8;x+2 = 24x-3, (23)x+2= 24x-3, 23x+6= 24x-3
As the bases are same, the powers can be equated. Hence
3x+6 = 4x-3 or - x = - 9 Or x = 9

To find the value of 5x - 5, we need to first solve the given equation. Distributing the 4 to the terms inside the parentheses, we get 12x - 12 = 24. Adding 12 to both sides of the equation, we get 12x = 36. Dividing both sides by 12, we find that x = 3. Plugging this value into 5x - 5, we get 5(3) - 5 = 15 - 5 = 10. Therefore, the correct answer is 10.

Number of red marbles in the jar = 10+x
Total number of marbles in the jar = 10+x+30 = 40+x
According to the problem,
10+x/40+x = 10(10+x) = 6(40 + x)
Or 100 + 10x = 240 + 6x or 4x =140 or x = 35
Hence, 35 red marbles must be added to the jar.

The given expression is a quadratic trinomial. To find the equivalent expression, we need to factorize the quadratic trinomial. The correct answer, (2x + 3)(3x - 4), is the factored form of the given expression.

Number of students in the class = n(T∪C) = 30
Number of students who take tea = n(T) = 14
Number of students who take coffee = n(C) =20
Number of students who take both tea and coffee = n(T∩C)
n(T∩C) = n(T) + n(C) - n(T∪C)
=14 + 20 - 30 = 34 - 30 = 4

The basket was half filled after 59 minutes.
If there were half the number of flowers in the basket after 59 minutes, then the basket would be full in the next minute, as the flowers double after every minute.

Sometimes in some problems, some extra information is given, which is not required to solve the problem. Here, it is clear that the number of mangoes C got is 12.
Total 72 mangoes minus 60 mangoes given to A and B. Hence, Fraction of mangoes C got out of the total number of mangoes
= 12/72 = 1/6 = 0.16666. , this can be rounded to 0.167

Since the average of the 11 numbers is 21, the sum of all 11 numbers is 11 * 21 = 231. The sum of the seven numbers with an average of 25 is 7 * 25 = 175. To find the sum of the remaining four numbers, we subtract the sum of the seven numbers from the sum of all 11 numbers: 231 - 175 = 56. Finally, we divide the sum of the remaining four numbers by 4 (the number of remaining numbers) to find the average: 56 / 4 = 14. Therefore, the average of the remaining four numbers is 14.

Option A is not correct is not correct. 98765432 is not divisible by 9 as the sum of its digits 44 is not divisible by 9.
Option B is not correct as 98765432 is not divisible by 7.
Option C is not correct as the last digit of 98765432 is not 5, hence 98765432 is not divisible by 5.
Option D is correct. Using the tests of divisibility, we know that a number is divisible by 8 if its last three digits are divisible by 8. The last three digits of the given number 432 is divisible by 8.
Option E is not correct. As the difference of the sum of digits in its even and odd places {(9 + 7 + 5 + 3) - (8 + 6 + 4 + 2)} 4 is not a multiple of 11, 98765432 is not divisible by 11.

Option A cannot be chosen, if x = 0 then both the inequalities given will be zero which is not true.
Option B be cannot be chosen, if y = 0 then both the inequalities given will be zero which is not true.
Option C cannot be chosen, if x > 0 and y Option D is correct. If x2y n> 0, then x2 is anyway positive, hence y must also be positive so that the product is positive. If xy2 0.
Option E cannot be correct. If both x and y are positive, then only x2y > 0 will be true and xy2 will be false.

Option A is correct, as ∠CFD+∠BFC+ ∠AFB lie on the same line AD.
Hence their sum must be 180°
∠CFD, ∠BFC and ∠AFB = 180°
∠CFD + 90° + 40° = 180° (angle on a line) Or ∠CFD = 180° - 130° = 50°
Option B is not correct as 40°+90°+40°≠180°
Option C is not correct as 100°+90°+40°≠180°
Option D is not correct as 90°+90°+40°≠180°
Option E is not correct as the single angle CFD itself is 180°

As other angle measures are not equal to the calculated measure of ∠ABC, only
option C is correct.
Exterlor angle of a tr|angle |s equal to the sum of its two interior opposite angles.
∠ABD = ∠BDC - ∠BAD = 60° - 30° = 30°
∠CBD = ∠BCE - ∠BDC = 130° - 60° = 70°
∠ABC = ∠ABD + ∠CBD = 30° + 70° = 100°

Option A is not correct her rate is not equal to 1 test per hour.
Option B is not correct as she can complete ab tests in 1 hour.
Option C is correct. Alda completes the tests at the rate of a tests/(1/b) hours = ab tests/hour. Hence in n hours she can complete nab tests.
Option D is not correct as she completes a tests in 1/b hours.
Option E is also not correct.

The price of the commodity is doubled each month for 6 months. Therefore, if the price at the end of 6 months is $640, then the price at the end of 3 months would be half of that. Half of $640 is $320, so the correct answer is $320.

Volume of rectangular solid = volume of cube.
Or l * w * h = s3 or 4 * 8 * 16 = s3 or s3 = 512

Let 0 be the center of the circle, then ∠QOR is the angle subtended by the arc QR

The angle subtended by an arc at the center of a circle is double the angle subtended
by the same arc on the remaining part of the circle

Therefore, ∠QOR = 2 * 65 degrees = 130 degrees

If 2 dots are equal to 3 dashes and 5 dashes are equal to 7 stars, we can set up the following ratios: 2 dots : 3 dashes and 5 dashes : 7 stars. To find the ratio of one dot to one star, we can combine the two ratios by multiplying them together: (2 dots/3 dashes) * (5 dashes/7 stars). Simplifying this expression gives us 10 dots : 21 stars, which can be written as the ratio 10/21. Therefore, the correct answer is 10/21.

Option A is correct.
Let the total fund = n million dollars
40% of n = 1.6 million dollars
Or 0.4n = 1.6 million dollars
Or n = 1.6/0.4 million dollars = 4 million dollars
Hence 40% of 4 is 1.6
B is not correct, as 40% of 6 is 2.4 and not 1.6
C is not correct, as 40% of 4.6 is 1.84 and not 1.6
D is not correct, as 40% of 40 is 16 and not 1.6
E is not correct, as 40% of 1.6 is 0.64 and not 1.6

Option A is not correct as f(3x+3 / x-1) ≠ x+1
Option B is correct as
f(3x+3 / x-1) = (3x+3 / x-1 + 3) / (3x+3 / x-1 - 3)
= (3x+3+3x-3) / (3x+3-3x+3)
= 6x/6 = x
Option C is not correct as f(3x+3 / x-1) ≠ x-1
Option D is not correct as f(3x+3 / x-1) ≠ x+3
Option D is not correct as f(3x+3 / x-1) ≠ x-3

As other answers are not equal to the calculated answers, only option C is correct. 1$ = 100 cents and 1 pound = 16 ounces.
Price/weight = 12/45 dollars/pounds = 1200/ (45*16) cents/ounces
= n/9 cents/ounces
Or 1200 * 9 = 4.5 * 16 * n
or n = 1200 * 9/72 = 150 cents

As other areas given are not equal to the calculated area, only option D is correct.
Area of square ABED = 9 square units or side of square ABDE
BE = side of square ABED = 3 units
EF = 1 unit.
Width of the rectangle BCGF= BF = BE + EF
= 3 units + 1 unit = 4 units
Length of the rectangle BCGF= BC = 5 units
Area of the rectangle BCGF = 1 * w
= 5 * 4 square units
= 20 square units

In the given question, the operation * is defined as the product of two positive numbers. The expression "7 * 4" means multiplying 7 and 4 together. Therefore, the correct answer is 28.

Let A occupy any seat around the table. Then there are 19 seats available for B. But if there are to be six persons between A and B, then B has only two ways to sit.
Thus, the required probability is 2/19

The given sequence is a combination of two patterns: the numbers are alternately multiplied by 2 and divided by 2. Starting with 81, the next number is obtained by dividing 81 by 2, resulting in 40. Then, 40 is multiplied by 2 to get 80. Continuing this pattern, the next number is obtained by dividing 80 by 2, resulting in 40. Therefore, the answer is 72, which is obtained by dividing 144 by 2.

-5 ≤ (2x - 1)/ 5 ≤ 5 => -25 ≤ 2x -1 ≤ 25
Or- 24 ≤ 2x ≤ 26

As other speeds given are not equal to the calculated average speed only option B is correct.
Speed = distance traveled/time taken
Total distance traveled = (250 +700 + 325) mile = 1275 miles
Time = distance/speed
Total time = (250/50 + 700/35 + 325/13) hrs = (5 + 20 + 25) hrs = 50 hrs
Average speed of the car = 1275/50 miles / hr = 25.5 miles/hr

Capacity of each bag = HCF of 77, 147 and 252 = 7 pounds.

As all the three lines in figure are parallel, we have the following relations:
∠CNO = ∠NOY = 55 degrees (interior alternative angles)
∠AMO = ∠MON = ∠MOV + ∠NOY
= 55 degrees + 36 degrees = 91 degrees

The correct answer is "nab" because it is the only option that makes sense in the given context. The other options are either incomplete or do not form a coherent word. Therefore, "nab" is the most logical and appropriate answer.

Distance climbed by the monkey in 6 seconds
= 5 feet - 3 feet = 2 feet
In 6 seconds it climbs 2 feet. It climbs 26 feet in 78 seconds and the remaining 4 feet in 4 seconds. So the total time is 82 seconds.

Only option E is correct as the other ratios given do not satisfy the relation
Radius = 21units
Circumference = 2πr = 2 * 22/7 *21 units = 132 units
Circumference of the circle = perimeter of the square or
4a = 132 units or a = 33 units
Therefore, side of the square is 33 units
Area of circle: Area of square = πr2:a^2
= 22/7 *21*21: 33*33
=14:11
