Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: diverted

Question : X is directly proportional to the square of Y. When X is 12, then Y is 2. Find the value of X when Y is 3.

Option 1: 30

Option 2: 9

Option 3: 27

Option 4: 18

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Solution : $X\propto Y^2⇒ X = kY^2$
⇒ $\frac{\mathrm{X{_1}}}{\mathrm{Y^2{_1}}} = \frac{\mathrm{X{_2}}}{\mathrm{Y^2{_2}}} $
⇒ $\frac{12}{2^2} = \frac{\mathrm{X{_2}}}{3^2}$
⇒ $\mathrm{X{_2}} = \frac{12}{4}\times 9$
⇒ $\mathrm{X{_2}} = 27$
Hence, the correct answer is 27.

Question : Select the most appropriate option to improve the underlined segment in the given sentence. If there is no need to improve it, select 'No improvement'.

The place was not cold only and also damp.

Option 1: No improvement

Option 2: only cold not also

Option 3: not only cold but also

Option 4: not only cold and both

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: not only cold but also


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

Explanation: The original sentence, "The place was not cold only and also damp," is grammatically incorrect. We would use the correlative conjunctions "not only...but also" to link two similar ideas ("cold" and "damp"). This structure helps to emphasise both qualities of the place.

Therefore, the revised sentence is: "The place was not only cold but also damp."
