The given figure can be labelled as shown :

63-11484548871.png image

The spaces P, Q and R have to be shaded by three different colours definitely (since each of these three spaces lies adjacent to the other two).
Now, in order that no two adjacent spaces be shaded by the same colour, the spaces T, U and S must be shaded with the colours of the spaces P, Q and R respectively.
Also the spaces X, V and W must be shaded with the colours of the spaces S, T and U respectively i.e. with the colours of the spaces R, P and Q respectively. Thus, minimum three colour pencils are required.

C) Cannot be compared, as the total amount of investment is not given D) 11% stock at 143
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 9 3/4% stock at 117

Let investment in each case be Rs. (143 x 117).

 

Income in 1st case = Rs.11143 x 143 x 117 = Rs. 1287.
Income in 2nd case = Rs.394×117 x 143 x 117= Rs. 1394.25

 

Clearly, 9 3/4% stock at 117 is better.

Q:

It costs Rs. p each to send the first thousand messsages and Rs. q to send each subsequent one . If r is greater than 1,000, how many Rupees will it cost to send r messages ?

A) 1000 (r - p) + pq B) 1000 p + qr
C) 1000 (r - q) + pr D) 1000(p - q) + qr
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 1000(p - q) + qr

Explanation:

We need to find the total cost to send r messsages, r > 1000.

The first 1000 messsages will cost Rs.p each (Or) 

The total cost of first 1000 messsages = Rs.1000p

The remaining (r - 1000) messsages will cost Rs.q each (Or)

The cost of the (r - 1000) = Rs.(r - 1000)y

 

Therefore, total cost = 1000p + rq - 1000q

= 1000(p - q) + qr

A) 18 cm B) 12 cm
C) 16 cm D) 14 cm
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 14 cm

Explanation:

circumference of a circle = 2πr

 

=> 2 × 22/7 × r – r = 37

 

=> 37/7 × r = 37

 

=> r = 7 cm.

 

Diameter D = 2r = 7×2 = 14 cm.

Q:

The length of a rope in meter by which a cow must be tethered in order that she may be able to graze an area of 2826 sq.m is ?

A) 15 mts B) 30 mts
C) 24 mts D) 36 mts
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 30 mts

Explanation:

The cow can graze an area of 2826 sq.m i.e it is able to cover area of circle of 2826 sq.m

 

Therefore, πr2 =2826
r2 =(2826×7/22) = 899.18 = 900
r = 30 m.

 

Therefore, the radius of the circle implies the length of the rope = 30 mts.
