Question : The population of a town increased from 100000 to 250000 in 5 years. What is the approximate compounded percent increase in population per year?
Option 1: 20 percent
Option 2: 30 percent
Option 3: 10 percent
Option 4: 40 percent
Correct Answer: 20 percent
Solution : Here, the initial population was 100,000 and the final population was 250,000. So, compound interest = 250000 – 100000 = 150000 Time = 5 years Let the rate of interest be $r$. We know, $\text{Compound interest}=\text{Principal}×(1+\frac{\text{Rate}}{100})^{\text{Time}}-\text{Principal}$ $⇒150000=100000(1+\frac{r}{100})^5-100000$ $⇒(1+\frac{r}{100})^5=\frac{250000}{100000}$ $⇒(1+\frac{r}{100})^5=(\frac{12}{10})^5$ [$\because \sqrt[5]{250000}\approx 12$] $⇒1+\frac{r}{100}=\frac{12}{10}$ $⇒r=20\%$

Question : The area of a sector is 1848$\mathrm{~m}^2$ and the central angle of the sector is $270°$. Find the radius of the circle. (Take $\pi=\frac{22}{ 7}$)
Option 1: 784 m
Option 2: 22 m
Option 3: 27 m
Option 4: 28 m
Correct Answer: 28 m
Solution : Given: Central angle of the sector = 270° Area of given sector = 1848 m2 We know, area of a sector = $\frac{\theta}{360°}\times{\pi r^2}$ So, $\frac{270°}{360°}\times{\frac{22}{7} r^2}=1848$ ⇒ $ r^2=1884\times\frac{4}{3}\times\frac{7}{22}$ ⇒ $r^2 = 28\times 28$ ⇒ $r=28$ m Hence, the correct answer is
