40r:50t
44r : 50t
50r : 44t
44r:55t
55r:44t
Correct answer is C
Ratio of bread to sugar = r:t
25% increase in bread = \(\frac{125r}{100}\)
10% increase in sugar = \(\frac{100t}{100}\)
New ratio = \(\frac{125r}{100}\):\(\frac{110t}{100}\)
= 25r:22t
= 50r:44t
If sine x equals cosine x, what is x in radians?
\(\frac{\pi}{2}\)
\(\frac{\pi}{3}\)
\(\frac{\pi}{4}\)
\(\frac{\pi}{6}\)
\(\frac{\pi}{12}\)
Correct answer is C
\(\sin x = \cos x\)
\(\implies x = 45°\)
In radians, \(x = \frac{\pi}{4}\).

27
\(\frac{1}{9}\)
\(\frac{1}{27}\)
\(\frac{1}{81}\)
Correct answer is A
\(x \propto \frac{1}{y}\)
\(x = \frac{k}{y}\)
\(y \propto t^{2}\)
\(y = ct^{2}\)
k and c are constants.
\(x = \frac{k}{ct^{2}}\)
Let \(\frac{k}{c} = d\) (a constant)
\(x = \frac{d}{t^{2}}\)
\(1 = \frac{d}{3^{2}} \implies d = 9\)
\(\therefore x = \frac{9}{t^{2}}\)
\(x = 9 \div (\frac{1}{3})^{2} \)
= \( 9 \div \frac{1}{9} = 9 \times 9 = 81\)
