Plz explain with steps..

What s de answer for this question : Three independent
mechanisms A, B and C have been incorporated for power
saving in a plant producing respectively 30%, 40% and 10%
efficiency. Assuming that they operate independently, what
is the net power efficiency achieved.

(a) 62.2% (b) 68% (c) 61% (d) 64% (e) 56% ans 61..

Answer Posted / kartik

its simple...just use the follow formula...
a+b+ab/100
here since it is saving therefore we use
-a-b+(-a)*(-b)/100
therefore for 1st 2 we get
-30-40+30*40/100=-58
then this intermediate ans wid 3rd gives..
-58-10+58*10/100=62.2

Alok and Bhanu play the following min-max game. Given the expression N = X - Y – Z where X, Y and Z are variables representing single digits (0 to 9), Alok would like to maximize N while Bhanu would like to minimize it. Towards this end, Alok chooses a single digit number and Bhanu substitutes this for a variable of her choice (X, Y or Z). Alok then chooses the next value and Bhanu, the variable to substitute the value. Finally Alok proposes the value for the remaining variable. Assuming both play to their optimal strategies, the value of N at the end of the game would be • 4 • -18 • 9 • 2
