passed in science. Find how many students passed in mathematics?

The population of a town is 10000. Out of these 5400 persons read

newspaper A and 4700 read newspaper B. 1500 persons read both the
newspapers. Find the number of persons who do not read either   of the two
papers.

A manufacturer produces 80 units of a product at a cost of 22000 and 125

units at a cost of 28750. Assuming the cost curve to be linear, find the
equation of the cost curve and then use it to estimate the cost of 95 units.  

The length of a train is 300 meter and length of the platform is 500 meter.
If the speed of the train is 20 m/sec, find the time taken by the train to
cross the platform.

It takes 20 seconds for a train running at 54 kmph to cross a platform.And

it takes 12 seconds for the same train in the same speed to cross a man
walking at the rate of 6 kmph in the same direction in which the train is
running. What is the length of the train and length of platform (in meters).

Two trains running at 60 kmph and 48 kmph cross each other in 15 seconds
when they run in opposite direction. When they run in the same direction, a
person in the faster train observes that he crossed the slower train in 36
seconds. Find the length of the two trains (in meters).
