4. 165135 is to Peace as 1215225 is to

Explanation

The pattern in the given question seems to be that the number of letters in the word "Peace" corresponds to the number of digits in the given number. In the first part, "Peace" has 5 letters and the number is 165135, which has 6 digits. Similarly, in the second part, "Love" has 4 letters and the number is 1215225, which also has 7 digits. Therefore, the correct answer is Love.

5. Mary, who is sixteen years old, is four times as old as her brother. How old will Mary be when she is twice as old as her brother?

Explanation

Let’s solve this step by step:

Mary is sixteen years old, which is four times the age of her brother. So, her brother is currently

16/4​=4

years old.

We need to find out when Mary will be twice as old as her brother. Let’s say this happens after x years. At that time, Mary will be 16 + x years old and her brother will be 4 + x years old.

Setting up the equation 16 + x = 2 * (4 + x), we can solve for x:

16+x=2∗4+2x

16+x=8+2x

16−8=2x−x

x=8

So, Mary will be twice as old as her brother in 8 years. Therefore, Mary will be

16+8=24

years old at that time.

6. Students can submit the same work in different courses as long as they ask their lecturer and it is not their own.

Explanation

The statement suggests that students can submit the same work in different courses as long as they ask their lecturer and it is not their own. However, the correct answer is False. This means that the statement is not true. It implies that students cannot submit the same work in different courses, even if they have permission from their lecturer, unless it is their own work.

7. The Vaal River is one of the major rivers in South Africa but the runoff is not constant which means that large dams have to be built _____ store water for use. 

Explanation

Large dams have to be built so as to store water for use because the runoff of the Vaal River is not constant. This means that without the construction of these dams, there would not be a reliable and consistent water supply available.

Submit
8. Find out the wrong number in the given sequence of numbers: 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12

Explanation

To find the wrong number in the sequence 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, let's analyze the pattern:

The sequence appears to be increasing, but we need to check if there's a specific rule it follows.

4: Even

6: Even

8: Even

9: Odd

10: Even

11: Odd

12: Even

The pattern involves alternating between even and odd numbers, except for the number 9, which disrupts this pattern.

However, if we consider the possibility of the sequence intending to be all even numbers, the odd numbers would be the disruptors:

4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12

9 and 11 are the odd numbers and are the wrong numbers in the context of an even number sequence.

Since the sequence seems to focus on being all even numbers, 9 is the first number that disrupts this pattern.

Answer:

9 is the wrong number in the given sequence.

Submit
9. Father: "What? You crashed the car again?"Son: "__________________________________"Father: "I'm sure it wasn't. This is the third accident you have had this year."Son: "You are very angry now, dad. We had better talk about this later on." 

Explanation

The son's response of "But it wasn't my fault. You've got to believe me" suggests that he is denying responsibility for the car crash. He is trying to convince his father that he is not to blame for the accident and wants his father to trust him. The father's previous statement about this being the third accident the son has had this year implies that the son has a history of being careless or irresponsible with the car, which may make it difficult for the father to believe him.

Submit
10. It is never acceptable to paraphrase closely.

Explanation

The correct answer is False because the statement "It is never acceptable to paraphrase closely" is not accurate. Paraphrasing closely can be acceptable in certain situations, such as when citing a source or when trying to convey the same idea in a different way. However, it is important to properly attribute the original source and avoid plagiarism.

Submit
11. The text lists all activities that are considered to be cheating.

12. A fisherman has 5 fishes (namely A, B, C,D, E) each having a different weight. A weighs twice as much as B. B weighs four and a half times as much as C. C weighs half as much as D. D weighs half as much as E.E weighs less than A but more than C. Which of the following is the lightest?

Explanation

Based on the given information, we can deduce the following weight relationships: A > E > D > C > B. Since C weighs less than D and B weighs more than C, the lightest fish among A, B, C, D, and E is C.

Submit
13. Which of the cubes is the same as the unfolded cube below? 

Explanation

The unfolded cube shown below has a specific arrangement of faces. By comparing the unfolded cube to the options A, B, C, and D, it can be determined that option A is the same as the unfolded cube. This can be seen by matching the arrangement of faces and their orientations.

Submit
14. Free notebooks were distributed equally among children of a class. The number of notebooks each child got was one-eighth of the number of children. Had the number of children been half, each child would have got 16 notebooks. Total how many notebooks were distributed ?

Explanation

If the number of children had been half, each child would have received 16 notebooks. This means that the total number of notebooks distributed would have been 16 multiplied by the number of children. Since each child received one-eighth of the number of children, the number of children can be calculated by multiplying the number of notebooks each child received by 8. So, by substituting the number of notebooks each child received (16) into the equation, we find that the number of children is 16 * 8 = 128. Therefore, the total number of notebooks distributed is 16 * 128 = 512.

Submit
15. If students want to use other students' laboratory data, they must ask them and the lecturer first.

Explanation

The statement is generally true, but it depends on the specific policies and rules set by the educational institution and the lecturer. In many educational settings, using other students' laboratory data without permission may be considered academic misconduct or a violation of ethical standards.

Submit
16.  The Student Services Office familiarises students with the student code.

17. The day before the day before yesterday is three days after Saturday. What day is it today?

Submit
18. According to the text, cheating is a more serious offence than plagiarism.

Explanation

The text does not provide any information or comparison between cheating and plagiarism, so it is not possible to determine if cheating is a more serious offense than plagiarism. Therefore, the answer is "Not given".

Submit
19. Data must fit the expected results.

Explanation

The answer "Not given" is appropriate because the statement "Data must fit the expected results" does not provide any information about whether it is true or false. The statement simply states a general expectation without indicating whether it is met or not. Therefore, the answer cannot be determined based on the given information.
