Frage 1 Bericht
Musa borrows N10.00 at 2% per month simple interest and repays N8.00 after 4 months. How much does he still owe?
Antwortdetails
To calculate the simple interest that Musa owes, we can use the following formula: Simple Interest = Principal * Rate * Time Where Principal is the amount of the loan, Rate is the interest rate per month and Time is the number of months the loan is taken for. In this case, the Principal is N10.00, the Rate is 2% per month, and the Time is 4 months. So, the simple interest would be: N10.00 * 2% * 4 = N0.80 This means that after 4 months, Musa would owe N10.00 + N0.80 = N10.80 Now, if we subtract the amount that he repaid (N8.00) from the total amount he owes (N10.80), we get N10.80 - N8.00 = N2.80 So, Musa still owes N2.80. Answer: N2.80

Frage 8 Bericht
Each of the interior angles of a regular polygon is 140°. How many sides has the polygon?
Antwortdetails
A regular polygon is a polygon with equal sides and equal interior angles. The formula to find the interior angle of a regular polygon is given by: (180 * (n-2)) / n, where n is the number of sides in the polygon. So, if each interior angle of a regular polygon is 140°, we can plug that value into the formula and solve for n: 140 = (180 * (n-2)) / n Multiplying both sides by n gives: 140n = 180 * (n-2) Expanding the right side gives: 140n = 180n - 360 Subtracting 140n from both sides gives: 0 = 40n - 360 Adding 360 to both sides gives: 360 = 40n Dividing both sides by 40 gives: n = 9 So, the polygon has 9 sides.

A group of market women sell at least one of yam, plantain and maize. 12 of them sell maize, 10 sell yam and 14 sell plantain. 5 sell plantain and maize, 4 sell yam and maize, 2 sell yam and plantain only while 3 sell all the three items. How many women are in the group?
Antwortdetails
To find the total number of market women, we need to make sure that we don't count the same person twice. So, let's break it down: - 12 women sell maize only. - 10 women sell yam only. - 14 women sell plantain only. - 5 women sell both plantain and maize. - 4 women sell both yam and maize. - 2 women sell both yam and plantain. - 3 women sell all three items. Since we counted the women who sell both plantain and maize twice, we need to subtract 5-2=3 from the total number of women. And since we counted the women who sell both yam and maize twice, we need to subtract 4-2=2 from the total number of women. Finally, we need to add back the 3 women who sell all three items because we subtracted them twice (once for each combination of two items). So the total number of women is 12 + 10 + 14 + 3 - 3 + 2 + 3 = 25. Therefore, there are 25 market women in the group.

What is the rate of change of the volume V of a hemisphere with respect to its radius r when r = 2?
Antwortdetails
The formula for the volume of a hemisphere is given by (2/3)πr^3, where r is the radius. To find the rate of change of the volume with respect to the radius, we need to take the derivative of this formula with respect to r. So, dV/dr = (2/3) * π * 3r^2 * dr/dr = (2/3) * π * 3r^2 = 2πr^2. Now, when r = 2, the rate of change of the volume with respect to the radius is given by 2π * 2^2 = 8π. So, the answer is 8π.

Antwortdetails
Given (x + 2) and (x - 1), i.e. x = -2 or +1
when x = -2
L(-2) + 2k(-2)2 + 24 = 0
f(-2) = -2L + 8k = -24...(i)
And x = 1
L(1) + 2k(1) + 24 = 0
f(1):L + 2k = -24...(ii)
Subst, L = -24 - 2k in eqn (i)
-2(-24 - 2k) + 8k = -24

k = frac−7212
k = -6
where L = -24 - 2k
L = -24 - 2(-6)
L = -24 + 12
L = -12

The mean of ten positive numbers is 16. When another number is added, the mean becomes 18. Find the eleventh number
Antwortdetails
The mean of ten positive numbers is the sum of all ten numbers divided by ten. So if the mean of the ten numbers is 16, then the sum of all ten numbers must be 160 (16 x 10). When an eleventh number is added, the mean becomes 18, so the sum of all eleven numbers must be 198 (18 x 11). We can find the eleventh number by subtracting the sum of the first ten numbers from the sum of all eleven numbers: 198 (sum of all eleven numbers) - 160 (sum of first ten numbers) = 38 So the eleventh number is 38.

Frage 23 Bericht
Simplify 2log 25 - log72125 + log 9
Antwortdetails
To simplify the expression 2log 25 - log 72125 + log 9, we need to use the logarithmic properties of logarithms. One of the properties of logarithms is log a^b = b log a, which allows us to rewrite log 25 as 5 log 5, log 72125 as 5 log 72, and log 9 as 2 log 3. Using this property, the expression becomes 2 log 5 - 5 log 72 + 2 log 3. Another property of logarithms is log a / log b = log a / b, which allows us to simplify the logarithm of the ratio of two numbers as the logarithm of the first number divided by the logarithm of the second number. Using this property, the expression becomes 2 log 5 - (5 / 5) log 72 + 2 log 3, which simplifies to 2 log 5 - log 72 + 2 log 3. Finally, we can simplify the expression further by using the property log a^m = m log a, which allows us to rewrite log 72 as log 2^6, so that the expression becomes 2 log 5 - 6 log 2 + 2 log 3. So, the simplified expression is 2 log 5 - 6 log 2 + 2 log 3 = 2 log (5 * 3^2 / 2^6) = 2 log (3^2 / 2^4) = 2 log 3 - 4 log 2 = 2 * 1.0986 - 4 * 0.3010 = 2.1976 - 1.2040 = 1 - 2 log 2. So, the answer is (D) 1 - 2 log 2.
Frage 24 Bericht
If the binary operation ∗ is defined by m ∗ n = mn + m + n for any real number m and n, find the identity of the elements under this operation
Antwortdetails
The identity element of a binary operation is an element "e" in a set such that for any element "x" in the same set, the result of the binary operation "e * x" or "x * e" is equal to "x". In other words, it's an element that doesn't change the result when it's multiplied with any other element. In this case, if we set "m = e" and "n = 0", the equation becomes: "e * 0 + e + 0 = e". This means that the identity element for this binary operation is "e = 0". So, the answer is: "e = 0".

In how many ways can 2 students be selected from a group of 5 students in a debating competition?
Antwortdetails
The number of ways to select 2 students from a group of 5 students is 10. Imagine you're picking two students from a lineup of 5 students. You can pick the first student in 5 different ways (student 1, student 2, student 3, student 4, or student 5). Once you've picked the first student, there are only 4 students left in the lineup, so you can only pick the second student in 4 different ways. So, to find the total number of ways to select 2 students from a group of 5, you multiply the number of ways to pick the first student by the number of ways to pick the second student: 5 * 4 = 20. However, since order doesn't matter (it doesn't matter if you pick student 1 first or student 2 first), you divide the total number of ways by 2 to account for the overcounting. So, the final answer is 20 / 2 = 10.

Find the probability that a number selected at random from 41 to 56 is a multiple of 9
Antwortdetails
The numbers between 41 and 56 that are multiples of 9 are 45 and 54. So, there are 2 numbers out of 16 total numbers that are multiples of 9. To find the probability, we divide the number of favorable outcomes by the number of total outcomes. In this case, the probability is 2/16, which can be simplified to 1/8. So, the probability that a number selected at random from 41 to 56 is a multiple of 9 is 1/8.

Find the length of a side of a rhombus whose diagonals are 6cm and 8cm
Antwortdetails
Let's call the length of one side of the rhombus "s". We know that the diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at 90 degrees, which means that each diagonal cuts the rhombus into two congruent right triangles. If we take one of these triangles and drop a perpendicular from the corner to the midpoint of the opposite side, we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of "s". The Pythagorean theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the longest side) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. In this case, the hypotenuse is one of the diagonals, and the other two sides are half of "s" and half of the other diagonal. So, we have: (1/2)^2 * 6^2 + (1/2)^2 * 8^2 = s^2 Simplifying this expression, we find: 9 + 16 = s^2 25 = s^2 And finally, taking the square root of both sides: s = 5 So, the length of one side of the rhombus is 5cm.
Frage 36 Bericht
P(-6, 1) and Q(6, 6) are the two ends of the diameter of a given circle. Calculate the radius.
Antwortdetails
The radius of a circle is the distance from the center of the circle to any point on the circumference of the circle. In this question, we are given the two ends of the diameter of a circle, so the radius is half of the diameter. The distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem: √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2). Applying this formula to points P and Q, we have: √((6 - (-6))^2 + (6 - 1)^2) = √(12^2 + 5^2) = √(144 + 25) = √169 = 13.0 So, the diameter is 13.0 units, and the radius is half of that, which is 6.5 units. Therefore, the answer is 6.5 units.

5x - 30 = 65°
4x+ 60 = 136°
60 - x =41°
3x + 61 = 118°
Smallest of these angles is 41°
Frage 38 Bericht
wo numbers are removed at random from the numbers 1, 2, 3 and 4. What is the probability that the sum of the numbers removed is even?
Antwortdetails
The probability that the sum of two numbers removed is even can be found by counting the number of even sums and dividing it by the total number of possible sums. Out of the 4 numbers, 2 are even (2 and 4) and 2 are odd (1 and 3). If we take one even and one odd number, the sum will be odd. If we take two even numbers, the sum will be even. And if we take two odd numbers, the sum will be even. So, there are 3 ways to get an even sum (taking 2 and 4, taking 2 and 2, or taking 1 and 3) and 6 total ways to choose two numbers (since order doesn't matter). So, the probability of getting an even sum is 3/6 or 1/2. In simple terms, there's a 50-50 chance that the sum of two numbers removed will be even.
