Given,

Circumference of the circle = 2πr
= 2 × π × 9
= 18 π

Given:

A person makes a profit = 20%

Formula:

Profit% = 

Let the person bought an article for Rs. 100.

And since he gains 20% he sold it for Rs. 120

Now let's move to the second part of the question,

He purchased the article at 20% less

New Cost Price = 

New Cost Price = Rs. 80

New Selling price = 

New Selling price = Rs. 132

New profit percent = 

= 65%

∴ The new profit percent is 65.

Given,

The median of observations

When two more observations are taken, observation of value is added to one side of the median as , while observation with value is added to the other side of the median as

The median will remain the same.

 The median of observations will .

As we know,

Single equivalent discount of two given discounts = 

Let be 10% and be 30%

Therefore,

Required Discount =

= 40 - 3

= 37%

Given,

and

Here, and

The logic follows here is:

The 1st and last letters are the same.

The 2nd and 3rd letters are interchanged.

The 4th and 5th letters are interchanged.

Similarly,

So, the correct answer is "JNXGEF".

The triangle and arrow symbols in the given figures are rotating clock – wise. The image in the centre keeps changing between circle and square simultaneously in the given images.

When the transparent figure (X) with a design and a dotted line is to be folded along the dotted line the figure will appear as the figure (B). 

Given,

1, 5, 5, 9, 7, 11, 11, 15, 12, 17

The pattern followed here is, +4, ×1, +4, -2 are being operated on each terms consecutively.

1 + 4 = 5

5 × 1 = 5

5 + 4 = 9

9 - 2 = 7

7 + 4 = 11

11 × 1 = 11

11 + 4 = 15

15 - 2 = 13

13 + 4 = 17

So, O is the correct answer.

By interchanging the signs as per the options,

(A) 6 + 11 ÷ 87 × 3 - 6 = 89

= 6 + 0.12 × 3 - 6

= 3.37 ≠ 89

(B) 6 ÷ 11 - 87 × 3 + 6 = 89

= 0.5454 - 261 + 6 

= -254.46 ≠ 89

(C) 6 × 11 + 87 ÷ 3 - 6 = 89

= 66 + 29 - 6 = 89

(D) 6 - 11 + 87 × 3 ÷ 6 = 89

= 6 - 11 + 87 × 0.5

= 43.5 + 6 - 11

= 38.5 ≠ 89

From option (A):

From option (B):

From option (C):

From option (D):

We know that the half-shaded face will be opposite to the square face.
So, option (A) and (D) are incorrect.
Now, as per the arrangement of folding of dice option (C) is also incorrect.

The given equation is:

24 C 36 D 9 A 18 B (75 D 15) C 30 = ?

Replace the alphabets with their meaningful mathematical symbols.

The new equation will be:

24 - 36 ÷ 9 + 18 × (75 ÷ 15) - 30 = ?

Solve the above equation by using the BODMAS rule.

= 24 - 36 ÷ 9 + 18 × (75 ÷ 15) - 30

= 24 - 36 ÷ 9 + 18 × 5 - 30

= 24 - 4 + 18 × 5 - 30

= 24 - 4 + 90 - 30

= 114 - 4 - 30

= 80

So, the correct answer is 80.

According to the given condition,

(1) All bells are ornaments → False (Part of bells which is rings is never ornament so given conclusion is not possible)
(2) Some ornaments are not bells → False (It is possible but not definite)
(3) No ring is bell → False (It is given that some rings are bells)
(4) All bells are not ornaments → True ((Part of bells which is rings is never ornament so some part of bells is never ornament)

The correct sentence will be: 

"Dinesh requested the lady at the counter to give him a seat beside the window."

Since, 'seat' starts with a consonant, so the use of 'a' is correct. 

'Beside' means 'at the side of'.

'Besides' mean 'in addition to something'.

Here, beside must be used as the sentence talks about the location.

The correct form of the verb 'catch', when used with either the present perfect or the past perfect tense, is 'caught' (V₃).

So, the correct sentence would be:

The news reported that the police have caught the guilty person and are interrogating him.

The given word:

Discernible: visible or noticeable

Immobile: stationary

Vagabond refers to a wanderer

Imperceptible: something so slight, gradual, or subtle which can not to be perceived easily.

Refer to: ‘Mr. Bolsonaro’s critics say that his economic and environmental policies have virtually set the stage for intensifying degradation of the Amazon’s rich biodiversity.’

Refer to: ‘…as they do during the summer months, to clear vast tracts for agricultural or industrial use. However, this annual exercise of planned deforestation appears to have crossed a tipping point this year. There has been an increase of at least 80% in the number of recorded fires compared to the same period in 2018…’

Deforestation is the main reason for the fires. But other options are not the immediate cause of the fire.

Stellar means indicating the most important performer or role.

Shocking means glaringly vivid and graphic; marked by sensationalism.

Correct Sentence: "No sooner did I open the door than the rain, heavy and stormy, rushed in making us shiver from head to foot."

• Some conjunctions such as: 'No sooner...than', 'Hardly/scarcely...when', are used in a pair.
• So, in the 2nd part of the sentence, 'than' will be used instead of 'when'.​

• Chandragupta Maurya, who founded the empire (c. 321 BCE), extended control as far northwest as Afghanistan and Baluchistan, and his grandson Asoka, arguably the most famous ruler of early India, conquered Kalinga. Hence statement 1 is correct.
• Most of the early inscriptions mention a king referred to as piyadassi, meaning “pleasant to behold” concluded by epigraphists to be Mauryan king Ashoka. Hence statement 2 is correct.
• Special officers appointed by Asoka to spread the message of dhamma were called dhamma mahamatta. So statement 3 is incorrect.
