C) c	D) d

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) a

Explanation:

We know that d=√2s

Given diagonal = 20 cm

=> s = 20/ $\sqrt{2}$ cm

Q:

A problem is given to three students whose chances of solving it are 1/2, 1/3 and 1/4 respectively. What is the probability that the problem will be solved?

A) 1/4	B) 1/2
C) 3/4	D) 7/12

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 3/4

Explanation:

Let A, B, C be the respective events of solving the problem and $A, B, C$ be the respective events of not solving the problem. Then A, B, C are independent event

$∴ A, B, C$ are independent events

Now, P(A) = 1/2 , P(B) = 1/3 and P(C)=1/4

$P (A) = \frac{1}{2}, P (B) = \frac{2}{3}, P (C) = \frac{3}{4}$

$∴$ P( none solves the problem) = P(not A) and (not B) and (not C)

= $P (A \cap B \cap C)$

= $P (A) P (B) P (C)$ $[∵ A, B, C a r e I n d e p e n d e n t]$

= $\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{2}{3} \times \frac{3}{4}$

= $\frac{1}{4}$

Hence, P(the problem will be solved) = 1 - P(none solves the problem)

= $1 - \frac{1}{4}$ = 3/4

$\frac{1 . 5^{3} + 4 . 7^{3} + 3 . 8^{3} - 3 x 1.5 x 4.7 x 3.8}{1 . 5^{2} + 4 . 7^{2} + 3 . 8^{2} - 1.5 x 4.7 - 4.7 x 3.8 - 1.5 x 3.8}$

A) 6	B) 8
C) 10	D) 12

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 10

Explanation:

Apply $\frac{a^{3} + b^{3} + c^{3} - 3 a b c}{a^{2} + b^{2} + c^{2} - a b - b c - c a} = a + b + c$

Hence the answer is 1.5 + 4.7 + 3.8 = 10.
