kl>k+1l+1 for (k,l) > 0 and  k > l 

Let     k = x+1    and   l = x

Therefore, x+1x>(x+1)+1(x)+1

 (x + 1) > x

Therefore, log(x+1)log(x)>log(x+2)log(x+1)

⇒logxx+1 >logx+1x+2

Let the ratio of initial quantity of oils be 'x' => 4x, 5x & 8x.
Let k be the quantity of third variety of oil in the final mixture.
Let the ratio of initial quantity of oils be 'y'
From given details,
4x + 5 = 5y ..... (1)
5x + 10 = 7y .....(2)
8x + k = 9y ......(3)

By solving (1) & (2), we get
x = 5 & y = 5

From (3) => k = 5

Therefore, quantity of third variety of oil was 9y = 9(5) = 45kg.

6.72/100 = 672/10000 = 42/625

Because each vertice of the square is the center of a circle
(1/4) part of the total area of each circle inside of the square.
(3/4) part of the total area of each circle outside of the square.
Thus total area outside the square is 434×227×3.5×3.5 = 115.3955 sq cm.

From the given data,

let the initial quantity of the mixture = 5x

Then,

$$\begin{gathered} 2x - 163x - 24 + 40 = 14 \\ 8x - 64 = 3x + 16 \\ 5x = 80 \\ x = 16 lit \end{gathered}$$

Then the initial quantity of the mixture = 5x = 5 x 16 = 80 lit.

Given Word is PROMISE.

Number of letters in the word PROMISE = 7

Number of ways 7 letters can be arranged = 7! ways

Number of Vowels in word PROMISE = 3 (O, I, E)

Number of ways the vowels can be arranged that 3 Vowels come together = 5! x 3! ways

Now, the number of ways of arrangements so that three vowels should not come together

= 7! - (5! x 3!) ways = 5040 - 720 = 4320.

Taxonomy is the science dealing with classification.

Similarly, pedology deals with the study of soils.

Hence, Taxonomy : Classification :: Pedology :Soils.

Let the speed of the faster train be 'S' kmph

Then speed of the slower train will be '(S-5)' kmph

Time taken by faster train = 350/S hrs

Time taken by slower train = 350/(S-5) hrs

 350s-5 - 350s = 2 hrs 20 min = 213 = 73

=> S = 30 km/hr.
