To simplify the given expression, we will follow the order of operations (BODMAS/PEMDAS). First, convert mixed fractions to improper fractions. Then, perform operations inside parentheses, followed by multiplication, and finally addition and division. Remember that division by a fraction is equivalent to multiplication by its reciprocal.
A) \(9 \frac{7}{9}\) is the correct simplified value of the given expression.
The question asks to identify the two colours that form the extremes of the visible light spectrum. This requires knowledge of the order of colours in a spectrum, commonly remembered by the acronym VIBGYOR.
Correct Option: A) Violet and Red — Violet is at one end of the spectrum (shortest wavelength, highest frequency) and Red is at the other end (longest wavelength, lowest frequency).
This problem involves finding the least common multiple (LCM) of the time taken by two individuals to complete one round on a circular path. When two people start from the same point and move along a circular path, they will meet again at the starting point after a time interval that is the LCM of their individual times to complete one round.
Correct Option: C) 36 minutes
The question asks about the earliest deciphered script used in Ashoka's inscriptions in India. This requires knowledge of ancient Indian scripts and their historical context, particularly concerning the Mauryan period and the decipherment efforts.
D) Brahmi — The Brahmi script was the most widely used script for Ashoka's inscriptions throughout India. It was successfully deciphered by James Prinsep in the 1830s, which marked a significant breakthrough in understanding ancient Indian history and the Mauryan Empire. This decipherment allowed scholars to read the vast majority of Ashoka's edicts, making it the "earliest deciphered epigraphy" of Ashoka's inscriptions in India.
This question asks us to identify which of the given assumptions are implicit in the statement provided. An implicit assumption is something that is taken for granted or understood without being explicitly stated. We need to analyze the statement and each assumption to determine if the statement logically requires the assumption to be true.
Correct Option: B) Only Assumption 2 is Implicit
Assumption 2 is implicit because the very act of advertising for a "senior consultant" position means that the company has a requirement or need for such a role to be filled.
The question asks to identify the first Chairman of the Rajya Sabha. The Chairman of the Rajya Sabha is, by virtue of office, the Vice-President of India. Therefore, the first Chairman of the Rajya Sabha would be the first Vice-President of India.
Correct Option: D) Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan was the first Vice-President of India and, by virtue of his office, the first Chairman of the Rajya Sabha.
The question asks to identify an application software from the given options. To answer this, it's important to understand the difference between application software and system software (like operating systems).
Correct Option: D) Graphics refers to graphics software, which is a type of application software used for creating and manipulating visual images.
The question asks to identify the field with which the Swedish Academy is associated for awarding the Nobel Prize. This is a factual question related to the Nobel Prize institutions.
B) Literature — The Swedish Academy is the institution that awards the Nobel Prize in Literature.
To find the population in the next year, we need to calculate the increase in population due to the given percentage growth and then add it to the current population. The increase is 10% of the present population.
Identify the present population: The present population is given as 20,000.
\[ \text{Present Population} = 20,000 \]Identify the annual increase rate: The population increases by 10% every year.
\[ \text{Increase Rate} = 10\% \]Calculate the increase in population for the next year: The increase is 10% of the present population.
\[ \text{Increase} = 10\% \text{ of } 20,000 \] \[ \text{Increase} = \frac{10}{100} \times 20,000 \] \[ \text{Increase} = 0.10 \times 20,000 \] \[ \text{Increase} = 2,000 \]Calculate the population in the next year: Add the increase to the present population.
\[ \text{Population in next year} = \text{Present Population} + \text{Increase} \] \[ \text{Population in next year} = 20,000 + 2,000 \] \[ \text{Population in next year} = 22,000 \]Correct Option: D) 22,000
To find the total amount Bhawna paid, we need to calculate the simple interest accrued on the principal amount for the given period and then add it to the principal. The key steps involve calculating the number of days the loan was outstanding, converting these days into years, and then applying the simple interest formula.
Since the interest rate is per annum, we need to express the time in years. Assuming a non-leap year (2018 is not a leap year), there are 365 days in a year.
\[ T = \frac{\text{Number of days}}{365} = \frac{74}{365} \text{ years} \]The formula for simple interest is:
\[ SI = \frac{P \times R \times T}{100} \]Substitute the values:
\[ SI = \frac{4500 \times 15 \times \frac{74}{365}}{100} \] \[ SI = \frac{4500 \times 15 \times 74}{100 \times 365} \] \[ SI = \frac{45 \times 15 \times 74}{365} \] \[ SI = \frac{675 \times 74}{365} \] \[ SI = \frac{49950}{365} \] \[ SI = 136.8493... \approx \text{₹}136.85 \]Total Amount = Principal + Simple Interest
\[ \text{Amount} = P + SI \] \[ \text{Amount} = 4500 + 136.85 \] \[ \text{Amount} = \text{₹}4636.85 \]Let's recheck the calculation for \(SI\). Sometimes, competitive exams might expect rounding at intermediate steps or specific precision. Let's re-evaluate \(SI = \frac{45 \times 15 \times 74}{365}\) more precisely:
\[ SI = \frac{49950}{365} = 136.849315... \]If we look at the options, ₹4,635 is very close. Let's check if there's a common approximation or if the options imply a slightly different calculation.
Let's re-evaluate the calculation. \(45 \times 15 = 675\). \(675 \times 74 = 49950\). \(49950 / 365 \approx 136.849\).
Let's check if any simplification was missed. \(365 = 5 \times 73\). \(45 = 5 \times 9\). So,
\[ SI = \frac{9 \times 15 \times 74}{73} = \frac{135 \times 74}{73} = \frac{9990}{73} \] \[ \frac{9990}{73} \approx 136.8493 \]It seems the calculation is correct. The closest option is ₹4,635. This suggests that perhaps the interest calculation might have been rounded to the nearest whole number or there might be a slight discrepancy in the options provided or in the expected precision.
If we consider the options, ₹4,635 is the most plausible. Let's assume the interest was rounded to ₹135 for some reason or if the question intended a slightly different calculation that leads to exactly ₹135 interest.
If \(SI = \text{₹}135\), then Amount = \(4500 + 135 = \text{₹}4635\).
Let's check if \(SI = 135\) is possible with some approximation. \(4500 \times 15\% = 675\) per year. For 74 days, \(675 \times \frac{74}{365} \approx 136.85\). It's possible that for competitive exams, sometimes a slight rounding is expected to match the options. The difference between 136.85 and 135 is small.
Given the options, ₹4,635 is the most likely correct answer, implying an interest of ₹135.
Let's re-calculate assuming an interest of exactly ₹135 leads to option B.
If \(SI = \text{₹}135\), then Total Amount = \(\text{₹}4500 + \text{₹}135 = \text{₹}4635\).
This matches option B exactly. The calculated simple interest is approximately ₹136.85. However, since ₹4,635 is an option, it's highly probable that ₹135 is the intended simple interest amount, possibly due to rounding or a slight simplification in the question's design.
B) ₹4,635. Based on the calculation, the simple interest is approximately ₹136.85. Adding this to the principal gives ₹4636.85. Option B, ₹4,635, is the closest and most plausible answer, suggesting that the interest might have been rounded to ₹135 or the question is designed to lead to this specific integer interest value.
