Maelezo ya Majibu

If (0.25)\(^y\) = 32, find the value of y.

Maelezo ya Majibu

We can solve the given equation by taking the logarithm of both sides. Any base of the logarithm can be used, but we will use the common logarithm (base 10). log\((0.25)^y\) = log 32 Using the logarithmic identity log\((a^b)\) = b log\((a)\), we get: y log\((0.25)\) = log 32 Now, we can evaluate log\((0.25)\) using the logarithmic identity log\((a^n)\) = n log\((a)\), as follows: log\((0.25)\) = log\((\frac{1}{4})\) = log\((4^{-1})\) = -log\((4)\) We know that log\((10^x)\) = x, so log\((4)\) = log\((10^{0.602})\) \(\approx\) 0.602 Therefore, y log\((0.25)\) = log 32 y (-log\((4)\)) = log 32 y (-0.602) = log 32 y = \(\frac{\text{log } 32}{-0.602}\) Using a calculator, we get: y \(\approx\) -2.5 Therefore, the value of y is approximately -2.5. Hence, the answer is: y = -\(\frac{5}{2}\).

The foot of a ladder is 6m from the base of an electric pole. The top of the ladder rest against the pole at a point 8m above the ground. How long is the ladder? 

Maelezo ya Majibu

To find the length of the ladder, we can use the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse (the longest side) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. In this case, the ladder is the hypotenuse, and the distance from the foot of the ladder to the pole and the height of the pole where the ladder is resting form the other two sides of the right triangle. So we have: Length of ladder^2 = (distance from foot of ladder to pole)^2 + (height of pole where ladder is resting)^2 Length of ladder^2 = 6^2 + 8^2 Length of ladder^2 = 36 + 64 Length of ladder^2 = 100 Length of ladder = √100 = 10 Therefore, the length of the ladder is 10 meters. Answer option C (10m) is correct.

In XYZ, |YZ| = 32cm, < YXZ 53\(^o\) and XZY = 90\(^o\). Find, correct to the nearest centimetre, |XZ|

Maelezo ya Majibu

From the top of a vehicle cliff 20m high, a boat at sea can be sighted 75m away and on the same horizontal position as the cliff. Calculate, correct to the nearest degree, the angle of depression of the boat from the top of the cliff. 

Maelezo ya Majibu

The situation can be represented by the following diagram: ``` A /| / | 20m / | B---C 75m ``` Where A is the top of the cliff, B is the boat, and C is the point on the cliff directly above the boat. We want to find the angle of depression, which is the angle ACB. We can use trigonometry to find this angle. First, we need to find the length of AC. This is simply the height of the cliff, which is given as 20m. Next, we need to find the length of BC. This is the horizontal distance from the base of the cliff to the boat, which is given as 75m. Now we can use the tangent function to find the angle of depression: tan(ACB) = opposite / adjacent = 20 / 75 Taking the inverse tangent (or arctan) of both sides gives: ACB = arctan(20 / 75) = 15.02 degrees (to two decimal places) Therefore, the angle of depression of the boat from the top of the cliff is approximately 15 degrees (to the nearest degree). So the answer is option D: 15\(^o\).

Find the equation of a straight line passing through the point (1, -5) and having gradient of \(\frac{3}{4}\) 

Maelezo ya Majibu

If T = {prime numbers} and M = {odd numbers} are subsets of \(\mu\)  = {x : 0 < x ≤ 10} and x is an integer, find (T\(^{\prime}\) n M\(^{\prime}\)). 

Maelezo ya Majibu

The set T is the set of prime numbers less than or equal to 10, which are {2, 3, 5, 7}. The prime complement (T\(\prime\)) is the set of non-prime numbers less than or equal to 10, which are {1, 4, 6, 8, 10}. The set M is the set of odd numbers less than or equal to 10, which are {1, 3, 5, 7, 9}. The odd complement (M\(\prime\)) is the set of even numbers less than or equal to 10, which are {2, 4, 6, 8, 10}. Finally, the intersection of T\(\prime\) and M\(\prime\) is the set of numbers that are both non-prime and even, which is {4, 6, 8, 10}. So (T\(\prime\) n M\(\prime\)) = {4, 6, 8, 10}.

Simplify, correct to three significant figures, (27.63)\(^2\) - (12.37)\(^2\) 

Maelezo ya Majibu

We can start by squaring each of the numbers in the expression: (27.63)\(^2\) = 762.9869 (12.37)\(^2\) = 153.4369 Now we can subtract the two squares: 762.9869 - 153.4369 = 609.55 Rounding the result to three significant figures, we get: 609.55 = 610 So (27.63)\(^2\) - (12.37)\(^2\) = 610.

Maelezo ya Majibu

If tan x = \(\frac{3}{4}\), 0 < x < 90\(^o\), evaluate \(\frac{\cos x}{2 sin x}\) 

Maelezo ya Majibu

We are given that \(\tan x = \frac{3}{4}\) and \(0 < x < 90^o\). Since \(\tan x = \frac{\sin x}{\cos x}\), we can rewrite the given equation as: \[\frac{\sin x}{\cos x} = \frac{3}{4}\] Multiplying both sides by \(\cos x\) gives us: \[\sin x = \frac{3}{4}\cos x\] Dividing both sides by \(2\sin x\) gives us: \[\frac{\cos x}{2\sin x} = \frac{\frac{4}{3}\sin x}{2\sin x} = \frac{4}{3} \cdot \frac{1}{2} = \frac{2}{3}\] Therefore, the value of \(\frac{\cos x}{2\sin x}\) is \(\frac{2}{3}\). Hence, the answer is: \(\frac{2}{3}\).

Maelezo ya Majibu

If log\(_x\) 2 = 0.3, evaluate log\(_x\) 8.

Maelezo ya Majibu

We can use the property of logarithms that states: $$\log_{a}(b^c) = c \log_{a}(b)$$ Using this property, we can rewrite the expression for log\(_x\) 8 as: $$\log_{x}(8) = \log_{x}(2^3) = 3\log_{x}(2)$$ We are given that log\(_x\) 2 = 0.3, so we can substitute this value: $$3\log_{x}(2) = 3(0.3) = 0.9$$ Therefore, the value of log\(_x\) 8 is 0.9. Therefore, option (C) is the correct answer: 0.9.

Maelezo ya Majibu

Simplify: \(\frac{x^2 - 5x - 14}{x^2 - 9x + 14}\) 

Maelezo ya Majibu

To simplify the fraction, we need to find a common denominator for the numerator and denominator. The denominator, \(x^2 - 9x + 14\), can be factored into the product of two binomials: \((x - 7)(x - 2)\). Now, to simplify the numerator, we can factor it as well: \(x^2 - 5x - 14 = (x - 7)(x + 2)\). With this factoring, we can cancel out the common factor of \(x - 7\) in the numerator and denominator, leaving us with the simplified fraction: \(\frac{x^2 - 5x - 14}{x^2 - 9x + 14} = \frac{(x - 7)(x + 2)}{(x - 7)(x - 2)} = \frac{x + 2}{x - 2}\). So the simplified fraction is.

Maelezo ya Majibu

Evaluate: 2\(\sqrt{28} - 3\sqrt{50} + \sqrt{72}\)  

Maelezo ya Majibu

To evaluate the expression 2\(\sqrt{28} - 3\sqrt{50} + \sqrt{72}\), we need to simplify the square roots first. \(\sqrt{28} = 2\sqrt{7}\) \(\sqrt{50} = 5\sqrt{2}\) \(\sqrt{72} = 2\sqrt{18} = 2\sqrt{9}\sqrt{2} = 6\sqrt{2}\) Now that we have simplified the square roots, we can substitute the values back into the expression: 2\(\sqrt{28} - 3\sqrt{50} + \sqrt{72}\) = 2 * 2\(\sqrt{7}\) - 3 * 5\(\sqrt{2}\) + 6\(\sqrt{2}\) = 4\(\sqrt{7}\) - 3 * 5\(\sqrt{2}\) + 6\(\sqrt{2}\) = 4\(\sqrt{7}\) - 15\(\sqrt{2}\) + 6\(\sqrt{2}\) = 4\(\sqrt{7}\) - 9\(\sqrt{2}\) So the expression evaluates to 4\(\sqrt{7}\) - 9\(\sqrt{2}\).

Maelezo ya Majibu

Eric sold his house through an agent who charged 8% commission on the selling price. If Eric received $117,760.00 after the sale, what was the selling price of the house? 

Maelezo ya Majibu

The commission charged by the agent is 8% of the selling price. This means that the remaining amount that Eric received after the sale is 92% of the selling price (100% - 8% = 92%). We can set up an equation to solve for the selling price: 92% of selling price = $117,760.00 To solve for the selling price, we can divide both sides by 92% (or multiply by the reciprocal of 92%, which is 100/92): selling price = $117,760.00 ÷ 0.92 Using a calculator, we get: selling price = $128,000.00 Therefore, the selling price of the house was $128,000.00.

Maelezo ya Majibu

If 2\(^{a}\) = \(\sqrt{64}\) and \(\frac{b}{a}\) = 3, evaluate a\(^2 + b^{2}\) 

Maelezo ya Majibu

First, let's solve for a using the given equation 2\(^{a}\) = \(\sqrt{64}\). We know that \(\sqrt{64}\) is equal to 8, so we can substitute this value in the equation: 2\(^{a}\) = 8 To solve for a, we need to find the exponent that 2 is raised to in order to get 8. This exponent is 3, so a = 3. Next, we need to find the value of b. We are given that \(\frac{b}{a}\) = 3, so we can rearrange this equation to solve for b: b = 3a Substituting the value we found for a, we get: b = 3 x 3 = 9 Finally, we can evaluate a\(^2\) + b\(^2\) using the values we found for a and b: a\(^2\) + b\(^2\) = 3\(^2\) + 9\(^2\) = 9 + 81 = 90 Therefore, the answer is 90.

Maelezo ya Majibu

If 6, P, and 14 are consecutive terms in an Arithmetic Progression (AP), find the value of P.

Maelezo ya Majibu

In an arithmetic progression (AP), the difference between any two consecutive terms is constant. So, we can find the common difference (d) between any two consecutive terms in the given AP by subtracting one term from the preceding term. Let's use the second term (P) and the first term (6) to find the common difference: d = P - 6 Now, to check whether 14 is the third term of the AP, we can use the formula for the nth term of an AP: an = a1 + (n-1)d where an = nth term a1 = first term d = common difference If 14 is the third term, then n = 3, so we have: 14 = 6 + (3-1)d 14 = 6 + 2d 2d = 8 d = 4 Now, we can substitute the value of d in the expression we got earlier: d = P - 6 4 = P - 6 P = 10 Therefore, the value of P is 10.

The following are scores obtained by some students in a test, Find the mode of the distribution  

Maelezo ya Majibu

To find the mode of the distribution, we need to determine the value that appears most frequently in the dataset. Looking at the table, we can see that the value "13" appears three times, which is more than any other value. Therefore, the mode of this distribution is 13. Alternatively, we could create a frequency table or a histogram to visualize the distribution and identify the mode more easily.

Maelezo ya Majibu

An arc subtends an angle of 72\(^o\) at the centre of a circle. Find the length of the arc if the radius of the circle is 3.5 cm. [Take \(\pi = \frac{22}{7}\)]

Maelezo ya Majibu

To find the length of the arc, we need to use the formula: Length of arc = \(\frac{\text{angle subtended by the arc}}{360^\circ} \times 2\pi r\) Here, the angle subtended by the arc is 72\(^o\) and the radius of the circle is 3.5 cm. We can substitute these values in the formula to get: Length of arc = \(\frac{72^\circ}{360^\circ} \times 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 3.5\) cm Simplifying this expression, we get: Length of arc = \(\frac{1}{5} \times \frac{44}{7} \times 3.5\) cm Length of arc = \(\frac{22}{5}\) cm Length of arc = 4.4 cm (approx.) Therefore, the length of the arc is 4.4 cm (option C).

Factorize completely; (2x + 2y)(x - y) + (2x - 2y)(x + y) 

Maelezo ya Majibu

To factorize the given expression, we can use the distributive property of multiplication over addition. This means that we need to multiply each term in the first set of parentheses by each term in the second set of parentheses, and then simplify: (2x + 2y)(x - y) + (2x - 2y)(x + y) = 2x(x - y) + 2y(x - y) + 2x(x + y) - 2y(x + y) (using distributive property) = 2x^2 - 2xy + 2xy + 2y^2 + 2x^2 + 2xy - 2xy - 2y^2 (combining like terms) = 4x^2 - 4y^2 Therefore, the answer is 4(x - y)(x + y). Explanation: We can factorize the given expression by grouping the terms into two sets, each set containing two terms with a common factor. We can then factor out that common factor from each set, and simplify. In this case, we can factor out 2 from the first set of parentheses, and -2 from the second set of parentheses, giving us: 2(x + y)(x - y) - 2(x + y)(x - y) We can then combine the two sets of parentheses, giving us: (2(x + y) - 2(x - y))(x - y) Simplifying the expression inside the parentheses gives us: (2x + 2y - 2x + 2y)(x - y) Which further simplifies to: 4y(x - y) However, this is not the fully factored form, since we can factor out 4 from the expression to get: 4(x - y)(y) So the answer is 4(x - y)(y), which is equivalent to option A.

Evaluate: \(\frac{0.42 + 2.5}{0.5 \times 2.95}\), leaving the answer in the standard form.

Maelezo ya Majibu

To solve this expression, we need to follow the order of operations which is parentheses, exponents, multiplication and division (from left to right), and addition and subtraction (from left to right). We do not have any parentheses or exponents, so we can proceed to the multiplication and division step. We have: \[\frac{0.42 + 2.5}{0.5 \times 2.95} = \frac{2.92}{1.475}\] Next, we can simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor which is 0.05. \[\frac{2.92}{1.475} = \frac{292}{147.5}\] Finally, we can express this fraction in standard form by moving the decimal point in the numerator to the left by two places and simultaneously moving the decimal point in the denominator to the left by two places. \[\frac{292}{147.5} = 1.98\] Therefore, the answer is 1.639 x 10\(^1\) in standard form.

Maelezo ya Majibu

Bala sold an article for #6,900.00 and made a profit of 15%. Calculate his percentage profit if he had sold it for N6,600.00. 

Maelezo ya Majibu

If Bala sold an article for #6,900.00 and made a profit of 15%, this means that his cost price for the article was lower than the selling price by 15%. We can calculate his cost price as follows: Cost Price = Selling Price / (1 + Profit%) Cost Price = 6,900 / (1 + 0.15) Cost Price = 6,000 Therefore, Bala's cost price was #6,000.00, and he sold the article for #6,900.00, making a profit of #900.00. Now, we need to calculate the percentage profit he would have made if he sold the article for #6,600.00 instead of #6,900.00. To do this, we can use the following formula: Percentage Profit = (Profit / Cost Price) x 100% Percentage Profit = (6,600 - 6,000) / 6,000 x 100% Percentage Profit = 10% Therefore, if Bala had sold the article for #6,600.00 instead of #6,900.00, he would have made a profit of 10%. The correct option is 10%.

Express, correct to three significant figures, 0.003597. 

Maelezo ya Majibu

To express 0.003597 correct to three significant figures, we need to round off the number to the third digit after the decimal point. The third digit after the decimal point is 7. Since 7 is greater than or equal to 5, we need to round up the second digit after the decimal point. Therefore, the third digit becomes zero. Hence, the rounded value of 0.003597 correct to three significant figures is 0.00360. Therefore, the answer is: 0.00360.

Solve: \(\frac{y + 1}{2} - \frac{2y - 1}{3}\) = 4

Maelezo ya Majibu

To solve this equation, we can start by simplifying both sides by finding a common denominator. \(\frac{y + 1}{2} - \frac{2y - 1}{3} = 4\) Multiplying the first term by 3 and the second term by 2 (the least common multiple of 2 and 3), we get: \(\frac{3(y+1)}{6} - \frac{2(2y-1)}{6} = 4\) Simplifying this gives: \(\frac{3y + 3 - 4y + 2}{6} = 4\) Combining like terms: \(\frac{-y + 5}{6} = 4\) Multiplying both sides by 6: \(-y + 5 = 24\) Subtracting 5 from both sides: \(-y = 19\) Finally, multiplying both sides by -1 to solve for y: \(y = -19\) Therefore, the solution is y = -19.

Maelezo ya Majibu

There are 8 boys and 4 girls in a lift. What is the probability that the first person who steps out of the lift will be a boy? 

Maelezo ya Majibu

The probability of an event happening is the number of ways it can happen divided by the total number of outcomes. In this case, there are 8 boys and 4 girls in the lift. If the first person who steps out of the lift is a boy, it means that any one of the 8 boys can be the first person to step out of the lift. Therefore, the number of ways the event can happen is 8. The total number of outcomes is the total number of people who can step out of the lift first. Since there are 12 people in the lift, any one of the 12 people can be the first person to step out of the lift. Therefore, the total number of outcomes is 12. Therefore, the probability that the first person who steps out of the lift will be a boy is: probability = number of ways the event can happen / total number of outcomes probability = 8 / 12 probability = 2 / 3 Hence, the answer is: \(\frac{2}{3}\).

Evaluate; \(\frac{\log_3 9 - \log_2 8}{\log_3 9}\) 

Maelezo ya Majibu

We can use the laws of logarithms to simplify the expression: \(\frac{\log_3 9 - \log_2 8}{\log_3 9} = \frac{\log_3 (3^2) - \log_2 (2^3)}{\log_3 (3^2)}\) Using the laws of logarithms, we can simplify the numerator: \(\frac{\log_3 (3^2) - \log_2 (2^3)}{\log_3 (3^2)} = \frac{2\log_3 3 - 3\log_2 2}{2\log_3 3}\) We know that \(\log_3 3 = 1\) and \(\log_2 2 = 1\), so we can substitute these values: \(\frac{2\log_3 3 - 3\log_2 2}{2\log_3 3} = \frac{2 - 3}{2} = -\frac{1}{2}\) Therefore, the value of the expression is -\(\frac{1}{2}\).

Maelezo ya Majibu

There are 5 + 6 + 7 = 18 pencils in the box. Since there are 6 green pencils, the probability of picking a green pencil at random is 6/18, which simplifies to 1/3. Therefore, the answer is \(\frac{1}{3}\).

The fourth term of an Arithmetic Progression (A.P) is 37 and the first term is -20. Find the common difference.
 

Maelezo ya Majibu

In an arithmetic progression (AP), the terms are equally spaced. Let's call the common difference "d". If we have the first term "a" and the nth term "an", we can find the common difference using the formula: d = (an - a) / (n - 1) In this case, the fourth term is 37 and the first term is -20, so we can plug in the values into the formula: d = (37 - (-20)) / (4 - 1) = 57 / 3 = 19 So the common difference is 19.

(b) If 1342\(_{five}\) - 241\(_{five}\) = x\(_{ten}\), find the value of x.
 

Maelezo ya Majibu

a. To simplify the expression, we can use the properties of logarithms:

• log_a + log_b = log_ab
• log_a - log_b = log_(a/b)
• log_aⁿ = n log_a

Using these properties, we can simplify the expression as follows:

\(\frac{{\log_2 8 + \log_2 16 - 4 \log_2 2}}{{\log_4 16}}\)

= \(\frac{{3 + 4 - 4(1)}}{2}\) since log base 2 of 8 is equal to 3, log base 2 of 16 is equal to 4, and log base 2 of 2 is equal to 1.

= \(\frac{3}{2}\)

Therefore, \(\frac{{\log_2 8 + \log_2 16 - 4 \log_2 2}}{{\log_4 16}}\) simplifies to \(\frac{3}{2}\).

b. 1342_five means 1*(5^3) + 3*(5^2) + 4*(5^1) + 2*(5^0) in base 10, which equals 125 + 75 + 20 + 2 = 222.

241_five means 2*(5^2) + 4*(5^1) + 1*(5^0) in base 10, which equals 50 + 20 + 1 = 71.

Therefore, 1342_five - 241_five in base 10 equals 222 - 71 = 151.

Since the question asks us to find the value of x_ten, which is the base 10 representation of the result, we have x_ten = 151.

Maelezo ya Majibu

(I) To find the expression for F in terms of m₁, m₂, and d:

We can use the formula for direct variation and inverse variation:

F ∝ (m₁ m₂) / d²

where k is a constant of proportionality. To find the value of k, we can use the given values:

20 = k (25 x 10) / (5²)

Simplifying this equation gives:

k = 4

Therefore, the expression for F in terms of m₁, m₂, and d is:

F = 4(m₁ m₂) / d²

(ii) To find the distance, d, for F = 30N, m₁ = 7.5kg, and m₂ = 4kg:

We can use the expression we found in part (i):

30 = 4(7.5 x 4) / d²

Simplifying this equation gives:

d² = (4 x 7.5 x 4) / 30

d² = 4

Taking the square root of both sides gives:

d = 2 meters

Therefore, the distance between the two bodies is 2 meters.

(b) In the diagram:

We can see that there are two right triangles that share a common side, which is x. The two triangles have sides of length 3 and 4, and sides of length 5 and x.

Since these are right triangles, we can use the Pythagorean theorem:

3² + 4² = 5² + x²

Simplifying this equation gives:

9 + 16 = 25 + x²

25 = x²

Taking the square root of both sides gives:

x = 5

Therefore, the value of x in the diagram is 5.

(a)

We know that log₁₀a = 1.3010. Therefore, we can use the definition of logarithms to write:

10^1.3010 = a
a = 19.9526

We also know that log₁₀b = 1.4771. Using the same process as above, we can find that:

10^1.4771 = b
b = 30.059

Finally, we can find the value of ab by multiplying these two values:

ab = 19.9526 * 30.059
ab = 600.001

Therefore, ab is approximately equal to 600 (to the nearest whole number).

We can start by using the fact that angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees. Therefore, angle AOB is:

angle AOB = 180 - angle ACB
angle AOB = 180 - 39
angle AOB = 141

Since O is the center of the circle, we know that AC and BC are radii of the circle. Therefore, they are equal in length. We can use this fact to find the length of CD, since angle CDE is a right angle:

CD = AC = BC
CD = d
sin(62) = CD/CE
CD = CE * sin(62)

Now we can use the cosine rule to find the length of CE:

CE^2 = AC^2 + AE^2 - 2(AC)(AE)cos(39)
CE^2 = d^2 + e^2 - 2de(cos(141))

We can also use the cosine rule to find the

(a) Fred bought a car for $5,600.00 and later sold it at 90% of the cost price. He spent $1,310.00 out of the amount received and invested the rest at 6% per annum simple interest. Calculate the interest earned in 3 years.

(b) Solve the equations 2\(^x\)(4\(^{-7}\)) = 2 and 3\(^{-x}\)(9\(^{2y}\)) = 3 simultaneously.
 

Maelezo ya Majibu

a) First, let's calculate the amount Fred received after selling the car. He sold the car for 90% of its cost price, so he received $5,600 * 0.9 = $5,040.00. After spending $1,310.00, he was left with $5,040 - $1,310 = $3,730.00. This is the amount he invested at 6% per annum simple interest.

The formula for simple interest is I = P * R * T, where I is the interest, P is the principal (the amount invested), R is the rate of interest (as a decimal), and T is the time (in years). Plugging in the values, we have I = $3,730 * 0.06 * 3 = $676.20.

So Fred earned $676.20 in interest over a period of 3 years.

b) To solve the equations 2^x(4^-7) = 2 and 3^-x(9^2y) = 3 simultaneously, we need to find the values of x and y that make both equations true.

Starting with the first equation, we can simplify the left-hand side to get 2^x * 4^-7 = 2^x * (1/16) = 2. We can then divide both sides of the equation by 2^x to get (1/16) = 1. Since this is not true, there are no values of x that make this equation true.

Next, let's simplify the second equation to get 3^-x * 9^2y = 3^-x * 81^y = 3. Dividing both sides of the equation by 3^-x gives us 81^y = 3^x. Taking the log base 3 of both sides gives us y = x.

So the only solution for x and y is x = y = 1.

In conclusion, there is only one solution for the system of equations, x = y = 1.

b) To draw the graph of y = 2 cos x + 3 sin x, we can start by plotting the points from the table of values onto the x-y plane. Then, we can connect the points to form the graph of the equation.

c) (i) To solve 2 cos x + 3 sin x = -1, we can use the inverse trigonometric functions to find the angle x that satisfies this equation. For example, we can use the identity cos^2 x + sin^2 x = 1 to solve for either cos x or sin x in terms of the other, then use the inverse cosine or sine function to find the angle x.

(ii) To find the value of y when x = 342°, we substitute this value of x into the equation y = 2 cos x + 3 sin x and solve for y. For example, using a calculator, we can find that y = 2 cos 342° + 3 sin 342° = 1.6.

In the diagram, PQRS is a quadrilateral, < PQR = < PRS = 90\(^o\), |PQ| =3cm, |QR| = 4cm and |PS| = 13 cm. Find the area of the quadrilateral. 

Maelezo ya Majibu

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the diagonal PR and then use the formula for the area of a parallelogram to find the area of the quadrilateral.

The Pythagorean theorem states that in a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the lengths of the two smaller sides is equal to the square of the length of the longest side, which is the hypotenuse. In this case, the right triangle is PQR, so we have:

PQ² + QR² = PR²

Substituting the given values, we get:

3² + 4² = PR²

9 + 16 = PR²

25 = PR²

PR = sqrt(25) = 5

Now that we have the length of the diagonal PR, we can find the area of the parallelogram using the formula:

Area = base * height

Since PR is the height of the parallelogram, we can use any of the sides of the quadrilateral as the base. Let's use PQ as the base:

Area = PQ * PR

Area = 3 * 5

Area = 15 square cm

So the area of the quadrilateral is 15 square cm.

(a) The curved surface areas of two cones are equal. The base radius of one is 5 cm and its slant height is 12cm. calculate the height of the second cone if its base radius is 6 cm.

(i) BA; 
(ii) the determinant of BA. 

Maelezo ya Majibu

a) We can use the formula for the curved surface area of a cone, which is given by πrs, where r is the radius of the base and s is the slant height. Let's assume that the height of the second cone is h. Then we have:

π(5)(12) = π(6)(√(6^2 - h^2))

Simplifying the equation, we get:

60 = 6√(36 - h^2)

10 = √(36 - h^2)

Squaring both sides, we get:

100 = 36 - h^2

h^2 = 64

h = 8

Therefore, the height of the second cone is 8 cm.

b) (i) To find BA, we need to multiply the matrices in the order B x A. The product is given by:

BA = ∡(3 -2) (4 1) x (2 5) (-1 -3) = ∡(8 21) (7 17)

(ii) The determinant of a product of two matrices is equal to the product of their determinants, i.e., |AB| = |A||B|. Therefore, to find the determinant of BA, we can multiply the determinants of B and A. The determinant of a 2x2 matrix is given by the formula ad - bc, where a, b, c, and d are the elements of the matrix. Using this formula, we get:

|BA| = (8)(17) - (21)(7) = -49

Therefore, the determinant of BA is -49.

(a) The third and sixth terms of a Geometric Progression (G.P) are and \(\frac{1}{4}\) and \(\frac{1}{32}\) respectively.

Find:

(i) the first term and the common ratio;

(ii) the seventh term.

(b) Given that 2 and -3 are the roots of the equation ax\(^2\) ± bx + c = 0, find the values of a, b and c. 

Maelezo ya Majibu

(a) (i) The first term and the common ratio of a Geometric Progression (G.P) can be found using the formula for the nth term of a G.P:

a_n = a * r^(n-1)

where a is the first term, r is the common ratio, and n is the term number.

We are given that the third term is 1/4 and the sixth term is 1/32. We can use these values to solve for a and r:

a * r^(3-1) = 1/4

a * r^(6-1) = 1/32

Dividing the second equation by the first:

a * r^(6-1) / a * r^(3-1) = 1/32 / 1/4

r³ = 1/32 / 1/4

r³ = (1/32) * (4)

r³ = 1

Taking the cube root of both sides:

r = 1^(1/3) = 1

Substituting r = 1 back into the first equation:

a * 1^(3-1) = 1/4

a = 1/4

So, the first term is 1/4 and the common ratio is 1.

(ii) To find the seventh term, we can use the formula for the nth term of a G.P:

a_n = a * r^(n-1)

where a is the first term (1/4), r is the common ratio (1), and n is the term number (7).

a₇ = 1/4 * 1^(7-1) = 1/4 * 1⁶ = 1/4 * 64 = 16

So, the seventh term is 16.

(b) Given that 2 and -3 are the roots of the equation ax² + bx + c = 0, we can use the sum and product of the roots formula to find the values of a, b, and c:

The sum of the roots = -b/a

The product of the roots = c/a

Since we are given that the roots are 2 and -3, we can substitute:

The sum of the roots = 2 + (-3) = -1

The product of the roots = 2 * (-3) = -6

So:

-b/a = -1

c/a = -6

Multiplying both equations by a:

-b = -a

c = -6a

Since a is non-zero, we can divide both equations by -1 to simplify:

b = a

c = -6

(a) Ali and Yusif shared N420.000.00 in the ratio 3.,; 5 : 8 respectively. Find the sum of Ali and Yusuf's shares

(b) Solve: 2(\(\frac{1}{8}\))\(^x\) = 32\(^{x - 1}\). 
 

Maelezo ya Majibu

a) To find out the share of Ali and Yusuf:

To find the total ratio of the shares, we have 3 : 5 : 8, which simplifies to 3 : 13. We can then calculate the fraction of N420,000.00 each person received by dividing their share of the ratio by the total ratio.

For Ali, the fraction would be ³/₁₃ of N420,000.00. So, Ali received N420,000.00 * ³/₁₃ = N120,000.00.

For Yusuf, the fraction would be ⁵/₁₃ of N420,000.00. So, Yusuf received N420,000.00 * ⁵/₁₃ = N200,000.00.

The sum of Ali and Yusuf's shares is N120,000.00 + N200,000.00 = N320,000.00.

b) To solve the equation 2((1/8)^x) = 32^(x-1):

We need to isolate x on one side of the equation. To do this, we can take the logarithm base 8 of both sides of the equation.

The equation becomes: x = log₈(32^(x-1)) / log₈(2(1/8)^x).

To simplify the expression further, we can use the property of logarithms that log_b(a^c) = c log_b(a).

So, x = (x-1) log₈(32) / log₈(2) + log₈(1/8).

Solving for x, we find that x = 3.

(b) Two tanks A and B are filled to capacity with diesel. Tank A holds 600 litres diesel more than tank B. If 100 litres of diesel was pumped cut of each tank, tank A would then contain 3 times as much as tank B. Find the capacity of each tank.

Maelezo ya Majibu

(a)

In this problem, we have a circle with center O and two tangent lines, Rs and RT. The angles between these lines and the line connecting the center of the circle to the point of tangency are given as TUS = 68°, UTO = y, and SRT = x.

Since Rs and RT are tangent to the circle, the angle between the line connecting the center of the circle to the point of tangency and the line connecting the center of the circle to the point of tangency on the other line is equal to 90°.

Therefore, we have the following two equations:

UTO + TUS = 90° (angle sum in a semicircle)

SRT + TUS = 90° (angle sum in a semicircle)

Substituting the given values, we get:

y + 68° = 90°

and

x + 68° = 90°

Solving for x and y, we get:

x = 90° - 68° = 22°

y = 90° - 68° = 22°

Therefore, the value of x is 22°.

(b)

Let's call the capacity of tank A as "A" and the capacity of tank B as "B".

Given that:

A = B + 600 (tank A holds 600 litres more than tank B)

And, after pumping out 100 litres from each tank:

A - 100 = 3 (B - 100)

Substituting the first equation into the second equation, we get:

B + 500 = 3 (B - 100)

Expanding the second term on the right side, we get:

B + 500 = 3B - 300

Solving for B, we get:

2B = 800

B = 400

Therefore, the capacity of tank B is 400 litres.

And, using the first equation, we get:

A = B + 600 = 400 + 600 = 1000

Therefore, the capacity of tank A is 1000 litres.

 A woman bought 130 kg of tomatoes for 4452,000.00. She sold half of the tomatoes at a profit of 30%. The rest of the tomatoes began to go bad, she then reduced the selling price per kg by 12%. Calculate:

(a) the new selling price per kg;

(ii) the percentage profit on the entire sales if she threw away 5 kg of bad tomatoes.

Maelezo ya Majibu

(a) Let's first find the cost per kilogram of the tomatoes:

Cost per kilogram = Total cost / Total weight
Cost per kilogram = 4452,000.00 / 130 kg
Cost per kilogram = 34,246.15

Now let's find the selling price per kilogram for the first half of the tomatoes, which were sold at a 30% profit:

Profit = Selling price - Cost price
30% of Cost price = 0.3 * 34,246.15 = 10,273.85
Selling price = Cost price + Profit
Selling price = 34,246.15 + 10,273.85 = 44,520.00
Selling price per kilogram = Selling price / (130 kg / 2)
Selling price per kilogram = 44,520.00 / 65 kg
Selling price per kilogram = 684.92

Now let's find the new selling price per kilogram for the remaining tomatoes, which were sold at a 12% discount:

Discount = Selling price before discount - Selling price after discount
12% of Selling price before discount = 0.12 * Selling price before discount
Selling price after discount = Selling price before discount - 0.12 * Selling price before discount
Selling price after discount = 0.88 * Selling price before discount
Selling price per kilogram = Selling price after discount / (130 kg / 2)
Selling price per kilogram = 0.88 * Selling price before discount / (130 kg / 2)
Selling price per kilogram = 0.44 * Selling price before discount / 65
Selling price per kilogram = 0.44 * 684.92 / 65
Selling price per kilogram = 4.63

(ii) If 5 kg of tomatoes were thrown away, then the total weight sold would be 125 kg. Let's calculate the total revenue:

Revenue = Selling price per kilogram * Total weight sold
Revenue = (684.92 * 65 / 2) + (4.63 * 60)
Revenue = 22,303.80

The cost of the tomatoes was 4452,000.00, and since the revenue was less than that, there was a loss. Let's calculate the percentage loss:

Loss = Cost - Revenue
Loss = 4452,000.00 - 22,303.80
Loss = 4429,696.20
Percentage loss = (Loss / Cost) * 100
Percentage loss = (4429,696.20 / 4452,000.00) * 100
Percentage loss = 99.5%

So the percentage profit on the entire sales was -99.5%, which means there was a loss of 99.5%.

(\(\alpha\)) 4x\(^2\) - 8x = 3;

(\(\beta\)) 4x\(^2\) - 7x - 21 = 0

Maelezo ya Majibu

I'm sorry, I'm an AI language model and I don't have the ability to draw graphs. However, I can help you complete the table of values and explain how to find the solution sets for the given equations.

For part (a), to complete the table of values, you need to substitute each value of x in the equation y = 4x² - 8x - 21 and calculate the corresponding value of y.

For part (ii), to find the solution set for 4x² - 8x = 3, you can isolate x by adding 8x to both sides and then dividing both sides by 4. This gives you x² = x + 11/4. To find the solution set for 4x² - 7x - 21 = 0, you can factor the equation or use the quadratic formula to find the two roots.

In both cases, the solution set consists of the x-values that make the equation true. These x-values can then be plotted on the graph to find the corresponding y-values.

a) A twenty - kilogram bag of rice is consumed by m number of boys in 10 days. When four more boys joined them, the same quantity of rice lasted only 8 days. If the rate of consumption is the same, find the value of m.

(b) If \(\frac{5}{6}\) of a number is 10 greater than \(\frac{1}{3}\) of it. find the number

(c) Find the equation of the line which passes through the points (2, \(\frac{1}{2}\)) and (-1, -\(\frac{1}{2}\)
 

Maelezo ya Majibu

a) Let's assume that one boy consumes x kilograms of rice per day. Then, we can write the equation as follows:

10mx = 20 (since m boys consume the rice in 10 days)

(10m+4)(x) = 20 (since 4 more boys joined and the same amount of rice lasted for 8 days)

Simplifying the equations, we get:

mx = 2

(10m+4)(x) = 2(10m)(8)

Dividing the second equation by the first equation, we get:

10m+4 = 4(80)

10m = 316

m = 31.6

Since the number of boys has to be a whole number, we can round up to m=32.

b) Let's assume that the number is represented by n. Then, we can write the equation as follows:

\(\frac{5}{6}\)n = \(\frac{1}{3}\)n + 10

Multiplying both sides by 6 to eliminate the fractions, we get:

5n = 2n + 60

3n = 60

n = 20

c) We can find the equation of the line passing through two points using the slope-intercept form: y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. To find the slope, we use the formula: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the coordinates of the two points given.

m = (-1/2 - 1/2) / (-1 - 2) = -1/3

Now, we can use either of the two points to find the y-intercept. Let's use (2, 1/2):

1/2 = (-1/3)(2) + b

b = 5/6

Therefore, the equation of the line is y = (-1/3)x + 5/6.

(b) Simplify \(\frac{15}{\sqrt{75}} + \(\sqrt{108}\) + \(\sqrt{432}\), leaving the answer in the form a\(\sqrt{b}\), where a and b are positive integers.
 

Maelezo ya Majibu

a) To find the value of x, we need to convert the numbers in the expression from different number systems to a common number system, in this case, base 10.

110_x is a number in base x, so to convert it to base 10, we need to evaluate the expression:

110_x = 1 * x² + 1 * x + 0 = x² + x

40_five is a number in base 5, so to convert it to base 10, we need to evaluate the expression:

40_five = 4 * 5¹ + 0 * 5⁰ = 20

So, the expression 110_x - 40_five becomes:

x² + x - 20 = 0

We can solve for x by using the quadratic formula or by factoring the equation.

Using the quadratic formula, we get:

x = (-1 ± √(1² - 4 * 1 * -20)) / (2 * 1)

x = (-1 ± √(1 + 80)) / 2

x = (-1 ± 9) / 2

So, the two solutions are:

x = (8 - 9) / 2 = -0.5

x = (8 + 9) / 2 = 8.5

Since x must be a positive integer, the only possible solution is x = 8.

b) To simplify the expression, we need to simplify each term inside the parenthesis separately.

First, we simplify the fraction:

15 / √75 = 15 / √(3² * 5²) = 15 / (3 * 5) = 15 / 15 = 1

Next, we simplify the square root terms:

√108 = √(2² * 3³) = √(2² * 3² * 3) = 3 * 3 = 9

√432 = √(2⁴ * 3³) = √(2² * 2² * 3³) = 6 * 3 = 18

So, the expression becomes:

1 + 9 + 18 = 28

Therefore, the simplified expression is 28, which is not in the form a√b where a and b are positive integers.

(a) Since \(\overline{RT}\) and \(\overline{RU}\) are tangent to the circle, \(\angle TRU\) is equal to the angle between the radii drawn to the points of tangency. Therefore, \(\angle TRU = \angle TRO = 90^{\circ}\).

Also, since \(\overline{RT}\) is tangent to the circle, \(\angle SRT\) is equal to the angle between the tangent and the chord \(\overline{ST}\). Therefore, \(\angle SRT = \angle OTU\).

Finally, since the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180^{\circ}, we have:

\[\angle TUS + \angle SRT + \angle UTO = 180^{\circ}\]

\[68^{\circ} + x + y = 180^{\circ}\]

\[x = 112^{\circ} - y\]

Therefore, the value of x is 112^{\circ} - y.

(b) Let the capacity of tank B be x litres. Then, the capacity of tank A is x+600 litres.

After 100 litres of diesel is pumped out of each tank, tank B has (x-100) litres of diesel and tank A has (x+500) litres of diesel. Since tank A has three times as much diesel as tank B, we can set up the following equation:

\[(x+500) = 3(x-100)\]

Expanding the right-hand side gives:

\[x + 500 = 3x - 300\]

Simplifying and solving for x gives:

\[x = 400\]

Therefore, the capacity of tank B is 400 litres and the capacity of tank A is x+600 = 1000 litres.
