Q:

A sum is equally invested in two different schemes on CI at the rate of 15% and 20% for two years. If interest gained from the sum invested at 20% is Rs. 528.75 more than the sum invested at 15%, find the total sum?

A) Rs. 7000 B) Rs. 4500
C) Rs. 9000 D) Rs. 8200
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Rs. 9000

Explanation:

Let Rs. K invested in each scheme

Two years C.I on 20% = 20 + 20 + 20x20/100 = 44%

Two years C.I on 15% = 15 + 15 + 15x15/100 = 32.25%

Now,

(P x 44/100) - (P x 32.25/100) = 528.75

=> 11.75 P = 52875

=> P = Rs. 4500

 

Hence, total invested money = P + P = 4500 + 4500 = Rs. 9000.

Q:

If A1, A2, A3, A4, ..... A10 are speakers for a meeting and A1 always speaks after, A2 then the number of ways they can speak in the meeting is 

A) 9! B) 9!/2
C) 10! D) 10!/2
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 10!/2

Explanation:

As A1 speaks always after A2, they can speak only in  1st  to 9th places and 

 

A2 can speak in 2nd to 10 the places only when A1 speaks in 1st place 

 

A2 can speak in 9 places the remaining 

 

 A3, A4, A5,...A10  has no restriction. So, they can speak in 9.8! ways. i.e

 

when A2 speaks in the first place, the number of ways they can speak is 9.8!.

 

When A2 speaks in second place, the number of ways they can speak is  8.8!.

 

When A2 speaks in third place, the number of ways they can speak is  7.8!. When A2 speaks in the ninth place, the number of ways they can speak is 1.8!

 

 

 

Therefore,Total Number of ways they can  speak = (9+8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1) 8! = 92(9+1)8! = 10!/2
