Since it does not matter what order the committee members are chosen in, the combination formula is used.

Committees are always a combination unless the problem states that someone like a president has higher hierarchy over another person. If the committee is ordered, then it is a permutation.

C(17,7)= 19,448

The year 1985 is an ordinary year. So, it has 1 odd day.

So, the day on 19th June, 1985 will be 1 day after the day on 19th June, 1984.

But, 19th June,1984 is Monday

S0, 19th June, 1985 is Tuesday.

To cover a distance of 800 kms using a 800 cc engine, the amount of diesel required = 80 litres.

=> the amount of diesel required to cover a distance of 1000 kms = 1000 x 80/800 = 100 litres

However, the vehicle uses a 1200 cc engine and it is given that the amount of diesel required varies directly as the engine capacity.

i.e., for instance, if the capacity of engine doubles, the diesel requirement will double too.

Therefore, with a 1200 cc engine, quantity of diesel required = 1200/800 x 100 = 150 litres.

Let varun's age = x yrs.

From the given conditions,

x+1  =  2(x-12)

x = 25 years.

Length of the first carpet = (1.44)(6) = 8.64 cm

Area of the second carpet = 8.64(1 + 40/100) 6 (1 + 25/100)

= 51.84(1.4)(5/4) sq m = (12.96)(7) sq m

Cost of the second carpet = (45)(12.96 x 7) = 315 (13 - 0.04) = 4095 - 12.6 = Rs. 4082.40

Let p = Rs. 100.

Then, S.I is Rs. 50 and time = 5 years. 

∴ R = 100×50100×5= 10% p.a.

Now, p = Rs. 12,000 , T = 3 years and R = 10% p.a.

C.I. = Rs. 12000×1+101003-1= Rs. 3972
