Answer : 4. "253"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 253 Explanation: The first person shakes hands with 22 different people, the second person also shakes hands with 22 different people, but one of those handshakes was counted in the 22 for the first person, so the second person actually shakes hands with 21 new people. The third person, 20 people, and so on... So, 22 + 21 + 20 + 19 + 18 + 17 + 16 + 15 + 14 + 13 + 12 + 11 + 10 + 9 + 8 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1= n(n+1)/2 = 22 x 23 /2 = 11 x 23 = 253.

Answer : 4. "They have thick walls and transport blood away from the heart"
Explanation :
Answer: D) They have thick walls and transport blood away from the heart Explanation: Because arteries have to have thick walls for use of protection. Its when you get to veins where the walls get thinner. And the use of the heart is to pump blood to all of the cells and organs in the body so it would be to transport blood away from the heart. i.e. Arteries = Away from the Heart Veins = Back to the Heart.

Answer : 4. "Data is not sufficient"
Explanation :
Answer: D) Data is not sufficient Explanation: Let the sum be Rs. p, rate be R% p.a. and time be T years. Then, P×T×(R+2)100-P×T×R100=108 ⇒2PT= 10800 ...... (1) And, P×R×(T+2)100-P×R×T100=180 ⇒2PR = 18000 ......(2) Clearly, from (1) and (2), we cannot find the value of pSo, the data is not sufficient.
