The given statement refers to the classification of pharmacological effects of the drug. This is because any drug that is used to counteract the effects of excess acid in the stomach is called an antacid.

A large number of people are suffering from diseases such as diabetes and obesity. These people cannot take normal sugar i.e., sucrose as it is harmful for them. Therefore, artificial sweetening agents that do not add to the calorie intake of a person are required. Saccharin, aspartame, and alitame are a few examples of artificial sweeteners.

Artificial sweetening agents are chemicals that sweeten food. However, unlike natural sweeteners, they do not add calories to our body. They do not harm the human body. Some artificial sweeteners are aspartame, saccharin, sucrolose, and alitame.

Sub: Description of a dance performance and of an art gallery

Sir,

On 10 March 20, a group of Russian dancers gave a dance performance of the Rajasthani Ghoomer Dance. Their ghaghras were of 20 kilos. Their bending and encircling were remarkable. Everyone praised them.

On the same day, I visited the art gallery of the Jawahar Kala Kendra. The arts of the famous artisans and painters were shown. These were entertaining and instructive.

Organiser could make this programme better by using modem lighting system. Sitting arrangement needed more attention.
Please, publish it and oblige.

Thanking you

Yours truly

Correct option is C) library

Total number of cars in the deck = 52. 

(a) Total king cards are 4 in which 2 are black suited and 2 are red suited. 

Therefore, total number of king card which is red suited = 2. 

Probability of getting a king of red suit 

= \(\frac{Total\, red\, suited\, king\,card}{Total\, number\, of\,cards\, in \,the\, deck}\) = \(\frac{2}{52} = \frac{1}{26}\)

Hence, option (ii) is correct.

(b) The probability of not getting a king or red suit = 1 – probability of getting a king of red suit 

= 1– \(\frac{1}{26}\) = \(\frac{25}{26}\) .

Hence, option (ii) is correct.

(c) Total number of face cards = 3 × 4 = 12. (∵ Jack, Queen & king cards are face cards)

Therefore, the probability of getting a face and 

= \(\frac{Total\, number\, of\, face\, card}{Total\, number\, of\, cards\, in\, the \, deck}\) = \(\frac{12}{52}= \frac{3}{13}.\)

Hence, option (iii) is correct. 

(d) Total number of red face card = 3× 2 = 6.

Therefore, the probability of getting a red face card 

= \(\frac{Total\, number\, of\, red\, face\, card} {Total\, number\, of \,cards \,in \,deck}\) = \(\frac{6}{52} = \frac{3}{26}\)

Hence, option (ii) is correct. 

(e) Total number of spade cards = 13. 

Therefore, the probability of getting a spade card 

= \(\frac{Total \,number\,of \,spade \,cards}{Total \,number\, of \,cards\, in \,the\, deck}\) = \(\frac{13}{52} = \frac{1}{4}\)

Given that point A(4, 3) lies on a circle whose centre is O(2, 3). 

∴ Distance between points O(2, 3) & A(4, 3) is equals to the radius of the circle.

∴ Radius of the circle is r = \(\sqrt{(4-2)^2+(3-3)^2}\) (By distance formula)

Hence, the radius of the circle is r = 2 unit.

Now, the equation of the circle whose centre is O(2, 3) and radius 2 is

(x – 2)² + (y – 3)² = 2²

⇒ x² – 4x + 4 + y2 – 6y + 9 = 4 (∵ (a – b)² = a² + b² – 2ab)

⇒ x² + y2 – 4x – 6y + 9 = 0. …(1)

Since, point B(x, 5) lie on the circle whose equation given by equation (1), 

therefore, 

point B(x, 5) satisfies equation (1).

∴ x² + 5² – 4x – 30 + 9 = 0 

⇒ x² – 4x – 21 + 25 = 0 

⇒ x² – 4x + 4 = 0 

⇒ (x – 2)² = 0 

⇒ x – 2 = 0 

⇒ x = 2. 

Hence, the value of x is x = 2.

The probability that you will get admission in more than 4 colleges is P(x > 4) = 0.

Hence, the probability of getting admission in more than 4 colleges is 0.
