We know that some children are born deaf and dumb. But I have not seen any animal which does not hear or does not make sound, be it puppy, kitten. So I wonder that if the animals have some biological characteristics so that they are born with the gift of hearing and producing sound in their own way

Mary has a small pile of 14 cards, which contains 13 black cards and one red card. She deals the cards in the following way. First, she takes the card on top of the pack and places it on a table. The next card (the one on top of the remaining 13 cards) is then moved to the bottom of the pack. She repeats this process, placing a card on the table and then moving the next card to the bottom of the pack, until all of the 14 cards have been placed on the table. If the 12th card placed on the table is the red card, what was the position of the red card in the original pack?

Give your answer as a number between 1 and 14 (inclusive), where 1 means the top card, 2 the card second from the top, 3 the card third from the top and so on.

A conference centre contains five identical rooms. All of the rooms have square floors. Recently, the floors of the rooms have been painted, and a different pattern has been used for each room. Each room has a certain number of red circles painted on a white background in the patterns that you can see by clicking here.


Room 1 has 9 red circles of equal area painted on a white background
Room 2 has 16 red circles of equal area painted on a white background;
Room 3 has 25 red circles of equal area painted on a white background;
Room 4 has 36 red circles of equal area painted on a white background;
Room 5 has 49 red circles of equal area painted on a white background;

Which room has the largest red-painted area on its floor? If one room has a greater red-painted area than the rest, give the number of that room (between 1 and 5 inclusive) as your answer. If all of the rooms have the same red-painted area, give 0 as your answer.

(You can ignore the black borders in the picture when figuring out the areas.)

I don't know what story this idea comes from - when I was a kid we somehow had the idea that cut up tiger hairs were sharp like glass and could be used for assassinations! Ring any bells?

it's said that the average pitch for a male voice is 120Hz and for a female voice is 210Hz... what if a male voice pitch of a male is 121 or 125? is it already considered a high pitch? and what if a female has a 208Hz voice pitch? is that already a low pitch since it's lower than the "average pitch"?

It doesn't seem right that so many homework questions be asked and answered here. Are we helping school kids cheat? Are we helping them to fail? Do they learn anything from the exercise? Should they work the problems out with their parents? With their peers?
