/1.5=6.67hour
distance travelled in 6.67 hour is=30*6.67=200 km
