The correct answer is Parking allowed.

Key Points 

• Parking allowed:

•  Entry prohibited:

Important Points 

There are three kinds of road signs in India: 

Mandatory Signs:

• These are the road signs that need to be followed compulsorily.
• These signs are used to make sure the free movement of traffic.
• By these signs, the road users are made aware of the specific laws, such as those of speed limits and no parking zones, etc.

A Student Council is a group of elected and volunteer students who work with an adult advisor within the framework of a constitution or bylaws to provide a means for student expression and assistance in school affairs and activities, provide opportunities for student leadership experience, and promote student, faculty, and community relations. Student councils seek to achieve the following goals through projects and activities:

• Strive to promote citizenship
• Scholarship must be promoted
• Promote leadership opportunities
• Providing an opportunity for social growth
• Promote human relations
• Promote cultural values

Key Points 

Objectives of Studnet Council are:

• To develop, plan, and complete initiatives and activities that will benefit the school, students, faculty, administration, Board of Trustees, and community.
• Develop and deliver leadership and service opportunities in the local school and community.
• Elections, participation in a constitutional representative parliament, and other activities will be used to create a living workshop of democratic processes.
• Contribute to students' educational experiences by increasing their positive involvement in school, expanding their areas of responsibility, and allowing them more direct involvement in planning and implementing programmes.

Thus from the above-mentioned points, it is clear that the primary purpose of the student council is that of providing students with opportunities for social growth.

Jean Piaget, a Swiss psychologist, has made a systematic study of cognitive development in his theory that is categorized in four stages. 

According to Piaget’s Cognitive Development Theory:

• Cognitive development takes place at different rates at different stages of development.
• Cognition develops through the interaction between the child and the environment.
• Piaget’s theory focuses not only on understanding how children acquire knowledge but also on understanding the nature of the child’s intelligence.

Important Points

Piaget’s Four Stages of Cognitive Development:

Hence, from the above explanation, it can be concluded that to understand the family tree, children need to use mental reversibility skills.

Concept:

​Noise pollution:

Noise pollution is generally defined as regular exposure to elevated sound levels that may lead to adverse effects in humans or other living organisms. According to the World Health Organization, sound levels less than 70 dB are not damaging to living organisms. Exposure for more than 8 hours to constant noise beyond 85 dB may be hazardous.

Sources of Noise Pollution:

1). Agricultural machine pollution:

Tractors, thrashers, harvesters, tube wells, powered tillers, etc. have all made agriculture highly mechanical but at the same time highly noisy. Noise level 90 dB to 98 dB due to the running of farm machines have been recorded in the state of Punjab.

2). Household pollution:

The household is an industry in itself and is a source of many indoor noises such as the banging of doors, noise of playing children, crying of infants, moving of furniture, the loud conversation of the inhabitants, etc. Besides these are the entertainment equipment in the house, namely the radio, record-players, and television sets. 

3). Transport pollution:

The automobile revolution in urban centers has proved to be a big source of noise pollution. Increasing traffic has given rise to traffic jams in congested areas where the repeated hooting of horns by impatient drivers pierce the ears of all road users. Heavy trucks, buses, trains, jet-planes, motor-cycles, scooters, mopeds, jeeps noise pollution, etc. are the cause of transport pollution.

4). Defense equipment pollution:

A lot of noise pollution is added to the atmosphere by artillery, tanks, launching of rockets, explosions, exercising of military airplanes, and shooting practices. Screams of jet engines and sonic booms have a deafening impact on the ears.

5). Industrial pollution:

Progress in technology or industrialization has resulted in creating noise pollu­tion. Textile mills, printing presses, engineering establishments, and metal works, etc. contribute heavily towards noise pollution. 

6). Miscellaneous Sources:

The automobile repair shops, construction-works, blasting, bulldozing, stone crushing, etc. are other sources of noise pollution.

A = {x : x = 2ⁿ, n ≤ 6}
For (n = 1,2,3,4,5,6) {2,4,8,16,32,64}
B = {x : x = 4ⁿ, n ≤ 2}
For (n = 1,2) {4,8}
A - B = {2, 8, 32, 64}

Hence equation of tangent to the given curve at (0 , 1) is :

(y−1) = 2(x−0),i.e..y−1 = 2x 

Since y−coordinate is called ordinate. 
Therefore, ordinate is −7.

Probability that Amit will qualify the exam(E) = 0.06
Probability that Priyanka will qualify the exam(F) = 0.12
Probability that both will qualify the exam P(E⋂F) = 0.02
P(EUF) = P(E) + P(F) - P(EUF)
= 0.06 + 0.12 - 0.02   = 0.16
P(E’⋂F’) = 1 - P(EUF)
⇒ 1 - 0.16
= 0.84

 Parabola is x² – 8x + 2y + 7 = 0 
∴   (x – 4)² = – 2y – 7 + 16 
∴   (x – 4)² = – 2[y – (9/2)]
 ∴   x² = – 4ay  
 ⇒ x = x – 4, y = y – (9/2) and 2 = 4a
 i.e. a = (1/2) 
 Its focus is given by x = 0 and y = 0 i.e. x – 4 = 0   and     y – (9/3) = 0 
∴    x = 4    and y = (9/2) 
∴ focus [4, (9/2)].

L.C.M. of 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 = 120 
Pair of 2, 3 and 5 is not completed.
To make it a perfect square, the number should be multiplied by 2, 3, 5.

Required number = 120 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 3600.

Total no. of outcomes=52
No. of ace cards=4
No. of non-ace cards=48
Probability of getting a non-ace card = No. of favourable outcomes / total no. of outcomes
=48/52=12/13

Let, PQ be a chord of a circle with centre O and radius 10cm. Draw OR ⊥PQ = .

Now, OP = 10cm and OR = 5cm

In right triangle ORP, we get

OP² = PR² + OR²

PR2 = OP² - OR²

PR² = 10² - 5² = 75

Since, the perpendicular from the centre to a chord bisects the chord.

Therefore, PQ = 2 x PR

= 2 x 8.66 = 17.32 cm

In ∆ BDC and ∆ BAC
Angle BAC = BDC
(angle made on same segment BC)
Since ABC is making right angle (90)
So,
In ∆ABC
ABC +BAC+ACB=180
(angle sum property of triangle)
90+42+ACB=180
ACB=180-132
ACB=48^o

f’(x) > 0 
=> f(x) is increasing
f’’(x) < 0  => f(x) is convex

For every square matrix (A – A’) is always skew – symmetric.

√x / √(16+√x) - 4

= (√x * √(16+√x) + 4) / ( √(16+√x) - 4) * (√(16+√x) + 4)

= (√x * √(16+√x) + 4) / 16+√x - 16

= √(16+√x) + 4

now at lim x->0

= √16 + 4 = 8

Determinant of a skew symmetric even ordered matrix A is a non zero perfect square.

Area of the circle with radius r =πr²
Now, New Radius = r + 100% of r = r + r = 2r
∴ New Area = π(2r)² - 4πr²
∴ Increased Area = 4πr² -  πr² = 3πr²
And Area increased in

A = {(2,1) (1,2)}
A² =  {(2,1) (1,2)} * {(2,1) (1,2)}
A² = {(4 + 1) (2 + 2)} {(2 + 2) (1 + 4)}
A² = {5,4} {4,5}

• Number of proper subsets of a given set = 2^m - 1, where m is the number of elements.
• Here the number of elements is 3. So the number of proper subsets of A = 2³ - 1 = 7.
