Let 'd' be the distance and 's' be the speed and 't' be the time
d=sxt
45 mins = 3/4 hr and 48 mins = 4/5 hr
As distance is same in both cases;
s(3/4) = (s-5)(4/5)
3s/4 = (4s-20)/5
15s = 16s-80
s = 80 km.
=> d = 80 x 3/4 = 60 kms.

Let a and b are the numbers.Then a+b is 12 and ab is 35.

a+b/ab = 12/35

1/b + 1/a = 12/35

Number of ways of choosing 2 black pens from 5 black pens in 5C2 ways.

Number of ways of choosing 2 white pens from 3 white pens in 3C2 ways.

Number of ways of choosing 2 red pens from 4 red pens in 4C2ways.

By the Counting Principle, 2 black pens, 2 white pens, and 2 red pens can be chosen in 10 x 3 x 6 =180 ways.

let the radius of the pool be Rft

Radius of the pool including the wall = (R+4)ft

Area of the concrete wall = πR+42-R2=πR+4+RR+4-R = 8πR+2 sq feet

=> 8πR+2 = 1125πR2 =>11R2 =200R+2

Radius of the pool R = 20ft

Let x128=162x

Then, $$\begin{gathered} x2=128×162 =64×2×18×9 \\ =82×62×32 = 8×6×3 =144 \end{gathered}$$

∴x=12

Given that, log 64 = 1.8061

 i.e log43=1.8061 

--> 3 log 4 = 1.8061

--> log 4 = 0.6020

--> 2 log 4 = 1.2040

⇒log42=1.2040

Therefore, log 16 = 1.2040

Ratio of Milk and water in a vessel A is 4 : 1

Ratio of Milk and water in a vessel B is 3 : 2

Ratio of only milk in vessel A = 4 : 5

Ratio of only milk in vessel B = 3 : 5

Let 'x' be the quantity of milk in vessel C

Now as equal quantities are taken out from both vessels A & B

=> 4/5     :     3/5
               x 
  3/5-x          x - 4/5

=> 35-xx-45 = 11 (equal quantities)

=> x = 7/10

Therefore, quantity of milk in vessel C  = 7

=> Water quantity = 10 - 7 = 3

Hence the ratio of milk & water in vessel 3 is 7 : 3 

Let us assume that the lotion has 50% alcohol and 50% water.
ratio = 1:1
As the total solution is 9ml
alcohol = water = 4.5ml
Now if we want the quantity of alcohol = 30%
The quantity of water = 70%
The new ratio = 3:7
Let x ml of water be added
We get,
4.54.5+x = 37
=> x=6
Hence 6ml of water is added.
