The minimum value of n1(P) over all configurations P of 5 points in the plane in general position (.i.e no three points in P lie on a line) is a) 3 b) 5 c) 2 d) 1 Solution The meaning of this question is little complicated. In easy language the question should be: 354. There are some points in the plane. We have to make a separation between these points by forming a line in such a way that one point could be separate from the others. No 3 points are in a line. Maximum no of methods for plotting the line and minimum no of methods for plotting the line will be (arrangement of points is your choice) Now Answer Is: For Maximize: The number of methods, Points should be drawn in the circumference of the CIRCLE So answer would be the number of total point in the plane. For minimize: The number of methods we should draw 3 points in a TRIANGLE and all other point inside this triangle in such a way that no 3 points could be in a line. If it will be allowed to draw the points in a line then minimum possibilities will be 2 only, because if we take all points in a line then

you can separate only the corner points from the others. For example If we have 10 points then maximum possibilities = 10 and minimum = 3 similarly for 5 points Max = 5, Min = 3 for 19 max= 19 Min = 3 355.

How many 9 digit numbers are possible by using the digits 1,2,3,4,5 which are divisible by 4 if the repetition is allowed? a) 57 b) 56 c) 59 d) 58 Solution: _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (9 digit number) Digits that can be used = 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 For a number to divisible by 4, the last two digits have to be divisible by 4 So, the units digit cannot be 1, 3 or 5 If the units digit is 2, only 12, 32 adn 52 are acceptable as the last two digits If the units digit is 4, only 24 and 44 are acceptable as the last two digits. So, total 5 cases 12,24,32,44,52 are possible for the last two digits.

Now, the first 7 digits of the 9 digit number can be filled in 5^7 ways as each place can be filled by 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. So, desired answer = 5^7*5 = 5^8 This answer is given by Amitesh kumar and is right but he used 57 in place of 5^7 and 58 in place of 5^8, so we made a correction 358.

On planet korba, a solar blast has melted the ice caps on its equator. 9 years after the ice melts, tiny planetoids called echina start growing on the rocks. Echina grows in the form of circle, and the relationship between the diameter of this circle and the age of echina is given by the formula d = 4* (t-9) for t 9 where d represents the diameter in mm and t the number of years since the solar blast.Jagan recorded the radius of some echina at a particular spot as 7mm. How many years back did the solar blast occur? a) 17 b) 21.25 c) 12.25 d) 14.05 Solution some fonts in the question are meaningless, so it is difficult to understand the meaning clearly. If we consider the meaning as d = 4*(t-9) then according to the given condition r = 7 mm so diameter =

14 mm, on putting d = 14, we get 14 = 4*(t-9) or 3.5 = t-9 or t = 12.5 361.A man goes 50Km north , then turned left walked 40Km, then turned right ?

A certain street in nigiet contains 1000 (in base 6) buildings numbered 1 to 1000. How many 3s are used in numbering these buildings? answer: in decimal system total no. of 3's from 1 to 1000 are 100*3 = 300 in base 6, value of 300 = 3*(6^2) + 0*(6^1) + 0*(6^0) = 108 455. The pace length P is the distance between the rear of two consecutive footprints. For men, the formula, n/P = 144 gives an approximate relationship between n and P where, n = number of steps per minute and P = pace length in meters. Bernard knows his pace length is 164cm. The formula applies to Bernard's walking. Calculate Bernard's walking speed in kmph. a) 23.62 b) 8.78 c) 11.39 d) 236.16 Solution n/P = 144 n = 144 * P P = 1.64 n = 144 * 1.64 = 236.16 approx 236 steps per minute we are taking n in integer for it represents no. of steps now v = d / t v = 1.64 * 236 meter/minute v = 387.04 meter / minute or v = (387.04/1000)/(1/60) or v = 387.04*60/1000 = 23.2224 456. Anoop managed to draw 7 circles of equal radii with their centers on the diagonal of a square such that the two extreme circles touch two sides of the square and each middle circle touches two circles on either side. Find the ratio of the radius of the circles to the side of the

square. a) 1:(4+ 7v3) b) 1:(2+ 6v2) c) 1:(2+ 7v2) d) (2+ 7v2):1 Solution Let the radius of circle be r let the side of square be a then diagonal of square= a*sqrt(2) This diagonal length = 12*r + 2r * sqrt(2) (because the extreme circle's radius is perpendicular to side of square.) Thus we get 12*r+2r*sqrt(2)=a*sqrt(2) r(6*sqrt(2)+2)=a r/a=1/(6*sqrt(2)+2) Thus ratio: r:a = 1:(6*sqrt(2)+2) Ans: 1:(6*sqrt(2)+2) 457.

Given a collection of points P in the plane , a 1-set is a point in P that can be separated from the rest by a line, .i.e the point lies on one side of the line while the others lie on the other side. The number of 1-sets of P is denoted by n1(P). The minimum value of n1(P) over all configurations P of 5 points in the plane in general position (.i.e. no three points in P lie on a line) is a) 3 b) 5 c) 2 460. There are some points in the plane. We have to make a separation between these points by forming a line in such a way that one point could be separate from the others. No 3 points are in a line. Maximum no of methods for plotting the line and minimum no of methods for plotting the line will be (arrangement of points is your choice) Now Answer Is: For Maximize: The number of methods, Points should be drawn in the circumference of the CIRCLE So answer would be the number of total point in the plane. For minimize: The number of methods we should draw 3 points in a TRIANGLE and all other point inside this triangle in such a way that no 3 points could be in a line. If it will be allowed to draw the points in a line then minimum possibilities will be 2 only, because if we take all points in a line then you can separate only the corner points from the others. For example If we have 10 points then maximum possibilities = 10 and minimum = 3 similarly for 5 points Max = 5, Min = 3 for 19

Alice and Bob play the following coins-on-a-stack game. 50 coins are stacked one above the other. One of them is a special (gold) coin and the rest are ordinary coins. The goal is to bring the gold coin to the top by repeatedly moving the topmost coin to another position in the stack.Alice starts and the players take turns. A turn consists of moving the coin on the top to a position i below the top coin (0 i 20). We will call this an i-move (thus a 0-move implies doing nothing). The proviso is that an i-move cannot be repeated; for example once a player makes a 2-move, on subsequent turns neither player can make a 2-move. If the gold coin happens to be on top when it's a player's turn then the player wins the game.

Initially, the gold coinis the third coin from the top. Then a) In order to win, Alices first move should be a 0-move. b) In order to win, Alices first move should be a 1-move. c) Alice has no winning strategy. d) In order to win, Alices first move can be a 0-move or a 1-move 465.

Anoop managed to draw 7 circles of equal radii with their centres on the diagonal of a square such that the two extreme circles touch two sides of the square and each middle circle touches two circles on either side. Find the ratio of the radius of the circles to the side of the square. a 1:(2+ 72) b 1:(2+ 62) c 1:(4+ 73) d (2+ 72):1 Solution Let the radius of circle be r let the side of square be a then diagonal of square= a*sqrt(2) This diagonal length = 12*r + 2r * sqrt(2) (because the extreme circle's radius is perpendicular to side of square.) Thus we get 12*r+2r*sqrt(2)=a*sqrt(2) r(6*sqrt(2)+2)=a r/a=1/(6*sqrt(2)+2) Thus ratio: r:a = 1:(6*sqrt(2)+2) Ans: 1:(6*sqrt(2)+2) this answer is given by MUGIL VANNAN, and is right

A hare and a tortoise have a race along a circle of 100 yards diameter. The tortoise goes in one direction and the hare in the other. The hare starts after the tortoise has coverd 1/4 of its distance and that too leisurely. The hare and tortoise meet when the hare has covered only 1/8 of the distance.By what factor should the hare increse its speed so as to tie the race? Solution Total circumfrance = pie*diameter tortoise has covered = 25pie remaining distance = 75 pie 1/8th of total distance = 12.5 pie let the velocity of tortoise = u and that of hare =v on time comparison we get

62.5 pie/u = 12.5 pie/v 5v=u so v=u/5 now for remaining journey time taken by tortoise = 12.5 pie/u so velocity of hare to make a tie = 7*12.5 pie u / 12.5 pie =7u so 7u/u/5 = 35 times answer 614. a hollow cube of size 5cm is taken,with a thickness of 1cm.It is made of smaller cubes of size 1cm.If 1 face of the outer surface of the cube are painted,totally how many faces of the smaller cubes remain unpainted? 615.

Alice starts and the players take turns. A turn consists of moving the coin on the top to a position i below the top coin (0 = i = 20). We will call this an i-move (thus a 0-move implies doing nothing). The proviso is that an i-move cannot be repeated; for example once a player makes a 2-move, on subsequent turns neither player can make a 2move. If the gold coin happens to be on top when it's a player's turn then the player wins the game. Initially, the gold coinis the third coin from the top. Then Alice has no winning strategy.

Since all of them like the cake, they begin quarreling who gets to first cut and have a piece of the cake. One friend suggests that they have a blindfold friend choose from well shuffled set of cards numbered one to six. You check and find that this method works as it should simulating a fair throw of a die. You check by performing multiple simultaneous trials of picking the cards blindfold and throwing a die. You note that the

no of hollow cube shared by corner of cube is 8 no of hollow cube shared by edge of cube is 12*3 = 36 no of hollow cube shared by face of cube is 6(3*3) = 54 total no of hollow cube is: 8+36+54 = 98 total no of faces is 98*6 = 588 as each face contain 25 cubes so, total no of painted cube is 25*4 = 100 No of unpainted cube is = 588-100 = 488 833. Alice and Bob play the following coins-on-a-stack game. 50 coins are stacked one above the other. One of them is a special (gold) coin and the rest are ordinary coins. The goal is to bring the gold coin to the top by repeatedly moving the topmost coin to another position in the stack.Alice starts and the players take turns. A turn consists of moving the coin on the top to a position i below the top coin (0 i 20). We will call this an i-move (thus a 0-move implies doing nothing). The proviso is that an i-move cannot be repeated; for example once a player makes a 2-move, on subsequent turns neither player can make a 2-move. If the gold coin happens to be on top when it's a player's turn then the player wins the game. Initially, the gold coinis the third coin from the top. Then a) In order to win, Alices first move should be a 0-move. b) In order to win, Alices first move should be a 1-move. c) Alice has no winning strategy.

number shown by the method of picking up a card and throwing a real world die, sums to a number between 2 and 12. Which total would be likely to appear more often 8,9 or 10? a) 8 b) All are equally likely c) 9 d) 10 On the Planet, Oz, there are 8 days in a week Sunday to Saturday and another day called Oz day. There are 36 hours in a day and each hours has 90 min while each minute has 60 sec. As on earth, hour hand covers the dial twice every day. Find the approximate angle between the hands of clock on Oz when time is 15.40 am? 36hrs a day that means the clock will be of 18hrs. angle between each hour=360/18=20 thus for 15 am.. angle=15*20=300 now each hour is of 90 min.=20deg so,1min=2/9deg deflection of the hour hand. so for 40min the small hand(hour) will be displaced by 40*2/9=8.89deg=9deg(approx) so total angle of the small hand=9+300=309deg now for the minute hand 90min=360deg thus 1min=4deg so 40min=40*4=160 deg so angle when time is 15.40 is 309-160=149deg :) 837. Number of days is irrelevant. 36 hours a day and hour hand covers dial twice every day means clock will have 36/2=18 numbers on it from 1 to 18( Just like 1 to 12 on earths clock). Total 90 min/hour means 5 min for every number. So 18*5=90min is satisfied just like on earth. Now any dial in the universe will be 360 degrees. So hours hand will cover 360/18=20 deg every 1 hour. Also this means min hand will cover 20 deg every 5 min. 15hrs means hours hand rotated 15*20=300 deg. 40 min means min hand rotated (360/90)*40=160 deg. difference is 300-160 =140 deg.

838. Six friends decide to share a big cake. Since all of them like the cake, they begin quarreling who gets to first cut and have a piece of the cake. One friend suggests that they have a blindfold friend choose from well shuffled set of cards numbered one to six. You check and find that this method works as it should simulate a fair throw of a die. You check by performing multiple simultaneous trials of picking the cards blindfold and throwing a die. You note that the number shown by the method of picking up a card and throwing a real world die, sums to a number between 2 and 12.

Upon asking her grandchild's age she told dat she is as older as many days old as her daughter's age in weeks and as many days as her own age in years. The sum of the three is 130. then how old is the child? a)7 b)8 c)6.5 d)7.5 Let the ages of grandmother, her daughter and the grandchild be x, y and z respectively in years. z in days = y in weeks z * 365 = y * 52 ... (i) Similarly, z in days = x in years z*365 = x ... (ii) Also, x + y + z = 130 ... (iii) Substituting the values of x, y and z in equation (iii) we get, 365*z + (365/52)*z + z = 130 Solving this we get z = 0.3485 in years = 127 days So the child is 127 days old. 840. Alok and Bhanu play the following min-max game,given the expression N=12+X*(Y-Z)

where X,Y,Z are variables representing single digits(0 to 9).Alok would like to maximise N while Bhanu would like to minimise it.Towards this end Alok chooses a single digit number and Bhanu substitutes it for a variable of her choice(X,Y,Z).Alok then chooses the next value and Bhanu, the variable to substitute the value. Finally Alok proposes the value for the remaining variable. Assuming both play to their optimal strategies, the value of N at the end of the game would be?? 841. Alchemy is an occult tradition that arose in the ancient Persian empire. Zosimos of Panopolis was an early alchemist. Zara, reads about Zosimos and decides to try some experiments. One day, she collects two buckets, the first containing one litre of ink and the second containing one litre of cola. Suppose she takes one cup of ink out of the first bucket and pours it into the second bucket. After mixing she takes one cup of the mixture from the second bucket and pours it back into the first bucket. Which one of the following statements holds now? a.There is more cola in the first bucket than ink in the second bucket. b.There is as much cola in the first bucket as there is ink in the second bucket. c.There is less cola in the first bucket than ink in the second bucket. Solution let the size of cup = x litre then after first step ink in first bucket = 1-x and ink in second = x in total 1+x amount of mixture now we have to pour 1 cup means x litre of solution from second bucket to first in this much of solution ink will be [x/(1+x)]*x] = x^2/(1+x) so total ink in the first bucket = 1-x+[x^2/(1+x)]

so cola in first bucket = 1-[1-x+{x^2/(1+x)}] = x-[x^2/(1+x)] similarly total ink in second bucket = x - amount of ink poured in first = x - [x^2/(1+x)] so cola in the first bucket = ink in the second bucket 842. A Roman was born the first day of the 35th year before Christ and died the first day of the 35th year after Christ. How many years did he live? There is no year 00 in the calendar so, the years would be -35,-34,33,...-02,-01,+01,02,...+34. Total years = 69.

843.It is dark in my bedroom and I want to get two socks of the same color from my drawer, which contains 24 red and 24 blue socks. How many socks do I have to take from the drawer to get at least two socks of the same color? 844. Six bells commence tolling together and toll at intervals of 2, 4, 6, 8 10 and 12 seconds respectively. In 30 minutes, how many times do they toll together? Solution: If you find LCM of the give intervals, you will get the point of time when all of them toll together. LCM of 2,4,6,8,10,12 is 120sec = 2min. Every 2 min they toll together.So in 30 min they toll together 15 times. 845. The pacelength P is the distance between the rear of two consecutive footprints. For men, the formula, n/P = 144 gives an approximate relationship between n and P where, n = number of steps per minute and P = pacelength in meters. Bernard knows his pacelength is 164cm. The formula applies to Bernard's walking. Calculate Bernard's walking speed in kmph. a) 23.62 b) 8.78 c) 11.39 d) 236.16

Since P=164cm or that is equal to 1.64m. So n/p=144 or n=144*P or n=144*1.64 steps/min Distance moved by Bernard is 144*1.64*1.64 meter/min(in mints n dist in metres) So that is equal to 144*1.64*1.64*60/1000 kmph=23.62kmph 846.

Paul the octopus who has been forecasting the outcome of FIFA world cup matches with tremendous accuracy has now been invited to predict ICC world cup matches in 2011. We will assume that the world cup contenders have been divided into 2 groups of 9 teams each. Each team in a group plays the other teams in the group. The top two teams from each group enter the semi finals ( after which the winner is decided by knockout). However, Paul has a soft spot for India and when India plays any team, Paul always backs India. Alas, his predictions on matches involving India are right only 2 out of 3 times. In order to qualify for the semi finals, it is sufficient for India to win 7 of its group matches. What is the probability that India will win the ICC world cup? (a) (2/3)^10 (b) (2/3)^9 + 8/3 * (2/3)^9 (c) 8/3 * (2/3)^9 (d) (2/3)^10 + 8/3*(2/3)^9 We have two chances to win the world cup. Either India can win all 10matches or Win 7 out of 8 group matches + win the semi final and

final matches. Case 1: To win all 10, probability is (2/3)^10. Case 2: Probability of winning 7mathces out of 8= (2/3)^7 and Probability of Loosing the 1 match= 1/3. This process can occur in 8 ways. probability= 8*((2/3)^7 * 1/3) To win semi final and final match probability is (2/3)^2 Total probability=8*((2/3)^7 * 1/3) * (2/3)^2 = 8/3 * (2/3)^9. So total probability, Case1+Case 2= (2/3)^10 + 8/3 * (2/3)^9 900. The difference of two numbers is 1365. On dividing the larger number by the smaller, we get 6 as quotient and the 15 as remainder.

One of them is a special (gold) coin and the rest are ordinary coins. The goal is to bring the gold coin to the top by repeatedly moving the topmost coin to another position in the stack. Alice starts and the players take turns. A turn consists of moving the coin on the top to a position i below the top coin (0 = i = 20). We will call this an i-move (thus a 0-move implies doing nothing). The proviso is that an i-move cannot be repeated; for example once a player makes a 2-move, on subsequent turns neither player can make a 2move. If the gold coin happens to be on top when it's a player's turn then the player wins the game. Initially, the gold coinis the third coin from the top. Then a)Alice has no winning strategy. b))In order to win, Alice's first move should be a 1-move. c)In order to win, Alice's first move can be a 0-move or a 1-move. d)In order to win, Alice's first move should be a 0-move.
