61. Alok and Bhanu play the following min-max game. Given the expression N = 25 + X + Y - Z , where X, Y and Z are variables representing single digits (0 to 9), Alok would like to maximize N while Bhanu would like to minimize it. Towards this end, Alok chooses a single digit number and Bhanu substitutes this for a variable of her choice (X, Y or Z). Alok then chooses the next value and Bhanu, the variable to substitute the value. Finally Alok proposes the value for the remaining variable. Assuming both plays to their optimal strategies, the value of N at the end of the game would be
Answer:
Explanation:For these type of ques, remember dis thumb rule.. X*Y-Z=18
X+Y-Z=11 X-Y-Z=2
So
N = 25 + X + Y - Z
N= 25+11=36

62. A hare and tortoise a race along a circle of 100 yards diameter. The tortoise goes in one direction and the hare in the other. The hare starts after tortoise has covered 1/5 its distance and that leisurely. The hare and tortoise meet when the hare has covered only 1/4 of the distance. By what factor should the hare increase its speed so as to tie the race?
Answer:
Explanation:First distance = 1/x Second distance = 1/y Let z = xy-x
Required factor will be = z*(z-y)/x^2 In this question..
x=5, y=4
z=5*4-5=15
z-y = 15-4 = 11
Required factor = 15*11/25 =6.6

63. For the FIFA world cup, Paul the octopus has been predicting the winner of each match with amazing success. It is rumoured that in a match between 2 teams A and B, Paul picks A with the same probability as A's chances of winning. Let's assume such rumours to be true and that in a match between Ghana and Bolivia, Ghana the stronger team has a probability of 2/3 of winning the game. What is the probability that Paul will correctly pick the winner of the Ghana- Bolivia game?
Answer:
Explanation:Paul picks A with the same probability as A's chances of winning.
Chance of A winning = 2/3
Prediction of octopus is also = 2/3 (given in question)
Chance of B winning = 1/3 Octopus prediction = 1/3
So probability of picking a winner = (prob picking of Ghana * Ghana winning + prob picking of Bolivia * Bolivia winning)
= (2/3)*(2/3) +(1/3)*(1/3) = 5/9.
