From the port to the perticular distance is L.
So from simple maths, You can say that if?(I+H) mph distance can cover in 1 hour, then l distace cancover by L/(I+H) hours. -

Answer is 0.5% bcoz...take n=100?then?memory m=sqrt(100n)=sqrt(10000)=100Increase n by 1% thenn=101?then memory m=sqrt(100n)=sqrt(10100)=100.5then memory will be increased by 0.5%

The temperature at Mumbai is given by the function: -t2/6+4t+12 where t is the elapsed time since midnight. What is the percentage rise (or fall) in temperature between 5.00PM and 8.00PM?
pravesh28
- Feb 27th, 2010
ans is 16 percentlet T eqals = -t^2/6+4*t+12 ( where t is elapsed time)rate of change in temp. eqals dT/dtdat is -4t^2-36t/(18+4*T)^2here time elapsed is 3putting the value t eqal 3we get 144/900so percentade change(144/900)*100ans 16 percent

ans is 60 benches
let x=no of benches
y=no of students per bench
given
x*y=600,---------(1)
and given that 10 benches are less hence 2 students are seated more than per bench then
600=(x-10)*(y+2)
600=xy+2x-10y-20------------(2)
since xy=600
then eq(2) is
2x-10y=20
2x-10(600/x)=20
on solving
we get x=60prititripathi
- Feb 25th, 2011
Given a*b=600& (a-10)*(b+2)=600ab-10b+2a-20=600we knw ab=600so 2a-10b=202a-10*600/a=20solve quadratic eq. we get a=60 b=10

10*60=60012*50=600it means per bench 10 student requirs 60 benches.but 10 are less so that on 50 benches to accomodate 12 per bench. it means 2 more to be seated on each bench. so the answer is 60.

Selling a car gains 25% on SP. What %gain on CP?
A) 15b) 25c) 33.33d) 47.5
Nagaiahgari Balaji
- Nov 3rd, 2009
Answer: 33.33%
If suppose sp is 100% (assume)
Then gain % is 25%..
Then subtract it from sp we will get cp i.e 100-25=75%.
We know two basic formulas %gain=(gain/cp)*100 . or %loss=(loss/cp)*100.
So %gain=(25/75)*100=33.33

amrittandon88

Let SP be 100so 25 is the profit nowso 75 is the CPso (25/75)*100=33.33% is the gain on CP

Bus
A non stop bus to Amritsar overtakes an auto also moving towards Amritsar at 10 am. The bus reaches Amritsar at 12.30 pm and starts on the return journey after 1 hr. On the way back it meets the auto at 2 pm. At what time the auto will reach Amritsar?
santhakumar.mit
- Aug 28th, 2010
Totally bus takes 2.30hrs to reach the Amristar.
So 1/5 of i.e 30 mins reach the one place where it met auto.
That means 4/5 of this travel by bus is 2hrs and auto is 4hrs
so2:4::1/2:x
2/4=1/2x
4x=4
x=1
so auto will reach Amirstar at 1hr.

Calculate and print the amount of money paid to each worker
A carpenter is paid a contract fee of $2000 for 3 days work. He hires 3 workers who work for 3 days at $75 a day. Calculate and print the amount of money paid to each worker, the total paid to each worker,the total paid to all workers and the amount the carpenter is left with.

The amount paid to each worker is 75 per day, total paid for each worker is 225, total paid for all workers is 675, the money left for carpenter is 1325.
levteck

Each worker get 3 times $75 for a total of $225 after three days3 workers were hired so total of all workers would cost $675the total contract was $2000 minus total labor cost $675 then $1325 remains to the carpenter.
