It is wrong for doctors to lie about their patients' ...........illnesses. From the above statements this will be true

SP of first article = 1000

Profit = 20%

CP = 100100+P×SP= 5000/6 = 2500/3

SP of second article = 1000

Loss = 20%

CP = 100100-L×SP= 5000/4 = 1250

Total SP = 2000

Total CP = 25003+ 1250 = 6250/3

CP is more than SP, he makes a loss.

Loss = CP-SP = (6250/3)- 2000 = 250/3

Loss Percent =250362503×100= 4%

Every year 5th September is celebrated as Teacher's Day in India, in the memory of Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan's birthday. He was the first vice-president and second president of India.

After he become the president of India, his students want to celebrate his birthday in grand but he refused and he adviced them to celebrate that day as teachers day. From then, 5th September is celebrated as Teacher's Day.

Present worth = 169/(1+4/100)^n = 156.25

If the interest earned is 25% more than the earlier interest then the rate of interest also should be 25% higher than the earlier rate.
Let the earlier rate of interest be x%.
Now it will be (x + 3)%
% increase = (x + 3) - x/x * 100 = 25
=> x = 12%

From above diagram
AC represents the hill and DE represents the tower

Given that AC = 100 m

angleXAD = angleADB = 30° (∵ AX || BD )
angleXAE = angleAEC = 60° (∵ AX || CE)

Let DE = h

Then, BC = DE = h, AB = (100-h) (∵ AC=100 and BC = h), BD = CE

tan 60°=AC/CE => √3 = 100/CE =>CE = 100/√3 ----- (1)

tan 30° = AB/BD => 1/√3 = 100−h/BD => BD = 100−h(√3)
∵ BD = CE and Substitute the value of CE from equation 1
100/√3 = 100−h(√3) => h = 66.66 mts

The height of the tower = 66.66 mts.

A line is an undefined term because of it :

1. Contains an infinite number of points

2. can be used to create other geometric shapes

3. is a term that does not have a formal definition

In Geometry, unless it's stated, a line will extend in one dimension and goes on forever in both ways.

Average speed=total distance/total time
Let distance to store be  K
then, total time =(K/20)+(K/30)=K/12
and, total time =(2K)
so average speed= 2K / (K/12) = 24kmph.
