The given number series 9, 19, 21, 43, 45, ... follows a pattern that

ALternately (x 2 + 1) and  (x 1 + 2)

9 

9 x 2 + 1 = 19

19 x 1 + 2 = 21

21 x 2 + 1 = 43

43 x 1 + 2 = 45

45 x 2 + 1 = 91

Hence, the next number in the given sequence is 91.

Let distance = x km.
Time taken at 3 kmph : dist/speed = x/3 = 20 min late.
time taken at 4 kmph : x/4 = 30 min earlier
difference between time taken : 30-(-20) = 50 mins = 50/60 hours.
x/3- x/4 = 50/60
x/12 = 5/6
x = 10 km.

It is Charcoal which is black when we buy it or when not being used. It gets red in appearance when put in use means to say when burning. And eventually when it's been consumed by fire or after getting burned out or used up, changes into ashes which look grey in color.

The given number series follows 5, 4, 9, 32, 308 pattern that

5

5 x 1 - 1 = 4

4 x 3 - 3 = 9

9 x 5 - 5 = 40 (not equals to 32)

40 x 7 - 7 = 273

Hence, the odd man in the given number series is 32.

HIS RECENT SUCCESS HAS MADE HIM MORE ARROGANT THAN WHAT HE USED.

We can get this by any of two explanations.

Answer 1: 41

7 = 3 + 4  = 34

Similarly, 5 = 4 + 1  = 41

Answer 2 :  41

7 - 3 = 4  => 34

Similarly, 5 - 4 = 1  => 41
