Let age of retirement = S
so according to the given condition 25000(x-20)
=10000 x 3 + 12000 + 14000 + 16000 + 18000 + 20000 + 22000 + 24000 + 26000 + 28000 + 30000 + 30000(S-33)
= 30000 + 210000 + 30000S-990000
= 30000S - 750000
or 25000S - 500000 = 30000x - 750000
or 5000x = 250000
or S = 50 yrs.

Given Series is 5, 14, 42, 107, 233, _?

5, 14, 42, 107, 233, _?

Differences is 9, 28, 65, 126

9 = 2^3 + 1

28 = 3^3 + 1

65 = 4^3 + 1

126 = 5^3 + 1

Now, next difference must be 6^3 + 1 = 217

Hence, next number in the given series = 233 + 217 = 450.

Number of words with 5 letters from given 9 alphabets formed = 95

Number of words with 5 letters from given 9 alphabets formed such that no letter is repeated is = 9P5

Number of words can be formed which have at least one letter repeated =  95 - 9P5

= 59049 - 15120

= 43929

Let his present earnings be Rs. p

ATQ,

(125/100) x (96/100) x (125/100) x (96/100) x (125/100) x p = 72000

p = Rs. 40,000.

Viruses are responsible for some of the most dangerous and deadly diseases including influenza, ebola, rabies and smallpox.

Despite their potential to kill, these potent pathogens are in fact considered to be non-living.

Reasons:

1. Viruses don't have any cells, like living organisms do. They have protein coats but no organelles or other cellular machinery. Just a little DNA packet.

2. Viruses can't produce new proteins, DNA, or RNA and therefore are unable to reproduce on their own. They need infected cells' machinery to make all of these and produce new virons.

3. Viruses have no metabolic activity. They don't use or convert energy and have no ongoing interior processes. They're basically just inert structures until they impact a potential host cell.

A place where honey bees are kept in called an Apiary or a bee yard.

1 boy's 1 day work = 1/70

1 girl's 1 day work = 1/140

(5 boys + 10 girls)'s 1 day work = (5/70 + 10/140) = (1/14 + 1/14) = 1/7

5 boys and 10 girls will complete the work in 7 days.
