Question No. : 1
Do you think racial stereotypes are false? Are you sure? I'm not asking if you're sure whether or not the stereotypes are false,
but if you're sure whether or not you think that they are. That might seem like a strange question. We all know what we think,
don't we?
Most philosophers of mind would agree, holding that we have privileged access to our own thoughts, which is largely immune
from error. Some argue that we have a faculty of 'inner sense', which monitors the mind just as the outer senses monitor the
world. There have been exceptions, however. The mid-20th-century behaviourist philosopher Gilbert Ryle held that we learn
about our own minds, not by inner sense, but by observing our own behaviour, and that friends might know our minds better
than we do. (Hence the joke: two behaviourists have just had sex and one turns to the other and says: "That was great for you,
darling. How was it for me?") And the contemporary philosopher Peter Carruthers proposes a similar view (though for different
reasons), arguing that our beliefs about our own thoughts and decisions are the product of self-interpretation and are often
mistaken.
Evidence for this comes from experimental work in social psychology. It is well established that people sometimes think they
have beliefs that they don't really have. For example, if offered a choice between several identical items, people tend to choose
the one on the right. But when asked why they chose it, they confabulate a reason, saying they thought the item was a nicer
colour or better quality. Similarly, if a person performs an action in response to an earlier (and now forgotten) hypnotic
suggestion, they will confabulate a reason for performing it. What seems to be happening is that the subjects engage in
unconscious self-interpretation. They don't know the real explanation of their action (a bias towards the right, hypnotic
suggestion), so they infer some plausible reason and ascribe it to themselves. They are not aware that they are interpreting,
however, and make their reports as if they were directly aware of their reasons.
Many other studies support this explanation. For example, if people are instructed to nod their heads while listening to a tape
(in order, they are told, to test the headphones), they express more agreement with what they hear than if they are asked to
shake their heads. And if they are required to choose between two items they previously rated as equally desirable, they
subsequently say that they prefer the one they had chosen. Again, it seems, they are unconsciously interpreting their own
behaviour, taking their nodding to indicate agreement and their choice to reveal a preference.
Building on such evidence, Carruthers makes a powerful case for an interpretive view of self-knowledge, set out in his book The
Opacity of Mind (2011). The case starts with the claim that humans (and other primates) have a dedicated mental subsystem for
understanding other people's minds, which swiftly and unconsciously generates beliefs about what others think and feel, based
on observations of their behaviour. (Evidence for such a "mindreading" system comes from a variety of sources, including the
rapidity with which infants develop an understanding of people around them.) Carruthers argues that this same system is
responsible for our knowledge of our own minds. Humans did not develop a second, inward-looking mindreading system (an
inner sense); rather, they gained self-knowledge by directing the outward-looking system upon themselves. And because the
system is outward-looking, it has access only to sensory inputs and must draw its conclusions from them alone. (Since it has
direct access to sensory states, our knowledge of what we are experiencing is not interpretative.)
The reason we know our own thoughts better than those of others is simply that we have more sensory data to draw on " not
only perceptions of our own speech and behaviour, but also our emotional responses, bodily senses (pain, limb position, and so
on), and a rich variety of mental imagery, including a steady stream of inner speech. (There is strong evidence that mental
images involve the same brain mechanisms as perceptions and are processed like them.) Carruthers calls this the Interpretive
Sensory-Access (ISA) theory, and he marshals a huge array of experimental evidence in support of it.
The author of the passage will agree with the statement:

Question No. : 7
Last semester I tried to create a college classroom that was a technological desert. I wanted the space to be a respite from the
demands and distractions of smartphones, tablets, and computers. So I banned the use of technology " because asking
students to be professional digital citizens had not worked.
Simply requesting that students put away their phones was an exercise in futility. Adding a line in the syllabus that there would
be grade penalties for unprofessional use of technology brought about no change in their habits of swiping and clicking. They
meant no disrespect. Technology pulled at them " and pulls at us " creating a sense of urgency that few can ignore. I get it. This
is not a college-student problem (I've been to faculty meetings). It's a human problem.
1.Education, the last bastion of learning not be infiltrated by the pernicious effects of technology, has fallen prey to technology
and its devices, much like other areas in human life
2. The infiltration of technology in classrooms, by virtue of smart-phones and devices, is a problem not limited to education
itself and mirrors wider behavioral changes in society
3.The human problem of being addicted to technology (by virtue of devices) is something that is creating a huge problem in
classrooms
4.Technology, aided and spread with the help of innumerable smart devices, has infiltrated classrooms, like all other areas of
life and disrupted education

Question No. : 8
The scenes of our life are like pictures in rough mosaic, which have no effect at close quarters, but must be looked at from a
distance in order to discern their beauty. So that to obtain something we have desired is to find out that it is worthless; we are
always living in expectation of better things, while, at the same time, we often repent and long for things that belong to the
past. We accept the present as something that is only temporary, and regard it only as a means to accomplish our aim. So that
most people will find if they look back when their life is at an end, that they have lived their lifelong ad interim, and they will be
surprised to find that something they allowed to pass by unnoticed and unenjoyed was just their life"that is to say, it was the
very thing in the expectation of which they lived. And so it may be said of man in general that, befooled by hope, he dances
into the arms of death.
1. Man is a fool who dies unknowing of the wonders of this world

2. Man, by want of a casual attitude and lack of concern for the present, would be lost in the present moment and miss out the
larger picture being painted for him
3. Man, forever governed by an attitude focused on the future, is lost in ephemeral moments that do not allow him to construct
the picture of life he wants
4.Man, by virtue of his lack of importance on the present, is not able to enjoy and identify the joys of life that he wanted in the
first place

Question No. : 10
DIRECTIONS for the question: Read the following passage and answer the question based on it.
There were two aspects of the economy; production and finance. It cannot be said which aspect is primary, since G.D. himself
was given to changing their priority. They are, in a way, interdependent, since the success of the one depends on the other. His
main emphasis was on production. The control of finance and solid results were the tone constantly decked by musical sounds,
measures, beats and rhythmic cycles. There were minor alterations and adjustments but the basic objective was always the
same. The common man is often charmed by the sound of an incantation or hymn and is later attracted by its meaning. In
order to make the right sound resonant no effort can be spared, or the tone itself has to be changed. Setting production
targets, controlling finance, and having it checked are not easy tasks. However, they were made easy and smooth by G.D. with
the help of his own system known as parata. This is how he made gold out of sand.
A parata is prepared under heads of income and expenditure. The money obtained from production is credited to the income
account. A fixed rate of kind of production is determined. If not the optimum of the produce, its expected income is calculated.
To produce so much daily becomes essential. If the production is less than the fixed target, it indicates positive loss; should it
exceed the target, it may mean definite profit. When the production involves different items, they are grouped separately and
an average rate is noted. The money to be obtained daily from production is thus the total income of a mill or factory under
scrutiny.
The expenditure account has two parts. One comprises the determined sum of the consumption of raw or semi-raw materials
and its standard cost. Its consumption changes according to daily production. The other part consists of stable expenses like
daily wages, salary, interest, electricity charges and traveling expenses. About twenty years ago in many paratas the sum of
daily wages had of necessity to be altered, but now since most labourers are in permanent service, practically no change is
required.
The balance of daily income and expenditure is called the daily parata. The margin may vary everyday from rupees one
thousand to five lakhs or more. The parata means that the manager must give at least the determined amount to the
proprietor. He is expected to bridge the gap between what should be and what it actually is. When there is a difference
between what should have been and what actually is, the poor manager and such officers are held responsible. Against each
item, a fixed or determined figure taken from the parata is shown and, in the parallel column, the actual figure is stated. In
between these two, the target is indicated on the board. Thus the parata is a base; the target is the objective; and the actual is
the result, good or bad. All these relevant figures are always before the manager. It is for him to change his tactics when
necessary, in order to achieve the targets.
Under the parata system the manager himself is authorised to distribute or decentralise work as he deems fit. He has every
right to watch, test, transfer or remove his staff. He is exclusively responsible for all results, good or bad. The blame and credit
are both his. To consider this system merely conventional is inappropriate. Like the flame of a lamp, it exhibits the results
clearly, whereas other systems are trackways to measure their distances from one another.
G. D. often said "The capacity of the machine and equipment is written on their name-plates, but a man's capacity for increased
production has no name-plate hanging around his neck nor is it printed on his forehead. He can increase production by his
intelligence and skills. He can change the speed of lifting, handling, transporting, hoisting, conveyorising, relaying and the like.
He can also create new demands of balancing equipment with new methods and plans and at the same time fulfil them. All this
requires the active cooperation of all workers and supervisors. Their morale has to be boosted. Increase production will improve
quality. There is no question of its deterioration, or there could be no demand or justification for increased production. The
effect of greater production should be better economy and efficiency. Even with lower prices the percentage of profit can very
well be maintained."
Excerpted from 'G D Birla, A Biography' by Ram Niwas Jaju
A good manager on seeing his target less than the parata would take all of the actions, except
A)He would ensure that if there is a fall in production then there would be at least a proportional fall in expenditure
B)He would reallocate work so as to give more responsibilities to people who are performing better
C)He would redesign the manufacturing processes so as to improve capacity by reducing bottlenecks
D)He would manage his working capital better by working out longer credit terms from his suppliers
Question No. : 11
With reference to the passage, what is NOT implied about G D Birla's managerial style?

B)Delayed action was something that he found very difficult to tolerate
C)He believed that parata system provided the manager with a clarity of the minimum targets he needed to achieve.
D)He believed that systems should be designed to aid ever increasing production
Question No. : 12
Which out the following is true according to the information provided in the passage?
A)Parata in the Marwari language stands for net profit and involves judging profits in conjunction with investments.
B)By giving authority to the managers the parata system ensures that they cannot pass the buck.
C)Parata will work only when the proprietor has a high degree of skill in dealing with figures and numbers.
D)The frequency of reporting in the parata system is pretty high and so the chances of mistakes going undetected are low.

1. The primitive man, unable to understand his being, much less the unity of all life, felt himself absolutely dependent on blind,
hidden forces ever ready to mock and taunt him.
2. Again and again, the same recurrent theme -- man is nothing, the powers are everything i.e. man can bask in all the glories
of the earth, but he must not become conscious of himself, an idea echoed by the State, society, and moral laws.
3. Out of that attitude grew the religious concepts of man as a mere speck of dust dependent on superior powers so high,
which can only be appeased by complete surrender.
4. All the early sagas rest on that idea, which continues to be the leitmotif of the biblical tales dealing with the relation of man
to God, to the State, to society.

Question No. : 15
A few years ago now, I went a bit mad. A relationship in which I was deeply invested had just come to a skidding halt, and I was
desperate to understand why. Was it my fault? Was it hers? What, precisely, had been the cause?
Racking my brain in search of some kind of coherent answer, I found myself lost in a thicket of competing "What if?" scenarios.
What if I'd been a better listener? What if she'd never met that other guy? What if we'd had a comfier mattress and hadn't been
so tired all the time " could that have been it?
I tortured myself attempting to reduce the frivolous factors to the deeper ones " but the harder I tried, the further the "What
ifs" seemed to proliferate. Eventually, I achieved some peace in the recognition that perhaps these accounts did not have to be
reconciled in any linear fashion. Of course a single event " such as a relationship, or its demise " could have multiple causes.
The notion of multiple causes finds a varied expression in the history of philosophy. In A System of Logic (1843), John Stuart
Mill despairs at the impossibility of picking out a 'single cause' from the background 'conditions' of an event. Here we might
imagine a ball flying through a pane of glass. What was the cause of the breakage? Perhaps the thrower? Perhaps the ball?
Perhaps the vulnerability of the glass? Perhaps the effect of gravity? Each of these counts as a condition, but picking out any
particular condition as the cause seems arbitrary.
The agency theory of causation also provides a neat solution to Mill's dilemma; what separates 'causes' from mere 'conditions'
is our ability to control them. To return to the ball flying through the pane of glass, it is easy to see that some of its conditions
are more susceptible to human influence than others. If we wish to avoid the breakage, we can decide not to throw the ball, or
to use a softer ball, or to install thicker windows. We cannot, however, manipulate the strength of gravity. The former
conditions are therefore causal in a way that the latter is not. These are the "handles" of agency theory. Contra Mill, however,
we need not require that such handles be singular. There are always multiple means of getting a grip.
The recognition of multiple causal handles " of a choice about where we place the source of our problems " has the pleasing
upshot of pouring cold water on the single-factor fundamentalists who dominate political discourse. What was the cause of the
2008 financial crash? Reckless deregulation! say the socialists. Reckless overregulation! say the libertarians. What is the cause of
any given strain on public services? Lack of government spending! says the left. Immigration! says the right. And so forth.
Taking a step back from such controversies, it should be obvious that complex social phenomena always have multiple causes,
and we should be suspicious of anyone who claims otherwise. I am not, however, promoting fence-sitting " nothing of the sort.
In fact, I believe the change in perspective that renders causes in terms of handles offers up two practical heuristics for
navigating causal disputes. First, when it is apparent that there exists a choice of causal handles, advocates of a particular
handle must go beyond merely demonstrating that it exists. They will be forced to say why their handle is fairer, or otherwise
more desirable, to lean upon. And second, advocates of a particular causal handle will be forced to speak of practicalities. If a
cause isn't tractable, then it is not strictly speaking a cause at all.
The author of the passage will agree with the viewpoint:
A)We must recognise that multiple events have multiple causes

B)We must recognise that multiple events have a single cause C)We must recognise that a single event has a single cause
D)We must recognise that single events have multiple causes

When I think about being a small child at the beginning of the 1980s, I think about the word diet. It was a noun (you could be
on one), a verb (you were dieting), or an adjective (Is this diet? I'd ask about a beverage or Jell-O). Our house filled up with diet
soda"as if to signal that having a drink with no sugar in it meant something was happening, like it had an agenda somehow
more directed than plain water. Why do you only have diet? my school friends would scornfully demand, and I didn't really
know. What I did know was that springy aerobics ladies drank Crystal Light, and that had to mean it was a health drink, a
beauty tonic. I was too little to know that tastier beverages had calories and Crystal Light didn't; that's why it was supposed to
be good for you. I didn't even know what calories were. I only remember feeling certain that as long as we only had diet drinks
in the house, we were going to be healthy.
Indeed just a few years before, a triumphant, startlingly thin Oprah had dragged a red wagon full of 67 pounds of fat onto her
television stage to represent the amount of weight she had lost with an extreme diet called Optifast. While on it she had 400
calories a day, entirely in liquid nutrition shakes (an average woman trying to lose weight is said to need 1,500 calories a day)..
As calorie-obsessed as the country was back then, as of 2011 one data set found that the average American's daily calorie-
intake was as high as a whopping 3,641"which was a few hundred calories higher than averages in Brazil, Russia, South Korea,
Kuwait, the United Kingdom, and Germany, but unsurprisingly well outdoes those in Vietnam, Japan, and Somalia.
Today we aren't so sure about artificially sweetened, low- or no-calorie 'diet' drinks. Although the FDA says diet soda is
harmless, lots of dietitians believe the additives in it are bad for your teeth and bones, and mostly unsubstantiated rumors of
aspartame's relationship to cancer persist. Self-titled 'anti-sugar guru' Brooke Alpert says "the fake flavor 'confuses' your palate,
leading to more sweet cravings and the release of insulin", which could explain the higher risk of Type-2 diabetes and higher
weight often associated with drinking lots of diet soda.
One study even found that those who drink diet soda regularly gain three times as much belly fat as those who don't. Although
consuming sugary drinks causes weight gain and eventual insulin resistance, too, there's enough evidence to suggest that the
fetish for 'diet' actually made people more obese, less able to read their body's cues. The Crystal Light ladies might have saved
us calories and sugar, but at the long-term cost of our sugar metabolism and unmooring us from our sense of sweetness.

A)the grammatical significance of the word B)the overarching significance of the word in her life
C)how her family saw dieting as the solution of their lives D)none of the above

To celebrate the Exposition Universelle held in Paris in 1900, a number of French artists were commissioned to produce a series
of cigar box cards on the theme 'En l'an 2000'. They came up with some fantastic imagery: in the future world they portrayed
there was clearly going to be a great deal of aerial warfare and submarine sport, and a lot of electricity. The denizens of the
year 2000 would put on their makeup with electricity, they would farm with electricity, and travel everywhere by electricity.
In one especially striking image, a group of schoolboys sit at their desks with electrodes strapped to their heads. In the corner
of the classroom, their teacher feeds textbooks into a machine that minces them up, distils the information they contain and
transmits it directly into the schoolboys' brains. That century-old image of French schoolboys having their heads electrically
pumped full of knowledge seems a good place to start thinking about a more recent manifestation of bodily electricity: the
announcement by researchers a few months ago that electrical stimulation of the brain could turn us all into better thinkers.
In February 2016, scientists working at the Catholic University Medical School in Rome published experimental results showing
that the memory and mental performance of lab mice could be significantly improved after short bursts of very low-intensity
electric current were delivered to their brains through electrodes attached to their scalps. The scientists found that the electric
stimulation led to increased levels of a protein called BDNF that plays an important role in neural development. Two years
before, scientists at Northwestern University announced that using a technique called Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation to
deliver electrical currents, they'd improved memory in their human experimental subjects. Both research teams highlighted how
their methods might offer better treatment of diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and other disorders involving memory loss,
as well as improving memory in healthy people. The Italian study was sponsored by the Office of Naval Research and was hailed
as offering ways to enhance the performance of military personnel in highly stressful situations, too.
It's not only the mind that a dose of electricity can help. Some gyms now offer clients the option of electrical stimulation as
they exercise. Imagine going through your usual routine, but dressed in a full body suit festooned with electrodes; as you
exercise, the electrodes deliver a series of small electric shocks that further stimulate the muscles, providing an additional
workout.
Technologies like these, that use electricity to enhance body and mind, are often presented as the cutting edge of science. But
those French illustrations should remind us that using electricity to improve ourselves has been part of our technological
imaginations for some time. What is it about electricity that makes it seem such a fertile resource for these sorts of
transformations? And how has our changing understanding of our electrical selves been shaped and reshaped as we have
turned electricity into a powerful tool for remodelling ourselves?
The example of the French artists and the varied depiction of electricity in their work highlights:
A)how the French foresaw the use of electricity.

B)how people in the 1900s could not understand the true applications of electricity.
C)how even in the year 1900 the looming importance of electricity was clear to all. D)None of the above

Joe Nguyen has imported a Tesla Model S electric vehicle to Singapore for his personal use. Singapore's government operates
a Carbon Emissions-Based Vehicle Scheme (CEVS) to encourage its citizens to buy low-pollution vehicles. The cleaner the
vehicle, the larger the tax rebate; the greater the emissions, the heavier the surcharge. Refer to the table for the scheme. The
Land Transport Authority tested the vehicle and estimates that the vehicle consumes 444 Wh/km.For all electric vehicles, a grid
emission factor of 0.5 g CO2/Wh is applied to the electric energy consumption.

QNo:-1,Correct Answer:-D
Explanation:- The author of the passage is clearly of the view that we are not necessarily aware of our own thoughts and
choices. Keeping this in mind, we can see that option 4 is the correct answer in the given case.
Options 1 and 2 go against the primary idea of the passage.
Option 3 is the ruled out as the idea of us knowing our thoughts 'automatically' is something that is not discussed in the passage.
The passage only talks about whether we know our thoughts or not. The word 'automatic' is given to multiple interpretations and
thus, we cannot obtain a conclusive judgement about the same.
QNo:-2,Correct Answer:-B
Explanation:- The author of the passage clearly uses the evidence provided by various experiments to prove his viewpoint. The
other two choices are not logical with respect to the given passage.
Explanation:- Option 1 can be derived from the lines: Humans did not develop a second, inward-looking mindreading system
(an inner sense); rather, they gained self-knowledge by directing the outward-looking system upon themselves. And because the
system is outward-looking, it has access only to sensory inputs and must draw its conclusions from them alone. (Since it has direct
access to sensory states, our knowledge of what we are experiencing is not interpretative.)
Option 2 does not find a mention in the passage.
Option 3 can be derived from the lines: What seems to be happening is that the subjects engage in unconscious self-interpretation.
They don't know the real explanation of their action (a bias towards the right, hypnotic suggestion), so they infer some plausible
reason and ascribe it to themselves.
Explanation:- Statement A: We do not have conscious thoughts or make conscious decisions. For, if we did, we would be aware
of them directly, not through interpretation. The conscious events we undergo are all sensory states of some kind, and what we
take to be conscious thoughts and decisions are really sensory images " in particular, episodes of inner speech. These images might
express thoughts, but they need to be interpreted.
Statement B: This is again something clearly implied in the passage. Since we are not aware of our thoughts, we might be
mistaken about them.
QNo:-5,Correct Answer:-C
Explanation:- This is a close one that you need to carefully consider the meanings of the given options. Let's have a close look:
Critical: Marked by a tendency to find and callattention to errors and flaws
Combative: Inclined or showing an inclination to dispute or disagree, even to engage in law suits
Logical: Capable of or reflecting the capability for correct and valid reasoning
Analytical: Using or skilled in using analysis (i.e., separating a whole--intellectual or substantial--into its elemental parts or
basicprinciples)
Speculative: Not based on fact or investigation
Objective: Undistorted by emotion or personal bias; based on observable phenomena
Academic: Hypothetical or theoretical and not expected to produce an immediate or practical result
Notional: Not based on fact; unreal
From the above, we can see that option 3 is the best choice.
Explanation:- Option 2 can be derived from the lines: The mid-20th-century behaviourist philosopher Gilbert Ryle held that we
learn about our own minds, not by inner sense, but by observing our own behaviour, and that friends might know our minds better
than we do.
For option 1, read these lines closely: Most philosophers of mind would agree, holding that we have privileged access to our own
thoughts, which is largely immune from error. Some argue that we have a faculty of 'inner sense', which monitors the mind just as
the outer senses monitor the world.
We cannot say that 'most philosophers are right'. It is impossible to pass this judgement in the given case.
Option 3 is incorrect. It incorrectly modifies the following statement: Evidence for this comes from experimental work in social
psychology. It is well established that people sometimes think they have beliefs that they don't really have.
QNo:-7,Correct Answer:-2
Explanation:-
Option 1 is too extreme in nature and the extreme negative sentiment expressed by it is not expressed in the paragraph.
Option 2 is the apt answer in this case. It reflects the general tone and tenor of the author of the passage and highlights the most
essential aspect of the paragraph: the problem in the classroom is one that the whole society faces right now.
Option 3 reverses the causation in this case. The problem is one that society suffers from and classrooms are not explicitly
targeted.
Option 4 presents incorrect information. The author at no point quotes that education has been disrupted.
Explanation:-
This is a question where you need to understand the paragraph first before identifying the correct answer. Let's begin with the end
of the paragraph. The paragraph states that man misses on the most important things in life and only realizes later that these
were the exact things that he wanted. This happens as his focus in the present is only the means and he misses the wider picture in
mind. Which options best reflects this sentiment? This is done by option 4 in the given case.
Explanation:-
The paragraph talks about home-field advantage which is introduced in sentence 2. 24 is a pair as 'its' in sentence 4 refers to
'home field advantage' mentioned in sentence 2. 6 follows 4 as both the sentences talk about conflict.
6 states that we expect the smallest, however the home advantage can play a major role which is stated in 3. sentences 3 and 5
contradict over the winning chances of the home team.
Explanation:-
Option 4. Refer to the last paragraph. The manager can change his tactics to achieve his targets. Hence he can reallocate
responsibilities, he can redesign the process and as he has to control production and finance he must make sure that a fall in
production would ensure a fall in expenditure too.
There is no mention of credit term policies.
QNo:-11,Correct Answer:-A
Explanation:-
Option 1. The parata system was an effective control over the managers and hence it was not necessary to be involved in all key
decision making. The managers shouldered their responsibilities.
As the production needs to be continuously increasing the manager who withholds the sales will also need to control production.
Hence option 3 and option 4 are ruled out.
The parata system monitors the balance of daily income and expenditure and hence demanded immediate action on any
discrepancy found. Hence option 2 is ruled out.
Explanation:-
Option 2 can be inferred from the lines: Under the parata system the manager himself is authorised to distribute or decentralise
work as he deems fit. He has every right to watch, test, transfer or remove his staff. He is exclusively responsible for all results, good
or bad. The blame and credit are both his.
Explanation:-
5 makes for a good opening line as it introduces the topic, taken further by 1, which explains the idea. 'that attitude' in 3 connects
with the attitude of man stated in 1. Thus 1,3 is a good, logical pairing. 'That idea' in 4 continues the same logical thread, which
finds a repetition in the words same, recurrent theme in 2.
Explanation:-
Statement 4 introduces the idea and 3 carries it forward. Thus, 4 & 3 are a pair.
The tools referred in 1 is the implicit association test in 2.
Hence, we have the following pairs: 43 and 12.
What makes the task difficult is that participants lying in the test. Hence, statement 5 follows 3, giving us the final order i.e. 43512.
Explanation:- The author of the passage clearly states that we cannot limit an event to a single cause; multiple causes lead to a
single event. This is the central idea of the passage and this helps us establish option 4 as the correct answer. If you clearly
understood the given context of the passage and the content, you will be able to identify the correct answer.
Explanation:- This is a tricky question wherein the answer options are indirect in nature. In the given case, it is clear that the
author of the passage wants to advocate the theory of causation and wants to highlight how the notion of multiple causes is a
valid approach. Remember, he is not presenting a hypothesis here; rather, he deals with a certain theory and provides supporting
evidence for it.
Explanation:- Refer to the lines: The agency theory of causation also provides a neat solution to Mill's dilemma; what separates
'causes' from mere 'conditions' is our ability to control them. To return to the ball flying through the pane of glass, it is easy to see
that some of its conditions are more susceptible to human influence than others. If we wish to avoid the breakage, we can decide
not to throw the ball, or to use a softer ball, or to install thicker windows. We cannot, however, manipulate the strength of gravity.
The former conditions are therefore causal in a way that the latter is not.
The author clearly points out gravity as something we cannot control and therefore, it is a condition and not a cause.
Explanation:- Refer to the context: The recognition of multiple causal handles " of a choice about where we place the source of
our problems " has the pleasing upshot of pouring cold water on the single-factor fundamentalists who dominate political
discourse.
Pour cold water on. Also, throw cold water on: Discourage or deter, as in Cutting my year-end bonus poured cold water on my
loyalty to the company, or Hearing about the outbreak of cholera threw cold water on our plans to visit Bolivia.
Explanation:- Two important things here are:

1. Meaning of heuristics: A common-sense rule (or set of rules) intended to increase the probability of solving some problem
2. The given context: Taking a step back from such controversies, it should be obvious that complex social phenomena always have
multiple causes, and we should be suspicious of anyone who claims otherwise. I am not, however, promoting fence-sitting "
nothing of the sort. In fact, I believe the change in perspective that renders causes in terms of handles offers up two practical
heuristics for navigating causal disputes.First, when it is apparent that there exists a choice of causal handles, advocates of a
particular handle must go beyond merely demonstrating that it exists. They will be forced to say why their handle is fairer, or
otherwise more desirable, to lean upon. And second, advocates of a particular causal handle will be forced to speak of
practicalities. If a cause isn't tractable, then it is not strictly speaking a cause at all.
Considering the above information, we can derive option 4 as the correct answer.
Explanation:- Remember, the linear/non-linear distinction is for the causes of the relationship and not the relationship itself.
Refer to the lines: I tortured myself attempting to reduce the frivolous factors to the deeper ones " but the harder I tried, the further
the 'What ifs' seemed to proliferate. Eventually, I achieved some peace in the recognition that perhaps these accounts did not have
to be reconciled in any linear fashion.
These help us identify option 3 as the correct answer.
Explanation:- Statement 4 is the odd one out in the given case. Statement 1 is the generic opening sentence and statement 3
provides details for the given framework. Statements 5 and 2 then describe the role of Putin in the deal. Statement 4 is the odd one
out here as the reference to this stalemate does not find an antecedent in any of the other statements.
Explanation:-
This is a complicated question and the paragraph in concern is quite difficult to understand. The easiest clue in this case is the
opening sentence: statement 1 is the clear opening sentence in this case as it explains the given context. Statement 3 then provides
us with further details and statement 5 follows it. Remember, statement 5 needs to precede statements 2 and 4. These two
statements highlight the riddle mentioned in statement 5. Statement 2 is the generic question and statement 4 is a more specific
question. Therefore, statement 4 follows statement 2.
Overall, this is a tough question and one which might not offer the best return in the exam.
Explanation:-
The lines 2, 4 and 1 form a logically arranged paragraph here. Statement 3 is an odd man out with its mention of travel to the
Moon.
Explanation:- Refer to the lines: When I think about being a small child at the beginning of the 1980s, I think about the word
diet. It was a noun (you could be on one), a verb (you were dieting), or an adjective (Is this diet? I'd ask about a beverage or Jell-O).
The answer for this question is in the first line of the passage. The author of the passage clearly wishes to start the importance of
the word 'diet' and how it dominated lives in their household. Considering this, option 2 is the best answer in the given case.
Explanation:- In the given passage, the author is trying to expose the flawed approach to dieting adopted by some. Remember,
the passage only talks about how the approach to calories (and the associated relations with diet sodas and the like) in fact was
the wrong way to do things. Keeping this in mind, we can see that option 3 is the correct answer.
Explanation:- Let's evaluate the meanings of the words given in the options:
1. wistfulness: a sadly pensive longing
2. hatred: the emotion of intense dislike; a feeling of dislike so strong that it demands action
3. bewilderment: confusion resulting from failure to understand
4. scornfulness: expressing extreme contempt
We can see that option 3 is the best choice in the given case.
Explanation:-
The opener in this case will be 3. After this 5 will come as 'the area that you can control is your ability to execute'. After this 1 will
come as it forms the basis of 'what is to be included to execute' i.e people.
Pronoun 'they' in 4 are the people mentioned in 1.
Finally the sequence is concluded by 2 as it highlights the cosequences due to 4.
Hence the final sequence is 35142.
Explanation:-
Only line 4 speaks of how the IAC originated while the rest focus on its theatrics and farcical ways of working.
Explanation:- In the given case, option 3 is the best answer. The depiction of electricity in the year 1900 was fairly varied and
extreme in nature. Underlying these depictions was the very fact that electricity was always viewed as something important.
Considering this, option 3 is the correct answer in the given case.
Explanation:- In the given case, the style of the author can be labelled as factual and insightful. He provides certain facts with
regards to how electricity was viewed in the times gone by and then goes on to add his insights and thoughts as well. Considering
this, option 4 is the correct answer here.
Explanation:- The key is in the word meanings here. Let's explore them one at a time:
Salubrious: Favourable to health of mind or body
Salacious: Characterized by lust
Salutatory: An opening or welcoming statement (especially one delivered at graduationexercises)
Sallowish: Somewhat sallow (Unhealthy looking)
Explanation:- Statements I and II can be derived from the lines: Both research teams highlighted how their methods might offer
better treatment of diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and other disorders involving memory loss, as well as improving memory
in healthy people.
Statement III can be derived from the line: It's not only the mind that a dose of electricity can help. Some gyms now offer clients
the option of electrical stimulation as they exercise.
Explanation:- Denizen is defined as: a person, animal, or plant that lives in or often is found in a particular place or region.
Explanation:- In order to identify the answer, let us go through the answer options:
1. Befuddlement: Confusion resulting from failure to understand
2. Inquisitiveness: A state of active curiosity
3. Bewitchment: A magicalspell
4. Fascination: A feeling of great liking for something wonderful and unusual
We can see that option 2 is the best answer in the given case.
Explanation:-
In 2011, BAL sold a total of 2.415 + 0.972 = 3.387 million motorcycles, where as the industry sold 10.5 million motorcycles. So,
BALs market share in 2011 was 3.387/10.5 = 32.25%.
Thus, BALs market share was the highest in 2011.
Explanation:-
In 2011, BAL sold a total of 2.415 + 0.972 = 3.387 million motorcycles, where as the industry sold 10.5 million motorcycles.
The percentage increase in the number of motorcycles sold by BAL in 2012 was (3.835 3.387)/3.387 = (0.448)/3.387 = 13.22%,
while the percentage increase in the number of motorcycles sold by the industry in 2012 was (11.944 10.5)/10.5 = 1.444/10.5 =
13.75%.
while the percentage increase in the number of motorcycles sold by the industry in 2013 was (11.952 11.944)/11.944 = 0.008
/11.944 = 0.06%.
/11.952 = 4.27%.
/12.463 = 4.26%.
Thus, as compared to the previous year, in no year from 2012 to 2015, was the percentage increase in the number of motorcycles
sold by BAL greater than the percentage increase in the number of motorcycles sold by the industry.
Explanation:- In 2012, BAL sold 1.268 million motorcycles in the export market. Since this accounted for 68.6% of the number of
motorcycles sold by the industry in the export market, we know that industry sales in the export market in 2012 were 1.268/0.686
= 1.848 million.
In 2014, BAL sold 1.323 million motorcycles in the export market. Since this accounted for 66.7% of the number of motorcycles
sold by the industry in the export market, we know that industry sales in the export market in 2014 were 1.323/0.667 = 1.983
million.
Thus, the increase in the number of motorcycles sold by the industry in the export market from 2012 to 2014 is 1.983 1.848 =
0.135 million = 135,000 motorcycles.
Explanation:-

million.
The increase in the number of motorcycles sold in 2012 is 1.848 1.479 = 0.369 million.

Thus, the increase was the largest in 2012.
Explanation:-
Total number of guest A+B+C+123
(H+3)+(C+1) + C+123
6+11+10+123 = 150
Explanation:-
Hence Guests like at least 2 of the 4 soft drink.
Total number - Exactly one of the soft drink 150-(A+K+C+N)
150-(6+8+10+15)
150-39 = 111
Explanation:-
Number of guests who like exactly 3 drinks
8K+1= 10+5+22+4=41
8K+1=41, K=5
Explanation:-
Number of guest like at most 2 of the 4 drinks.

Total number of Guest - (Number of guest liking exactly 3 + number of guest liking exactly 4)
150 - (41 + 6)
103
Explanation:-
The implication of unmet demand NOT spilling over is equivalent to making each time-period demand independent of all other
time periods. Hence, the maximum profit is obtained when profit is maximized for each time period. Please note that more than 80
passengers are needed for a profitable trip. Because
Fixed cost + variable cost < revenue
7200 +10 n < 100n, where n stands for number of passengers.
n > 80.
Also note that all the demand is now at the beginning of the time period.
Consider the first time period 6 am-8:59 a.m. for the plane at Chandigarh. A maximum of 2 trips can be made in this period since
it takes 1.5 hours per trip. Since there are 360 passengers waiting for the trip starting 6:00 am, the airline can make both the trips
with the maximum capacity of 150 passengers each. .
Consider the time period 9 am-11:59 am. A maximum of 2 trips can be made in this period since it takes 1.5 hours per trip. Since
there are 240 passengers waiting for the trip, both the trips cannot-be made with the 150 passengers each. So, trip can be made
this way. 2 trips with 120 passengers in each trip or 150 plus 90 in 2 trips. In both cases, there are 80 profitable passengers, (the
total number of passengers per trip less 80 passengers needed to cover the trip costs) . Applying similar arguments to each time
period, we obtain the following
Time Period in which travel starts Demand in number of passengers Number of trips and (number of passengers per trip) Total

Total 1200 8 trips 470 90
The table for trips from Delhi to Chandigarh is identical.

Also, for each additional passenger above 80 passengers in a trip, the airline makes a profit of 100-10 or 90.
Hence, the profit for plane at Chandigarh is 470 profitable passengers or 47090=42,300 and the total profit (considering the
plane at Delhi) is 42,3002=84,600. Hence (3)

In order to achieve a CSI of 1.00, there should be no unmet demand in any time period. From the above table. This implies that the
smaller aircraft will need to make 2 trips, one with 60 people in the first time period and one trip with 30 people between 3 and
5:59 pm.
Hence, the smaller aircraft should be profitable with 30 people.
Or 30 V + F is has to be less than or equal to 30100 where V is the variable cost per passenger and F is the fixed cost per trip.
Plugging, in the values of V and F from the various options, (1) is the only possible answer. Hence (1).

From above table, the maximum profit possible in the first time period without any new information=P = (140 additional
passengers) (90 per passenger) =12600
Normally, only 2 trips each way would have been possible. However, since there are 2 more planes, 4 trips each way are possible
between 5-7.59 a.m.This implies a total capacity of 150 4 or 600 passengers. Hence, all the 360 people can be flown.
Number of Business travelers= 60% 360=216.Revenue from business travelers =216250=54000
Number of normal travelers=40% 360=144
Revenue from normal travelers= 144100=14400
Total revenue=68400
Variable Cost=360 10=3600
Fixed cost of old plane =72002 = 14400
Total known costs = 18000
Let fixed cost of new plane be F
Profit = 68400-18000-F2
Equating this to P = 12600 = 68400-18000-2F,
F= =18900. Hence (1)
Explanation:- Following is a possible arrangement
Since Kathak is opposite to Salsa, means Salsa is at stall no. 4.

Movers & Shakers will be in stall 8 & Raasa will be in 7
Also, Kalaa & Teerandazi are opposite to each other. So, final arrangement becomes:
Quilling Kalaa/Teerandazi Salsa

Dhwani Nritya Gymnastic
Movers &
Rasaa Kalaa/Teerandazi Kathak Bharatnatyam Shabad
Shakers
As Kalaa & Bharatnatyam are on same side of the path, Kalaa can be either in stall 8 or 9 & Teerandazi can be in 2 or 3. Hence
Kalaa cannot be in between Nritya & Teerandazi.
According to given condition stated in question, arrangement becomes:

Dhwani Salsa / Quilling Teerandazi Sala /Quilling Nritya Gymnastic / Rasaa
Gymnastic / Rasaa Movers & Shakers Kalaa Bharatnatyam Shabad
So, in total, there are 4 possible arrangements.

Since Movers & Shakers is exactly between Kalaa & Quilling. So, Movers & Shakers, Kalaa, Quilling & Teerandazi will go in stall 3,
2, 4 & 8 respective stall 9 will be assigned to Salsa. So, Kathak will be opposite to Quilling.
Explanation:-
Since there are 5 students for the Chemical specialisation in 2009, the college offering Chemical could be A or B. Since there are 20
students for the Chemical Specialisation in 2010, these 20 students must be enrolled in college A. Thus, college A offers Chemical
as a specialisation.
Explanation:-
Since college C has 0 students in 2010, the college could offer any of the specialisations Electrical, Printing or Civil. Since college C
has 20 students in 2009 as well as 2011, we need a specialisation/s where the number of students adds up to 20 in 2009 and 2011.
This is possible only in the case of Electrical and Printing. Thus, college C offers 2 specialisations, Electrical and Printing.
Explanation:-
It can be concluded that we know that college C offers Electrical and Printing as specialisations. College A offers Chemical as a
specialisation. Since there are only 10 students in College A for Chemical in 2011, the remaining 10 students must opt for Civil. So
college A offers 2 specialisations, Chemical and Civil. College D has 10, 5 and 0 students in 2009, 2010 and 2011 respectively.
Since these figures match the values under Production, college D offers only Production as a specialisation. College B has 5, 15 and
0 students in 2009, 2010 and 2011 respectively. Since these figures match the values under Textile, college D offers only Textile as
a specialisation. We can now conclude that college E offers 2 specialisations, Mechanical and Computers.
Explanation:-
Carefully notice the question and you will find that the lists of ratios that are given for the two years, are such that essentially one
of the terms is repeated twice in the complete course. For example, see the last ratio X(B):Z(I):Y(C), you will find the term X(B) in the
first, Z(I) in the second and Y(C) in the third. The symmetry makes it possible to get the solution. From the information provided in
the question, we can draw the following tables,
(Note: In the tables below p, q, m, p, q and m are integral variables)
For the year 2007 (Table A)

B I C F T
X 3p 8m 2q 30
Y q 6p 11m 27
Z 5m 2q 4p 21
For the year 2008 (Table B)

B I C F T
X 6p 5m 3q 39
Y 2q 9p 4m 39
Z 2m 2q 8p 26
From L2, the sum of the first row in Table A = 120 and the sum of the first row in table B = 150
From L3, the sum of the third row in Table A = 100 and the sum of the third row in table B = 100
Therefore, the sum of the second row in Table A (eligible PG students in the year 2007) is
340 120 100 = 120
Similarly, from L2 and L3, the sum of the second row in Table B(eligible PG students in the year 2008) is 390 150 100 = 140
Now by L4 we have, 3p + q + 5m = 48 .(1)
Taking integral variable n for 5th ratio, we have X(B) = 6n, Z(I) = 10n and Y(C) = 11n
From table A,
X(B) = 6n = 3p, Z(I) = 10n = 2q and Y(C) = 11n = 11m
i.e., p/n = 2, q/n = 5 and m/n = 1
Dividing equation (1) by n, we get 3(p/n) + (q/n) + 5(m/n) = 48/n
So, 3 2 + 5 + 5 1 = 48/n
n=3
Therefore, p = 6, q = 15 and m = 3
Similarly, using L5, 3q + 4m + 8p = 88
Using integral variable n for 5th ratio, we can solve for p, q and m
So, p = 3, q = 12 and m = 7
Using these values we can get the number of students who got placed in various sectors in the given years.
For the year 2007 (Table A)

B I C F T
X 18 24 30 30 18
Y 15 36 33 27 9
Z 15 30 24 21 10
For the year 2008 (Table B)

B I C F T
X 18 35 36 39 22
Y 24 27 28 39 22
Z 14 24 24 26 12
The ratio is (30 + 33 + 24) : (36 + 28 + 24) = 87 : 88.
Explanation:-
It is given that at least one son has three children which means at least one Son must have exactly one child.
By observation, only Qureshi can possibly have exactly one child i.e. Delta). Hence, at most one of the other Sons can have three
children.
Delta must be the only child of Qureshi.
It can also be observed that the possible combinations of Shyam children are ( Helta, Eita/ Helta, Beta, Cita)
The feasible cases of Qureshi children and Shyam's children are
Case-I Case-II
Qureshi -Delta Qureshi - Delta
Shyam - Helta, Shyam- Helta,
Eita Beta, Cita
Further, the number of Gulab Jamun eaten by Iiota is 2.

Iiota must be a child of Pawan or Tara Chand (1)
Also, the number of Sandesh eaten by Joie is 2.
Joie must be a child of Pawan or RamjI (2)
Now, we assess each case, as follows
Case-I
From (1) Iiota must be child of Pawan or Tara Chand.
(a) Let us assume Iiota is a child of Pawan. The number of Gulab Jamun eaten by Pawan children is 2 and the number of Gulab
Jamun eaten by Iiota is 2.
The number of Gulab Jamun eaten by the remaining children of Pawan is 0.
Of the remaining only Beta, Cita and Joie can be the children of Pawan and of them the only possible combination is Iiota, Joie.
Of the remaining the possible combinations of Ramji children are (Beta, Gieta)/(Beta, Cita, Fanta).
Of the remaining the possible combinations of Tara Chand children are (Alpha, Cita, Fanta)/(Alpha, Gieta)
The feasible solutions of case-I (a) are .
(1) Pawan Iiota, Joie (2) Pawan- Iiota, Joie

Qureshi Delta Qureshi Delta
Ramji Beta, Gieta Ramji Beta, Cita, Fanta
Shyam Helta, Eita Shyam Helta, Eita
Tara Chand Alpha, Cita, Tara Chand Alpha,
Fanta Gieta
(b) Let us assume Iiota is a child of Tara Chand. The only possible combination of Tara Chand children is Iiota, Beta. Of the
remaining the possible combination of Ramjis children are Alpha, Joie. The feasible solutions of case-I (b) are
(1) Pawan Cita, Fanta, Gieta

Qureshi Delta
Ramji Alpha, Joie
Shyam- Helta, Eita
Tara Chand Iiota, Beta
Case-II
From (1) Iiota, must be a child of Pawan or Tara Chand.
(a) Let us assume Iiota is a child of Pawan. Working similarly as in above cases, we get the feasible solution of case-II(a) is
(1) Pawan Iiota, Joie
Qureshi-Delta
Ramji- Eita, Fanta
Shyam-Helta, Beta, Cita
Tara Chand Alpha, Gieta
(b) Let us assume Iiota is a child of Tara Chand. Then Beta has to be the other child of Tara Chand which is not possible because
Beta is a child of Shyam.
There are no feasible solutions for this case.
The total number of feasible solutions are 4 and they are

If Shyam has three children, then Eita must be the child of Ram Ji. Hence option (1)
Explanation:-
After adding up the rows, we know that the total number of students in Civil Engineering in Colleges A and B is 120 each and the
total number of students in each of the other streams in both colleges is 180 each. So, each college has a total of 840 students. The
total number of students from College A placed with starting salaries of Rs. 6 lakhs is 144 and the total number of students from
College B placed with starting salaries of Rs. 6 lakh is 159. The required difference is (159 144)/840 = 15/840 = 1/56.
Explanation:-
The number of students in Mechanical from College B who were placed at starting salaries of Rs. 5 lakhs or more is 40 + 35 + 5 =
80. These 80 students form (80/180) 100 44.44% of the 180 students in Mechanical.
The number of students in Civil from College B who were placed at starting salaries of Rs. 5 lakhs or more is 20 + 25 + 10 = 55.
These 55 students form (55/120) 100 45.83% of the 120 students in Civil.
The number of students in Electrical from College B who were placed at starting salaries of Rs. 5 lakhs or more is 42 + 23 + 12 =
77. These 77 students form (77/180) 100 42.77% of the 180 students in Electrical.
The number of students in Electronics from College B who were placed at starting salaries of Rs. 5 lakhs or more is 42 + 48 + 8 =
98. These 98 students form (98/180) 100 54.44% of the 180 students in Electronics.
The number of students in Computer Science from College B who were placed at starting salaries of Rs. 5 lakhs or more is 27 + 28
+ 15 = 70. These 70 students form (70/180) 100 38.88% of the 180 students in Electrical.
Thus the percentage is highest for Electronics.
Note: The percentage calculation can be avoided by simply comparing fractions. However, the 55/120 for Civil should be changed
to 82.5/180 so that all fractions have the same denominator. If you realise that Civil is not one of the options, there is no need for
this conversion!
Explanation:-
The average salary of the students of Civil in College A was earlier [(23 3) + (35 4) + (30 5) + (20 6) + (12 7)] / 120 =
563 lakhs / 120 = Rs. 469,166. The average salary of these students is now [(23 3) + (35 4) + (30 6) + (32 7)] / 120 = 613
lakhs / 120 = Rs. 510,833. The average salary of these students has increased by 510833 469166 = Rs. 41,667. So statement I is
true.
The average salary of the students of Civil in College B was earlier [(20 3) + (45 4) + (20 5) + (25 6) + (10 7)] / 120 =
560 lakhs / 120 = Rs. 466,666. The average salary of these students is now [(20 3) + (45 4) + (20 6) + (35 7)] / 120 = 605
lakhs / 120 = Rs. 504,166. The average salary of these students has increased by 504166 466666 = Rs. 37,500. So statement II is
true.
In statement III, we are interested in students who have a starting salary of Rs. 7 lakhs. Since the total number of students in both
colleges is the same, we need to check only for the total number of students with a starting salary of Rs. 7 lakhs. The number of
students in College A with starting salaries of Rs. 7 lakhs is 31 + 32 + 45 + 35 + 48 = 191 and the number of students in College B
with starting salaries of Rs. 7 lakhs is 40 +35 +35 + 56 + 43 = 209. Since the number of students with starting salaries of Rs. 7
lakhs is greater in College B than in College A, statement III is false.
In statement IV, there is no need to calculate the number of students with starting salaries of less than Rs. 7 lakhs. In verifying
statement III, we know that the number of students with starting salaries of Rs. 7 lakhs is greater for College B than College A. So,
the number of students with starting salaries less than Rs. 7 lakhs will be greater for College A than College B. So statement IV is
true.
Hence option 4.
Explanation:- We can tabulate the given information as shown below.
Family P1 P2 P3 P4 P5
L A A, B --- --- B
M C, D D, G D C, G E
N H --- H, S R R, S
Since children from each family working on a project have at least one laptop, we can conclude that a single child from any family
working on a project must have a laptop.
Of the Lalwanis, Anay alone works on P1 and Bhairavi alone works on P5; therefore, both of them must have laptops.
Of the Mangwanis, Divya alone works on P3 and Esha alone works on P5; therefore, both of them must have laptops. Now, Chetan
and Gautam need not have laptops for P1 and P2 respectively, but at least one of them must have a laptop for P4.
Of the Nagranis, Hetal alone works on P1 and Rohit alone works on P4; therefore, both of them must have laptops.
Two children, one of Chetan and Gautam, and Sohum need not have laptops.
L A A, B --- --- B
N H --- H, S R R, S
Sohum need not have a laptop for any project.

L A A, B --- --- B
N H --- H, S R R, S
P3 will have exactly 2 laptops, one each with Divya and Hetal, while Sohum need not have a laptop. P4 will have exactly 2 laptops,
one with either Chetan or Gautam, and one with Rohit. Thus, two projects will have exactly two laptops.
L A A, B --- --- B
N H --- H, S R R, S
P1 has 3 laptops, one each with Anay, Divya and Hetal. P2 has 3 laptops, one each with Anay, Bhairavi and Divya. We know that
at least one of Chetan and Gautam must have a laptop for P4. Since we want to minimise the total number of laptops, exactly one
of them must have a laptop. Accordingly, either P1 only or P2 only will have exactly 4 laptops.
Explanation:-
f ( f ( f ( f ( x ) ) ) ) = x.
Just apply the function formula given 4 times and get the answer as x.
Explanation:-
Time difference between successive runners = t.
t1 = 9.8; t5 = 10.4 = 9.8 + 4t,
t = 0.15 seconds
t4 = 9.8 + 3t, t2 = 9.8 + t, t5 = 9.8 + 4t,
t3 = 9.8 + 2t, t8 = 9.8 + 7t, t6 = 9.8 + 5t,
t7 = 9.8 + 6t
t1 + t4 + t5 + t8 = (4 9.8) + 14t.....(1)
t2 + t3 + t6 + t7 = (4 9.8) + 14t.(2)
(1) = (2). Now as the time taken by both the teams are the same, the difference in the time taken by both the teams = 0.
Hence, 4th option.
Explanation:-
The first place can be filled in 9 ways (except 0).
2nd place can be filled in 9 ways again because the digit we have used in 1st place cannot appear at 2nd place.
Similarly, 3rd, 4th and 5th place can be filled in 9 ways each.
So, total ways are 9 9 9 9 9 = 95, which is the same as 310
Explanation:-
n(n!) = 1 1! + 2 2! + 3 3! + + n n!
= (2 - 1)1! + (3 - 1)2! + (4 - 1)3! +.....+ (n + 1 - 1) n!
= 2! - 1! + 3! - 2! + 4! - 3! +.....+ (n + 1)! - n! = (n + 1)! 1
= (n + 1)! 1 = (n + 1)(n)(n 1)(n 2) 3.2.1 1.

Now, (n + 1)(n)(n 1)(n 2) 3.2.1 is perfectly divisible by n(n 2) [since, n2 2n = n(n 2)].
So, the remainder when n(n!) is divided by n2 2n is n2 2n 1.
Hence, option 3.
Explanation:-
Hence the answer is option A

Explanation:-
Suppose point P is 98 units away from point A on the circumference of the circle with centre O. Extending PA to meet the centre of
the circle, we get PO = 113. If PT is the tangent to the circle, then PO2 = PT2 + OT2. So, PT2 = 1132 152 = 12769 225 = 12544
= 1122. Thus, PT = 112 units.
Explanation:-
Explanation:-
Explanation:-
Let us take the example of a few equations whose roots are real and positive:
Case 1: x2 2x + 1 = 0
Here c = 1 and either of k = 2, b = 2 or k = 3, b = 1
Case 2: x2 x + 1/4 = 0
Here c = 1/4 and either of k = 0, b = -1 or k = 2, b = 1
Hence, none of these.
Alternative Solution:
Since the roots are real and positive, thus D0
(k 1)2 b2 4c 0
Or, (k 1)2 b2 4c
Also since the roots are positive, thus their sum as well as product is also positive.
Hence, (k 1)b > 0 and c > 0.
Now, assuming c = 1, k = 2, we have b2 4.
Let us assume b = 2, thus b > c and now checking the answer options, none of the option satisfies. Hence, the correct option is 4.
Explanation:- Since the triangle is isosceles, so we have

(i) 3b -2 = b + 5 => b = 7/2
The sides of the triangle in this case are 17/2, 17/2 and 5/2
(ii) 3b - 2 = 6 - b => b = 2
The sides of the triangle in this case are 7, 4 and 4
(iii) 6 - b = b + 5 => 2b = 1=> b = 1/2
The sides of the triangle in this case are 11/2, - 1/2 and 11/2
As in this case, one side is negative, so this case is not possible.
Hence only 2 values of b are possible.
Explanation:-
7396 4796 is divisible by (73 47) = 26 = 2 13 and (73 + 47) = 24 5
Also, 73 96 47 96 is divisible by 732 472
732 472 = 3120 = 2 5 312
Hence, 73 96 47 96 is divisible by 24, 65 and 312.
Explanation:-
Explanation:-
Explanation:-
Initially the volume of water in D1 is more than the volume of water in D2 by 60%
Let the capacities of the drums D1 and D2 be V1 and V2 respectively
Let V2 be 5k, therefore V1 = 8k
Rate at which water leaks from and the rate at which water leaks from
Let the time after which the volume of water left in D2 becomes 25% more than the volume of water left in D1 be t.
In time t water leaking out of
Therefore, the water left in and the water left in
Now,
Or, t = 4.5 hours.

Choice (B)
Explanation:-
Area of the screen = length width
We know that the product of two numbers is maximum when they are equal.
So for maximizing the area, length = width.
Alternate explanation:
In general, the closer the dimensions are to each other, the higher will be the area.
Just to reconfirm, we will calculate the areas for two of the options.
Option 1: 20/2 and 20/2. So area will be 200 sq inch
Option 3: it will be 16 by 12 inch. So area is 192 sq inch.
Explanation:-
Explanation:-
1st diya is lighted at 6:30 pm which will extinguish at 7:00 pm
2 new diyas are lighted at 7:30 pm which will extinguish at 8:00 pm
3 new diyas are lighted at 8:30 pm which will extinguish at 9:00 pm
4 new diyas are lighted at 9: 30 pm which will extinguish at 10 pm
4 new and 1 old (total 5) are lighted at 10:30 pm which will extinguish at 11 pm.
Now we need 6, 7 (total = 13) diyas to be lighted at 11: 30 pm and 12:30 am and we had 13 diyas in which oil is still there.
So, minimum diyas required by Vishnu is (1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 4) = 14.
Explanation:-
If BD = 10 is the median, then AD = DC = 10, which gives us AC = 20. Now, AB2 + BC2 = AC2 = 400.
Explanation:-
As(11 men + 16 boys) take 2 days (22 men + 32 boys) take 1 day (1)
Also, as (5 men + 11 boys) take 4 days (2) (20 men + 44 boys) take 1 day
22 men + 32 boys = 20 men + 44 boys
hence 11 men and 16 boys work = 82 boys work and 1 man and 4 boys work = 10 boys work
Time taken by 1 man and 4 boys to complete the work = 822/10 = 16.4 days
Explanation:-
Since a b and divide through by b!:
a! = a!/b! + 1 + 2c/b!, giving integers throughout.
As each term on the RHS is integer, RHS 3 a! 3 a 3.
For b> 2, b! will contain a factor of 3, and so cannot divide 2c. Thus b=1 or b=2.
If b = 1, we get a! = a! + 1 + 2c, which leads to 2c + 1 = 0: no solution.
If b = 2, we get a! = a!/2 + 1 + 2c 1, which leads to a!/2 = 1 + 2c 1.
If a > 3, c would never be an integer.
If a = 3, 3 = 1 + 2c 1 c = 2.
Explanation:-
Let Arun's weight be x kg.
According to Arun: 65 < x <72
According to Arun's brother: 60 < x < 70.
According to Arun's mother: x 68
The values satisfying all the above conditions are 66, 67 and 68.
Explanation:- Let the volumes of a cup and a cone be x and y respectively.

So 17x + 9y = 704 .... (1)
and 9x + 17y = 752 ..... (2)
(1) + (2) gives x + y = 56 ......(3)
Explanation:-
Since each number lies between its immediate neighbours, so the series would be either increasing or decreasing. Since 3rd
number is less than the 8th number, so it would be an increasing series and hence the first number will be least.
Explanation:-
Suppose the speeds of A, B and C are a kmph, b kmph and c kmph respectively. When C catches up with A at 2 p.m., the distance
travelled by A and C in 4 hours and 2 hours is the same. So, 4a = 2c, which yields c = 2a. When C catches up with B at 3 p.m., the
distance travelled by B and C in 5 hours and 3 hours is the same. However, C has been running at c kmph for 2 hours and at 2c
kmph for 1 hour. So, 5b = 2c + 2c, which yields c = 5b/4.
Thus, c = 2a = 5b/4, which yields a : b = 5 : 8.
Explanation:-
Since the percentage of people favouring the BRTS from both areas is the same, we know that the number of people favouring the
BRTS from both areas will be in the same ratio as the ratio of the number of people who participated in the poll from the two
areas. The number of people who participated in the poll from Pune and Pimpri-Chinchwad is in the ratio 245952 : 163968 = 3 : 2.
Thus the number of people who favoured the BRTS from Pune is (3/5) 307440 = 184,464.
Explanation:-
Hence, the correct answer is option D.
Explanation:- Let and b be the length and breadth of rectangle.

b = 60; + = 5b; Solving = 12, b = 5; 2 ( + b) = 34.
Explanation:-
Explanation:-
Explanation:- |a2 - b2| = a2 - b2 = 0.4 if a > b &

= b2 - a2 = 0.4 if b > a
If (a > b), a2 = b2 + 0.4 = (-0.3)2 + 0.4 = 0.09 + 0.4 = 0.49
|a| = 0.7
|a| + |b| = 0.7 + |-0.3| = 0.7 + 0.3 = 1.
If b > a; 0-09 - a2 = 0.4 a2 = - 0.31 (not possible)
Explanation:- Solution 1:
When the match he has drawn has 0 sticks in it, there can be 3, 2, 1, or 0 sticks in match two.
Thus out of four available choices only one satisfies the required situation.
Thus the probability that the other match has 1 stick when the first match has 0 sticks will be .
Solution 2:
Of sixteen results(4 4) the probability that Match 1 has no stick and Match 2 has 1 stick is P(AB) = 1/16.
The probability of Match 1 having zero sticks is P(A) = 1/4.
Therefore, from P(AB) = P(A) P(B/A)
Probability of 1 stick in Match 2 when Match 1 has zero stick
P(B/A) = P(AB)/ P(A) = (1/16)/ (1/4) = 1/4
Explanation:- Given equation can be written as 2xy=0xy=0

either x=0 or y=0
So, graph contains co-ordinate axes i.e. 2 lines.
Explanation:- Lets say the marked price is x

then on selling 12 books he gets (0.8x) 11 = 8.8x
Lets say the cost price of each book is y then the total cost of 12 books is 12y
Now he made 10% profit thus 1.1 (12y) = 8.8x
12y = 8x
x = 3/2y = 1.5y
Thus x is 50% more than y, hence marked price is 150% of the cost price.
Explanation:- Carbon dioxide emission = 444 0.5 = 222 grams per km.
This will put it in category C3, which means a surcharge of $ 15,000
