Q:

x = y - (50/y), where x and y are both > 0 

If the value of y is doubled in the equation above, the value of x will

A) decrease B) stay the same
C) increase four fold D) increase to more than double
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) increase to more than double

Explanation:

The best approach is to pick a number that satisfies the rules that x and y are greater than 0. So for example you could choose 25 for y.

The value of x before doubling is then 25 - 50/25 = 23

The value after doubling y will be 50 - 50/50 = 49, which is more than double.

Q:

April 19th, 1986 falls on which day?

A) Saturday B) Wednesday
C) Thursday D) Friday
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Saturday

Explanation:

19th April, 1986 = (1985 years + Period from 1.1.1986 to 19.4.1986)

Odd days in 1600 years = 0

Odd days in 300 years = 1

85 years has 21 leap years + 64 ordinary years.

Number of odd days in 85 years =( 21 x 2 + 64) = 1 odd day.

Jan. Feb. March April

(31 + 28 + 31 + 19) = 109 days

109 days = 15 weeks + 4 days= 4 odd day.

Total number of odd days = (1 + 0 + 1 + 4) = 6.

Given day is Saturday.
