Hi!Thisisexcellent!Butcanyouanswertheactivities24.1to24.4inthischapter,
please? I know the book has the answers at the back but some say Student's own
answer and others are not fully explained as it should be. I want them fully
explained. I have to do a presentation on this topic and my teacher asked me to
explain the activities as well as the revision questions of this chapter in the book.

For 24.1, the main factors could be Power, since the factory is far away
from the cities, it'll be hard to get electricity from a region which is far
awayfromthecity,samegoesfortheWaterSupply.AndTransportand
communication is also a factor since it won't be easy to contact the
business,thusthebusinesswillhavetroublegettingtheirproductsfrom
