Let the amount of work done by 1 man in 1 day is w. Then the work done by (x - 3) men in (2x + 1) days=(x - 3)(2x + 1)w. And the work done by (2x + 1) men in (x + 4) days=(2x + 1)(x + 4)w. By the given condition, / = 3 : 10 Simplifying: (x - 3) / (x + 4) = 3 / 10 --> 10x - 30=3x + 12 --> 10x...

By the given condition, [(x - 3)(2x + 1)w] / [ (2x + 1)(x + 4)w] = 3 : 10 Simplifying: (x - 3) / (x + 4) = 3 / 10 --> 10x - 30=3x + 12 --> 10x - 3x=30 + 12 --> 7x=42 --> x = 42/7 = 6 Answer: x = 6. read less

Had Ravita scored 10 more marks in her Mathematics test out of 30 marks, 9 times these marks would have been the square of her actual marks. How many marks did she get in the test?
Let Ravita's score be x out of 30. We first form an equation based on the information provided in the question. The equation turns out to be 9(x+10)=x^2 -> x^2-9x-90=0 -> (x-15)(x+6)=0 SO, the possible...

Cards, marked with numbers 5 to 50, are placed in a box and mixed throughly. A card is drawn from teh box at random. Find the probability that the number on the taken out card is: (i) a prime number less than 10. (ii) a number which is a perfect square." "
The sample size is 46 (i) The prime numbers less than 10 are 5 and 7. so the probability is 2/46 or 1/23. (ii) The perfect squares are 9,16,25, 36 and 49-five in all so the probability is 5/46
