1Agree with Nishant
but I think I have found out the minimum value of the expression (if xi's and yi's are +ve)
so keeping this question alive and a bit of modification from my side find the minimum value with all quantities given positive.
though may be easy....but not getting[2]
if x_{1}^{2}+x_{2}^{2}+x_{3}^{2}........x_{20}^{2}=400
y_{1}^{2}+y_{2}^{2}+y_{3}^{2}........y_{20}^{2}=900
find
\frac{x_{1}}{y_{1}}+\frac{x_{2}}{y_{2}}+\frac{x_{3}}{y_{3}}+...........\frac{x_{20}}{y_{20}}

1well as for the sorce of the q......this is from mathematics today....tagged under a column challenging.....so possibility is that this q is correct......however since bhaiya is saying this q is wrong ...so i cannot surely say that this q is correct.....

1Lets take i = 1 ,2 ,3, 4,..
and make x1 / y1 = ... = xi / yi
there is a rule in proportions that ,
i a / b = c / d = e / f = ... = x / y = √a2 + c2 + e2 .......√b2 + d2 + f2 + ......
applying that here , x1 / y1 = ... ...... = xi / yi = √x12 + x2 2 + .... / √y12 + ....
= 20 / 30
= 2 / 3
so x1 / y1 + x2 / y2 + ... = 20 x 2 / 3 = 40 / 3
62how did you get to know so much history about me!
when did i say any of this on tiit? [7]
1Nice work Soumya
I was knowing about RMO thing but knew your rank today itself :P. Anyways belated congrats :D
1but dats the same ans dat i gave....
though with another concept.... [7]
13@dukhi... Waise, u don't necessarily need a reason to Smile [1]..
Bhaiyaa even i was thinking tht the no. might not be defined at all...

62wow .. this person seems to be someone heard of... :D [1]
and now i seem to know the source of this info too.. [3]
btw I never sat for the interview so din have the "final call" for bangalore...
And btw that is the list of all the things i seem to have done :P :D
1lolzz sir u are gr8
u even had sumthing to do with ISI(nt the terrorist one) na???
62btw.. did i forget to say that you are are targetiitian and me too
[4]
1ok finally u all think this q is wrong haan........
btw good research haan dukhiatma and arshad......i din knew that[3]
1something is still missing in this research ..... actuarial analysis !!
1m not getting even nearer to d answers.......plz help ne1
1nopes dude [2]
i actually dont know the ans....but that ans of urs is not in teh options
1well knowing teh options wont in any way help u in this q
anyways options r
2/3
3/4
4/9
3/2
1if we consider x1=x2=...=x20=x
and y1=y2=y3......=y20=y
as it is nowhere given in question dat they cant be equal...
so we get x/y=2/3
so 20x/y=40/3
1araay but how u took them as equal.....x1,x2,x3.......they r all different....anyways even with wat u done....ans isnt matching [4]
