Rahul, a young householder, used to study the scriptures every day under a guru. One day the guru was explaining
the following passage from the Upanishads- “No husband is loved by his wife for his own sake but it is all for the
sake of the Self…No sons are loved by their father for their sake but it is all for the sake of the Self that the sons
become dear to him”. At that stage, Rahul intervened and said, “Sir, in my case, both my parents and my wife love
me so dearly for my own sake that if I am delayed by a few minutes in reaching home they get highly agitated and if
something happens to me they will die. The Guruji said, "You shall learn the truth of it tomorrow when you see the
result of a test I am going to hold. Before going to bed tonight you must swallow this herbal powder. As a result, you
will lie as if dead tomorrow morning but you will be able to hear all that is spoken in your presence. After a few
hours when the effect of this medicine wears off, you will become normal and get up, you will see the fun." Rahul
did as instructed and in the morning his wife and parents found him ‘dead’ –lying motionless without any pulse or
heartbeat. The guruji was apprised of the situation and he came over. They pleaded him to bring Rahul back to life by
using his divine powers. The guruji asked for a jar full of water and said, “I shall draw out all the bad destiny
responsible for your son’s death into this water. One of you will have to drink this water. The one who drinks will die
immediately while Rahul will be restored to life. Tell me who among you is prepared to die for him?” Both the
 www.gradeup.co

parents refused to have it saying, “We are old and helping each other mutually. If one dies, the other will not have
anybody to help. So our drinking the water is out of the question”. Rahul’s young wife also said, “I am very young
and have not seen anything of this world yet. When such old people, who have seen life in its fullness, do not want to
die, how can you expect me to volunteer for death?” A bright idea flashed into the mind of the father who told the
guruji, “Sir, you have no relatives to mourn your death. Why don’t you drink water yourself? We will conduct your
funeral in a grand manner.” The guru wanted a jar of water to

full or water to life

Order – Order of an ordinary differential equation is defined to be the order of the highest order derivative occurring
in the equation.

Hence its order is 2.

Degree – The degree of an ordinary D.E. is defined to be the exponent of the highest order derivative occurring in the
equation provided the equation is made free from radical signs and fractional powers as far as the derivatives
concerned

Since the given D.E. can not be written as a polynomial in all the Differential coefficients, the degree of the equation
is not defined.

So triangle cant be formed by these sides
Option 2. → 11 + 3 = 14 >12
11 -3 = 8 <12

So, the selling price = Rs. 12 × (105/100) = Rs. 12.6

He decides to mark the price as 12 apples for Rs. 168 and sells.
So, the marked price of 1 apple = Rs. 168/12 = Rs. 14
Then, the discount = Rs. 14 – 12.6 = Rs. 1.4
∴The required discount percentage = [(1.4/14) × 100]% = 10%.
