9 because from 64 stubs 8 cigarettes and again from 8 stubs he’ll get 1 cigarette then his score will be 9

time is inversely proportional to speed.
So if speed taken is 4/5 of usual speed, time taken will be 5/4 of usual time
and the difference between time is 10 min
So,
(5/4)t -t=10 min
usual time,t=40 min
late time=40+10=50 min

coz steam has more heat content than hot water
It’s choice A because you take the last to letters and move them to the front then the previous two letters go after them and so on.
(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
Ans: 60 kph
Suppose Person meets the train everyday at 3 PM at Station A.
His speed is 12kph.
So normally he reaches 5 km before the meeting point (pt B) at (5/12 hr = 25 min before) 2:35PM.
But if he is late by 30 min, then he will reach that point (pt B) by 3:05 PM.
Train is traveling at its normal speed so it covers the distance of 5 Km in 5 min starting from Station A and reaches the meeting point (pt B) at 3:05 PM.
So speed of the train is 5KM/5min = 60 kph.

say the work is w and let no of days taken by b is ‘x’ which
we have to calculate
so work done by a in one day is w/6
work done by b in one day is w/x
a and b together can do work in 4 days ie=(w/6)+(w/x)=(w/4)
solving equation x=12
so no of days taken by b=12
