1. Many formulae are used and they give different answers for the Index. 

2. As the customs and habits change from time to time, uses of commodities also vary.

Index number is a statistical measure designed to show an average change in a variable or group of related variables over a period. 

The limitations are: 

• Many formulae are used and they give different answers for the index. 

• As the customs and habits change from time to time, the use of commodities also vary. 

• There is an ample scope for bias in the construction of index number.

Coordination is a continuous process, by which a manager integrates the inter-related activities of different departments in order to achieve the common organisational goals.
Features of coordination are as follows:
(i) Integration of group efforts All business activities are interdependent. Therefore, there should be coordination among them. Coordination enables the business to make efficient use of its available resources.
(ii) Unity of action Coordination enables the manager to secure unity of action in the direction of a common purpose.
(iii) Continuous process It is a continuous process and not a one-time task. A manager has to continuously coordinate the activities of different departments in order to meet the targets by using the available resources efficiently.
(iv) All pervasive function It is an all pervasive function, which runs through all managerial functions from planning till controlling. It is not only needed among different departments but also within the departments at all levels.
(v) Deliberate function A manager has to coordinate the efforts of different individuals working in an organisation in a conscious and deliberate manner.

The need and importance of coordination can be judged from these points:

• It encourages team spirit, 
• It gives proper direction, 
• It facilitates motivation, 
• It makes optimum utilization of resources, 
• It helps to achieve objectives quickly, 
• It improves relations in the organization, 
• It leads to higher efficiency and 
• It improves goodwill of the organization.

The most important attribute of information quality that a manager requires is relevance.

Correct option is: (C) cotθ

As per Euclid’s lemma, 

We know that,

If a and b are two positive integers, then 

a = bq + r 

Where q and r are integers such that 0 ≤ r < b. 

Let a be any positive odd integer and b = 6. 

∴ a = 6q + r 

Where q and r are integers such that 0 ≤ r < 6. 

⇒ r = a − 6q 

Where r is an integer such that 0 ≤ r < 6. 

∴ r is odd interger and 0 ≤ r < 6. 

(∵ a is odd and 6q is even & odd − even = odd) 

∴ r can be either 1, 3 & 5. 

(Because 1, 3 & 5 are only odd integer in between 1 to 6) 

Case I :- If r = 1, then a = 6q + 1. 

Case II :- If r = 3 then a = 6q + 3. 

Case III :- If r = 5 then a = 6q+5. 

Hence,

Any positive odd integer is of the form (6q + 1) or (6q + 5), where q is some integer. 

Hence Proved.

Given:

The ratio of boys and girls in the school is 5 : 6.

After joining 24 new boys, the the ratio of boys and girls becomes 9 : 10.

Calculation:

Let the number of boys in the school be 5x.

Then the number of girls in the school is 6x.

After joining 24 new boys, the number of boys  = 5x + 24

According to the question;

The new ratio of boys and girls = 9 : 10.

⇒ (5x + 24)/6x = 9/10

⇒ 50x + 240 = 54x

⇒  4x = 240

⇒ x = 60

Then, the number of girls = 60 × 6 = 360

∴ The number of girls in the school is 360.

Given:

The ratio of boys and girls  =  7 : 9

Number of new boys = 22

New boys to girls ratio = 9 ∶ 10

Calculation:

Let be boys = 7x and girls be = 9x

⇒ {(7x+ 22)/9x} = 9/10

⇒ 70x + 220 = 81x

⇒ 11x = 220 

⇒ x = 20

Then put the value in Girls 

⇒ Girls =  20× 9 = 180 

∴ Girls are 180

Calculation:

Let total 25 paise coins be x

So, we can can calculate the values as follows:

(0.25 × x) + (0.10 × 2x) + (0.05 × 3x) = 45

⇒ 0.25x + 0.2x + 0.15x = 45

⇒ 0.6x = 45

⇒ x = 45/0.6 = 75

∴ There are 75 coins of 25p

Fitness is very important always. And fitness can be achieved only through exercise. Exercise helps in preventing excess weight gain or maintaining weight loss. When you engage in physical activity, you burn calories. Exercise keeps your blood flowing smoothly, which decreases your risk of cardiovascular diseases. In fact, regular physical activity can help you prevent or manage a wide range of health problems and concerns, including stroke, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, depression, and certain types of cancer, arthritis and falls.

In conclusion it can be said that all of us must include exercise in our daily routine.

(i) Customer can book a cab on a single click. Post booking, the cab driver receives the customer from his doorstep. This makes the customer’s ride easier as opposed to arguments with regular cab drivers and this is how the mobile-app based taxi business model has brought a revolution among the masses.

(ii) The cab drivers are not only paid well but also receive bonus for their efforts put in. Moreover, they have a systemized process in order to take the booking from a customer and to receive payments.

(iii) From the app-based taxi model, the cab drivers can now make anywhere between Rs. 80,000 to Rs.1,00,000 a month. Moreover, it is not a 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. job. Professionals see it as an entrepreneurial venture and hence opt it for both, its flexibility as well as the good pay.

(iv) In case of Uber, the drivers are paid 80% of the fare for every trip made, which is directly credited to their bank account. Also, a bonus of Rs.150 is paid for every trip during the peak hours and Rs. 50 during non-peak hours. Ola, provides the bonus to drivers if they do six trips in a day. Taxi For Sure charges the drivers with only 8-12% of the ride fare.

(v) Mr. Lokesh R. from Bengaluru, working under the mobile-app based taxi model business earns anywhere between Rs.80,000 to Rs.1,00,000 per month. He can be surely called a Happy cab driver as prior to this change, he was making a meag

(vi) Work pressure is a part and parcel of the cab driver’s job. The cab drivers can never keep their mobiles away, as they can’t ascertain when they will get their next call. At such times, wives of cab drivers help them track the cab movements through Google Maps and coordinate with them.

(vii) There are companies who offer cab purchasing schemes. Under this scheme, the drivers can purchase a cab, the financing for which is done by the companies. Here, the cab/vehicle for initial few years is attached to the company.

(viii) The mobile-app cabs have affected the regular cab drivers severely. This is because regular cab drivers are difficult to track and they have their choices for a place. Very few regular cabs are air-conditioned and in a good state

If H.C.F. of two numbers are 25 and L.C.M. is 50 then what will the multiplication 1250.

Given: m = 600kg, g = m/s² d = 5000 m, R = 6400 km = 6.4 x 10⁶ m 

To find: Decrease in weight of body (dW)

Formula: g_d = g [1- \(\frac{d}{R}\)]

Calculation: Weight of body on the earth surface, 

W = mg = 600 x 9.8 = 5880 N 

Since, W_d = mg_d

From formula,

W_d = mg [1- \(\frac{d}{R}\)]

=5880 [1- \(\frac{5\times10^3}{6.4\times10^6}\)]

=5880 [\(\frac{6.4-0.005}{6.4}\)]

= {antilog{log(5880) + [log(6.395) - log(6.4)]}} 

= {antilog[3.7694 + (0.8058 – 0.8062)]} 

= {antilog(3.7694 + 1.9996)} 

= {antilog(3.7690)}

∴ W_d = 5875 N

∴ Decrease in weight = W - W_d = 5880 – 5875 

dW = 5 N

Decrease in weight is 5 N.

Maximum displacement of the left ball from the left wall of the chamber is 2.25 cm, so the right ball has to travel almost the whole length of the chamber (4m) to hit the left ball. So the time taken by the right ball is 1.9 sec (approximately 2 sec)
