The formula to find number of diagonals (D) given total number of vertices or sides (N) is
N * (N – 3)
D = ———–
2
Using the formula, we get
1325 * 2 = N * (N – 3)
N2 – 3N – 2650 = 0
Solving the quadratic equation, we get N = 53 or -50
It is obvious that answer is 53 as number of vertices can not be negative.
Alternatively, you can derive the formula as triange has 0 diagonals, quadrangel has 2, pentagon has 5, hexagon has 9 and so on……
Hence the series is 0, 0, 0, 2, 5, 9, 14, …….. (as diagram with 1,2 or 3 vertices will have 0 diagonals).
Using the series one can arrive to the formula given above.
The definition of left and right depends on the observer and
is reversed when facing the opposite direction. The
definition of up and down does not depend on the orientation
of the observer.
exactly
Initially (2*33 + 1*24)/(2+1) = 30p a gm
So, cost for 100g = 100*30 = 3000p
Later, (1*33 + 2*24)/(1+2) = 71/3 p a gm.
So, cost for 100g = 100*(71/3) = 2366.67p
He saves 3000 – 2366.67 = 633.33p
Concept of weighted average.
First write equations from info:
(A) (Mon + Tue + Wed)/3 = 111 Rearrange as ——–> Tue + Wed = 111 – Mon
(B) (Tue + Wed + Thu)/3 =102 Rearrange as ——–> Tue + Wed = 102 – Thu
(C) Thu = 0.8(Mon)
Substitute equation C into B:
(B) Tue + Wed = 102 – 0.8(Mon)
At this point I changed the values for clearer algebra:
Mon = x
Tue + Wed = y
Re-write equations A & B with new values:
(A) y = 111 – x
(B) y = 102 – 0.8x
Solve simultaneous equations:
111 – x = 102 – 0.8x
111 – 102 = x – 0.8x (Re-arraged)
9 = 0.2x
x = 45
Thus, Mon = 45C
Thu = 0.8(45)
Thu = 36C
So the answer is it was 36C on Thursday
Answer: C
Explanation:
900 — 100
100 — ? => 100/900*100 => 11.11%
