Q:

Which political process is necessary for redistricting?

A) Gerrymandering B) Filibuster
C) Census D) Election
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Census

Explanation:

Redistricting is the process of drawing electoral district boundaries in the United States.

The state legislature has primary responsibility for creating a redistricting plan, in many cases subject to approval by the state governor.

Redistricting has to follow certain criteria to be accepted:

* compactness
* contiguity
* equal population
* preservation of existing political communities
* partisan fairness
* racial fairness

 

The practice of gerrymandering involves the manipulation of district drawing in aims to leave out, or include, specific populations in a legislator's district to ensure his/her reelection.

 

Gerrymandering is the practice of drawing district lines to achieve political gain for legislators.

Q:

Area of a square and a rectangle are equal. If side of the square is 40 cm and length of the rectangle is 64 cm, what is the perimeter of the rectangle ?

A) 187 cm B) 178 cm
C) 149 cm D) 194 cm
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 178 cm

Explanation:

Area of square = 40 x 40

= 1600 sq.cm

Given that the areas of Square and Rectangle are equal

=> Area of rectangle = 1600 Sq.cm

We know that, Area of rectangle = L x B

Given L = 64 cm

Breadth of rectangle = 1600/64 = 25 cm

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(L + B) = 2(64+25) = 178 cm.

A 260 m long train running at the speed of 120 km/hr crosses another train running in opposite direction at the speed of 80 km/hr in 9 sec. What is the length of the other train  ?

A) 240 mts B) 270 mts
C) 260 mts D) 250 mts
