Question : If $\frac{(3 \sin \theta-\cos \theta)}{(\cos \theta+\sin \theta)}=1$, then the value of $\cot \theta$ is:

Option 1: 3

Option 2: 0

Option 3: 1

Option 4: 2

Team Careers360 22nd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 1


Solution : $\frac{(3 \sin \theta-\cos \theta)}{(\cos \theta+\sin \theta)}=1$
Divide the numerator and denominator by $\sin \theta$.
${(3 -\cot \theta)}={(\cot \theta+ 1)}$
⇒ $2\cot \theta = 2$
⇒ $\cot \theta=1$
Hence, the correct answer is 1.

Question : The population of the city is 20,000. It increases by 20% during the first year and 30% during the second year. The population after two years will be:

Option 1: 32,000

Option 2: 40,000

Option 3: 31,200

Option 4: 30,000

Team Careers360 18th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 31,200


Solution : Population after two years $= P(1+\frac{R_1}{100})(1+\frac{R_2}{100})$
where $P$ is the initial population, $R_1$ is the rate of increase in the first year and $R_2$ is the rate of increase in the second year.
$= 20000(1+\frac{20}{100})(1+\frac{30}{100})$
$= 20000(\frac{120}{100})(\frac{130}{100})$
$= 31,200$
Hence, the correct answer is 31,200.
