ans: 250 rs exactly
1/4E(E decreses by 4 times)
= 100 + 100 = 200 m
Time taken by train = 10 sec.
∵ Speed = Distance/Time
⇒ Speed of train = 200/10 = 20 m/sec.
∴ Speed of train = 20 × 18/5 = 72 kmph.
In question they left 10 seconds
Answer: 10
Reason:
The best case happens ONLY when each rat dies just as they
taste the FIRST bottle given to them (you can imagine it a
miracle 😀 )
In this case, the very first 10 attempts reveal the
poisonous bottles. So the answer is 10.
speed of the train respect to man
= (63 – 3) km/hr
= 60 km/hr
= 60 * 1000 / 3600 m/sec
= 50/3 m/sec
time
= distance/speed
= 500 * 3/ 50
= 30 sec
Let ‘x’ be the number of perons in the group and let ‘y’ be
amount per head which they have to pay.
Then xy = 2400.
or y = 2400/x
Since two friends have forget the purse, x-2 persons should
share the total amount(2400).
If they share, they have to make an extra contribution of
Rs 100 to pay up the bill
That is x-2 persons should pay y+100 each
or (x-2)(y+100) = 2400
or y+100 = 2400/(x-2)
or y = 2400/(x-2) – 100
Therefore we have got two equations namely,
y= 2400/x and y = 2400/(x-2) – 100
Comparing these two, we get
2400/x = 2400/(x-2) – 100
Solving this we get
x^2 – 2x -48 = 0
or (x-8) (x+6) = 0
or x = 8 or x = -6
Since ‘x’ denote the number of persons, it should be
positive.
So, x = 8.

LET ACTUAL PRICE BE 100 RS(FOR CONVINIENCE)
THEREFORE IF PRICE IS CUT BY 20%
THEREFORE NEW PRICE=100-20=80 RS
THEREFORE WE NEED TO ADD X% TO 80 RS TO MAKE IT 20 RS AND ADD IT TO 80 TO MAKE IT 100RS
THEREFORE, 80X/100 = 20
I.E. 4X/5=20
THEREFORE x=20*5/4
=5*5
=25
HENCE 25% OF PRICE SHOULD BE ADDED TO MAKE THE PRICE EQUAL TO THE ACTUAL PRICE.
(x**2 – 6* x + 5) = (x-1)*(x-5)
(x**2 + 2 * x + 1) = (x + 1) * (x+1) = (x+1)**2
For what x is (x-1)*(x-5)/( (x+1)**2) a minimum?
One way to answer this question is by using calculus.
Take the derivative, and set to zero.
Since this is a fraction of polynomials, and a fraction is
zero only if it’s numerator is zero, we need calculate only
the numerator of the derivative and set it to zero.
The numerator of the
Derivative of (x-1)*(x-5)/( (x+1)**2) is
( (x-1) + (x-5) ) ( x+1)**2 – (x-1)(x-5)( 2 (x+1) )
= (2 x – 6) (x+1)**2 – (2) (x-1)(x-5) (x+1)
= 0
Divide through by 2 (x+1)
(x-3)(x+1) – (x-1)(x-5) = 0
(x**2 – 2 x – 3 ) – (x**2 – 6 x + 5) = 0
x**2 – x**2 – 2 x + 6 x – 3 – 5 = 0
4 x – 8 = 0
x = 2
Plugging in x = 2 into the original
(x**2-6*x+5)/(x**2+2*x+1)
gives us (2**2 – 6 * 2 + 5)/(2**2 + 2*2 + 1)
= (4 – 12 + 5) / (4 + 4 + 1) = -3/9 = -1/3
Least value is -1/3
Very great things your doing
