Explanation

Let's break down Zara's journey step by step:

1. She walks 4 km northwards, which means she is now 4 km away from her starting point in the northern direction.

2. Then, she turns left and goes 3 km, which means she is now moving in the western direction (since she turned left from north). So, she is now 3 km west and 4 km north of her starting point.

3. Next, she turns left again and goes 1 km, which means she is now moving in the southern direction (since she turned left from west). So, she is now 3 km west and 3 km north (since she covered 1 km of the 4 km she was north) of her starting point.

4. Finally, she turns right and walks straight, which means she is now moving in the western direction again (since she turned right from south).

Therefore, Zara is walking in the western direction.

Explanation

The sky was clear, and the sun was setting.

A compound sentence joins two independent clauses using a coordinating conjunction like "and."

Here, both "The sky was clear" and "The sun was setting" are independent clauses combined with "and."

Explanation

The Indian Council Act of 1861 established legislative councils in the Presidencies of Bombay and Madras.

These presidencies were given the power to make laws for their respective regions.

The act restored the legislative powers that had been taken away by the Charter Act of 1833.

Explanation

Number of students who like football or hockey = Number of students who like football + Number of students who like hockey - Number of students who like both

We know that the total number of students is 49, and the number of students who like football or hockey is the sum of the students who like football and the students who like hockey, minus the students who like both (to avoid double-counting).

Let's denote the number of students who like both football and hockey as x.

Then, we can set up the equation:

49 = 35 + 29 - x

Combine like terms:

49 = 64 - x

Subtract 64 from both sides:

-15 = -x

Divide by -1:

x = 15

So, the number of students who like both football and hockey is 15.

Explanation

Let's say Asad gives x sweets to Ahsan.

Then, Asad will have 20 - x sweets left.

And Ahsan will have 55 + x sweets.

We want Ahsan to have four times as many sweets as Asad, so we set up the equation:

55 + x = 4(20 - x)

Simplifying the equation, we get:

55 + x = 80 - 4x

Add 4x to both sides:

55 + 5x = 80

Subtract 55 from both sides:

5x = 25

Divide by 5:

x = 5

So Asad should give 5 sweets to Ahsan.

Then, Asad will have 20 - 5 = 15 sweets.

And Ahsan will have 55 + 5 = 60 sweets.

Indeed, Ahsan will have four times as many sweets as Asad: 60 = 4 × 15.

The correct answer is: 5

Explanation

• Tungsten is very resistant to corrosion and has the highest melting point (melting point = 3695 K) and the highest tensile strength of any element.
• Tungsten is used for making bulb filaments of incandescent lamps because it has the highest melting point and does not melt even while it is glowing for long hours.

Explanation

In May 2024, the Brazilian and Chinese governments proposed a six-point plan: Non-escalation.

Non-escalation, direct negotiation, an international peace conference accepted by both Russia and Ukraine, and discussion of all peace plans.

Humanitarian assistance, exchange of prisoners of war, no attacks on civilians.

Explanation

1. Shoaib is taller than Ahsan, but shorter than Asad.
2. Zohair is the shortest.
3. Hamza is taller than Zohair, but shorter than Ahsan.

From point 1, we know Asad is the tallest among Shoaib, Ahsan, and himself.

From point 2, we know Zohair is the shortest.

From point 3, we know Hamza is between Zohair and Ahsan in terms of height.

So, the order of height from shortest to tallest is:

Zohair, Hamza, Ahsan, Shoaib, Asad

Therefore, the tallest person is Asad.
