1. There are 10C5 ways of selecting 5 distinct digits. Once these digits are chosen, there is only 1 way of arranging them in a decre asing order from the left to right. Hence 10C5. Hence [2] The shaded figure is a rhombus. Each side = Are a = base height = 1 1 1 sin

1= Hence [2] sin sin A. Since we have only eight numbers, N5, N6, and N7, have to be zero (Because any number cannot appe ar in the list 5,6 or 7 times) B. Hence N7, N6, N5 = 0. N0 N1 N2 N3 N4 N5 N6 N7 0 0 0 C. Now N0 3. D. If N0 = 3. N0 N1 N2 N3 N4 N5 N6 N7 3 0 0 0 E. Any of N1, N2, N3 and N4 cannot take the values of 4 (or) 3 as per the logic of A. Hence at le ast one of N1, N2, N3, and N4 has to be 0. Then N0 becomes 4. N0 = 4. F. N4 0 because N0 = 4. Hence N4 = 1. G. If N3 = 0 N0 N1 N2 N3 N4 N5 N6 N7 4 0 1 0 0 0 H.

Let work efficiency of e ach shift is 10 units. The work is completed in 60days by working first shift only. Total amount of work = 8 60 = 480. Total average efficiency of the thre e shifts put together = 20. By working in all the thre e shifts the work can be completed in

Alternately, short diagonal / long diagonal has to be less than 1. Obvious answer [1] 7 Let the number be 10x + y. It is given that 10x + y = 8 (x + y) i.e. 2x = 7y i.e. x = y 2 Since x and y are single digits the number is 72.Hence [3] Let the money that Solomon has be N thousands. N +1 = K (L.C.M (10, 9, 8, 7) where K = 1,2,3..N+ 1 =2520K When K = 1, N= 2519.When K=2, N=5039. Hence [1]

Let the total amount of work be 20 units. Then rate of work of Sridhar and Amit is 2 units and 1 unit per day respectively. The work done by Sridhar in the first 4 days = 4units. The remaining amount of work is 16 units. The work done by Amit in the next 12 days is 12 units. The work done by Hari should be 4 units. The wages is shared by as per the amount of work done by e ach. Ratio

of work done by Sridhar, Amit and Hari = 4: 12: 4 = 1: 3: 1. Hence [2] 16. Let the spe eds are interchanged after t hrs.

t + 420 60 t = + 420 90 t 1 t + 90 60 42 6 t 42 9 t 1 14 2 t 14 3 t 1 + = 6 + 3 =2 9 28 4t = 42 9t + 6 5t = 20 and t= 4hrs.

17. 18.

The first digit of the 5-digit number must be 6. The remaining 4 digits can be arranged in 4! ways. Hence [4] 2002 = 2 1001 and C, A, T can be any of 2, 1001,1 i.e. C + A + T = 2 + 1001 + 1 = 1004 Hence [1] The maximum number of students who can have unique marks is 101(having marks 0, 1, 2,..100). Hence the minimum number of students who have not got unique mark = 140 101 = 39. Hence [3] 0 < a < 2 and a is an integer hence a= 1. The value of the given expres sion = 2. Hence [2]

Let there be 100 students. Let 5x students le arn Marathi. 2x students le arn Hindi and Marathi. 19 students le arn Hindi. 3(19 + 3x) students le arn neither. 4(19 + 3x) = 100 x = 2 Number of students who le arn Marathi = 5(2) = 10. i.e. 10% Hence [2] 22. 23. No of students who le arn neither = 3(19 + 3(2)) = 75. i.e. 75% Hence [1] f(x) is a constant function as f 2 24. 3 2 2

= - .Hence f(3001) = - Hence [4] 3 3

Since the second train has entered the platform completely, it has to cross the platform it has to travel the length of the platform alone. So the time taken to cross the platform by the train is = 1125

25. x +1 + x 1 x +1 x 1 x +1 x 1 = 6 4 = 5 applying componendo and dividendo, 1

squaring both sides and applying the componendo and dividendo,

x +1 36 x +1 9 13 x 1 = 16 x 1 = x = 4 5 26. Let the test is started at 3 hrs x min. and completed at 5 hrs y min.

The duration of the test = 300+y-180-x min.= 120 (x-y) min. The angle covered by the hour hand in the first case is equal to the angle covered by the minute hand in the second case. 90 + first case

= 6 y I In the same way The angle covered by the minute hand in the y = 6 x II 2
120 13

is equal to the angle covered by the hour hand in the second case.150 +

Subtracting I from II we get, 120 + y x = 12 x 12 y 13x 13 y = 120 x y =

120 Test duration = 120 . Hence test was approximately 1 hr 51 minutes. 13

27. Suppose he started the test at x minutes past 3pm and stopped writing at y minutes past 5pm. At x minutes past 3pm the minute hand and the hour hand were x minute divisions and x 1 5 + minute divisions ahe ad of the mark XII respectively. 12 At Y minutes past 5pm, the minute hand and the hour hand were y minute divisions and y 2 5 + minute divisions ahe ad of the mark XII respectively. 12 From the conditions of the problem, y x x = 25 + and y = 15 + 12 12 Solving both the equations we get, 62 29 x = 26 and y = 17 Hence [3] 143 143 Alternately, The time he started the test must be betwe en 3 hrs 25 min and 3 hrs 30 min. With this we can eliminate the options [1] and [4]. Answer cannot be option [3]. Because he finished the test betwe en 5hrs 15 min and 5 hrs 20 min. Hence the answer is [2] 28. AB + BC + CA =(a + b + c) =2s 2s = a + b + c = a + (AC) + (AB) =a + (AY + YC) + (AZ + BZ) = a + (AY + XC) + (AZ + BX) [ Tangents from an external point are equal]. = a + (AY + AZ) + a = 2a + 2(AZ) i.e. AZ = s a Hence [1] 2AZ1 = AZ1 + AY 1 [Tangents from an external point are equal] = AB + BX1 + AC + CX1 = AB + BC + AC = 2s AZ1 = s Hence [4] BX = BZ1 = AZ1 AB = s c Hence [3]

If Varun had given smaran a 5sec. Start he would have won by 40 metres.

The net return for company Z = The minimum overall return can be achieved when Rich buys a share of company Y or Z in reces sion situation, buys a share of company Y in normal growth situation and buys a share of company X in boom situation. Minimum overall return = -60 105+47.5 = -117.5 Rs. Hence [2] 650, 00 * 3 = 1950000 investment. Overall return = 22775 Gain of 327500.

The debt for the first quarter of 2002 03 is 250 and the debt for the last quarter of 2002-03 is 290. There is an increment of 40. The debt for the first quarter of 2003 04 is 305 and the debt for the last quarter of 2003-04 is 350. There is an increment of 45. 40 is 88. 88% of 45. Hence [2] The percentage of students who have scored marks in the range of 0 20 is 20 %. The number of students who have scored over 20 marks is 80 % of the total students. Hence [2] We only have the percentage of the students who have scored less than 10 in e ach and every section. There may be some students in common who have scored less than 10 in all the thre e section.
