Answer : 1. "Rs. 620"
Explanation :
Answer: A) Rs. 620 Explanation: Let the C.P of one item is Rs. P and that of other is Rs. (7500 - P) According to the data given C.P = S.P => Px(116/100) + (7500-P)x(86/100) = 7500 => 30P = 105000 => P = 3500 Required difference between selling prices = Rs. [(3500/100) x 116] - [(4000/100) x 86] = 4060-3440 = Rs. 620

Answer : 2. "North"
Explanation :
Answer: B) North Explanation: The azimuth originates at true North i.e, the azimuth originates from the north point. It is a measure of how far an object forms the observer's north point. Azimuth is a technical mapping term which is used to describe the direction of an angle between north and south on a compass circle through which the circle line passes. It is the most common military method to express direction. When using an azimuth, the point from which the azimuth originates is the center of an imaginary circle.

Answer : 1. "Stratification"
Explanation :
Answer: A) Stratification Explanation: Stratification as actually the settling down of sediments with different properties to form layers/strata over years. Stratification especially occurs on the bed of water bodies such as oceans. Stratified sedimentary rocks are used to study the ecological conditions over previous years/eras. The other choices like Windstorms, Glacial Ice and Stream water are mediums which sediments are transported.
Q: A vessel contains 20 liters of a mixture of milk and water in the ratio 3:2. 10 liters of the mixture are removed and replaced with an equal quantity of pure milk. If the process is repeated once more, find the ratio of milk and water in the final mixture obtained ? 2654 05b5cc6dce4d2b4197774e960

Answer : 4. "9:1"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 9:1 Explanation: Milk = 3/5 x 20 = 12 liters, water = 8 liters If 10 liters of mixture are removed, amount of milk removed = 6 liters and amount of water removed = 4 liters. Remaining milk = 12 - 6 = 6 liters Remaining water = 8 - 4 = 4 liters 10 liters of pure milk are added, therefore total milk = (6 + 10) = 16 liters. The ratio of milk and water in the new mixture = 16:4 = 4:1 If the process is repeated one more time and 10 liters of the mixture are removed, then amount of milk removed = 4/5 x 10 = 8 liters. Amount of water removed = 2 liters. Remaining milk = (16 - 8) = 8 liters. Remaining water = (4 -2) = 2 liters. Now 10 lts milk is added => total milk = 18 lts The required ratio of milk and water in the final mixture obtained = (8 + 10):2 = 18:2 = 9:1.

Answer : 1. "100"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 100 Explanation: Given 373+353+283-3x37x35x28372+352+282-37x35-35x28-37x28 It is in the form of a3+b3+c3-3abca2+b2+c2-ab-bc-ca= a + b + c Here a = 37, b = 35 & c = 28 => a + b + c = 37 + 35 + 28 = 100 Therefore, = 100
