Question
Which of the following would be the FIRST statement
after rearrangement? Directions : In the question given below, a set of sentences is given, which when properly sequenced, form a coherent paragraph. Arrange the sentences in the correct sequence, and answer the questions. P. Heat stress can exacerbate existing health conditions including diabetes, kidney disease and heart disease. Q. Older people are particularly vulnerable. R. One of the most confronting impacts of climate change is the risk of more deaths from hot weather. S. The study published in The Lancet found the cold kills more people in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane than the heat. T. It may then surprise you to learn a recent study has suggested climate change will decrease temperature-related deaths in Australia.Solution
RPQTS is the correct sequence. R begins the passage by establishing the subject. It talks about one of the fatal impacts of climate change, which is DEATH due to hot weather. P follows R. It takes the passage forward by telling us that heat stress can worsen the condition of people who are suffering from chronic diseases. Q follows P. It tells us that older people are more vulnerable. T follows Q. T and S form a mandatory pair. T tells us that a recent study has shown that climate change may actually lead to a decline in the number of heat related deaths in Australia. S follows T. It states that the study was published in The Lancet. It tells us that cold kills more people in some cities of Australia than the heat.
Simplify:
6x + 8y - [(12x + 6y) - (4x + 3y) + 2y] - 4xIf 9x2 + 16y2 = 24xy, then find the ratio of ‘x’ and ‘y’, respectively.
- Suppose [a + (1/16a)] = 3, then the value of [16a³ + (1/256a³)] is:
If, 6x + y = 20, and 2xy = 32, and 6x > y, then find the value of 216x³ – y³.
If x + 1/x = 2, find x⁷ + 1/x⁷.
(x – 6) 2 + (y + 2) 2 + (z – 4) 2 = 0, then find the value of 4x - 3y + z.
