Cevap: The case should be referred to the Vice-Chairman of SDMA.

Cevap

The case should be referred to the Vice-Chairman of SDMA.

The applicant satisfies criterion 2 (age 33 falls between 30 and 45), criterion 3 (9 years field experience exceeds the 5-year requirement), and criterion 4 (3 research papers exceeds the minimum requirement of 2). She fails primary criterion 1 because she lacks a Master's degree. However, she meets all conditions of exception clause (i): holding a B.Tech in Civil Engineering with 74% marks (which is

\ge 70\%

) and having 9 years of field experience (which is

> 8

years). Therefore, her case must be referred to the Vice-Chairman of SDMA.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Evaluate primary criteria against candidate attributes

Age as of July 1, 2026 is 33 years (passes criterion 2: 30-45 years). Experience is 9 years (passes criterion 3: min 5 years). Research papers published is 3 (passes criterion 4: min 2 papers). Educational qualification is B.Tech with 74% (fails primary criterion 1 which requires a Master's degree).

Systematic verification identifies which primary conditions are satisfied and which single condition fails.

2

Cross-check applicable exception clauses for the failed criterion

Exception clause (i) addresses failure of criterion (1). It requires a B.Tech in Civil Engineering with

\ge 70\%

(candidate has 74%) and

> 8

years field experience (candidate has 9 years). Both conditions are met.

Candidates missing primary educational qualifications may qualify for administrative referral if specific exception thresholds are satisfied.

3

Determine the mandated administrative action

Under exception clause (i), the candidate's case must be referred to the Vice-Chairman of SDMA.

Following procedural protocol strictly dictates referral to the designated authority.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

The correct pairings match each action/phenomenon to its direct primary result: Implementation of HOV lanes and congestion pricing matches with marked modal shift toward public transit; Prolonged drainage blockages match with widespread traffic paralyzation and emergency delays; Electrification of transit buses matches with direct reduction in tailpipe emissions; and Rollout of a unified multi-modal ticketing system matches with improved transit interchange efficiency and lower fare burdens.

Each statement in List I serves as a direct cause or initiating policy intervention for the corresponding physical, behavioral, or economic outcome listed in List II.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Analyze the cause-effect mechanism for high-occupancy vehicle lanes and congestion pricing.

Imposing financial costs on peak private driving directly encourages public transportation adoption.

Economic disincentives for private driving produce a behavioral shift toward public transit.

2

Analyze the physical impact of blocked storm-water drainage during intense rainfall.

Excess surface runoff cannot drain, creating rapid inundation on arterial roadways.

Physical drainage failure directly leads to urban flooding, gridlock, and delayed emergency response.

3

Assess the environmental outcome of transitioning from diesel buses to electric fleet buses.

Internal combustion engines are eliminated from daily municipal routes.

Removing fossil-fuel burning vehicles directly cuts local air pollutants and acoustic noise.

4

Evaluate the effect of a unified multi-modal digital ticketing system.

Commuters use a single pass across trains, metros, and feeder buses.

Eliminating redundant single-operator ticketing minimizes transfer delay and lowers total multi-leg fare costs.

Analyze the administrative dilemma

Identified competing values: procedural justice and public trust versus operational efficiency and avoidance of exchequer loss.

Administrative decisions must balance natural justice with public interest and institutional efficiency.

2

Evaluate options against constitutional standards and administrative propriety

Determined that complete shutdown or informal alterations violate administrative balance or statutory protocol, while dismissing grievances violates natural justice.

Extreme measures or rule violations exacerbate administrative failures, whereas complete denial of grievance redressal damages public credibility.

3

Select the balanced course of action

Instituting an independent, time-bound technical review limited to the disputed section maintains due process while keeping the broader public project on schedule.

This minimizes financial loss while rigorously investigating potential corruption or procedural error.

- Exactly $20$ aspirants read all three newspapers.
- The ratio of the number of aspirants who read ONLY *The Hindu* and *The Indian Express* to those who read ONLY *The Indian Express* and *Business Standard* to those who read ONLY *The Hindu* and *Business Standard* is $3 : 2 : 4$ .
- The number of aspirants who read ONLY *Business Standard* is $70$ .

Cevap: $45$

Cevap

The total number of aspirants who do not read any of the three newspapers is 45.

By resolving the 7 disjoint regions of the Venn diagram using the given ratio

3k : 2k : 4k

, we find

k = 15

from the total for Business Standard (

180 = 70 + 4k + 2k + 20

). This yields exclusive intersection values of

45

,

30

, and

60

. Substituting these into the total for Indian Express (

210

) yields

\text{Only}(E) = 115

, which also equals

\text{Only}(H)

. Summing all seven disjoint regions gives

115 + 115 + 70 + 45 + 30 + 60 + 20 = 455

. Subtracting from the total population of

500

gives

45

aspirants who do not read any of the three newspapers.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Define disjoint regions of the Venn diagram using given variables.

Let

H

,

E

, and

B

denote the sets of readers. Let

\text{Only}(H \cap E) = 3k

,

\text{Only}(E \cap B) = 2k

, and

\text{Only}(H \cap B) = 4k

. The center intersection

\text{All Three} = 20

.

Setting up explicit variables for mutually exclusive regions allows algebraic representation of total set sizes.

2

Calculate the ratio constant

k

using the total for set

B

(Business Standard).

|B| = \text{Only}(B) + \text{Only}(H \cap B) + \text{Only}(E \cap B) + \text{All Three} \implies 180 = 70 + 4k + 2k + 20 \implies 90 = 6k \implies k = 15

.

All sub-regions comprising set

B

are known except

k

, making it possible to solve for

k

directly.

3

Determine the exact counts of two-set exclusive intersections.

\text{Only}(H \cap E) = 3(15) = 45

,

\text{Only}(E \cap B) = 2(15) = 30

, and

\text{Only}(H \cap B) = 4(15) = 60

.

Multiplying the ratio multipliers by

k = 15

gives exact counts for each overlap.

4

Calculate

\text{Only}(E)

and

\text{Only}(H)

.

|E| = \text{Only}(E) + 45 + 30 + 20 = 210 \implies \text{Only}(E) = 115

. Since

\text{Only}(H) = \text{Only}(E)

,

\text{Only}(H) = 115

.

Subtracting known intersection counts of set

E

from

|E| = 210

gives

\text{Only}(E)

, which equals

\text{Only}(H)

.

5

Calculate the total number of aspirants who read at least one newspaper and find the complement.

|H \cup E \cup B| = 115 + 115 + 70 + 45 + 30 + 60 + 20 = 455

. Aspirants reading none

= 500 - 455 = 45

.

Summing all 7 disjoint regions gives the union. Subtracting the union from the universal set gives the number of aspirants reading no newspaper.

Cevap: 5

Cevap

The unit digit of the given expression is 5.

Evaluating each component:

432^{216}

ends in 6 (since 216 is divisible by 4, giving

2^4 = 16

),

517^{142}

ends in 9 (

142 \pmod 4 = 2

, giving

7^2 = 49

), and

734^{121} \times 283^{105}

ends in

4 \times 3 = 12 \rightarrow 2

. Combining these gives

(6 - 9 - 2) = -5 \equiv 5 \pmod{10}

. Thus, the option with value 5 is correct.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Determine the unit digit of the first term

432^{216}

Unit digit is 6

The base unit digit is 2, which has a cyclicity of 4 (pattern: 2, 4, 8, 6). Dividing exponent 216 by 4 gives a remainder of 0. When the remainder is 0, we use the 4th power:

2^4 = 16

, so the unit digit is 6.

2

Determine the unit digit of the second term

517^{142}

Unit digit is 9

The base unit digit is 7, which has a cyclicity of 4 (pattern: 7, 9, 3, 1). Dividing exponent 142 by 4 gives a remainder of 2. Taking

7^2 = 49

, the unit digit is 9.

3

Determine the unit digit of the product term

734^{121} \times 283^{105}

Unit digit is 2

For

734^{121}

, base 4 with an odd exponent gives unit digit 4. For

283^{105}

, base 3 with exponent

105 \pmod 4 = 1

gives unit digit 3. Multiplying their unit digits:

4 \times 3 = 12

, so the unit digit is 2.

Evaluate the following mathematical expression by applying the standard order of operations (BODMAS):

18 \div \left[ 4 \frac{1}{2} - \left\{ 2 \frac{1}{4} + \frac{3}{4} \times \left( 4.8 - \overline{2.4 + 0.4} \right) \right\} \right] + 5.5

What is the final numerical value of the simplified expression?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 29.5

Cevap

The simplified numerical value of the given expression is 29.5.

Following the BODMAS rule systematically, we first resolve the vinculum to get 2.8, then evaluate the round brackets (4.8 - 2.8 = 2.0). Next, inside the curly brackets, multiplication yields 1.5 and addition yields 3.75. Evaluating the square brackets yields 4.5 - 3.75 = 0.75. Dividing 18 by 0.75 gives 24, and adding 5.5 gives the final correct answer of 29.5.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Evaluate the expression under the vinculum bar

\overline{2.4 + 0.4} = 2.8

The vinculum (bar) takes highest priority over standard parentheses and operations.

2

Simplify the innermost round brackets

4.8 - 2.8 = 2.0

Perform subtraction inside the round brackets next.

3

Perform multiplication inside the curly brackets

\frac{3}{4} \times 2.0 = 1.5

Multiplication precedes addition within the curly brackets according to BODMAS.

4

Complete evaluation inside the curly brackets

2 \frac{1}{4} + 1.5 = 2.25 + 1.5 = 3.75

Convert the mixed fraction 2 1/4 to decimal 2.25 and add 1.5.

5

Evaluate the terms inside the square brackets

4 \frac{1}{2} - 3.75 = 4.5 - 3.75 = 0.75

Convert mixed fraction 4 1/2 to decimal 4.5 and subtract 3.75.

6

Perform division before final addition

18 \div 0.75 = 24

Division takes precedence over the final addition operation.

7

Add the final constant

24 + 5.5 = 29.5

Complete the evaluation by adding 5.5 to 24.

Cevap: 173

Cevap

The simplified numerical value of the expression is 173.

Applying the VBODMAS rule sequentially (vinculum, round brackets, multiplication, addition within curly brackets, square bracket division, percentage evaluation, and final subtraction) yields 173.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Evaluate the vinculum bar expression

\overline{1.8 - 0.8} = 1.0

Under VBODMAS rules, the vinculum (bar) grouping has the highest priority and must be evaluated first.

2

Evaluate the subtraction inside the round brackets

3.5 - 1.0 = 2.5

Evaluate the parentheses next using the result from the vinculum evaluation.

3

Perform multiplication inside the curly brackets

2.5 \times 1.5 = 3.75

Within the curly brackets, multiplication precedes addition according to BODMAS.

4

Perform addition inside the curly brackets

2\frac{1}{4} + 3.75 = 2.25 + 3.75 = 6.0

Convert the mixed fraction

2\frac{1}{4}

to decimal

2.25

and add to

3.75

.

5

Perform division inside the square brackets

42 \div 6.0 = 7

Resolve the square brackets by dividing 42 by the value of the curly bracket expression.

6

Evaluate the percentage 'of' expression

75\% \text{ of } 240 = 0.75 \times 240 = 180

The 'of' operator indicates multiplication applied to percentage.

7

Subtract the square bracket result from the percentage value

180 - 7 = 173

Perform final subtraction to complete the calculation.

Cevap: 93

Cevap

The simplified numerical value of the given expression is 93.

Following the BODMAS rule: first evaluate the vinculum $\overline{2.1 + 0.9} = 3$, then the round bracket $4.5 - 3 = 1.5$, then the curly bracket $36 \div 1.5 = 24$, then the square bracket $5.25 + 24 = 29.25$. Next, evaluate the percentage term $60\% \text{ of } 350 = 210$ and the product $29.25 \times 4 = 117$. Finally, subtracting 117 from 210 gives 93.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Evaluate the expression under the vinculum bar

\overline{2.1 + 0.9} = 3.0

The vinculum (bar) has the highest priority inside nested grouping symbols.

2

Evaluate the terms inside the round brackets

4.5 - 3.0 = 1.5

Subtract the result of the vinculum from 4.5 inside the round brackets.

3

Evaluate the division inside the curly brackets

36 \div 1.5 = 24

Perform division within the curly braces.

4

Evaluate the addition inside the square brackets

5 \frac{1}{4} + 24 = 5.25 + 24 = 29.25

Convert the mixed fraction to decimal (5.25) and add to 24.

5

Calculate the percentage term and multiplication term

60\% \text{ of } 350 = \frac{60}{100} \times 350 = 210 \quad \text{and} \quad 29.25 \times 4 = 117

According to BODMAS, percentage/off and multiplication must be computed before final subtraction.

6

Perform the final subtraction

210 - 117 = 93

Subtract the multiplied bracket result from the percentage value.

To find the number of officers who completed neither course, calculate the union of the two sets using inclusion-exclusion:

n(\text{Data Analytics} \cup \text{Public Policy}) = 45 + 40 - 15 = 70

. The number of officers who completed neither course is the complement of this union relative to the total group:

80 - 70 = 10

.

The unit digit of the expression is 1.

The correct answer is derived by determining the cyclicity of each base's unit digit: 8 has cyclicity 4 (with remainder 0 yielding unit digit 6), 4 has cyclicity 2 (odd exponent yielding unit digit 4), and 7 has cyclicity 4 (remainder 2 yielding unit digit 9). Combining these yields (6 + 4) - 9 = 1.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Find the unit digit of

138^{124}

Unit digit is 6

The unit digit of the base is 8. The cyclicity of 8 is 4 (8, 4, 2, 6). Dividing the exponent 124 by 4 gives a remainder of 0. A remainder of 0 corresponds to the 4th power in the cycle (

8^4 = 4096

), so the unit digit is 6.

2

Find the unit digit of

264^{93}

Unit digit is 4

The unit digit of the base is 4. The cyclicity of 4 is 2 (

4^1 = 4, 4^2 = 6

). Since the exponent 93 is odd, the unit digit is 4.

Find the unit digit of

177^{54}

Unit digit is 9

The unit digit of the base is 7. The cyclicity of 7 is 4 (7, 9, 3, 1). Dividing the exponent 54 by 4 gives a remainder of 2 (

54 = 4 \times 13 + 2

). Thus, the unit digit is

7^2 = 49

, which ends in 9.

4

Combine the unit digits according to the expression

Unit digit is 1

Cevap: 6

Cevap

The unit digit of the given expression is 6.

Evaluating each component using cyclicity of unit digits:

332^{520}

has base unit digit 2 and exponent divisible by 4 (

520 \bmod 4 = 0

), so its unit digit is

2^4 \implies 6

.

553^{213}

has base unit digit 3 with

213 \bmod 4 = 1

, giving unit digit

3^1 = 3

.

448^{631}

has base unit digit 8 with

631 \bmod 4 = 3

, giving unit digit

8^3 \implies 2

. Combining these gives

(6 \times 3) - 2 = 18 - 2 = 16

, which yields a final unit digit of 6.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Determine the unit digit of

332^{520}

using cyclicity of 2

Unit digit is 6

The unit digit of base 332 is 2. The cyclicity of 2 is 4 (2, 4, 8, 6). Dividing the exponent 520 by 4 gives a remainder of 0. When remainder is 0, we take the 4th power:

2^4 = 16

, so the unit digit is 6.

2

Determine the unit digit of

553^{213}

using cyclicity of 3

Unit digit is 3

The unit digit of base 553 is 3. The cyclicity of 3 is 4 (3, 9, 7, 1). Dividing the exponent 213 by 4 gives a remainder of 1 (

213 = 4 \times 53 + 1

). Thus, the unit digit is

3^1 = 3

.

3

Determine the unit digit of

448^{631}

using cyclicity of 8

Unit digit is 2

The unit digit of base 448 is 8. The cyclicity of 8 is 4 (8, 4, 2, 6). Dividing the exponent 631 by 4 gives a remainder of 3 (

631 = 4 \times 157 + 3

). Thus, the unit digit is

8^3 = 512

, which ends in 2.

4

Combine the unit digits according to the expression

E = (332^{520} \times 553^{213}) - 448^{631}

Unit digit is 6

First multiply the unit digits of the first two terms:

6 \times 3 = 18 \implies 8

. Then subtract the unit digit of the third term:

8 - 2 = 6

.

Determine the exact result of the given mathematical expression after applying the standard order of operations (BODMAS):

32.4 - \frac{4}{5} \times \left[ 45 \div \left\{ 2.5 \times 4 - \left( 7.6 - \overline{4.1 - 1.5} \right) \right\} \right]

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 25.2

Cevap

The simplified numerical value of the expression is 25.2.

Following the standard BODMAS priority order: evaluate the vinculum (4.1 - 1.5 = 2.6), round brackets (7.6 - 2.6 = 5), curly brackets (2.5 * 4 - 5 = 5), square brackets (45 / 5 = 9), multiplication ((4/5) * 9 = 7.2), and finally subtraction (32.4 - 7.2 = 25.2).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Evaluate the sub-expression under the vinculum bar

\overline{4.1 - 1.5} = 2.6

The vinculum acts as the innermost grouping symbol and takes highest priority.

2

Simplify the expression inside the round brackets

(7.6 - 2.6) = 5.0

Parentheses (round brackets) are evaluated next.

3

Evaluate operations inside the curly brackets using operator precedence

\{2.5 \times 4 - 5.0\} = \{10 - 5.0\} = 5

Multiplication precedes subtraction inside the curly brackets.

4

Evaluate the division inside the square brackets

[45 \div 5] = 9

Square brackets are solved after resolving inner curly brackets.

5

Perform multiplication outside the bracket

\frac{4}{5} \times 9 = 0.8 \times 9 = 7.2

Multiplication takes precedence over final addition/subtraction.

6

Perform the final subtraction

32.4 - 7.2 = 25.2

Subtraction is the final step in the BODMAS order of operations.
