The volume of a cube is 512cm3. Find the length of its side
Bayanin Amsa
To find the length of a side of a cube, we need to take the cube root of its volume. Given that the volume of the cube is 512cm³, we have: side³ = volume side³ = 512cm³ Taking the cube root of both sides, we get: side = ∛(512cm³) side = 8cm Therefore, the length of the side of the cube is 8cm. Answer: Option (C) 8cm

Simplify 10\(\frac{2}{5} - 6 \frac{2}{3} + 3\)
Bayanin Amsa
To simplify the expression 10\(\frac{2}{5} - 6 \frac{2}{3} + 3\), we first need to convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions. 10\(\frac{2}{5}\) can be written as \(\frac{52}{5}\) and 6\(\frac{2}{3}\) can be written as \(\frac{20}{3}\). So, the expression becomes: \begin{align*} 10\frac{2}{5} - 6 \frac{2}{3} + 3 &= \frac{52}{5} - \frac{20}{3} + 3\\ &= \frac{156}{15} - \frac{100}{15} + \frac{45}{15}\\ &= \frac{101}{15} \end{align*} Therefore, the simplified expression is 6\(\frac{11}{15}\). Hence, the correct option is: \boxed{2. 6\frac{11}{15}}

Each exterior angle of a polygon is 30o. Calculate the sum of the interior angles
Bayanin Amsa
The sum of the exterior angles of a polygon is always 360 degrees. Therefore, if each exterior angle is 30 degrees, the polygon must have 360/30 = 12 sides. The formula to find the sum of interior angles of a polygon is (n-2) x 180 degrees, where n is the number of sides. Substituting n = 12 into the formula, we get: (12-2) x 180 = 10 x 180 = 1800 degrees Therefore, the sum of the interior angles of this polygon is 1800 degrees. So the correct option is 1800o.

\(\begin{array}{c|c}height & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 \\ \hline frequency & 2 & 4 & 5 & 3 & 1
\end{array}\)
The table shows the distribution of the height of plants in a nursery. Calculate the mean height of the plants.
Bayanin Amsa
To calculate the mean height of the plants, we need to first find the sum of all the heights and divide it by the total number of plants. We can do this using the formula: mean = (sum of all heights) / (total number of plants) To find the sum of all the heights, we need to multiply each height by its corresponding frequency and add up the results. So, the sum of all heights = (2 x 2) + (3 x 4) + (4 x 5) + (5 x 3) + (6 x 1) = 4 + 12 + 20 + 15 + 6 = 57 The total number of plants is the sum of all the frequencies: 2 + 4 + 5 + 3 + 1 = 15. Therefore, the mean height of the plants = 57 / 15 = 3.8. Hence, the answer is 3.8.

Make u the subject of formula, E = \(\frac{m}{2g}\)(v2 - u2)
Bayanin Amsa
The formula we want to solve for u is E = (m/2g)(v^2 - u^2).
To make u the subject of the formula, we need to isolate u on one side of the equation by performing the necessary algebraic operations.
First, we'll simplify the right side of the equation:
E = (m/2g)(v^2 - u^2)
2gE/m = v^2 - u^2 // Multiply both sides by 2g/m
Next, we'll isolate u^2 by adding it to both sides of the equation:
2gE/m + u^2 = v^2
Finally, we'll solve for u by taking the square root of both sides of the equation:
u = sqrt(v^2 - 2gE/m)
Therefore, the value of u as the subject of the formula is:
u = sqrt(v^2 - 2gE/m)
Option A is the correct answer.

If a number is selected at random from each of the sets p = {1, 2, 3} and Q = {2, 3, 5}, find the probability that the sum of the numbers is prime
Bayanin Amsa
To find the probability that the sum of the numbers is prime, we need to first determine all the possible sums of numbers from sets P and Q. The elements in set P are {1, 2, 3}, and the elements in set Q are {2, 3, 5}. To find all the possible sums, we can create a table of sums by adding each element of set P to each element of set Q: | | 2 | 3 | 5 | |---|---|---|---| | 1 | 3 | 4 | 6 | | 2 | 4 | 5 | 7 | | 3 | 5 | 6 | 8 | From this table, we see that there are nine possible sums. To determine which of these sums are prime, we can simply check each one: - 3: Not prime - 4: Not prime - 5: Prime - 6: Not prime - 7: Prime - 8: Not prime - 9: Not prime - 10: Not prime - 11: Prime So, there are three possible sums that are prime: 5, 7, and 11. Therefore, the probability that the sum of the numbers is prime is: $$\frac{\text{number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{total number of possible outcomes}} = \frac{3}{9} = \frac{1}{3}$$ Therefore, the answer is option (C) \(\frac{1}{3}\).

A box contains 13 currency notes, all of which are either N50 or N20 notes. The total value of the currency notes is N530. How many N50 notes are in the box?
Bayanin Amsa
Let's assume that there are x N50 notes and y N20 notes in the box. From the problem, we know that the total number of currency notes is 13, so we have: x + y = 13 ----(1) We also know that the total value of the currency notes is N530. If we express this in terms of the number of N50 and N20 notes, we get: 50x + 20y = 530 ----(2) We now have two equations (1) and (2) with two variables (x and y), which we can solve simultaneously. Multiplying equation (1) by 20, we get: 20x + 20y = 260 Subtracting this equation from equation (2), we get: 30x = 270 Dividing both sides by 30, we get: x = 9 Therefore, there are 9 N50 notes in the box. Answer: 9

The area of a sector a circle with diameter 12cm is 66cm2. If the sector is folded to form a cone, calculate the radius of the base of the cone [Take \(\pi = \frac{22}{7}\)]
Bayanin Amsa
The area of a sector of a circle is given by the formula: A = (θ/360)πr^2 where A is the area of the sector, θ is the angle of the sector in degrees, r is the radius of the circle. Let's first find the radius of the circle. The diameter of the circle is given as 12 cm. Therefore, the radius is half of the diameter, i.e., r = 12/2 = 6 cm. The area of the sector is given as 66 cm^2. Therefore, 66 = (θ/360)π(6^2) 66 = (θ/360)π(36) 66 = (θ/10)π θ = (660/π) × 10/360 θ = 18.86° (approx.) Now, we can use the radius of the circle and the angle of the sector to find the slant height (l) of the cone: l = √(r^2 + h^2), where h is the height of the cone. The lateral area of the cone (i.e., the curved surface area) is half the area of the sector: L = (1/2)A = (1/2) × 66 = 33 cm^2 The slant height of the cone is given by: l = L/r = 33/6 = 5.5 cm We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the height of the cone: h = √(l^2 - r^2) = √(5.5^2 - 6^2) = √(30.25 - 36) = √5.75 Therefore, the height of the cone is h = 2.4 cm (approx.). Finally, we can use the formula for the volume of a cone to find the radius of the base: V = (1/3)πr^2h We know the volume of the cone is equal to the area of the sector: V = A = (θ/360)πr^2 = (18.86/360) × π × r^2 Therefore, (1/3)πr^2h = (18.86/360) × π × r^2 h = (18.86/360) × 3 r^2 = (3/π) × (360/18.86) × 66 r = √((3/π) × (360/18.86) × 66) = 3.5 cm (approx.) Hence, the radius of the base of the cone is 3.5 cm. Therefore, the correct option is (b) 3.5cm.

The graph given is for the relation y = 2x2 + x - 1. Find the minimum value of y
Bayanin Amsa
To find the minimum value of y for the given relation y = 2x^2 + x - 1, we need to locate the vertex of the parabolic graph. The vertex of a parabola with equation y = ax^2 + bx + c is given by the coordinates (-b/2a, c - b^2/4a). In this case, a = 2, b = 1, and c = -1. Substituting these values into the formula, we get: Vertex x-coordinate = -b/2a = -1/(2*2) = -1/4 Vertex y-coordinate = 2(-1/4)^2 + (1/4) - 1 = -1.25 Therefore, the minimum value of y is -1.25. So the correct option is (C) -1.25.

Given that cos x = \(\frac{12}{13}\), evaluate \(\frac{1 - \tan x}{\tan x}\)
Bayanin Amsa
We can use trigonometric identities to evaluate the expression. We know that: - $\tan x = \frac{\sin x}{\cos x}$. - $\sin^2x + \cos^2x = 1$. We can use the second identity to find $\sin x$: $$\begin{aligned} \sin^2x + \cos^2x &= 1 \\ \sin^2x &= 1 - \cos^2x \\ \sin x &= \sqrt{1 - \cos^2x} \\ &= \sqrt{1 - \left(\frac{12}{13}\right)^2} \\ &= \frac{5}{13} \end{aligned}$$ Now we can substitute $\sin x$ and $\cos x$ into the expression we need to evaluate: $$\begin{aligned} \frac{1 - \tan x}{\tan x} &= \frac{1 - \frac{\sin x}{\cos x}}{\frac{\sin x}{\cos x}} \\ &= \frac{\cos x - \sin x}{\sin x} \\ &= \frac{\frac{12}{13} - \frac{5}{13}}{\frac{5}{13}} \\ &= \frac{7}{5} \end{aligned}$$ Therefore, the answer is $\frac{7}{5}$.

A chord, 7cm long, is drawn in a circle with radius 3.7cm. Calculate the distance of the chord from the centre of the circle
Bayanin Amsa
To find the distance of the chord from the center of the circle, we can use the formula: distance from center = √(r^2 - (c/2)^2) where r is the radius of the circle and c is the length of the chord. In this case, r = 3.7 cm and c = 7 cm. Therefore: distance from center = √(3.7^2 - (7/2)^2) = √(13.69 - 12.25) = √1.44 = 1.2 cm Therefore, the distance of the chord from the center of the circle is 1.2 cm. The logic behind the formula is that the distance from the center of the circle to the chord is the perpendicular distance from the center to the line that contains the chord. If we draw radii from the center of the circle to the endpoints of the chord, we can form a right triangle with the chord as the hypotenuse. The distance from the center to the chord is the height of this triangle, which can be found using the Pythagorean theorem.

The ship starts at the point marked "W", then sails east to reach the point marked "E". The distance between W and E is x km. Then the ship sails north from E to reach the point marked "F". The distance between E and F is also x km.
We want to find the bearing of F from W. This is the angle that the line segment WF makes with the north-south line, measured in a clockwise direction.
Let's call the point where the north-south line intersects the line WE as point G. Then we have a right triangle WGE, where WG is the distance travelled east by the ship, and GE is the distance travelled north. The angle WGE is the bearing we're looking for.
From the right triangle WGE, we can use trigonometry to find the angle WGE:
tan(WGE) = opposite / adjacent = GE / WG = x / x = 1
Taking the arctan of both sides, we get:
WGE = arctan(1) = 45 degrees
Therefore, the bearing of F from W is 045 degrees. Answer: (a) 045o.

Find the gradient of the line joining the points (2, -3) and 2, 5)
Bayanin Amsa
To find the gradient of the line joining two points, we use the formula: Gradient = (change in y) / (change in x) We can calculate the change in y by subtracting the y-coordinate of one point from the y-coordinate of the other point, and similarly, we can calculate the change in x by subtracting the x-coordinate of one point from the x-coordinate of the other point. In this case, the two points are (2, -3) and (2, 5). The change in y is: 5 - (-3) = 8 The change in x is: 2 - 2 = 0 Since the change in x is 0, we cannot divide by it, and the gradient is undefined. This means that the line joining these two points is vertical and has no slope. Therefore, the correct answer is: undefined.

F x varies inversely as y and y varies directly as Z, what is the relationship between x and z?
Bayanin Amsa
The statement "F x varies inversely as y" can be mathematically written as x = k/y, where k is the constant of proportionality. Similarly, "y varies directly as Z" can be written as y = kz, where k is again the constant of proportionality. Substituting y in the first equation, we get x = k/(kz), which simplifies to x = 1/z. Therefore, we can conclude that x varies inversely with z, which is mathematically represented as x \(\alpha\) 1/z. So, the correct answer is: x \(\alpha \frac{1}{z}\).

Three quarters of a number added to two and a half of the number gives 13. Find the number
Bayanin Amsa
Let's assume the number we are looking for to be 'x'. According to the problem statement, three quarters of the number can be written as \(\frac{3}{4}x\) and two and a half of the number can be written as \(2.5x\). It is given that the sum of these two quantities gives 13. So we can write it as: \(\frac{3}{4}x + 2.5x = 13\) Now, we can simplify this equation by combining the two terms on the left-hand side: \(\frac{3}{4}x + 2.5x = 13\) \(\Rightarrow \frac{3}{4}x + \frac{10}{4}x = 13\) \(\Rightarrow \frac{13}{4}x = 13\) \(\Rightarrow x = \frac{13 \times 4}{13}\) \(\Rightarrow x = 4\) Therefore, the number we are looking for is 4. Hence, the answer is 4.

Bayanin Amsa
To solve this problem, we need to follow the given operations in order of precedence, i.e., first we have to find the complement of y, then union it with z and finally find the intersection of x with the resulting set. The complement of y (denoted by Y') is the set of all elements in u that are not in y. So, Y' = {0, 5, 6}. The union of Y' and Z (denoted by Y' \(\cup\) Z) is the set of all elements that are in Y' or Z or both. So, Y' \(\cup\) Z = {0, 1, 3, 5, 6}. Finally, the intersection of x with Y' \(\cup\) Z (denoted by x \(\cap\) (Y' \(\cup\) Z)) is the set of all elements that are in both x and Y' \(\cup\) Z. So, x \(\cap\) (Y' \(\cup\) Z) = {0, 6}. Therefore, the answer is {0, 6}.

If 23x = 325, find the value of x
Bayanin Amsa
To find the value of x, we need to determine what base value the number 23x represents. We are told that 23x is equal to 325. In other words, the value represented by 23x is equal to the value represented by 325. We can convert 325 to base 10 to get: 325 = (3 x 51) + (2 x 50) = 15 + 2 = 17 So, we have: 23x = 17 To find the value of x, we need to determine what base value raised to what power is equal to 17. We can do this by trying different values of x. If x is 2, then 232 = (2 x 21) + (3 x 20) = 4 + 3 = 7 If x is 3, then 233 = (2 x 31) + (3 x 30) = 6 + 3 = 9 If x is 4, then 234 = (2 x 41) + (3 x 40) = 8 + 3 = 11 If x is 5, then 235 = (2 x 51) + (3 x 50) = 10 + 3 = 13 If x is 6, then 236 = (2 x 61) + (3 x 60) = 12 + 3 = 15 If x is 7, then 237 = (2 x 71) + (3 x 70) = 14 + 3 = 17 So, we have found that if x is 7, then 23x = 17, which matches the value of 325. Therefore, the value of x is 7. Answer: 7

To find the coordinates of point S on the graph, we need to use the equation of the graph, which is given as y = 2x^2 + x - 1. From the graph, we can see that the point S has x-coordinate of 1. To find the y-coordinate, we can substitute x=1 into the equation and solve for y: y = 2(1)^2 + (1) - 1 y = 2 + 1 - 1 y = 2 Therefore, the coordinates of point S are (1, 2). So, the answer is (c) (1, 2.0).

Bayanin Amsa
Let's start by using the fact that PQR is a straight line, which means that m + n + r = 180°. We can then use the given information to form two equations and solve for m + r. From (m + n) = 120°, we can substitute n = 120° - m to get: (m + 120° - m + r) = 180° r + 120° = 180° r = 60° From (n + r) = 100°, we can substitute n = 120° - m and r = 60° to get: (120° - m + 60°) = 100° m = 80° Finally, we can find m + r by adding m and r: m + r = 80° + 60° = 140° Therefore, the answer is 140°.

The radii of the base of two cylindrical tins, P and Q are r and 2r respectively. If the water level in p is 10cm high, would be the height of the same quantity of water in Q?
Bayanin Amsa
The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula V = πr²h, where r is the radius of the base of the cylinder and h is the height of the cylinder. The volume of the water in tin P is VP = πr²hP, where r is the radius of the base of tin P and hP is the height of the water in tin P. The volume of the same quantity of water in tin Q is VQ = π(2r)²hQ = 4πr²hQ, where 2r is the radius of the base of tin Q and hQ is the height of the water in tin Q. Since the same quantity of water is in both tins, VP = VQ. Substituting the expression for VP and VQ into the equation VP = VQ gives πr²hP = 4πr²hQ, which simplifies to hQ = hP/4. Therefore, the height of the water in tin Q is one-fourth of the height of the water in tin P. Since the height of the water in tin P is 10cm, the height of the water in tin Q would be (10/4) cm = 2.5 cm. Therefore, the height of the same quantity of water in tin Q is 2.5 cm. Answer option (A) is the correct answer.

(a) Copy and complete the following table for multiplication modulo 11.
| \(\otimes\) | 1 | 5 | 9 | 10 |
| 1 | 1 | 5 | 9 | 10 |
| 5 | 5 | |||
| 9 | 9 | |||
| 10 | 10 |
Use the table to : (i) evaluate \((9 \otimes 5) \otimes (10 \otimes 10)\);
(ii) find the truth set of :(1) \(10 \otimes m = 2\); (2) \(n \otimes n = 4\)
(b) When a fraction is reduced to its lowest term, it is equal to \(\frac{3}{4}\). The numerator of the fraction when doubled would be 34 greater than the denominator. Find the fraction.
