Question 42 Report

Find the area of the figure given

12.5cm2

75.0cm2

78.5cm2

84.8cm2

Answer Details

Area of semicircle + Area of rectangle

A = $\frac{1}{2} π r^{2}$ + LB

A = $\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{22}{77} \times (\frac{5}{2})^{2} + (15 \times 5)$

= $\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{22}{7} \times \frac{25}{4} + 75$

A = $\frac{275}{28} + \frac{75}{1}$

$\frac{275 + 2100}{28} = \frac{2375}{28}$

A = 84.8cm2

Question 44 Report

Calculate the distance between points L(-1, -6) and M(-3, -5)

√5

2√3

√20

√50

Answer Details

L

(\begin{matrix} x_{1} & y_{1} \\ - 1 & - 6 \end{matrix})

m L

(\begin{matrix} x_{2} & y_{2} \\ - 3 & - 5 \end{matrix})

D =

\sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1})^{2}}

D =

\sqrt{(- 3 - (- 1)^{2} + (- 5 - (- 6)^{2}}

D =

\sqrt{(- 3 + 1)^{2} + (- 5 + 6)^{2}}

D =

\sqrt{(- 2)^{2} + 1^{2}}

D =

\sqrt{4 + 1}

D =

\sqrt{5}

Question 45 Report

If p = varies inversely as the square of q and p=8 when q=4, find when p=32

+/-16

+/-8

+/-4

+/-2

Answer Details

P ∝ 1/q
P = k/q
K = q2P
= 428
∴P = 128/q
32 = 128/q
q2 = 128/32
q2 = 4
q = √4 = +/-2

Evaluate $ \int_{1}^{2} (6x^{2} - 2x)\,dx $

16

13

12

11

Answer Details

\int_{1}^{2} (6 x^{2} - 2 x) d x = [\frac{6 x^{3}}{3} - \frac{2 x^{2}}{2}]_{1}^{2} = [2 x^{3} - x^{2}]_{1}^{2}

= [2(2)3 - (2)2] – [2(1)3 - (1)2]
= [16-4] – [2-1]
= 12 – 1
= 11
