Question : What is the average of the first six (positive) odd numbers each of which is divisible by 7?
Option 1: 42
Option 2: 43
Option 3: 47
Option 4: 49
Correct Answer: 42
Solution : The first six positive odd numbers that are divisible by 7 are 7, 21, 35, 49, 63 and 77. So, the average of these six numbers is: $\text{Average}=\frac{\text{Sum of all the observations}}{{\text{Total number of observations}}}=\frac{7 + 21 + 35 + 49 + 63 + 77}{6}
Question : If $0°<A<90°$, the value of $\frac{\tan A\ -\ \sec A\ -\ 1}{\tan A\ +\ \sec A\ +\ 1}$ is:
Option 1: $\frac{\sin A-1}{\cos A}$
Option 2: $\frac{1-\sin A}{\cos A}$
Option 3: $\frac{1-\cos A}{\sin A}$
Option 4: $\frac{\sin A+1}{\cos A}$
Correct Answer: $\frac{\sin A-1}{\cos A}$
Solution : Given: $\frac{\tan A-\sec A-1}{\tan A+\sec A+1}$ = $\frac{\tan A-\sec A-(\sec^{2} A-\tan^{2} A)}{\tan A+\sec A+1}$ = $\frac{(\tan A-\sec A)-(\sec A-\tan A)(\sec A+\tan A)}{\tan A+\sec A+1}$ = $\frac{(\tan A-\sec A)+(\tan A-\sec A)(\sec A+\tan A)}{\tan A+\sec A+1}$ = $\frac{(\tan A-\sec A)(1+\sec A+\tan A)}{\tan A+\sec A+1}$ =
Question : Directions: The diagram shows the age distribution of patients admitted to a hospital on a particular day. Study the diagram and answer the question. The number of patients of age more than 40 years and less than 55 years, old who were admitted to the hospital on that day is:
