Verbal Reasoning QUESTION #8172

Using the table below, compare the dollar values of the two foreign currencies:

Country	Value of 1 US Dollar
Argentina	0.93 peso
Kenya	32.08 shillings

Quantity A: The dollar value of 1 Argentine peso

Quantity B: The dollar value of 1 Kenyan shilling

Quantity A is greater✔️
Quantity B is greater
The two quantities are equal
The relationship cannot be determined from the information given

Correct Answer Logic:

If $1$ USD $= 0.93$ peso, then $1$ peso $= \dfrac{1}{0.93} \approx 1.075$ USD.

If $1$ USD $= 32.08$ shillings, then $1$ shilling $= \dfrac{1}{32.08} \approx 0.031$ USD.

Quantity A $\approx 1.075$ USD > Quantity B $\approx 0.031$ USD.

Quantity A is greater.

Statistics QUESTION #1984

Question 9346

If a population has mean $\mu$ and variance $\sigma^2$, the variance of the sample mean $\bar{X}$ for samples of size $n$ drawn WITHOUT replacement from a finite population of size $N$ is:

$\dfrac{\sigma^2}{n}$
$\dfrac{\sigma^2}{n} \cdot \dfrac{N-n}{N-1}$✔️
$\dfrac{\sigma^2}{n} \cdot \dfrac{N-n}{N}$
$\dfrac{\sigma^2}{N}$

Correct Answer Logic:

For sampling without replacement from a finite population, $Var(\bar{X}) = \dfrac{\sigma^2}{n} \cdot \dfrac{N-n}{N-1}$, where $\dfrac{N-n}{N-1}$ is the finite population correction (fpc) factor. It reduces variance compared to sampling with replacement.

$\sqrt{40}$
$12$✔️
$\sqrt{144}$
$72$

Electronics Engineering QUESTION #11714

Question 9349

A directional coupler has a coupling factor of $-20\,\text{dB}$ and directivity of $30\,\text{dB}$. The isolation between the input and isolated port is:

$10\,\text{dB}$
$30\,\text{dB}$
$50\,\text{dB}$✔️
$20\,\text{dB}$

Correct Answer Logic:

Isolation = Coupling + Directivity $= 20\,\text{dB} + 30\,\text{dB} = \mathbf{50\,\text{dB}}$. Coupling factor is the power tapped to the coupled port; directivity is the ability to discriminate between forward and reverse waves at the coupled port; isolation is the total suppression of backward signal at the isolated port.

Civil / Architecture QUESTION #2357

Question 9350

In the design of a waffle slab, the minimum rib width and depth requirements per ACI 318 specify that the rib width shall not be less than:

100 mm with rib depth not more than 3.5 times rib width
75 mm with rib depth not more than 3.5 times rib width✔️
100 mm with rib depth not more than 4 times rib width
75 mm with rib depth not more than 4.5 times rib width

Correct Answer Logic:

Per ACI 318 Section 9.8.1, for joist (ribbed) and waffle slab systems, ribs shall not be less than 100 mm wide, and the overall depth of ribs shall not exceed 3.5 times the minimum rib width. Therefore rib width ≥ 100 mm and depth ≤ 3.5 × 100 mm = 350 mm. The clear spacing between ribs shall not exceed 750 mm. These dimensional limits ensure proper concrete placement, adequate cover, and structural integrity of the one-way or two-way ribbed slab system.

Question 9351

Which principle guides the allocation of infrastructure costs in new development?

Historic cost recovery
Growth pays for growth✔️
Equal distribution
Government subsidy priority

Correct Answer Logic:

Question 9354

A 'Joint Tenancy' is distinguished from a 'Tenancy in Common' primarily by:

The number of owners.
The right of survivorship.✔️
The type of property involved.

Correct Answer Logic:

In a joint tenancy, when one owner dies, their interest automatically passes to the surviving joint tenants (right of survivorship). In a tenancy in common, the interest passes to the deceased's heirs.

Sociology QUESTION #1666

Question 9355

Robert K. Merton's enduring contribution to structural-functional theory involved distinguishing between the intended, recognized consequences of social institutions and those unintended, unrecognized consequences that may nonetheless serve important social functions. This distinction is captured in his concept of:

Social facts
Manifest and latent functions✔️
Rationalization
Social stratification

Correct Answer Logic:

Merton's distinction between manifest functions (intended, recognized consequences) and latent functions (unintended, unrecognized consequences) refined Parsonian functionalism by acknowledging that social institutions serve multiple purposes, some hidden from participants. He also introduced the concept of dysfunctions to account for negative consequences.

Verbal Reasoning QUESTION #8077

Question 9359

$\triangle RST$ is isosceles and $\angle RST = 40°$.

Compare:

Column A: The sum of the measures of the two angles of $\triangle RST$ that have equal measure

Column B: $120°$

Column A is greater
Column B is greater
The two quantities are equal
The relationship cannot be determined✔️

Correct Answer Logic:

In an isosceles triangle, two angles are equal. The sum of all angles in a triangle is $180°$.

Case 1: If $\angle RST = 40°$ is one of the two equal angles, then the two equal angles sum to $2 \times 40° = 80°$, and the third angle is $180° - 80° = 100°$.

Case 2: If $\angle RST = 40°$ is the unique angle (not one of the equal pair), then the two equal angles each measure $\frac{180° - 40°}{2} = 70°$, and their sum is $2 \times 70° = 140°$.

In Case 1, Column A = $80° < 120°$, so Column B is greater.

In Case 2, Column A = $140° > 120°$, so Column A is greater.

Since both cases are possible, the relationship cannot be determined.
