Say total cost price of tea is x.
Then total profit at a rate of 15% is = (15x/100)
According to question,
15x/100 = 60
so x = 400
C.p of the tea is Rs. 400.
so total selling price will be = (400+60) = Rs.460
so the quantity of the tea will be = (460/5.75) = 80kg.

The path that data takes from source to destination is called a Channel. A channel is a communication medium. A channel has a certain capacity for transmitting information. 

The "capacity" of a channel is the theoretical upper-limit to the bit rate over a given channel that will result in negligible errors. Channel capacity is often measured by its Bandwidth in Hz or its data rate in bits per second.

But at x=-1/3, log x is not defined.

The only admissible value of x is 1.

Total coins 30

In that,

1 rupee coins 20

50 paise coins 10

Probability of total 1 rupee coins =  20C11

Probability that 11 coins are picked = 30C11

Required probability of a coin now picked from the box is 1 rupee = 20C11/30C11 = 2/3.

Seats for Mathematics, Physics and Biology in a school are in the ratio 5 : 7 : 8.

Seats for Mathematics, Physics and Biology in a school are 5x, 7x and 8x.

There is a proposal to increase these seats by 40%, 50% and 75% respectively.

Then Seats for Mathematics, Physics and Biology in a school will be

1.4 X 5x, 1.5 X 7x and 1.75 X 8x and

ratio will be 7 : 10.5 : 14  => 2:3:4.

The light from the sun takes about 8 minutes to reach the Earth after it has been emitted from the sun's surface.

The time it takes for light to reach planets in our Solar System varies from about 3 minutes for Mercury to about 5.3 hours for Pluto.

O should be immediately followed by M ie, the order OM should be followed. N should be immediately followed by L ie, the order NL should be followed. One play is staged between k and L and N or O should not be the first or last play. So, the order is

Monday             K

Tuesday            N

Wednesday        L

Thursday           O

Friday               M

Let Karan’s present age be x years and Shiva’s present age be y years.
Then, according to the first condition,
x - 10 = 3(y - 10) or x - 3y = - 20 ..(1)
Now, Karan’s age after 10 years = (x + 10) years
Shiva’s age after 10 years = (y + 10)
(x + 10) = 2 (y + 10) or x - 2y = 10 ..(2)
Solving (1) and (2), we get x = 70 and y = 30
Karan’s age = 70 years and Shiva’s age = 30 years.
