= x
2 5 km/hr

= 45 km/hr.

Let the speed of the train be x km/hr. Then, relative speed = (x - 5) km/hr.

x - 5 = 45 x = 50 km/hr.

8. Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let son's age be x years. Then, father's age = (3x) years.

Five years ago, father's age = (3x - 5) years and son's age = (x - 5) years.

So, 3x - 5 = 4 (x - 5) 3x - 5 = 4x - 20 x = 15.

9. Answer: Option D

Explanation:

The terms of the given series are (23 - 1), (33 - 1), (43 - 1), (53 - 1), (63 - 1), (73 - 1),.....
