The question asks to identify which option is NOT a form of privatisation, specifically in the context of India's New Economic Policy of 1991. Privatisation involves reducing the role of the state in economic activities and increasing the role of the private sector. We need to evaluate each option to see if it aligns with this definition.
Correct Option: C) Sovereign borrowing is a method of government finance and does not involve the transfer of ownership or control of public assets or enterprises to the private sector. Therefore, it is not a form of privatisation.
This problem involves tracking movements in different directions. We can solve this by breaking down the journey into horizontal (East-West) and vertical (North-South) components. We will calculate the net displacement in each direction from the starting point (Point A) to the final point (Point P).
So, Point P is at coordinates \((2, 0)\) relative to Point A \((0,0)\).
To reach Point A again from Point P, Mr. Yanki needs to move from \((2, 0)\) to \((0, 0)\).
The change in x-coordinate required is \(0 - 2 = -2\) km. A negative change in x-coordinate means moving West.
The change in y-coordinate required is \(0 - 0 = 0\) km. No movement in North-South direction is needed.
Therefore, he needs to drive 2 km towards the West to reach Point A.
Correct Option: B) 2 km to the West
The question asks to identify the specific US program that provided wheat aid to India before the Green Revolution, which helped reduce India's dependency on such aid. This requires knowledge of historical US foreign aid programs and their beneficiaries.
A) PL-480: Public Law 480, officially known as the Agricultural Trade Development and Assistance Act of 1954, was a US program that provided food aid, including wheat, to developing countries. India was a major beneficiary of this program, especially during the 1960s, to combat food shortages before the Green Revolution made the country self-sufficient in food grains.
To determine which number is divisible by 87, we can either perform division for each option or factorize 87 and check for divisibility by its factors. Factoring 87 into its prime factors, \(87 = 3 \times 29\), allows us to check for divisibility by 3 and 29 separately. A number is divisible by 3 if the sum of its digits is divisible by 3. Divisibility by 29 usually requires direct division or a specific divisibility rule for 29, which is less common. Therefore, direct division by 87 for each option is a straightforward method.
A) 8004 is divisible by 87 because \(8004 \div 87 = 92\).
The problem describes a right-angled triangle with its sides given in terms of a variable 'x'. We need to find the area of this triangle. The key is to use the Pythagorean theorem to find the value of 'x' and then calculate the area using the formula for the area of a right-angled triangle.
Correct Option: A) 150
This problem can be solved by setting up a system of linear equations based on the given information. We will assign variables to the cost of one chair and one table, form two equations, and then solve for the required combination of chairs and tables.
Let \(C\) be the cost of one chair and \(T\) be the cost of one table.
From the first statement, "4 chairs and 14 tables cost ₹4,000", we can form the equation:
\[ 4C + 14T = 4000 \quad \text{(Equation 1)} \]From the second statement, "16 chairs and 12 tables cost ₹5,000", we can form the equation:
\[ 16C + 12T = 5000 \quad \text{(Equation 2)} \]We need to find the cost of 8 chairs and 4 tables, which is \(8C + 4T\).
To simplify, divide Equation 1 by 2:
\[ 2C + 7T = 2000 \quad \text{(Equation 3)} \]Divide Equation 2 by 4:
\[ 4C + 3T = 1250 \quad \text{(Equation 4)} \]Now we have a system of two simpler equations:
Multiply Equation 3 by 2 to eliminate \(C\):
\[ 2 \times (2C + 7T) = 2 \times 2000 \]\[ 4C + 14T = 4000 \quad \text{(Equation 5)} \]Subtract Equation 4 from Equation 5:
\[ (4C + 14T) - (4C + 3T) = 4000 - 1250 \]\[ 11T = 2750 \]\[ T = \frac{2750}{11} \]\[ T = 250 \]Substitute the value of \(T\) into Equation 3:
\[ 2C + 7(250) = 2000 \]\[ 2C + 1750 = 2000 \]\[ 2C = 2000 - 1750 \]\[ 2C = 250 \]\[ C = \frac{250}{2} \]\[ C = 125 \]Now, calculate the cost of 8 chairs and 4 tables:
\[ 8C + 4T = 8(125) + 4(250) \]\[ 8C + 4T = 1000 + 1000 \]\[ 8C + 4T = 2000 \]D) ₹2,000 is the correct cost for 8 chairs and 4 tables.
The question asks to identify the Indian states covered under the CITI-CDRA project as of March 2025. This requires knowledge of the specific states included in this particular urban development and disaster resilience initiative.
D) Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra are among the states covered under the CITIIS 2.0 / CDRA project. These states have cities participating in the program for integrated urban development and disaster resilience initiatives.
This problem involves calculating averages. We will use the formula for average, which states that the average is the sum of all values divided by the number of values. We will first find the total score of all students, then the total score of the first group of students, and finally subtract to find the total score of the remaining students. From this, we can calculate their average score.
The average score of 30 students is 75. The formula for average is:
\[ \text{Average} = \frac{\text{Total Score}}{\text{Number of Students}} \]So, the total score of all 30 students is:
\[ \text{Total Score (all students)} = \text{Average Score} \times \text{Number of Students} \] \[ \text{Total Score (all students)} = 75 \times 30 = 2250 \]20 students scored an average of 80. Their total score is:
\[ \text{Total Score (20 students)} = \text{Average Score} \times \text{Number of Students} \] \[ \text{Total Score (20 students)} = 80 \times 20 = 1600 \]The number of remaining students is \(30 - 20 = 10\). The total score of these 10 students is the total score of all students minus the total score of the first 20 students:
\[ \text{Total Score (remaining 10 students)} = \text{Total Score (all students)} - \text{Total Score (20 students)} \] \[ \text{Total Score (remaining 10 students)} = 2250 - 1600 = 650 \]Now, we find the average score for these 10 students:
\[ \text{Average Score (remaining 10 students)} = \frac{\text{Total Score (remaining 10 students)}}{\text{Number of remaining students}} \] \[ \text{Average Score (remaining 10 students)} = \frac{650}{10} = 65 \]Correct Option: A) 65
The question asks for the specific amount of the incentive scheme introduced by the Indian Government in March 2023 (not 2025 as stated in the question, but the context points to the scheme for FY 2022-23, which was announced in March 2023) to promote small-value UPI transactions. This is a factual recall question related to government policies concerning digital payments.
A) ₹1,500 crore is the correct amount. The Union Cabinet approved an incentive scheme with a financial outlay of ₹1,500 crore for the promotion of RuPay Debit Cards and low-value BHIM-UPI transactions (Person-to-Merchant) for the financial year 2022-23. Although the question mentions March 2025 and FY 2024-25, the amount ₹1,500 crore is historically associated with a significant incentive scheme for UPI transactions announced in March 2023 for FY 2022-23. Given the options, this is the most accurate figure related to such an incentive.
Which of the following films was selected as India's official entry for Oscar 2025?
