Question
A boat can cover 60 km in still water and 75 km in
downstream in 4 hours and 3 hours respectively. Find the time taken by the boat to cover 60 km upstream and 70 km downstream.Solution
Speed of the boat in still water = 60/4 = 15 km/h Downstream speed of the boat = 75/3 = 25 km/h Speed of the stream = 25 – 15 = 10 km/h Upstream speed of the boat = 15 – 10 = 5 km/h Time taken to cover 60 km upstream and 70 km downstream = 60/5 + 70/25 = 12 + 2.8 = 14.8 hours

Which of the following is NOT a type of data classification?
If Z1, Z2,…Zn are n independent standard normal variates, then Σni=1 Z2i will follow:
If the first, second, and third moment about the origin are 2, 8, and 18 respectively, then third moment about mean is
The mean deviation from an average A will be minimum, if A represents:
If the occurrence of events follows Poisson Process with mean rate λ, then inter-occurrence time of events will follow:
