Q:

A boat sails 15 km of a river towards upstream in 5 hours. How long will it take to cover the same distance downstream, if the speed of current is one-fourth the speed of the boat in still water:

A) 1.8h B) 3h
C) 4h D) 5h
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 3h

Explanation:

Upstream speed = B-S

Downstream speed = B+s

B-S = 15/5 = 3 km/h

Again          B= 4S

Therefore    B-S = 3= 3S

=>             S = 1 and B= 4 km/h

Therefore    B+S = 5km/h

Therefore, Time during downstream = 15/5 = 3h

Q:

A room is half as long again as it is broad. The cost of carpeting the at Rs. 5 per sq.m is Rs. 270 and the cost of papering the four walls at Rs. 10 per sq.m is Rs. 1720. If a door and 2 windows occupy 8 sq. m, find the dimensions of the room.

A) b=6; l=18; H=6 B) b=5; l=6; H=18
C) l=6; b=18; H=15 D) l=5; b=18; H=18
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) b=6; l=18; H=6

Explanation:

Let breadth = x metres, length = 3x metres, height = H metres. 

Area of the floor=(Total cost of carpeting)/(Rate) = (270/5) sq.m = 54 sq.m 

x×3x2=54⇒x2=54×2⇒x=6  

So, breadth = 6 m and length =362 = 9 m.

Now, papered area = (1720/10) =  172 sq.m 

Area of 1 door and 2 windows = 8 sq.m 

Total area of 4 walls = (172 + 8) sq.m = 180 sq.m 

2×9+6H=180⇒H=6
