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
Ques:- A county cricket team has won 10 matches and lost 4. If these matches represent 70% of the matches to be played, how many more matches should the team win so as to have a record of 75% wins?
Recent Answer : Added by DK BOSS On 2021-07-17 06:18:54:
Let the total number of matches to played in the tournament be ‘x’.
Given that A county cricket team has won 10 matches and lost 4.
That means total number of matches played = 14.
So,
= > 70% of x = 14
= > (70/100) * x = 14
= > 70x = 1400
= > x = 20.
So, the number of matches to be played = 20.
They have a record of exactly 75% wins = 20 * 75/100
= > 15.
Therefore, the number of matches should the team win = 15 – 10 = 5.
Hope this helps!

Recent Answer : Added by shivangi sharma On 2022-08-14 16:42:35:
the ratio of present age of x:y is 5:6
And,we have to find the present age of x.
so,the present age of X is definitely will be multiple of 5.
X=35
so,35 is the answer.

Ques:- Two passenger trains start at the same hour in the day from two different stations and move towards each other at the rate of 16 kmph and 21 kmph respectively. When they meet, it is found that one train has traveled 60 km more than the other one. The distance between the two stations is?
Recent Answer : Added by Rudradeb Biswas On 2021-08-16 05:26:57:
444km
Since the speed diff is 5km/h
It takes 12 hrs to cover 60 extra kms
Therefore in 12 hrs the total dist covered is
Relative speed×time=(21+16)×12=444 kms

Recent Answer : Added by DK BOSS On 2021-07-17 06:18:40:
the answer is At 9:48 PM
At 1:00 pm the difference between A & B = 8 km
after 2:00 pm ………………. = 11 km (as B’s speed
is 1 and A’s 4 km, then eqv speed=(4-1)=3 km)
After 3:00………………….. = 13 km (as B’s speed 2 km)
After 4:00………………….. = 14 km
after 5:00………………….. = 14 km (A’s speed= B’s
speed)
after 6:00………………….. = 13 km
after 7:00………………….. = 11 km
after 8:00………………….. = 8 km
after 9:00………………….. = 4 km
and now the eqv speed is= (9-4) =5 km/hr;
and the renaming distance is 4 km;
then, time=(60*4)/5=48 min;
then the meeting time is=9:00+48 min=9:48 pm;

Ques:- Explain the difference between group and team. Are you a team player?
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
