Answer: (C) 1.2 km
Answer: (C) 1.2 km
Answer: (C) 1.2 km
A starts journey before B at a speed of 1 m/s. Hence A will be ahead of B
(10*60)s * 1m/s = 600m
Let A covers a distance of X after starting of B,
Then X + 600m = 2X
=> 2X - X = 600m
=> X = 600m
Hence B will cover a distance of 2X = 2 * 600m = 1200m = 1.2 km

Net change (-40 + 20 + )%
= (-20 + )%
= (-20 - 8)%
= -28%
= 28%
Net change (-40 + 20 + )% = (-20 + )% = (-20 - 8)% = -28% = 28%
Net change (-40 + 20 + )% = (-20 + )% = (-20 - 8)% = -28% = 28%

(D) 45 years
Answer: (D) 45 years
Answer: (D) 45 years
Answer: (D) 45 years
The son becomes 15 years old after 3 years.
Hence son's present age = 15 years - 3 years = 12 years
Man is four times as old as his son.
Hence Man's present age = 12 years * 4 = 48 years
Man is 3 years older than his wife.
Hence present age of his wife = 48 years - 3 years = 45 years.
The son becomes 15 years old after 3 years. Hence son's present age = 15 years - 3 years = 12 years Man is four times as old as his son. Hence Man's present age = 12 years * 4 = 48 years Man is 3 years older than his wife. Hence present age of his wife = 48 years - 3 years = 45 years.
The son becomes 15 years old after 3 years. Hence son's present age = 15 years - 3 years = 12 years Man is four times as old as his son. Hence Man's present age = 12 years * 4 = 48 years Man is 3 years older than his wife. Hence present age of his wife = 48 years - 3 years = 45 years.
