The given equation can be factored as (x - 2)(x - 2) = 0. This means that (x - 2) is equal to 0. Therefore, x must be equal to 2.

Based on the given statements, it can be concluded that Jorge runs faster than both Drew and Bernard. Since Drew also runs faster than Bernard, it can be inferred that Jorge runs faster than Bernard as well. Therefore, the third statement is true.

If all Alakazams are Open Sesame, and some Hocus Pocus are Alakazams, it is true that some Hocus Pocus are Open Sesame. This is because if all Alakazams are Open Sesame and some Hocus Pocus are Alakazams, then those Hocus Pocus that are Alakazams are also Open Sesame. Therefore, it can be concluded that some Hocus Pocus are Open Sesame.

Based on the given information, we can deduce that Charlie is taller than Alex, and Daniel is shorter than Alex. Therefore, Charlie must be the tallest among all the students mentioned.

Based on the given statements, we can deduce that Aries is the oldest, Joseph is not the oldest, and John is not the youngest. Since Aries is the oldest and John is not the youngest, it means that Joseph is the youngest among the three brothers. Therefore, the correct answer is Joseph.

A book that has 400 pages can be classified as either a novel or a story book because it meets the criteria for both classifications. It has at least 300 pages, which qualifies it as a novel, and it also has at most 500 pages, which qualifies it as a story book. Therefore, we can confidently say that the book is either a novel or a story book.

The correct answer is 1 because the expression involves subtracting the product of 123456788 and 123456790 from 1234567892. The product of these two numbers is smaller than 1234567892, so subtracting it from the larger number will result in a positive value of 1.

Since Amir always lies, his statement of "I did not eat the cookie" must be false. Therefore, Amir did eat the cookie. On the other hand, Jake always tells the truth, so his statement of "I did not eat the cookie" must be true. Therefore, Jake did not eat the cookie. Emily can conclude that Amir stole her cookies based on their statements.

If Anthony says that they always go to McDonald's to celebrate their win, and he is currently at McDonald's, it implies that his team has won the game. This is because according to his statement, going to McDonald's is directly linked to their team winning the game. Therefore, if he is at McDonald's, it can be concluded that his team has indeed won the game.

Based on the information given, if we assume that both men are telling the truth, then there is a contradiction because both men claim to be a different person. Therefore, we can conclude that at least one of them is lying. Since the guy in the blue shirt claims to be Andrew, and we know that at least one of them is lying, it means that the guy in the blue shirt is lying. Therefore, the guy in the red shirt is Andrew, and he is wearing a red shirt.

The given question follows a pattern where each letter in the first set is shifted three positions forward in the alphabet to obtain the corresponding letter in the second set. Applying the same pattern, the letter 'E' in the second set would shift three positions forward to become 'H', the letter 'K' would become 'N', 'N' would become 'Q', and 'S' would become 'V'. Therefore, the correct answer is EJOT.

The correct answer is B. 556. This is the correct answer because when you add 555 + 555 + 555 + 555 + 555, you get a total of 2775.

The given expression is the product of two square roots, √-2 and √-3. When multiplying square roots, the product of the numbers under the radical sign is taken outside the radical sign. Therefore, the product of √-2 and √-3 is equal to √( -2 * -3) which simplifies to √6. Therefore, the correct answer is √6.

There are 6 more baseballs than basketballs, so if we assume there are x basketballs, then there are x + 6 baseballs. There are fewer softballs than footballs, so if we assume there are y footballs, then there are y + 1 softballs. The total number of balls is given as 4 + 6 + 8 + 10 = 28. We can set up the equation x + (x + 6) + (y + 1) + y = 28. Simplifying the equation gives us 2x + 2y + 7 = 28. Solving for x and y gives us x = 5 and y = 7. Therefore, there are 8 footballs.

In the given ratio 4:6, let's assume that there are 4 girls and 6 boys in the computer coaching class. If 50% of girls are degree holders, then 50% of 4 is 2 girls who are degree holders. Similarly, if 40% of boys are degree holders, then 40% of 6 is 2.4 boys who are degree holders. Since we cannot have a fraction of a person, we round down to 2 boys who are degree holders. Therefore, the total number of degree holders is 2 girls + 2 boys = 4. The total number of candidates in the class is 4 girls + 6 boys = 10. The percentage of non-degree holders is (10 - 4) / 10 * 100 = 6 / 10 * 100 = 60%. However, since we were asked for the percentage of candidates who are non-degree holders, the correct answer is 100% - 60% = 40%.

Based on the information given, we know that the daughter(s) who received 5 cookies always lie and the daughter(s) who received 7 cookies always tell the truth. Since at least one daughter spoke the truth, we can conclude that Erica received 7 cookies (because she said they have a total of 17 cookies). Therefore, Danielle and Fiona must have received 5 cookies each. So, the total number of cookies the daughters received is 17.

If Huey stole the cookie, then his statement would be true, but Donald knows that all three of them are lying. If Dewey stole the cookie, then Huey's statement would also be true, which contradicts the fact that all three of them are lying. Therefore, the only possibility is that Louie stole the cookie.

Based on the given information, we can determine the individual work rates of A, B, and C. Let's assume that the total work is represented by 120 units (a common multiple of 20, 30, and 40).

From the first statement, we know that A and B together can finish the work in 20 days. Therefore, their combined work rate is 120 units / 20 days = 6 units/day.

From the second statement, we know that B and C together can finish the work in 30 days. Therefore, their combined work rate is 120 units / 30 days = 4 units/day.

From the third statement, we know that C and A together can finish the work in 40 days. Therefore, their combined work rate is 120 units / 40 days = 3 units/day.

Now, let's subtract the combined work rates from the individual work rates to find the work rates of each person.
A's work rate = A and B's work rate - B and C's work rate = 6 units/day - 4 units/day = 2 units/day.
B's work rate = A and B's work rate - C and A's work rate = 6 units/day - 3 units/day = 3 units/day.
C's work rate = B and C's work rate - C and A's work rate = 4 units/day - 3 units/day = 1 unit/day.

Since A's work rate is 2 units/day, it will take him 120 units / 2 units/day = 60 days to finish the job alone. Therefore, the correct answer is 60.

The pattern in the given series is that the first and third letters of each group are in alphabetical order, while the second letter is the reverse of the first letter. Additionally, the third letter of each group is the reverse of the second letter. Applying this pattern, the correct answer is "VTW" as the first and third letters are in alphabetical order ("V" and "W"), and the second letter is the reverse of the first letter ("T").

Based on the given information, if Eric goes to Casa Bonita, he will eat 5 or more taco salads, and if he eats 5 or more taco salads, he will have a stomach ache. However, the question states that Eric did not have a stomach ache on a given day. This implies that he did not eat 5 or more taco salads, which in turn implies that he did not go to Casa Bonita. Therefore, the correct answer is "No, Eric definitely did not go to Casa Bonita."

In this scenario, both Aldith and Chedomir claim to not be knaves. If either of them were the jester, they would have the ability to lie and could potentially be a knave. However, Bogdan openly admits to being a knave, which means he cannot be the knight who always tells the truth. Therefore, the only option left is that Bogdan is the jester, as the jester can either tell the truth or lie.

If Ravi's salary was reduced by 25%, it means he is currently earning 75% of his original salary. To bring his salary back to the original level, we need to calculate the percentage increase from 75% to 100%. By using the formula (new value - original value) / original value * 100, we can calculate that the percentage increase needed is (100 - 75) / 75 * 100 = 33.33%. Therefore, the correct answer is 33.33%.

If 7 cows need 7 days to eat 7 grass fields, it means that each cow takes 1 day to eat 1 grass field. Therefore, if there are 5 cows, it would still take 1 day for each cow to eat 1 grass field. Hence, it would take 5 cows 1 day to eat 5 grass fields.

No, we cannot conclude that Charlie played Roulette. The given information only states that Charlie lost all 10 rounds in a particular game, but it does not specify that the game was Roulette. Therefore, we cannot make any conclusions about the specific game Charlie played based on the given information.

The ratio of the working capacity of 1 member of team P to that of a member of team Q can be determined by comparing the number of days it takes for each team to complete the task. Team P consists of 20 engineers and takes 32 days to complete the task, while team Q consists of 16 engineers and takes 30 days. Since both teams are completing the same task, we can compare the number of days it takes for each team to complete the task relative to the number of engineers in each team. By dividing the number of days by the number of engineers, we find that team P completes the task in 1.6 days per engineer, while team Q completes the task in 1.875 days per engineer. Simplifying these ratios, we get 4:3, which is the ratio of the working capacity of 1 member of team P to that of a member of team Q.

The correct answer is 3001. The number 10001000 has four digits.

The rank of a word in a dictionary is determined by arranging all the letters of the word in alphabetical order and counting the number of words that come before it. In this case, if we arrange the letters of the word "rachit" in alphabetical order, we get "achirt". By looking at the words starting with "a", we can see that there are 480 words before "achirt". However, since "rachit" starts with the letter "r", it will come after all the words starting with "a". Therefore, the rank of the word "rachit" is 481.

Frank should say "Black!" The reason is that Danny and Edmund both said "I do not know," which means that they cannot see two white hats in front of them. Since there are only 2 white hats available, Frank can deduce that he must be wearing a black hat. Therefore, he confidently says "Black!"

Based on the given information, Robinson Crusoe asked each villager how many truth-tellers there are among them. One villager replied "Zero," another replied "One," and the third replied "Two." Since a truth-teller always tells the truth, we can conclude that the villager who replied "One" is a truth-teller. The other two villagers must be liars because their responses contradict the truth-teller's answer. Therefore, there is only one truth-teller among the three villagers.

The analog clock follows a 12-hour format, so after 12 hours, it will show the time as 11 pm. After another 12 hours, it will show the time as 11 am again. Since 1234567890 is a multiple of 12, the clock will complete multiple cycles of 12 hours. Therefore, after such a large number of hours, the clock will show the time as 5 am.

John tells the truth on Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, but lies on every other day. If John made the statement "I will tell the truth tomorrow," it means that he will tell the truth the next day. Since John tells the truth on Saturdays, the next day after Saturday is Sunday. However, John lies on Sundays, so he cannot make this statement on Sunday. Therefore, the only possible day for John to make this statement is on Tuesday.

Ellen can figure out that Dylan is wearing the black hat. If Cole was wearing the black hat and telling the truth, then Dylan would also have to be telling the truth, which contradicts the fact that at least one of them is lying. Therefore, Cole must be lying about being Cole, and Dylan must be telling the truth about being Dylan. This means that Dylan is wearing the black hat.

This is an impossible scenario because if the first statement is true, then the statement on the other side of the card must also be true. However, if the statement on the other side is true, then it contradicts the first statement, making it false. On the other hand, if the first statement is false, then the statement on the other side must also be false. But this also contradicts the second statement, making it true. Therefore, there is no consistent truth value for both statements, making it an impossible scenario.

If the original team of 200 workers had to complete the bridge without the additional 200 workers, they would be behind schedule by 10 days. This is because after 10 days, the original team had only completed half of the work, and with the additional workers, they were able to complete the remaining half in the remaining 10 days. Therefore, without the additional workers, they would need an extra 10 days to finish the bridge.

The two trains are moving in the same direction, so the relative speed between them is the difference between their speeds, which is 72 kmph - 54 kmph = 18 kmph. Converting this to m/s, we get 18 kmph * (1000 m / 1 km) * (1 h / 3600 s) = 5 m/s. The total distance the first train needs to cover to overtake the second train is the sum of their lengths, which is 100m + 200m = 300m. Dividing the distance by the relative speed, we get 300m / 5 m/s = 60s, which is equal to 1 min. Therefore, the first train will take 1 min to overtake the second train.

To determine which chest contains 100 gold coins, you should choose Chest B. If the label on Chest B is incorrect, then it must contain 100 gold coins. If the label on Chest A is incorrect, it cannot contain 100 gold coins because it is labeled as such. If the label on Chest C is incorrect, it cannot contain 100 gold coins because it is labeled as containing 100 silver coins. Therefore, Chest B is the only option that could potentially contain 100 gold coins.

After 42896 hours, the time on the clock will be 4 pm. To find the time before 42896 hours, we subtract 12 hours from 8 am, which gives us 8 pm. Therefore, the respective times after and before 42896 hours are 4 pm and 8 pm.

Based on the information given, we cannot determine whether Claire's grades will improve or not. The teacher stated that if Claire studies for 5 or more days a week, her grades will improve. However, it is not specified how many days Claire actually studies in a week. Therefore, we cannot make any conclusions about the improvement of her grades.

The weight of machine D is determined by the sum of the weights of machines A, B, and C. The weights of A, B, C, and D vary as the square of their individual prices. Since the price ratio of A, B, and C is 2:3:4, the weight ratio will be 4:9:16. Therefore, the weight of D will be 16 times the weight of A. Given that the difference in weight between D and A, B, and C together is 9880 kg, we can set up the equation 16x - (4x + 9x + 16x) = 9880, where x represents the weight of A. Solving this equation gives us x = 620 kg, so the weight of D is 16 * 620 = 9,920 kg. Therefore, none of the given answer choices are correct.

The man speaks the truth 3 out of 4 times, which means he lies 1 out of 4 times. The probability of him telling the truth about throwing a 6 is 3/4, and the probability of him lying about throwing a 6 is 1/4. Therefore, the probability of it actually being a 6 is the probability of him telling the truth multiplied by the probability of a 6 (3/4 * 1/6), which equals 1/8. Similarly, the probability of him lying about a 6 is the probability of him lying multiplied by the probability of a 6 (1/4 * 5/6), which equals 5/24. Adding these two probabilities together gives us 1/8 + 5/24 = 3/8.

The only statement that can be true is Bob's statement, "Exactly two of us are Knights." If this statement is true, then there must be two Knights in the group. All the other statements contradict each other or are impossible given Bob's statement. Therefore, there are 2 Knights in the group.

If Sheldon is telling the truth, then he didn't pay for anything, which contradicts Leonard's statement that he paid for everything. If Leonard is telling the truth, then Raj must be lying because Leonard said he paid for everything, leaving no room for Raj to have shared the bill. Therefore, Raj must be telling the truth, meaning he paid the entire bill.

Based on the two statements made by Stella, it can be concluded that she needs to write exactly 2 essays. Statement 1 indicates that she has at least 3 essays to write, which means she cannot have fewer than 3 essays. Statement 2 indicates that she has at most 3 essays to write, which means she cannot have more than 3 essays. Therefore, the only possible number of essays she needs to write is 3, satisfying both statements.

If the taller man was a Knight, he would have told the truth when asked if they were both Knights. Since the answer was not clear, we can conclude that the taller man is a Knave. When the shorter man was asked if the taller man was a Knight, he replied truthfully, which means he is a Knight. Therefore, the taller man is a Knave and the shorter man is a Knight.

The ratio of the sum of n terms of two arithmetic progression (A.P.) is given as 5n+4 : 9n+6. To find the ratio of their 13th terms, we can substitute n=13 into the given ratio. Thus, the ratio becomes 5(13)+4 : 9(13)+6 = 129 : 231. Therefore, the ratio of their 13th terms is 129/231.

The answer is 8 because if exactly eight statements on the list are false, then the statement "Exactly eight statements on this list are false" would be true. Since there can only be one false statement, this option is incorrect. Therefore, the correct answer is that 8 statements on the list are false.

To find the minimum number of digits required to form every number between 900 and 9,000, we need to consider the smallest and largest numbers in this range. The smallest number is 901, which has three digits. The largest number is 8,999, which also has four digits. Therefore, we need at least three digits to form every number between 900 and 9,000. The answer, 39, is the closest option to this minimum requirement.

The given answer, 3, is the difference between the minimum number of numbers required to form every number from 1 to 1234 and the minimum number of numbers required to form every number from 1 to 4321. This suggests that it takes 3 fewer numbers to form the numbers from 1 to 1234 compared to the numbers from 1 to 4321.

The value of √1 is 1. When we take the modulus (remainder) of 1 divided by 10, the result is 1. Therefore, the value of √1 % 10 is 1.

In this scenario, A claims to not be the Knave, which means A is either the Knight or the Jester. B claims to be the Knave, which means B cannot be the Knight. C claims to not be the Knave, which means C cannot be the Knave. Since A and B cannot be the Jester, and C's statement is consistent with being the Jester, we can conclude that C is the Jester.
