Ques:- When x is real what is the least value of (x**2-6*x+5)/(x**2+2*x+1)
Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2020-05-17 12:01:23:

(x**2 – 6* x + 5) = (x-1)*(x-5)
(x**2 + 2 * x + 1) = (x + 1) * (x+1) = (x+1)**2
For what x is (x-1)*(x-5)/( (x+1)**2) a minimum?
One way to answer this question is by using calculus.
Take the derivative, and set to zero.
Since this is a fraction of polynomials, and a fraction is
zero only if it’s numerator is zero, we need calculate only
the numerator of the derivative and set it to zero.
The numerator of the
Derivative of (x-1)*(x-5)/( (x+1)**2) is
( (x-1) + (x-5) ) ( x+1)**2 – (x-1)(x-5)( 2 (x+1) )
= (2 x – 6) (x+1)**2 – (2) (x-1)(x-5) (x+1)
= 0
Divide through by 2 (x+1)
(x-3)(x+1) – (x-1)(x-5) = 0
(x**2 – 2 x – 3 ) – (x**2 – 6 x + 5) = 0
x**2 – x**2 – 2 x + 6 x – 3 – 5 = 0
4 x – 8 = 0
x = 2
Plugging in x = 2 into the original
(x**2-6*x+5)/(x**2+2*x+1)
gives us (2**2 – 6 * 2 + 5)/(2**2 + 2*2 + 1)
= (4 – 12 + 5) / (4 + 4 + 1) = -3/9 = -1/3
Least value is -1/3

Ques:- In 1978, a kg of paper was sold at Rs25/-. I f the paper rate increases at 1.5% more than inflation rate which is of 6.5% a year , then what wil be the cost of a kg of paper after 2 years? a)29.12 (b) 29.72 (c) 30.12 (d) 32.65 (e) none of these
Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2020-05-17 12:00:04:

(a) 29.12 (actual)
first year rate of paper (inflation rate) : 25 + 25 *
6.5/100 = 26.625
paper rate in first year is 1.5 % more . ..thr4
inflated cost in 1 yr = 26.625 + 1.5 / 100 * 26.625 =
27.024.
second year : 27.024 + 27.024 * 6.5 / 100 = 28.78
paper cost : 1.5 /100 * 28.78 + 28.78 = 29.12 ( approx..)

B. 3 : 2
C. 4 : 3
D. 5 : 3
Recent Answer : Added by bing chilling On 2022-01-19 15:38:41:

The answer is A)

y1 = 62 Rs/kg
y2 = 72 Rs/kg
y = 64.5 Rs/kg

y2 – y1 = 10 Rs/kg

The distance between the y and y1 is

y – y1 = 64.5 – 62 = 2.5

x1 = (y – y1)/(y2 – y1) = 2.5/10 = 0.25
x2 = 1 – x1 = 1 – 0.25 = 0.75

The target price is calculated by the lever method.

x1 * y2 + x2 * y1 = 0.25 * 72 + 0.75 * 62.5 = 64.5

The ratio is of y1 to y2 is

0.75 : 0.25

Divide by both by 0.25

3 : 1

Recent Answer : Added by DK BOSS On 2021-07-16 09:53:06:

This is a sequence of English letters, in numbers.

⇒ ten = 3 letters

⇒ nine = 4 letters

⇒ sixty = 5 letters

⇒ ninety = 6 letters

⇒ seventy = 7 letters

⇒ Sixty six =8 letters

⭕️This logical question goes with the no. of letters in the number!!!!!!!

⭕️∴ the biggest number with 9 letters will be ninety-six (96).
