You are, therefore, requested to take effective steps to remove our difficulties.

With thanks

My dear Sansarika,

I was deeply shocked to learn about your father’s sad and untimely demise (death). He was a kind and gentleman. He always treated me like his own son. A man in the world, must go one day. It is the law of Nature. No one can change it.

It is a sad and irreparable loss to you. But we are helpless here. We have to bear it. I cannot express in words my grief at the loss of your father. I pray to God to give you strength to bear this loss. May God grant peace to his soul. With deep sympathy

Yours sincerely

Sub: Female Foeticide

Sir,

Gap in the male-female ratio is widening year after year. Female foeticide is much observed these days. Obviously, conservative traditions, modem machines for diagnosis, government passiveness, women’s dependence, educational backwardness etc. have aggravated this problem. Government should enact stringent laws and implement them effectively. The detection of sex of the foetus should completely be banned. Free education to the girls for whole life should be provided. Public awareness should be strengthened.

Thanking you

Sub: Necessity of a public park

Madam,

I want to draw the attention of the authorities concerned to the need of public parks in our cities and towns in general and my town (Sanganer) in particular.

The houses are spreading only vertically with storeys after storeys climbing on top of each other. In such conditions, public parks are indispensable. They provide open-air spaces to the residents and playgrounds to the children. In fact, they function as lungs to the suffocated residential areas of our towns.

Sanganer is one such town. It is an industrial town with multi-storeyed buildings. The children have no place to play nor the old men to relax. A big public park is just the right thing that the people of this town need.

Government should search the free land to establish parks. The public should suggest for the options to the authorities.
I request the concerned authorities to develop a public park in the town.

With thanks

Yours truly

Sub: Suggestions to keep Sawai Madhopur clean

Sir,

Through the columns of your esteemed newspaper, I would like to put some suggestions before the public and the authorities how to keep Sawai Madhopur clean.

Firstly, there should be door to door collection of garbage on contract on monthly charges basis. This collection by machines can be converted into compost. Secondly, garbage containers should be kept on both sides of the roads. Thirdly, drainage and sewerage systems should be underground. This wastewater should be recycled by machines. Fourthly, there should be mass awareness programme. Finally, strict actions should be taken against the offenders.

In this way, we can keep Sawai Madhopur clean.

Thanking you

Yours truly

Sub: Pollution caused by smokers

Sir,

Despite a law against smoking in public places, one can see people smoking in buses, trains, hospitals, parks and other places of public utility. Unless a drive is conducted to make people aware of the dangers of passive smoking and the existence of a law against smoking in public places, this problem will continue.

Smokers should be charged penalty. People should oppose smokers in public places.

I hope the authorities will take strict actions to stop the pollution caused by smokers.

Thanking you

Sub: The problem of unemployment and suggestions for tackling it

Sir,

The problem of unemployment has baffled the minds of the rulers as well as the ruled in India. A few from among a thousand get selection and the rest return to their homes with heavy hearts. A beginning can be made by providing technical education to those who show an aptitude for it. Along with it, let loans be made easily available to those who want to start small-scale industries in their hometowns.

Those who are interested in and show an aptitude for literary pursuits should be allowed to seek admission in a college. This way the problem of unemployment among the educated young men can be tackled to some extent.

Thanking you

Sub: Environment pollution by vehicles

Sir,

Through the columns of your esteemed newspaper, I would like to draw the attention of the authorities and the public to the growing menace of environmental pollution by vehicles.

The emission of smoke by vehicles is increasing carbon dioxide in atmosphere. Consequently, the temperature is increasing. It disturbs the delicate environmental balance. It harms human beings in many ways. The hydrocarbons and other particles emitted by the vehicles add fuel to the fire.

‘Public Transport System’ should be made fast, frequent, comfortable and cheap. Metro rails and sky bus are helpful. Eco-friendly devices add green fuel should be used in vehicles. Overloadedness should be banned.

With thanks

Given:

Percentage difference of the number of boys and girls in the hostel = 18%

Concept used:

Percentage increase = (100 + Increment in percentage)/100

Calculation:

Boys = [(100 + 18)/100] × Girls

Boys = (118/100) × Girls

Boys : Girls = 118 : 100

⇒ Boys : Girls = 59 : 50

∴ The ratio of boys and girls = 59 : 50

Sub: Noise pollution in our locality

Sir,

I am a resident of Jawahar Nagar, Jaipur. As this colony is situated on a national highway, it suffers from noise pollution in a big way. Thousands of trucks and other heavy vehicles pass on the nearby road with great noise of horns and engines. The students are the hardest hit. They fail to concentrate on their studies at night. The problem of noise is further aggravated by the loud-speakers that blare out ‘bhajans’ from the temples of colony.

The national highway should be shifted away from the colony. A ban must be imposed on the use of microphones at night.

Thanking you

Yours truly

XYZ

Ans: 4

Given:

distance = 500m, speed = 30 km/h

Formula used:

Time = Distance/Speed

Calculation:

First we change speed in meter/minute

⇒ S = (30 × 1000)/60

⇒ 500 meter/minute

Time = Distance/Speed

⇒ 500/500 = 1 minute

∴ Shyam will take 1 minute to cover this distance.

(a) Pilgrim centres is preferred by the third largest number of tourists. 

(b) Hill stations are preferred more than beach resorts. 

(c) Theme Parks are preferred the least.

Given:

Total time car runs = 11 hours

Formula used:

Time = Distance/speed

Calculations:

Let the speed of the car initially be x

For the first 100 km car runs with speed = x km/hr

After 100 km car increases speed by 15 km/hr = x + 15

Remaining distance = 280 km 

Total time  = 100/x + 280/(x + 15)

⇒ 11 = [(x + 15)100 + 280 × x]/[x(x + 15)]

⇒ 11 = (100x + 1500 + 280x )/(x² + 15x)

⇒ 11(x² + 15x) = 380x + 1500

⇒ 11x² + 165x = 380x + 1500

⇒ 11x2 + 165x - 380x - 1500 = 0

⇒ 11x2 - 215x  - 1500 = 0

⇒ 11x² - 275x + 60x - 1500 = 0

⇒ 11x(x - 25) + 60(x - 25) = 0

⇒ (11x + 60)(x - 25) = 0

So, x = - 60/11 or x = 25

Speed can't be negative so, x = 25

Initially speed was 25 km/h

Required time to cover the first 100 km is 100/25 = 4 hours.

∴ It takes 4 hours to cover the first 100 km.

Go straight. Turn right and walk up to the junction. Take the road up North and you will find a pharmacy just opposite to MIOT Hospital.

Given:

Car travel for 11 hours.

First 100 km, he traveled at a certain speed,

Remaining 280km distance traveled by the increased speed by 15km/hr

Formula Used:

Speed = Distance/Time

ax² + bx + c = 0,

To solve the quadratic equation for bigger numbers,

Use for x = {b +/- √(b²  – 4ac)}/2a

Calculation:

Time = Distance/Speed

A car traveled for 11 hours.

Let the initial speed of a car be x

⇒ 11 = 100/x + 280/(x + 15)

⇒ 11 = {100(x + 15) + 280x}/x(x + 15)

⇒ 11 = {100x + 1500 + 280x}/x² + 15x

⇒ 11(x² + 15x) = 380x + 1500 

⇒ 11x2 + 165x = 380x + 1500

⇒ 11x2 + 165x – 380x – 1500 = 0

⇒ 11x2 – 215x – 1500 = 0

Compairing with the quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0,

we get,

a = 11, b = – 215, c = –1500

Using formula {–b +/- √(b2  – 4ac)}/2a

⇒ {–(– 215) +/- √(– 2152  – 4(11)(–1500))}/2(11)

⇒ {215 +/- √(46225 + 66,000)}/22

⇒ {215 +/- √1,12,225}/22

⇒ (215 +/- 335)/22

⇒ (215 + 335)/22 OR (215 – 335)/22

⇒ 550/22 OR –120/22

⇒ 25 OR –5.4545

Speed can not be negative

Initial speed of a car is 25km/hr.

Speed = Distance/Time

⇒ 25 = 100/Time

⇒ Time = 100/25

⇒ Time = 4 hours.

∴ Time taken by him to cover 100km distance is 4 hours.

Correct option is C) related

(a) Hill station 

(b) 14000 tourists visited Andaman 

(c) Rajasthan and Trichy are the two tourist centres that are least preferred by most of the tourists.

Given:

Investment of A = Rs.3600

Investment of B = Rs.2700

Ratio of profit of A and B = 8 : 3

Calculation:

⇒ Ratio of Profit = (Capital of A × Time)/(Capital of B × Time)

⇒ Let B’s time period in the investment = X month.

⇒ (3600 × 12)/(2700 × X) = 8/3

⇒ X = (3600 × 12 × 3)/(2700 × 8)

X = 6 months

∴ B joined A for 6 months.
