Let the present age of Ravali = x

=> Swarna's present age = x - 9

From the given data,

x + 7 = 2(x - 9 + 7)

=> x = 11 yrs

Required Ravali's age after 4 years = 11 + 4 = 15 yrs.

Rate of rice of quantity 280 kg = Rs. 15.60/kg

Rate of rice of quantity 120 kg = Rs. 14.40/kg

He want to earn a profit of Rs. 10.45/kg

Rate of Mix to sell to get profit of 10.45 =  

$$\begin{gathered} 280 x 15.60 + 120 x 14.40280 + 120 + 10.45 \\ 4368 + 1728400 + 10.45 \\ => 15.24 + 10.45 \\ = 25.69 \end{gathered}$$

a. P's investment = (80000 x 6 + 60000 x 6) = 840000 for 1 month.

b & c. Q's investment = 80% of Rs. 60000 for 8 months.

= Rs.(48000 x 8) for 1 month = 384000 for 1 month

P : Q = 840000 : 384000 = 35 : 16.

But, the total profit is not given, so data is inadequate.

The correct statement among the given options about the process of scientific inquiry is "It is possible to test hypotheses, such as those involving historical events, without conducting experiments."

Although it is not possible to carry out experiments to test hypotheses about evolutionary relationships between living groups or about the timing of the origin of major evolutionary innovations, such hypotheses can be evaluated by making predictions about the expected findings that would result from these hypotheses. Data can then be collected to test whether these predictions are correct.
