Q:

A man can row 9 km/h in still water. It takes him twice as long as to row down. Find the rate of stream of the river ?

Answer

\inline \frac{Time\: taken\: in\: upstream}{Time\: taken\: in\: downstream} = \inline \frac{2}{1}


 \inline \therefore \inline \frac{Downstream\: speed}{upstream\: speed} = \inline \frac{2}{1}        where  \inline \frac{B+R}{B-R}=\frac{2}{1}


B ---> speed of boat in still water


R---->speed of current


\inline \Rightarrow \frac{B}{R}=\frac{3}{1}    ( By componendo and dividendo)


\inline \Rightarrow \frac{9}{R}=\frac{3}{1}\: \: \Rightarrow R= 3\: km/h

Q:

The breadth of a rectangular field is 60% of its length. If the perimeter of the field is 800 m.What is the area of the field?

A) 47500 B) 37500
C) 57500 D) 77500
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 37500

Explanation:

Let length = x meters, then breadth = 0.6x 

Given that  perimeter = 800 meters 

=> 2[ x + 0.6x] = 800 

=> x = 250 m 

Length = 250m and breadth = 0.6 x  250 = 150m 

Area = 250 x 150 = 37500 sq.m
