Compound ratio of A:B:C
A:B = 3:4
B:C = 5:6
----------
A:B:C = 15:20:24

We can divide Rs.118000 in this ratio.

Share of A = 15/59 x 118000 = 30000

Share of B = 20/59 x 118000 = 40000

Share of C = 24/59 x 118000 = 48000

Number of odd days from the year 2006 to the year 2009 = (1 + 1 + 2 + 1) = 5 days.

On 1st Jan 2006, it was Sunday.

Thus, On 1st Jan, 2010 it is Friday.

Let the fixed expenditure of the hotel be Rs.x and the variable expenditure ( which is dependent on the guest ) is Rs.y , then 

          x + 10y = 600        ---------(1)

          x + 20y = 800       ----------(2)

From (1) & (2)

10y = 200 

=>  y = Rs. 20   and    x= 400

Hence the total expenditure when there are 40 guests = 400 + 40 x 20 = 1200

Therefore,  average expenditure = 1200/40 = Rs. 30

29 x 2 = 58
20 x 3 = 60
         -----------
               2 years

Therefore, the age of child is 2 years.

Let number of balls = (6 + 8) = 14.

Number of white balls = 8.

P (drawing a white ball) = 8 /14=4/7.

Given (2a + 3b)/(5a - 3b) = 23/5
=> 10a + 15b = 115a - 69b
=> 105a = 84b => 5a = 4b
a/b = 4/5 => a=4 & b=5
=> bxa = 5x4 = 20.

But at x=-1/3, log x is not defined.

The only admissible value of x is 1.
