Sensitivities is most similar in meaning to the word susceptibility.

Susceptibility-the state or fact of being likely or liable to be influenced or harmed by a particular thing.

The most likely purpose of writing this passage is to highlight the steps and caution to be taken about the entry of foreign media.

We can refer to passage lines- "All this explains why so many Indian newspapers, magazines and news agencies have sought protection from the courts to prevent foreign publications and news agencies from operating in the country. Their arguments are weak on two counts."

"One way to strike a balance between the two antagonistic principles would be to allow foreign media entry into the country, provided the India state treats them at par with the domestic media on all fronts."

As we can see that the order QSRP is connected.

So, the correct order is-  The next morning I found myself somewhat refreshed but very hungryI noticed I was near a large ship. It was unloading a cargo of pig iron. I went at once to the captain. I asked him to let me help unload the vessel. I wanted to earn money for food.

Intimidate refers to someone who scares someone, especially in order to make someone do what one wants.

Frighten refers to making someone very afraid and anxious.

Thus, it is clear that 'intimidate' and 'frighted' are similar words.

The correct meaning of  idiom "Once in a blue moon" is 'An incident that happens extremely rarely'.

For example: My sister lives in Alaska, so I only see her once in a blue moon.

The correct sentence is: QPRS

The grocer who was in the habit of weighing less did not listen to the protests of the customer who he had cheated with great audacity.

To derive the last sentence of the correct arrangement, it is imperative to find out the first six sentences of the correct arrangement.

From the above solutions, we have been able to derive A as the first sentence, as per the question, 2 as the second sentence, B as the third sentence, C as the fourth sentence, 5 as the fifth sentence (given in the question) and D as the sixth sentence of the correct arrangement.

At this point, we are able to derive that the first six sentences of the correct arrangement are A2BC5D. 

The only sentence that we are left with is E, which logically makes it the last sentence of the arrangement. Also, it perfectly concludes the passage.

Now, we have been able to derive that A2BC5DE forms the correct arrangement. On the basis of this, we can also state that E or option A makes the last sentence of the right arrangement.

Therefore, the correct arrangement is A2BC5DE. 

The sentence is about monitoring the situation about the allegations.

The sequence of the phrases to make a complete sentence is: we are deeply concerned (R)by the disturbing allegations (Q)and will continue to (S) closely monitor the situation (P).

The correct answer is 'Do or say something exactly right.'

• Given Idiom: Hit the nail on the head means to do or say something exactly right.
  • Example: Every word he said hit the nail on the head.
• From the given options, the second option is the most appropriate meaning of the given idiom.

Let BD be the height of the tree and C be the breaking point.

In

Also,

Height of the tree

Floor: 1, 2, 3, 4

Flat: 1, 2

Persons: U, V, W, X, Y, Z, A, B, C

1) A & Z live in an even flat but not in even floor.

2) U lives west of A.

3) Z lives between the W and X, but both are live in flat – 1. Case 1 won’t possible.

4) X lives in a flat that is just above the flat in which Y live. Case 2(a) won’t possible.

5) C doesn’t live immediate of A. And B lives on 2nd flat of 2nd floor.

Therefore, U and A are living on the first floor by the above arrangement.

He is 6 km away from the starting point.

The pattern followed is,

Thus, LWV is the correct answer.

Quantity A:

P (E) =

Let E is a probability of an event.

Total number of cards = 52

There are 26 black cards in a pack of cards and there are 4 cards in each suit but out of 4 cards, 2 cards are black in color which is already included in black cards.

Therefore, 2 red cards of number 10 is left. 

So, 26 + 2 = 28

Number of favorable outcomes = 28 

Quantity B: 7/13
∴ Quantity A = Quantity B

Let marked price of the articles A is 200x and B is 300x.

Selling price of the article A 

Selling price of the articles B 

Difference between Selling price of the article A & B = 242.25x – 144x = 1200

⇒ 98.25x = 1198.65

⇒ x = 12.2

∴ Difference between marked price of article A & B = 300 × 12.2 – 200 × 12.2 = 1220

Given:

Income = Rs. 60000

Let amount received by each sister  = p

Statement I:

Amount received by sid's brother = p + 500 

Other expenditure = 16800 

Savings

Now,

P = Rs. 4375

P Percent of money is received by each sister

Statement II:

Savings = Rs. 25200

Other expenditure Rs. 16800

60000 = 25200 + 16800 + share of three sister + share of brother

3p + share of brother = 18000

Given data is not sufficient to determine the answer.

So, this statement is redundant to find the answer.

Statement III:

Savings = Rs. 25200

Other expenditure Rs. 16800

60000 = 25200 + 16800 + share of three sister + share of brother

4p = 18000

P = Rs. 4500

Percent of money is received by each sister

Given:

Marked price of the article = Rs. y

Formula Used: SP = CP ± Profit/Loss

Marked price of the article = Rs. y

Statement I:

MRP more than CP = 80%

Discount = 2x%

Now, MRP = 180/100 × CP

⇒ CP = Rs. y 5/9 = Rs. 5y/9

So, Statement I is sufficient to answer the question.

Statement II:

Gain = 8%

Discount = 2x%

Profit = Rs. 5y

Now, Value of 8% = Rs. 5y

⇒ CP = 100% = Rs. 5y × 100/8 

⇒ CP = Rs. 125y/2

So, Statement II is sufficient to answer the question.

Statement III:

Loss = 12%

Discount = Rs. 217

No other information is given in the question.

So, Statement III is not sufficient to answer the question.

∴ The data in statement I alone or in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement III alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

Let be a sample space and be an event such that , and , and each outcome is equally likely.

Then

If and are any two events associated with a random experiment then .

A coin is tossed three times.

So, the sample for the given experiment is:

Let be the event that head and tail appears alternatively

i.e.,

As we know that, probability of an event is given by: 

By substituting and in the above equation we get

Given:

Pipe P fills the tank = 30 minutes

Pipe Q fills the tank = 36 minutes

Both pipes are opened for 10 minutes together, and then Pipe P is turned off

Calculation:

Let the total capacity of a tank = 180 units

(L.C.M of 30 and 36)

Pipe P fills the tank in 1 minute = 180/30

= 6 units

Pipe Q fills the tank in 1 minute = 180/36

= 5 units

Tank filled in 10 minutes by both the pipes together = 110 units

Remaining portion is filled by pipe Q = (180 -110) units

= 70 units

∴ Pipe Q filled 70 units in 14 minutes.

A and B together can finish a work in 15 days and ratio of efficiency of A to B is 5 : 3.
Ratio of efficiency of A to B = 5 : 3
Ratio of time taken by A to B = 3 : 5
Let time taken by A and B alone to finish the work is ‘3x’ and ‘5x’ respectively.
Now,

∴ Time taken by A alone to finish the work = 3x = 24 days

Given:

∠B = 2∠A

The sum of all the angles of the triangle is 180° 

And, Angles opposite to the equal side is equal

∠B = ∠C

The sum of all the angles of the triangle is 180° 

⇒ ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180° 

⇒ + ∠C + ∠C = 180° 

⇒ + ∠C + ∠C = 180° 

⇒ + ∠C + ∠C = 180° 

⇒  = 180° 

⇒ ∠C = 72° 

∴ The value of the ∠C is 72°

Given: cos x ⋅ cos x(π/3 + x) ⋅ cos(π/3 - x) = 1/4, x ∈ [0, 6π]
4 × [cos x ⋅ cos(π/3 + x) ⋅ cos(π/3 - x)] = 1
2 cos x [2 cos(π/3 + x) ⋅ cos(π/3 - x)] = 1
or, 2 cos x [cos(π/3 + x + π/3 - x) + cos(π/3 + x - π/3 + x)] = 1
or, 2 cos x [cos 2π/3 + cos 2x] = 1
or, 2 cos x [-1/2 + cos 2x] = 1
or, - cos x + cos 3x + cos x = 1
or, cos 3x = 1 = cos 0
or, 3x = 2nπ ± 0 where n = 0, 1, 2, 3......
or, x = 2nπ/3
x = 2π/3, 4π/3, 6π/3, 8π/3, 10π/3, 12π/3, 14π/3, 16π/3, 18π/3
Sum of all values = 2π[1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9]/3
= 2π×45/3
= 30π

According to a recent study, the UAE passport is ranked as the most affordable globally, while the Indian passport follows as the second cheapest. The study highlights the cost-effectiveness of the Indian passport in terms of acquisition and yearly expenses, but it notes the limited visa-free access compared to higher-priced passports from countries like Australia and the USA.
