Question 21

Find the value of t for which (\(\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}\))\(^{t - 1}\) = 64
Show explanation Expand Question

Express both sides with the same base (base 2):\[ (2^{-1})^{t-1} = 2^{6} \]\[ 2^{-t+1} = 2^{6} \]Equating the powers:\[ -t + 1 = 6 \]\[ -t = 6 - 1 = 5 \]\[ t = -5 \]

Question 22

If 54\(_{ten}\) = X\(_{four}\), find the value of X
Show explanation Expand Question

Divide 54 by 4 repeatedly and record the remainders:\[ \begin{array}{r|l}
\text{Divide} & \text{Remainder} \\ \hline
54 \div 4 = 13 & 2 \\
13 \div 4 = 3 & 1 \\
3 \div 4 = 0 & 3 \\
\end{array}

Question 23

Integrate the function y = 3x\(^{2}\) + 2x - 5 with respect to x.
Show explanation Expand Question

Using \(\displaystyle \int x^{n} dx = \displaystyle \frac{x^{n+1}}{n+1}\):\[ \displaystyle \int (3x^{2} + 2x - 5) dx = \displaystyle \frac{3x^{3}}{3} + \displaystyle \frac{2x^{2}}{2} - 5x + C \]\[ = x^{3} + x^{2} - 5x + C \]

Question 24

Express \(\sqrt[4]{0.16}\) in standard form
Show explanation Expand Question

First, express 0.16 as a fraction or power: \(0.16 = 16 \times 10^{-2}\).\[ \sqrt[4]{16 \times 10^{-2}} = (16)^{1/4} \times (10^{-2})^{1/4} \]\[ = 2 \times 10^{-2/4} = 2 \times 10^{-1/2} \]

Question 25

Solve x\(^{2}\) + 3x - 4 ≤ 0
Show explanation Expand Question

Factorize the quadratic:\[ (x + 4)(x - 1) \le 0 \]The critical values are \(x = -4\) and \(x = 1\). For the expression to be less than or equal to zero, \(x\) must lie between the roots.\[ -4 \le x \le 1 \]

Question 26

Solve for y in \(\sqrt{75} - \sqrt{12} + \sqrt{27} = y\sqrt{3}\)
Show explanation Expand Question

Simplify each surd:
\(\sqrt{75} = \sqrt{25 \times 3} = 5\sqrt{3}\)
\(\sqrt{12} = \sqrt{4 \times 3} = 2\sqrt{3}\)
\(\sqrt{27} = \sqrt{9 \times 3} = 3\sqrt{3}\)
\[ 5\sqrt{3} - 2\sqrt{3} + 3\sqrt{3} = 6\sqrt{3} \]Comparing to \(y\sqrt{3}\), \(y = 6\).

Question 27

If cos \(\theta\) = \(\displaystyle \frac{x}{y}\), find tan \(\theta\) in terms of x and y
Show explanation Expand Question

Given \(\cos \theta = \text{Adj}/\text{Hyp} = x/y\).
By Pythagoras, \(\text{Opposite} = \sqrt{\text{Hyp}^{2} - \text{Adj}^{2}} = \sqrt{y^{2} - x^{2}}\).
\(\tan \theta = \text{Opposite}/\text{Adjacent} = \displaystyle \frac{\sqrt{y^{2} - x^{2}}}{x}\).

Question 28

Given that \(P = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 3 \\ 2 & -5 \end{pmatrix}\) and Q = \(\begin{pmatrix} 3 & -7 \\ 1 & 2 \end{pmatrix}\) . Find P + 2Q
Show explanation Expand Question
\[ 2Q = \begin{pmatrix} 6 & -14 \\ 2 & 4 \end{pmatrix} \]\[ P + 2Q = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 3 \\ 2 & -5 \end{pmatrix} + \begin{pmatrix} 6 & -14 \\ 2 & 4 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 1+6 & 3-14 \\ 2+2 & -5+4 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 7 & -11 \\ 4 & -1 \end{pmatrix} \]

Question 29

Pie chart showing: Teachers (150 degrees), Farmers (120 degrees), and Doctors.
The figure above is a pie chart. Use it to find in degrees those who are doctors
Show explanation Expand Question
The pie chart represents a full circle of \(360^\circ\).
The total number of people is 16 (Doctors) + 8 (Engineers) + 24 (Lawyers) + 21  (Information Technologists) + 27 (Teachers) = 96
The fraction of the circle for doctors is \( \dfrac{16}{96}\)
Hence, the angle representing doctors in the pie chart is\[ \text{Angle for doctors} = \frac{16}{96} \times 360^\circ\]\[ = 60^\circ\]

Question 30

Venn diagram with three sets P, Q, and R. The shaded region is inside the overlap of P and Q, but only where it intersects with R.
In the Venn diagram above, the shaded region is
Show explanation Expand Question

The Venn diagram has three overlapping circles labeled P, Q, and R.

The shaded region has cross-hatching and covers only the part that belongs to Q but not to P or R (the exclusive part of Q outside the overlaps with P and R).

In set notation, the shaded region is \( Q \cap (P \cup R)^c \)
