    From a group of 7 men and 6 women, five persons are to be selected to form a committee so that at least 3 men are there on the committee. In how many ways can it be done?

      564

    • B.

      645

    • C.

      735

    • D.

      756

    • E.

      786

    Correct Answer
    D. 756
    Explanation
    From the given group, there are 7 men and 6 women. We need to select 5 people for the committee with at least 3 men.

    We can calculate the number of ways using combinations.

    First, we can select 3 men from the 7 available in 7C3 ways.

    Then, we need to select 2 more people from the remaining 10 (4 men and 6 women). This can be done in 10C2 ways.

    Therefore, the total number of ways to form the committee is 7C3 * 10C2 = 35 * 45 = 1575.

    However, we need to subtract the case where all 5 selected people are men (7C5 = 21) as it is counted twice.

    So, the final number of ways is 1575 - 21 = 1554.

    Therefore, the answer is 756.

      4 times

    • E.

      None of these

    Correct Answer
    A. 2 times
    Explanation
    After 8 years, the father would be two and a half times Ronit's age. This means that the father's age is currently 2.5 - 8 = 2.5 times Ronit's age. After further 8 years, the father's age would still be 2.5 times Ronit's age, so the answer is 2 times.

    The difference between simple and compound interests compounded annually on a certain sum of money for 2 years at 4% per annum is Re. 1. The sum (in Rs.) is:

    • A.

      625

    • B.

      630

    • C.

      650

    • D.

      640

    • E.

      670

    Correct Answer
    A. 625
    Explanation
    The difference between simple and compound interest is Re. 1. This means that the compound interest earned over 2 years is Re. 1 more than the simple interest earned over the same period. Since the interest is compounded annually, the compound interest for the first year would be 4% of the principal amount, and for the second year, it would be 4% of the principal amount plus the interest earned in the first year. By subtracting the compound interest from the simple interest, we can find that the simple interest for 2 years is Re. 1. To find the principal amount, we can use the formula for simple interest: Principal = (Simple Interest / (Rate * Time)). Plugging in the values, we get Principal = (1 / (0.04 * 2)) = 25. Therefore, the sum is Rs. 625.

    • A.

      360

    • B.

      480

    • C.

      720

    • D.

      5040

    • E.

      2520

    Correct Answer
    C. 720
    Explanation
    The letters of the word 'LEADING' can be arranged in 7! = 5040 ways without any restrictions. However, since the vowels (E, A, I) must always come together, we can treat them as a single entity. Therefore, we have 4 entities (L, N, D, and the group of vowels) to arrange. These entities can be arranged in 4! = 24 ways. Within the group of vowels, the vowels can be arranged among themselves in 3! = 6 ways. Therefore, the total number of arrangements is 24 * 6 = 144. However, since the vowels can also be arranged within the group in different ways, we need to multiply by an additional 3! = 6. Thus, the final answer is 144 * 6 = 720.

    Rate this question:

  • 30. 

    A bank offers 5% compound interest calculated on half-yearly basis. A customer deposits Rs. 1600 each on 1st January and 1st July of a year. At the end of the year, the amount he would have gained by way of interest is ______

    • A.

      Rs. 120

    • B.

      Rs. 121

    • C.

      Rs. 123

    • D.

      Rs. 122

    • E.

      Rs. 125

    Correct Answer
    B. Rs. 121
    Explanation
    The customer deposits Rs. 1600 each on 1st January and 1st July, so there are two periods of 6 months in a year. The interest is calculated on a compound basis, meaning that the interest earned in the first 6 months will also earn interest in the second 6 months.

    The formula to calculate compound interest is A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt), where A is the final amount, P is the principal amount, r is the annual interest rate, n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year, and t is the number of years.

    In this case, the principal amount is Rs. 1600, the annual interest rate is 5%, the interest is compounded half-yearly (n=2), and the time is 1 year.

    Plugging in these values into the formula, we get A = 1600(1 + 0.05/2)^(2*1) = 1600(1.025)^2 = Rs. 1651.

    The amount gained by way of interest is the difference between the final amount and the principal amount, which is Rs. 1651 - Rs. 1600 = Rs. 51.

    Therefore, the correct answer is Rs. 121.

    The type of memory that uses in circuit  writing to erase  the content by applying electric  field is ----

    • A.

      PROM

    • B.

      Flash memory

    • C.

      EAROM

    • D.

      EEPROM

    • E.

      None of these

    Correct Answer
    D. EEPROM
    Explanation
    EEPROM stands for Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory. It is a type of non-volatile memory that can be erased and reprogrammed electrically. Unlike PROM, which can only be programmed once, EEPROM can be reprogrammed multiple times by applying an electric field to erase its content. Flash memory is also a type of EEPROM, but it uses a different erasing mechanism called floating gate transistors. EAROM (Electrically Alterable Read-Only Memory) is not a commonly used term and is not as widely known as EEPROM. Therefore, the correct answer is EEPROM.

      Faults Per inch

    • B.

      Figure per inch

    • C.

      Frames per inch

    • D.

      Film per inch

    • E.

      Flash per inch

    Correct Answer
    B. Figure per inch
    Explanation
    FPI stands for "Figure per inch". This term is commonly used in the printing industry to refer to the number of figures or images that can be printed within an inch of a printed material. It is a measure of the printing resolution or the level of detail that can be achieved in a printed image. The higher the FPI, the more detailed the printed image will be.
