Question 1:

Earlier there were no rabbits in Australia. Rabbits were brought to Australia around the year 1780. At that time there were no animals in Australia which ate rabbits. So the rabbits began to multiply at a very fast rate. Imagine what they did to the crops! The table shows how rabbits grew every year.

(1) After each year the number of rabbits was — (a) a little less than double the number of rabbits in the last year. (b) double the number in the last year. (c) 8 more than the number in the last year. (d) more than double the number of rabbits in the last year. (2) At the end of year 6, the number of rabbits was close to

(3) After which year did the number of rabbits cross 1000?

Question 1:

Amit sowed a few seeds of moong dal in the ground. The height of the plant grew to 1.4 cm in the first four days. After that it started growing faster. Amit measured the height of the plant after every four days and put a dot on the chart. For example if you look at the dot marked on the fourth day, you can see on the left side scale that it is 1.4 cm high. Now look at the height of each dot in cm and check from the table if he has marked the dots correctly.

Find out from the growth chart (a) Between which days did the length of the plant change the most? (i) 0-4 (ii) 4-8 (iii) 8-12 (iv) 12-16 (v) 16-20 (b) What could be the length of this plant on the 14th day? Guess. (i) 8.7 cm (ii) 9.9 cm (iii) 10.2 cm (iv) 10.5 cm (c) Will the plant keep growing all the time? What will be its length on the 100th day? Make a guess!
