A) 10 5/2 days B) 11 days
C) 11 2/5 days D) 12 1/2 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 10 5/2 days

Explanation:

Let efficiency of every man and every woman be 'm' unit/day and 'w' unit/day respectively

15×12×m = 10×16×w

⇒ m/w = 8/9

Total work = 15 × 12 × 9 = 1620 units

In 2 days, total work done = 15 x 9 + 16 x 8 = 263 units

So, in 10 days work done will be = 263 × 5 = 1315 units

Remaining work will be done in = (1620-1315)/(15×8) = 5/2 days

Total days = 10 5/2 days.

Let the inner and outer radii be r and R metres.

 

Then  2πR=3527=>R=3527*722*12=8m 

 

 2πR=5287=>R=5287*722*12=12m

 

=> Width of the ring = (R - r) = (12 - 8) m = 4 m.

Q:

For x∈N, x>1,  and  p=logxx+1, q=logx+1x+2 then which one of the following is correct?

A) p < q B) p = q
C) p > q D) can't be determined
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) p > q

Explanation:

kl>k+1l+1 for (k,l) > 0 and  k > l 

 

 

 

Let     k = x+1    and   l = x

 

 

 

Therefore, x+1x>(x+1)+1(x)+1

 

 

 

 (x + 1) > x

 

 

 

Therefore, log(x+1)log(x)>log(x+2)log(x+1)

 

 

 

⇒logxx+1 >logx+1x+2
