    Solution Given: - The ratio of the work done by 50 women to the work done by 25 men in the same time is 4:3. - 18 women and 12 men can finish a piece of work in 5 days. Step 1: Find the ratio of work done by one woman to one man Let the work done by one woman in one day be \(W\) and the work done byRead more

    Solution

    Given:
    – The ratio of the work done by 50 women to the work done by 25 men in the same time is 4:3.
    – 18 women and 12 men can finish a piece of work in 5 days.

    Step 1: Find the ratio of work done by one woman to one man

    Let the work done by one woman in one day be \(W\) and the work done by one man in one day be \(M\).
    \[ \frac{50W}{25M} = \frac{4}{3} \]
    \[ \frac{W}{M} = \frac{4}{3} \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{2}{3} \]

    Step 2: Calculate the total work done

    Total work done by 18 women and 12 men in 5 days:
    \[ \text{Total work} = (18W + 12M) \times 5 \]
    Using the ratio \(W = \frac{2}{3}M\):
    \[ \text{Total work} = \left(18 \times \frac{2}{3}M + 12M\right) \times 5 = (12M + 12M) \times 5 = 24M \times 5 = 120M \]

    Step 3: Calculate how many women can finish the work in \(20/3\) days

    Let the number of women required be \(x\). They need to do the total work in \(20/3\) days:
    \[ xW \times \frac{20}{3} = 120M \]
    Using the ratio \(W = \frac{2}{3}M\):
    \[ x \times \frac{2}{3}M \times \frac{20}{3} = 120M \]
    \[ x = \frac{120 \times 3}{\frac{2}{3} \times 20} = \frac{360}{\frac{40}{3}} = \frac{360 \times 3}{40} = 27 \]

    Conclusion

    27 women can finish the same work in \(20/3\) days.

    Solution Given: \[ x = \frac{\sqrt{\sqrt{5} + 1}}{\sqrt{\sqrt{5} - 1}} \] We need to find the value of \(5x^2 - 5x - 1\). Step 1: Simplify \(x\) Multiply the numerator and denominator by \(\sqrt{\sqrt{5} + 1}\): \[ x = \sqrt{\frac{(\sqrt{5} + 1)(\sqrt{5} + 1)}{(\sqrt{5} - 1)(\sqrt{5} + 1)}} = \sqrt{Read more

    Solution

    Given:
    \[ x = \frac{\sqrt{\sqrt{5} + 1}}{\sqrt{\sqrt{5} – 1}} \]

    We need to find the value of \(5x^2 – 5x – 1\).

    Step 1: Simplify \(x\)

    Multiply the numerator and denominator by \(\sqrt{\sqrt{5} + 1}\):
    \[ x = \sqrt{\frac{(\sqrt{5} + 1)(\sqrt{5} + 1)}{(\sqrt{5} – 1)(\sqrt{5} + 1)}} = \sqrt{\frac{(\sqrt{5} + 1)^2}{5 – 1}} = \frac{\sqrt{5} + 1}{2} \]

    Step 2: Substitute \(x\) into \(5x^2 – 5x – 1\)

    \[ 5x^2 – 5x – 1 = 5\left(\frac{\sqrt{5} + 1}{2}\right)^2 – 5\left(\frac{\sqrt{5} + 1}{2}\right) – 1 \]

    Simplify the expression:
    \[ = 5 \times \frac{(3 + \sqrt{5})}{2} – \frac{5\sqrt{5} – 5 – 2}{2} \]
    \[ = \frac{15 + 5\sqrt{5} – 5\sqrt{5} – 7}{2} \]
    \[ = \frac{8}{2} \]
    \[ = 4 \]

    Conclusion

    The value of \(5x^2 – 5x – 1\) is 4.

    Buying the Article: - The merchant buys using a 125 gram weight instead of 100 grams. This means he gets 25% more of the article for the same price. So, the cost price per 100 grams is effectively \(\frac{100}{125} = 0.8\) times the original cost price. Selling the Article: - The merchant sells usinRead more

    Buying the Article:

    – The merchant buys using a 125 gram weight instead of 100 grams. This means he gets 25% more of the article for the same price. So, the cost price per 100 grams is effectively \(\frac{100}{125} = 0.8\) times the original cost price.

    Selling the Article:

    – The merchant sells using an 80 gram weight instead of 100 grams. This means he gives 20% less of the article for the same price. So, the selling price per 100 grams is effectively \(\frac{100}{80} = 1.25\) times the original selling price.

    Marking Up and Discount:

    – The merchant marks up the price by 20% and then offers a 20% discount. The overall effect is calculated as follows:

    \[ \text{Overall Factor} = \frac{125}{100} \times \frac{100}{80} \times \frac{120}{100} \times \frac{80}{100} = \frac{3}{2} \]

    – This means the selling price is \(\frac{3}{2}\) times the cost price.

    Overall Profit Percentage:

    – Since the selling price is \(\frac{3}{2}\) times the cost price, the profit is \(\frac{1}{2}\) times the cost price.

    – Therefore, the profit percentage is:

    \[ \text{Profit Percentage} = \frac{1}{2} \times 100 = 50\% \]

    Conclusion

    The overall profit percentage is 50%.

    Solution

    Given that a right circular cone is cut by 3 planes parallel to its base into four equal parts along its height, the volumes of the parts are proportional to the cubes of their respective heights (since the volume of a cone is proportional to the cube of its height).

    Let the total height of the cone be \(4h\), where \(h\) is the height of each part.

    Volume of the 1st part (top part):

    The height of the 1st part is \(h\), so its volume is proportional to \(h^3\).

    Volume of the 2nd part:

    The height of the 2nd part from the apex of the cone is \(2h\). The volume of the cone with height \(2h\) is proportional to \((2h)^3 = 8h^3\). The volume of the 2nd part is the difference between the volumes of the cones with heights \(2h\) and \(h\), which is proportional to \(8h^3 – h^3 = 7h^3\).

    Volume of the 3rd part:

    The height of the 3rd part from the apex of the cone is \(3h\). The volume of the cone with height \(3h\) is proportional to \((3h)^3 = 27h^3\). The volume of the 3rd part is the difference between the volumes of the cones with heights \(3h\) and \(2h\), which is proportional to \(27h^3 – 8h^3 = 19h^3\).

    Volume of the 4th part (bottom part):

    The height of the 4th part from the apex of the cone is \(4h\). The volume of the cone with height \(4h\) is proportional to \((4h)^3 = 64h^3\). The volume of the 4th part is the difference between the volumes of the cones with heights \(4h\) and \(3h\), which is proportional to \(64h^3 – 27h^3 = 37h^3\).

    Conclusion

    The ratio of the volumes of each part is \(1 : 7 : 19 : 37\).

    Let’s analyze the data provided in the table to answer the questions:

    a) In which year all the companies together produces the maximum products.

    Total production in each year:
    – 2000: \(35 + 20 + 40 + 31 + 31 = 157\) lakhs
    – 2001: \(10 + 20 + 23 + 30 + 41 = 124\) lakhs
    – 2002: \(60 + 30 + 70 + 10 + 20 = 190\) lakhs
    – 2003: \(5 + 50 + 40 + 20 + 10 = 125\) lakhs

    Answer: The maximum production by all companies together was in the year 2002 .

    b) Production of B & C together in year 2000 is what percent of Production by D and E in year 2003?

    Production of B & C in 2000: \(20 + 40 = 60\) lakhs

    Production of D & E in 2003: \(20 + 10 = 30\) lakhs

    Percentage: \(\frac{60}{30} \times 100\% = 200\%\)

    Answer: The production of B & C together in year 2000 is 200% of the production by D and E in year 2003.

    c) What is the ratio of production by A & D in 2001 to the Production by B & E in 2003?

    Production by A & D in 2001: \(10 + 30 = 40\) lakhs

    Production by B & E in 2003: \(50 + 10 = 60\) lakhs

    Ratio: \(40:60 = 2:3\)

    Answer: The ratio of production by A & D in 2001 to the production by B & E in 2003 is 2:3 .

    d) If the profit generated on selling one product produced by A is Rs. 4.5, then find the total profit earned on selling all the products of A in all years together.

    Total products of A in all years: \(35 + 10 + 60 + 5 = 110\) lakhs

    Total profit: \(110 \times 10^5 \times 4.5 = 49,50,00,000\) Rs.

    Answer: The total profit earned on selling all the products of A in all years together is Rs. 49.5 crores .

    Given:
    – We need to find the value of \(\cos^2 \theta \left(\sqrt{\frac{1+\sin \theta}{1-\sin \theta}} + \sqrt{\frac{1-\sin \theta}{1+\sin \theta}}\right)\).

    1. Multiply the numerator and denominator of each fraction inside the square roots by the conjugate of the denominator:

    \[ \cos^2 \theta \left(\sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin \theta)(1+\sin \theta)}{(1-\sin \theta)(1+\sin \theta)}} + \sqrt{\frac{(1-\sin \theta)(1-\sin \theta)}{(1+\sin \theta)(1-\sin \theta)}}\right) \]

    2. Simplify the expressions inside the square roots using the identity \(1 – \sin^2 \theta = \cos^2 \theta\):

    \[ \cos^2 \theta \left(\sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin \theta)^2}{\cos^2 \theta}} + \sqrt{\frac{(1-\sin \theta)^2}{\cos^2 \theta}}\right) \]

    3. Simplify further by taking the square roots:

    \[ \cos^2 \theta \left(\frac{1+\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} + \frac{1-\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}\right) \]

    4. Combine the fractions:

    \[ \cos^2 \theta \left(\frac{1+\sin \theta + 1 – \sin \theta}{\cos \theta}\right) = \frac{2\cos^2 \theta}{\cos \theta} \]

    5. Simplify the expression:

    \[ 2\cos \theta \]

    Conclusion:
    The value of \(\cos^2 \theta \left(\sqrt{\frac{1+\sin \theta}{1-\sin \theta}} + \sqrt{\frac{1-\sin \theta}{1+\sin \theta}}\right)\) is \(2\cos \theta\).

    For a triangle with sides \(a\), \(b\), and \(c\), the circumradius \(R\) and the inradius \(r\) are given by: \[ R = \frac{abc}{4K} \] and \[ r = \frac{K}{s} \] where \(K\) is the area of the triangle and \(s = \frac{a + b + c}{2}\) is the semi-perimeter of the triangle.

    For a triangle with sides \(a\), \(b\), and \(c\), the circumradius \(R\) and the inradius \(r\) are given by:

    \[ R = \frac{abc}{4K} \]

    and

    \[ r = \frac{K}{s} \]

    where \(K\) is the area of the triangle and \(s = \frac{a + b + c}{2}\) is the semi-perimeter of the triangle.

    For the given triangle with sides \(a = 40\) cm, \(b = 41\) cm, and \(c = 9\) cm:

    \[ s = \frac{40 + 41 + 9}{2} = \frac{90}{2} = 45 \text{ cm} \]

    Using Heron’s formula, the area \(K\) of the triangle is:

    \[ K = \sqrt{s(s – a)(s – b)(s – c)} \]
    \[ K = \sqrt{45(45 – 40)(45 – 41)(45 – 9)} \]
    \[ K = \sqrt{45 \times 5 \times 4 \times 36} \]
    \[ K = \sqrt{32400} \]
    \[ K = 180 \text{ cm}^2 \]

    Now, we can find the circumradius \(R\):

    \[ R = \frac{abc}{4K} \]
    \[ R = \frac{40 \times 41 \times 9}{4 \times 180} \]
    \[ R = \frac{14760}{720} \]
    \[ R = 20.5 \text{ cm} \]

    And the inradius \(r\):

    \[ r = \frac{K}{s} \]
    \[ r = \frac{180}{45} \]
    \[ r = 4 \text{ cm} \]

    Finally, the value of \(2(R + r)\) is:

    \[ 2(R + r) = 2(20.5 + 4) \]
    \[ 2(R + r) = 2 \times 24.5 \]
    \[ 2(R + r) = 49 \]

    Therefore, the value of \(2(R + r)\) is 49 cm.

    Given:
    – Speed of the boat in still water = 10 km/hr
    – Speed of the current = 4 km/hr
    – Distance covered upstream = 12 km
    – Distance covered downstream = 14 km
    – Total time for the journey = 4 hrs

    1. Calculate the downstream speed:
    \[ \text{Downstream speed} = \text{Speed of boat in still water} + \text{Speed of current} \]
    \[ \text{Downstream speed} = 10 + 4 = 14 \text{ km/hr} \]

    2. Calculate the upstream speed:
    \[ \text{Upstream speed} = \text{Speed of boat in still water} – \text{Speed of current} \]
    \[ \text{Upstream speed} = 10 – 4 = 6 \text{ km/hr} \]

    3. Calculate the time taken to cover 12 km upstream:
    \[ \text{Time upstream} = \frac{\text{Distance upstream}}{\text{Upstream speed}} \]
    \[ \text{Time upstream} = \frac{12}{6} = 2 \text{ hrs} \]

    4. Calculate the time taken to cover 14 km downstream:
    \[ \text{Time downstream} = \frac{\text{Distance downstream}}{\text{Downstream speed}} \]
    \[ \text{Time downstream} = \frac{14}{14} = 1 \text{ hr} \]

    5. Calculate the time for which he took rest:
    \[ \text{Time for rest} = \text{Total time} – (\text{Time upstream} + \text{Time downstream}) \]
    \[ \text{Time for rest} = 4 – (2 + 1) = 1 \text{ hr} \]

Use the identity \((a + b + c)^2 = a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + 2(ab + bc + ca)\) to expand \((x + y + z)^2\): \[ (x + y + z)^2 = (6\sqrt{3})^2 \] \[ x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + 2(xy + yz + zx) = 108 \] \[ 36 + 2(xy + yz + zx) = 108 \] \[ 2(xy + yz + zx) =Read more

    Given:
    – \(x + y + z = 6\sqrt{3}\)
    – \(x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 36\)

    1. Use the identity \((a + b + c)^2 = a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + 2(ab + bc + ca)\) to expand \((x + y + z)^2\):

    \[ (x + y + z)^2 = (6\sqrt{3})^2 \]
    \[ x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + 2(xy + yz + zx) = 108 \]
    \[ 36 + 2(xy + yz + zx) = 108 \]
    \[ 2(xy + yz + zx) = 72 \]
    \[ xy + yz + zx = 36 \] (Equation A)

    2. Comparing Equation A with \(x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 36\):

    \[ x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = xy + yz + zx \]

    This implies that \(x = y = z\), as the sum of the squares of the variables is equal to the sum of their pairwise products.

    3. Therefore, the ratio of \(x : y : z\) is \(1 : 1 : 1\).

    Conclusion:
    The ratio \(x : y : z\) is \(1 : 1 : 1\).

    Given: - The rate of income tax increases by 18%. - The net income decreases by 2%. 1. The increase in income tax as a percentage of net income is: \[ \frac{\text{Increase in income tax}}{\text{Net income}} = \frac{2\%}{18\%} = \frac{1}{9} \] 2. Let's denote the income tax as \(x\) and the net incomRead more

    Given:
    – The rate of income tax increases by 18%.
    – The net income decreases by 2%.

    1. The increase in income tax as a percentage of net income is:

    \[ \frac{\text{Increase in income tax}}{\text{Net income}} = \frac{2\%}{18\%} = \frac{1}{9} \]

    2. Let’s denote the income tax as \(x\) and the net income as \(9x\).

    3. The total income is the sum of income tax and net income:

    \[ \text{Total income} = x + 9x = 10x \]

    4. The rate of income tax is the income tax divided by the total income:

    \[ \text{Rate of income tax} = \frac{x}{10x} \times 100\% = 10\% \]

    Conclusion:
    The rate of income tax was 10%.
