the speed at which a woman can row a boat in still water is 30 kmph . if he rows downstream , where the speed of current is 6 kmph , what time will he take to cover 100 metres ?
[ "8", "9", "10", "11" ]
C
"speed of the boat downstream = 30 + 6 = 36 kmph = 36 * 5 / 18 = 10 m / s hence time taken to cover 100 m = 100 / 10 = 10 seconds . answer : c"

3 years ago , the ratio of ages of p and q was 4 : 3 . 6 years from now , the ratio of their ages will be 7 : 6 . what is p ' s age at present ?
[ "9", "12", "15", "18" ]
C
3 ( p - 3 ) / 4 = ( q - 3 ) . then q = 3 ( p - 3 ) / 4 + 3 6 ( p + 6 ) / 7 = q + 6 6 ( p + 6 ) / 7 = 3 ( p - 3 ) / 4 + 9 24 p + 144 = 21 p + 189 3 p = 45 p = 15 the answer is c .

B
Ans. is 'b' i.e., Parathyroid related peptide * Hypercalcemia is the most common paraneoplastic syndrome. Most commonly it is caused by parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTHRP), followed by TNF-a, IL-1, and TGF. Lymphomas cause hypercalcemia due to secretion of 1, 25 dihydroxy vitamin D (Calcitriol).
