Highest possible marks : 60
Lowest possible marks : -20
So a total off 80 x 3+1=241 possible scores but scores such as 59+2/3, 59 + 1/3 and 58 + 1/3 are not possible to get Hence , 241 - 3 = 238 possibilities.
Q-20
solution please.
what is the difference between 1st and 4th option?
solve Q20.
Find the last three digits of 79999
The quicker way to calculate last three digits of a number is to calculate the remainder by 1000.
1000 = 125 x 8
79999/8 = (-1)9999 = -1 or 7.
79999/125
Phi(125) = 100
7100k gives a remainder of 1 when divided by 125 .
so 710000 gives the remainder 1.
Lets say 79999 gives remainder R when divided by 125.
So , 79999 x 7 /125 => 1
7R/125 => 1
R = 18.
Using Chinese Remainder Theorem:
125a + 18 = 8b + 7 gives 143.
To win the game A has to leave exactly one coin on the table so that B has to pick it up and would lose the game .
So A make his strategy to remove 9 coins from the table
So , 9 - 4 - 4 i.e 1 coin.
if u leave pick matchstick there is chance that other player will get chance to leave one coin for u. .. yes i don't know the ans but 1 can't be the ans this is certainly true
the maximum possible value of y = min(1/2 - 3x^2/4 , 5x^2/4) for the range 0<x<1 is ? (cat 1993)
a. 1/3
b. 1/2
c. 5/27
d. 5/ 16
Hello Tina,
Please find the solution,
r + (1/r) = 2007 + (1/2007) and
s + (1/s) = 2006 + (1/2006)
=> r = 2007 or (1/2007) and
s = 2006 or (1/2006)
We can verify these results by solving the two quadratic equations also
2007r2 - (20072 + 1)r + 2007 = 0 and
2006s2 - (20062 + 1)s + 2006 = 0
Now (r - s) is maximum when r is maximum and s is smallest.
So (r - s)maximum = rmax - smin = 2007 - (1/2006) = (4026041/2006) = 2006.9999
Hello, sir please solve this questions.
If x + 1 = x2 and x > 0, then 2x4 is:
Hi Tina,
x + 1 = x2
x2 – x – 1 =0
x=(1+sqrt(1+4))/2
x = (1+sqrt5)/2
x2 =(6 + 2sqrt5)/4
x2 =(3+sqrt5)/2
x4 =(14+6sqrt5)/4
x4 =(7+3sqrt5)/2
2x4 =7+ 3sqrt5
Thanks abhi i got the same equation, and i just got the solution
This question is my doubt from copy cat 03-
A box contains 300 matches , Rahul and Sachin take turns removing no more than half the matches in the box. The player who cannot move looses. What should be Rahul's first move to ensure his win if he is starting the game?
If f(x) = (x-1)/(x-2), what is f invesrse (4) ?
f(x) = ( x - 1)/( x - 2)
y =( x - 1 )/(x -2)
yx - 2y = x - 1
yx - x = 2y - 1
x ( y-1) = 2y -1
x = (2y -1)/( y-1)
f-1(x) = (2x -1 )/( x -1)
f-1(4) = (8 -1)/( 4-1)= 7/3
Hello sir , this is a doubt from copycat 05 , please explain the solution of this problem -
Find the sum of the given infinite series : 3 + 5/(1+22 ) + 7/(1+22+32) +..............
In miscellaneous type of series find nth term and than try to solve ..
Series can be written as
(1-2/3) + (2/3-2/5) + (2/5-2/7) + (2/7-2/9) + (2/9-2/11)
= 1-2/11
= 9/11 option (4)
a , ar , ar2 , ar3 , ar4 , …..
a + ar = 15
a ( 1 +r) = 15
a = 15/ ( 1+ r) …. (1)
Now ,
3(ar + ar2 + ar3 + ar4 +….) = a
3 [ar / (1-r)] = a
1 - r = 3r
r = ¼
from (1)
a = 12
Sum of the series : a , ar , ar2 , ar3 , ar4 , …..
a / ( 1 –r) = 12 ( 1-1/3) = 16
