Answer : 1. "12 pm"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 12 pm Explanation: let 't' be the time after which they met since L starts. Given K is 50% faster than L 50 t + 1.5*50(t-1) = 300 50 t +75 t = 300 + 75 t = 375 / 125 = 3 hrs past the time that L starts So they meet at (9 + 3)hrs = 12:00 noon.

Answer :
Explanation :

Let the ratio be 'R' Total number of students = 1050 Then, 9R + 5R = 1050 14R = 1050 => R = 75   Hence, the number of boys = 9R = 9 x 75 = 675

Answer : 3. "13 days"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 13 days Explanation: Now, Total work = LCM(16, 8) = 48 A's one day work = + 48/16 = + 3 B's one day work = - 48/8 = -6 Given A worked for 5 days to build the wall => 5 days work = 5 x 3 = + 15 2days B joined with A in working = 2(3 - 6) = - 6 Remaining Work of building wall = 48 - (15 - 6) = 39 Now this remaining work will be done by A in = 39/3 = 13 days.

Answer : 4. "along a production possibilities curve, increases in the production of one good require larger and larger sacrifices of the other good"
Explanation :

Answer: D) along a production possibilities curve, increases in the production of one good require larger and larger sacrifices of the other good Explanation: Opportunity cost is the cost of what you are giving up to do what you are currently doing. If you can either go to work or go to the beach, and you choose to work, the opportunity cost of working is the value you would have gotten had you gone to the beach.   The law of increasing opportunity costs states that as you increase production of one good, the opportunity cost to produce an additional good will increase.
