Col B: (5^10)*(8^2)

2. A square was given and another square was formed by joining mid points of the square. If perimeter of larger square was given 'X'.
Col A: Perimeter of smaller square
Col B: X/2

3. Col A: (7!)^2
Col B: 13!

4. If f(n,k) = n!/(k!*(n-k)!), then
Col A: f(16,3)
Col B: f(16,14)

5. If product of xyz is odd integer, then which of the following is even
A. x(y+z)
B. xy+z

Allanswersare correct except forthe 1st and 6th one
1st Question
Col A: (2^8*(15^5)+(2^8*(15^5)
Col B: (5^10)*(8^2)

COLA:2(2^8 *15^5) = 2^9 * 15^5 = 8^6*5^5*3^5
COLB:5^10*8^2

DivideCOLAwith COLB =8^4*3^5/5^5 =(8/5)^4*(3^5/5) >1

ThereforeCOLAisgreater

6th Question

There is a series of odd numbers from 1 to n where n is a odd number. What is the probability that a number selected at random will be an odd number?

When the seriesis of oddnumbers,no matter what u take, it will be an odd number ,therefore the probability is 1

Please correct me if iam wrong anywhere

My Mistake,

Question1 COL b is greater

. A square was given and another square was formed by joining mid points of the square. If perimeter of larger square was given 'X'.
Col A: Perimeter of smaller square
Col B: X/2


Can someone explain this problem for me

I am getting the perimeter of smaller square as x

Hi Sivaraj,

for this problem, the diagonal of the samller squre is the side of the larger square,
let the side of the smaller sqre be b and that of the larger square be a,

then (sqrt2)*b=a

b=a/(sqrt2)

Now perimeter of the larger square =4a=X, X/2 = 2a
perimeter of the smaller square = 4b=4a/(sqrt2)=2(sqrt2)a

Therefore COLA is gretaer

I think question 6 means 1,2,...n , both even and odd numbers. thus given answer is correct.

for Question 1: A comes to around 388m while B comes to around 625m, plz correct me if i am wrong

in 7th
consider the intercept form of equation
x/a+y/b=1, where a, b are x-intercept, y-intercepy respt.
so, xb+ya/ab=1
xb+ya=ab
ya=-xb+ab
y=x(-b/a)+b
slope -b/a=-1/2
thus a>b
so ans A

so what about the line pass (0,0),then theX or Y-interpret are both 0

correct me thanks^^
