Cash price = $21 000

Deposit = 10% × $21 000 = $2100 

Loan amount = $21000 − $2100 = $18900

I=p x r x t/100 

I=11340

Total amount = 18900 + 11340 = $30240

Regular payment = total amount /number of payments

P(black ball)=3/12

P(red ball)=5/12

P(black or red)=3/12+5/12=2/3

When A runs 1000 m, B runs 900 m and when B runs 800 m, C runs 700 m.

When B runs 900 m, distance that C runs = (900 x 700)/800 = 6300/8 = 787.5 m.

In a race of 1000 m, A beats C by (1000 - 787.5) = 212.5 m to C.

In a race of 600 m, the number of meters by which A beats C

= (600 x 212.5)/1000 = 127.5 m.

A's 1 days work = 1/12 

B's 1 days work =1/6

Therefore, (A+B)'s 1 day's work= 1/12 + 1/6 = 1/4       

Therefore, Time taken by both to finish the whole work = 114 = 4 days

Alternatively :

Efficiency of A =100/12 =8.33%

Efficiency of B =100/6=16.66%

Combined efficiency of A and B both = 8.33+16.66=25%

Therefore, Time taken by both to finish the work (working together) =100/25= 4days

Here, s={H,T} and E={H}
P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 1/2

Speed of the train relative to man

= (125/10) m/sec = (25/2) m/sec.

[(25/2) x (18/5)] km/hr = 45 km/hr.

Let the speed of the train be 'x' km/hr.

Then, relative speed = (x - 4) km/hr.

x - 4 = 45 => x = 49 km/hr.

Amount = 80001+51002

= 8000 x 21/20 x 21/20 

= Rs. 8820
