Given that:
Fail percentage of school P is 60%. Then, pass percentage of school P is 40%.

Formula Used:
Percentage = (Actual/Total) × 100

Calculation:
From the given graph,
Students who passed in school P = 80
⇒ 40% = 80
⇒ 1% = 2
⇒ 60% = 60 × 2 = 120 {Failed students of school P)
Now, the number of students passed from school T = 90
Then, the required percentage = (120/90) × 100 = (4/3) × 100
⇒ 133.33%
∴ The required percentage is 133.33%

Given Details

Twelve friends—Jishnu, Jay, Hari, Balu, Abhi, Keshav, Ambani, Sanju, Daya, Sreerag, Rohan, and Raghu.
Four different villas; Villa A, Villa B, Villa C, Villa D
Each villa has at least two people and at most four people staying.
Villa C has the least number of people staying in it.
Villa B and Villa D have three people staying in each villa.
Here we get Villa C has two people Staying (Two is the least) and Villa B and Villa D have three people staying in each Villa. So the remaining four people will stay in Villa A.

Keshav and Ambani stay together.
Keshav stays in the villa with the least number of people.
Here we get Keshav and Ambani staying together in Villa C

Balu is staying in Villa A. Sanju stays with three other people. Jay stays in a Villa having even number of people. Here Sanju stays with three other people so he stays in Villa A and Jay stays in Villa A, which has an even number of people staying in it.

Sreerag and Abhi stay in the same Villa but not in Villa D. Jishnu stays with 2 other people. Here we get Sreerag and Abhi staying in Villa B. For Jishnu there are 2 cases

Case 1: Jishnu stays in Villa B.

Case 2: Jishnu stays in Villa D.

Rohan and Raghu stay together but not in the Villa B.
Neither Daya nor Hari does not stays in Villa B.
Daya stays with 2 other people only.
Here we get the final case as Hari stays in Villa A and Daya in Villa D

Hence if we interchange Balu and Daya then Daya stays with Sanju.

The correct answer is "boasts the largest."

Key Points

• Let us understand the meaning of the given words:
  • "Boats" is the plural form of boat which means a small vehicle used to travel across water.
    • Example: The lure of a better life abroad was tempting thousands of people into rickety boats.
  • "Behests" means a person's orders or command.
    • Example: The budget proposal was adopted at the mayor's behest.
  • "Boasts" is (used about a place) to have something that it can be proud of.
    • Example: The city boasts over a dozen restaurants.
  • "Bequeaths" means to arrange for something to be given to somebody after you have died.
    • Example: He bequeaths one lakh rupees to charity.
• In the given sentence, "Tamil Nadu" is said to be self praising the population of vultures in the state.
• Thus, from the above explanation, it is clear that the word "boasts" will be appropriate for the blank, according to its meaning.

Hence, the correct answer is option 3.

The correct answer is C-F.

Key Points

• Part C states 'The tablets brought temporary' and part F states 'respite from the excruciating pain'.
• In part F, the word respite means an interval of rest or relief​ and excruciating means causing great pain or anguish.
• Here, it's said that the tablets gave them temporary relief from the intense pain.
• There is only one correct combination in the given options i.e. C-F is the correct combination.

The correct sentence is, C-F: The tablets brought temporary respite from the excruciating pain.

Additional Information

Let us see the meaning of the words:

Given :

50% of the total work by A + B in = 6 days

Efficiency of B = 50% more than A

Efficiency of C = 25% more than A

Calculation :

Time taken by (A + B) to complete the 100% of the work = 6/0.50 = 12 days

Efficiency ratio of A : B : C = 100 : 150 : 125 = 4 : 6 : 5

Total work = (4 + 6) × 12 = 120 units

Time taken by (B + C) to complete the 75% of the work = (120 × 0.75)/(6 + 5) = 90/11 days

Hence, the correct answer is 90/11 days.

⇒ (A/2 + B) / B = 5 / 4

⇒A + 2B / 2B = 5 / 4

⇒4A + 8B = 10B

⇒4A = 2B

⇒A : B = 1 : 2

Average age of A,B and C is 40 years

Then sum of age of A, B and C is 120 years

After 15 years C age is 25% more than his present age

⇒25 % = 1 / 4

Present age : after 15 years is = 4 : 5

Then the present age of C is 4 × 15 = 60 years

⇒( A + B + 60 ) = 120

⇒( A + B ) = 60 years

Ratio ages of A and B is 1 : 2

⇒3 unit = 60

⇒1 unit = 20

Then, age of B is 2 × 20 = 40 years

Hence 40 is the correct answer.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statements is as follows -

Conclusions:

1). Some Investors are not Entrepreneurs. → False (There is no negative relation given between Investors and Entrepreneurs. It is possible that All Investors are Entrepreneurs. So it is not definite that Some Investors are not Entrepreneurs. Hence, it doesn't follow.)

2). Some Startups are not Innovations. → False (There is no negative relation given between Startups and Innovations. It is possible that All Startups are Innovations. So it is not definite that Some Startups are not Innovations. Hence, it doesn't follow.)

3). Some Investors are not Startups. → True (It is given that No Startup is Entrepreneur and Some Entrepreneurs are Investors. So the part of Investors which is Entrepreneurs can never be Startups. Hence, it follows.)

4). Some Entrepreneurs are Innovations. → False (It is given that All Innovations are Startups and No Startup is Entrepreneur. So it is definite that No Entrepreneur is Innovation. Hence, it doesn't follow.)

5). Some Startups are Investors. → False (There is no direct relation given between Startups and Investors. So it is not definite that Some Startups are Investors. Hence, it doesn't follow.)

Hence, the correct answer is Some Investors are not Startups.

The correct answer is Records, fields.

Key Points

• In the Relational database model, a table is a collection of data elements organized in terms of rows and columns. A table is also considered a convenient representation of relations. But a table can have a duplicate row of data while a true relation cannot have duplicate data.
• Fields and records are two basic components of a database, which is an organized collection of information, or data. The term "fields" refers to columns or vertical categories of data; the term "records" refers to rows or horizontal groupings of unique field data. Examples of both database components are seen in older, printed databases and also in modern, computer-based databases.
• A single entry in a table is called a Tuple or Record or Row. A tuple in a table represents a set of related data.
• A table consists of several records(row), each record can be broken down into several smaller parts of data known as Attributes.

The correct answer is option 2

Storage Classes are used to describe the features of a variable/function. These features basically include the scope, visibility and lifetime which help us to trace the existence of a particular variable during the runtime of a program.

C language uses 4 storage classes: auto, extern, static and register

auto:

This is the default storage class for all the variables declared inside a function or a block. Hence, the keyword auto is rarely used while writing programs in C language. Auto variables can be only accessed within the block/function they have been declared and not outside them. They are assigned garbage value by default whenever they are declared.

Important Points:

Aggregate functions are functions that take a collection (a set or multiset) of values as input and return a single value.

The input to sum and avg must be a collection of numbers, but the other operators can operate on collections of non-numeric data types, such as strings.

A trigger is a stored procedure in database which automatically invokes whenever a special event in the database occurs.

Example: A trigger can be invoked when a row is inserted into a specified table.

Syntax:

create trigger [trigger_name] [before | after] {insert | update | delete}

on [table_name] [for each row] [trigger_body]

Definition of two-dimensional array

float ary[x][9];

Number of rows: x

Number of columns: 9

9x = 117

Circular linked list:
In singly linked lists and doubly linked lists, the end of lists is indicated with a NULL value. But circular linked lists do not have ends. In circular linked lists, each node has a successor, and the last node points to the first node instead of NULL.

Example

Let x be a variable pointer and head.

Head is the pointer of the circular linked list.

Now to insert a new record (node) y, we have to loop through the linked list from the head to the last node like this pseudocode below.

x=head

while(x->next!=head)

{

x=x->next;

}

After finishing the loop x is now the last node and we will append the list. y is the next node of x Then the next of y will have to point to the head since the linked list is circular.

In the dependency preservation, at least one decomposed table must satisfy every dependency.

If a relation R is decomposed into relation R1 and R2, then the dependencies of R either must be a part of R1 or R2 or must be derivable from the combination of functional dependencies of R1 and R2.

If the relation R (A, B, C, D) with functional dependency set (A->BC) is decomposed into R1(ABC) and R2(AD), it is dependency preserving because FD A->BC is a part of relation R1(ABC).

π customer_name (σ balance > 1000 (Deposit)) will be the correct answer

Important Points

Project Operation (π)

It projects column(s) that satisfy a given predicate.

Notation − πA1, A2, An (r)

Where A1, A2 , An are attribute names of relation r.

Duplicate rows are automatically eliminated, as the relation is a set.

It selects tuples that satisfy the given predicate from a relation
