This question is my doubt from copy cat 03-

A box contains 300 matches , Rahul and Sachin take turns removing no more than half the matches in the box. The player who cannot move looses. What should be Rahul's first move to ensure his win if he is starting the game?

Series can be written as

(1-2/3) + (2/3-2/5) + (2/5-2/7) + (2/7-2/9) + (2/9-2/11) 

= 1-2/11

= 9/11 option (4)

a , ar , ar2 , ar3 , ar, …..

a + ar = 15

a ( 1 +r) = 15

a = 15/ ( 1+ r) …. (1)

Now ,

3(ar + ar2 + ar3 + ar4 +….) = a

3 [ar / (1-r)] = a

1 - r = 3r

r = ¼

from (1)

a = 12

Sum of the series : a , ar , ar2 , ar3 , ar, …..

 
a / ( 1 –r) = 12 ( 1-1/3) = 16

Consider the sequence of numbers - 1,22,333,4444,..... where each natural number 'n' repeats 'n'times. The 2015th number in the sequence will be?


TG Team 04/10/2018 3:54 pm

2015th number or 2015th digit ? 


Nikita Chawla 04/10/2018 4:00 pm

Number 


TG Team 04/10/2018 4:52 pm

If  the question asks about  2015th number, then it will simply be 201520152015..... ( 2015 written 2015 times )

Let D(N) denote the difference of sum of all even digits of N from sum of all odd digits of N. For example D(5678) = (5 + 7) – (6 + 8) = -2 and D(786) = (7) – (6 + 8) = -7.

Evaluate D(1) + D(2) + D(3) + …..+ D(9999).

4000

10000

20000


TG Team 10/10/2018 1:03 pm

0000 , 0001 , 0002 , 0003 , ........, 9999

Number of digits used : 4 x 10000 = 40000

Each digit used : 40000/10 = 4000times 

 D(1) + D(2) + D(3) + …..+ D(9999)= ( Sum of all odd digits used  ) - (Sum of all even digits used )

= ( 1+ 3 + 5 + 7 + 9) x 4000 - ( 0 + 2 + 4 + 6 + 8) x 4000 = 4000 x 5 = 20000. 

Option (D)

10th. 


TG Team 10/10/2018 5:00 pm

Alternative Approach for 7th  Question : 

Put x = 2 and check whether u is 8. 

Put x = 4 and check whether u is 4. 

Put x = 16 and check whether u is 2 or not . 

Only x = 4 satisfies the equation .

13th


aniket prajapati 10/10/2018 9:21 pm

there is a print error in question 25 option 1st should be  (2,-1/2)

now for solution; from given equation 

logx=ab logy-------------------(1)

logy=b log z--------------------(2)

logz= a logx 

substituting value of log z in 2nd

logy= ab logx-------------------(3)

from 1 and 2 

a2b2=1

now check options only E doesn't follow this condition

@utkarsh-garg25

Total yearly investment of Jatinder = (20000*4)+(16000*5)+(10000*3)=190000. For this investment, he is getting 19000 profit. Hence, for Ravinder to get Rs 19200 profit, his total investment should be 192000 for the year. Therefore, his initial investment should be 192000/12=16000.

FInd the odd term

13, 21, 34, 64, 89, 144


TG Team 10/10/2018 6:04 pm

13 , 21 , (13 + 21) , ( 21 + 34) , ( 34 + 55) , ( 55 + 89) ... and so on . 

Hence , 64.

If a, b, c are roots of x³ - 7x² - 6x + 5 = 0, find the value of (a + b)(b + c)(c + a).


aniket prajapati 12/10/2018 11:34 pm

a+b+c=7 .................(1)

ab+bc+ca= -6 .................(2)

abc= -5 

(a+b)(b+c)(c+a)=  (ab+ac+b^2 +bc)(c+a)

putting values from 1 and 2

(b² -6)(7-b)

7b²-b³ +6b-42

-(b³ -7b² -6b +42).................(3)

since b is a root of given polynomial therefore b satisfies given equation

b³ - 7b² - 6b+ 5 = 0

b³ - 7b² - 6b=  -5 

put in (3)

=  -(-5+42)

=  -37  (answer)
