We will be solving interesting sets as a part of this series LRDI of the Day. I will be posting a video solution by the end of the day. You can keep a track of all the sets by clicking here: LRDI of the Day
#LRDIoftheDay #11
The regular mathematics faculty could not teach because of being sick. As a stop gap arrangement, different visiting faculty taught different topics on 4 different days in a week. The scheduled time for class was 7:00 am with maximum permissible delay of 20 minutes. The monsoon made the city bus schedules erratic and therefore the classes started on different times on different days.
Mr. Singh didn’t teach on Thursday. Calculus was taught in the class that started at 7:20 am. Mr. Chatterjee took the class on Wednesday, but he didn’t teach probability. The class on Monday started at 7:00 am, but Mr. Singh didn’t teach it. Mr. Dutta didn’t teach ratio and proportion. Mr. Banerjee, who didn’t teach set theory, taught a class that started five minutes later than the class featuring the teacher who taught probability. The teacher in Friday’s class taught set theory. Wednesday’s class didn’t start at 7:10 am. No two classes started at the same time.
1. The class on Wednesday started at:
(a) 7:05 am and topic was ratio and proportion.
(b) 7:20 am and topic was calculus.
(c) 7:00 am and topic was calculus.
(d) 7:20 am and topic was calculus.
(e) 7:05 am and topic was probability.
2. The option which gives the correct teacher- subject combination is:
(a) Mr. Chatterjee – ratio and proportion
(b) Mr. Banerjee – calculus
(c) Mr. Chatterjee – set theory
(d) Mr. Singh – calculus
(e) Mr. Singh – set theory
3. Probability was taught by:
(a) Mr. Dutta on Monday
(b) Mr. Dutta on Thursday
(c) Mr. Singh on Wednesday
(d) Mr. Singh on Monday
(e) None of these
4. The option which gives a possible correct class time – week day combination is:
(a) Wednesday – 7:10 am, Thursday – 7:20 am, Friday – 7:05 am
(b) Wednesday – 7:20 am, Thursday – 7:15 am, Friday – 7:20 am
(c) Wednesday – 7:05 am, Thursday – 7:20 am, Friday – 7:10 am
(d) Wednesday – 7:10 am, Thursday – 7:15 am, Friday – 7:05 am
(e) Wednesday – 7:20 am, Thursday – 7:05 am, Friday – 7:10 am
