Show Solution

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

This question can be answered by matching each two-wheeler maker to its known model line-up around the time the Victor was launched.

  1. Bajaj: Bajaj's motorcycle range in this period included the Boxer, the Caliber and the newly launched Pulsar, but no model of theirs was called Victor.
  2. Escorts: Escorts sold motorcycles through its tie-up with Yamaha under badges like the Escorts Yamaha RX, again with nothing called Victor in its line-up.
  3. TVS: TVS Motor Company launched the TVS Victor in 2001 and promoted it as India's first fully indigenous motorcycle, meaning it was conceived and engineered entirely in-house rather than based on a foreign design, and the launch was a major commercial success for the company.
  4. None of these: Since TVS is clearly the maker of the Victor, this option cannot be correct.

Matching the model name to the company's own product history points squarely at TVS as the maker of the Victor.

Let's summarize:

  • The TVS Victor, launched in 2001, was billed as India's first fully indigenous motorcycle.
  • Bajaj and Escorts had different model line-ups in this period with no bike called Victor.

So the correct answer is TVS, option (3).

Read the scenario and answer the question:
The upper hinge of a dataset is the median of all the values to the right of the median of the dataset in an ascending arrangement, while the lower hinge of the dataset is the median of all the values to the left of the median of the dataset in the same arrangement.
For example, consider the dataset 4, 3, 2, 6, 4, 2, 7. When arranged in the ascending order, it becomes 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 6, 7. The median is 4 (the bold value), and hence the upper hinge is the median of 4, 6, 7, i.e., 6. Similarly, the lower hinge is 2. 
A student has surveyed thirteen of her teachers, and recorded their work experience (in integer years). Two of the values recorded by the student got smudged, and she cannot recall those values. All she remembers is that those two values were unequal, so let us write them as A and B, where A < B. The remaining eleven values, as recorded, are: 5, 6, 7, 8, 12, 16, 19, 21, 21, 27, 29. Moreover, the student also remembers the following summary measures, calculated based on all the thirteen values: 
Minimum: 2
Lower Hinge: 6.5 
Median: 12 
Upper Hinge: 21 
Maximum: 29

Read the following scenario and answer the questions that follow.
A T20 cricket match consists of two teams playing twenty overs each, numbered 1 to 20. The runs scored in any over is a non-negative integer. The run rate at the end of any over is the average runs scored up to and including that over, i.e., the run rate at the end of the kth over is the average number of runs scored in overs numbered \(1, 2, …, k,\) where \(1 \leq k \leq 20, k\) a positive integer.
The following table indicates the run rate of a team at the end of some of the overs during a T20 cricket match (correct up to 2 decimal places), where \(1 \leq N – 2 < N + 6 \leq 20\), N a positive integer. It is also known that the team did not score less than 6 runs and more than 15 runs in any over.
