Q:

The value of a machine depreciates at the rate of 10% every year. It was purchased 3 years ago. If its present value is Rs. 8,748, its purchase price was ?

A) Rs.14,000 B) Rs.12,000
C) Rs. 12,800 D) Rs. 15,000
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs.12,000

Explanation:

We have P = 8748, R = -10 and n = 3
Therefore, the purchase price of the machine
= P1+R100n= 87481-101003
= 8748 x (100/90) x (100/90) x (100/90)
= 12,000.

 

Therefore, the purchase price of the machine was Rs. 12,000.

Q:

A train 800 metres long is running at a speed of 78 km/hr. If it crosses a tunnel in 1 minute, then the length of the tunnel (in meters) is :

A) 130 B) 360
C) 500 D) 540
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 500

Explanation:

Speed =[ 78 x ( 5/18 ) ] m/sec = 65/3 m/sec.

 

Time = 1 minute = 60 sec.

 

Let the length of the tunnel be x metres.

 

Then, [ (800 + x )/ 60 ]= 65/3

 

3(800 + x) = 3900

 

 x = 500.
