Utility, in ordinary sense, means usefulness. But, in economics, it means want-satisfying power of a commodity or service — the power to satisfy a human want. Utility is addable. One can add utility obtained from each unit of a commodity to get total utility obtained from the entire stock. In other words, by adding marginal utility from successive units, we obtain total utility of the stock.

Important Points

The average weight of A, B, C and D = 68 kg
The average weight of A, B, C, D and E = 70 kg
So the answer = 70 × 5 – 68 × 4 = 78 kg
Hence, Option A is correct.

A.P. given in the question is 10, 7, 4, …
a = 10
d = a(2) – a(1) = 7 − 10 = −3
a(n) = a + (n−1) x d
a(30) = 10 + (30−1) x (−3)
a(30) = 10 + (29) x (−3)
a(30) = 10 − 87 = −77

Let AB be the wall and BC be the ladder.

Then, ACB = 60º and AC = 4.6 m.

⇒ BC = 2 x AC
= (2 x 4.6) m
= 9.2 m.

Let AB be the observation tower and h be its height.

Also, let the ship be at C when the angle of elevation is 30° and at D when the angle of elevation is 45°.

The time taken by the ship to travel from C to D is 10 minutes and we need to find out the time the ship will take to reach B from D.

∴ tan 30º = AB/CB = h / CB = 1/ √3

⇒ CB = √3 x h

∴ tan 45º = AB / DB = h / DB = 1

⇒ DB = h

⇒ CD = CB – DB = (√3h – h) = h(√3– 1)

Now, as h(√3 – 1) distance is covered in 10 minutes, a distance of h is covered in = 13.66 minutes = 13 minutes 40 seconds

12 + 19 + 23 + 7 + x + 9 + 26 + 13 = 16 × 8
109 + x = 128
x = 128 – 109 = 19
Hence, Option D is correct.

The total surface area of a cylinder = 2πrh + 2πr² = 2πr(h + r)

Hence, Option D is correct.

Hence, Option C is correct.

Using Rule 1 :
1st number × 2nd number = L.C. M. × H.C.F,
We have,
First number × second number = LCM × HCF

 

Sum of 100 numbers =100×210=21000
Sum of 120 numbers =120×200=24000
Sum of 20 numbers =24000−21000=3000
∴ Average of 20 new numbers =3000/20=150

Hence, Option D is correct.

Last 20 number = 12th to 31st
So remaining is 11th number.
So the answer = 31 × 57 – 10 × 50 – 20 × 61 = 47
Hence, Option D is correct.

- Volume Formula: Volume = Length × Breadth × Height
- Given Dimensions:
- Length = 8 cm
- Breadth = 6 cm
- Height = 3.5 cm
- Substituting the given values:
- 8 × 6 × 3.5
- 48 × 3.5 = 168
- Result: The volume of the cuboid is 168 cm³.
