Answer : 1. "6CO2 + 6H2O -----> C6H12O6 + 6O2"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 6CO2 + 6H2O -----> C6H12O6 + 6O2 Explanation: Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms activities. Photosynthesis can be represented using a chemical equation. The overall balanced equation is 6CO2 + 6H2O →Sunlight C6H12O6 + 6O2Source of Carbon & Oxygen + Source of Electrons & Hydrogen + Energy that drives Photosynthesis ----> Sugar + Gas produced by splitting water. Where CO2 = carbon dioxide H2O = waterC6H12O6 = glucose O2 = oxygen.

Answer : 1. "23"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 23 Explanation: Total number of female members = 115 Let the number of males = x Number of females = y => x + y = 115 ......(1) According to the given data, x + y(0.50) = 69 ......(2) From (1) & (2), we get 0.5y = 46 => y = 46 x 2 = 92 => x = 115 - 92 = 23 Hence, required number of gentlemen in the family = x = 23.
Q: An intelligent boy is doing a jigsaw with 275 pieces. Each day that he fits pieces together there are fewer pieces left, and it is reasonable to assume that he fits more pieces each day because the number left to sort out diminishes progressively. Hence he is able to fit an extra piece as each day goes by. On the first day he fits 20 pieces. How many days does it take for him to complete the puzzle ? 2192 05b5cc71ee4d2b4197774f59a

Answer : 1. "11 days"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 11 days Explanation: Let 'n' number of days it take to complete. we know that sum of n number= n/2[2a+(n-1)d]where a=20,d=1;n/2[2x20+(n-1)1]=275n[n+39]=550n2 + 39n - 550 = 0 n2+ 50n - 11n - 550 = 0(n-11) (n-50) = 0n-11 = 0;n = 11(Days).
