Q:

If x = √8 - √7, y = √6 - √5 and z = √10 - 3, which of the following is true  ?

A) x > y < z B) x < y < z
C) x > y > z D) z < x < y
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) z < x < y

Explanation:

x = √8 - √7 = 1/(√8 + √7) and y = √6 - √5 = 1/(√6 + √5) and z = √10 - 3 = 1/(√10 + 3)

As (√8 + √7) > (√6 + √5), (√8 - √7) < (√6 - √5)

As (√10 + 3) > (√8 + √7) > (√6 + √5)

z < x < y.

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 41.25 days

Explanation:

Given Karthik can cover the distance of 200 kms resting 2 hrs per day in 22 days.

 

Let the initial speed be '1'

 

Hence, Time = 22(24hrs - 2)

 

Noe new speed = 2/3

 

Let the number of days he take be 'D'

 

Therefore, 2224-2x3200=D24-2x2250

 

D = 11 x 3 x 5/4 = 41.25 days. = 41 1/4 days.
