A man bought a car newly for ₦1,250,000. He had a crash with the car and later sold it at the rate of ₦1,085,000. What is the percentage gain or loss of the man?

Awọn alaye Idahun

The man bought the car for ₦1,250,000 and later sold it at the rate of ₦1,085,000, which means he incurred a loss of ₦165,000 (1,250,000 - 1,085,000). To calculate the percentage loss, we divide the loss amount by the original cost and multiply by 100: ₦165,000 ÷ ₦1,250,000 * 100 = 13.2% So, the man incurred a loss of 13.2%.

If the 3rd and 7th terms of a G.P are 9 and 1/9 respectively. Find the common ratio.

Awọn alaye Idahun

Let's suppose that the first term of the GP is 'a' and the common ratio is 'r'. Then, using the given information, we can create the following equations: Third term: ar^2 = 9 ---(1) Seventh term: ar^6 = 1/9 ---(2) To find 'r', we can divide equation (2) by equation (1) as follows: (ar^6) / (ar^2) = (1/9) / 9 r^4 = 1/81 r = (1/81)^(1/4) r = 1/3 Therefore, the common ratio is 1/3.

If the volume of a frustrum is given as $V=\frac{\pi h}{3}(R^2+Rr+r^2)$, find $\frac{dV}{dR}$.

Awọn alaye Idahun

To find dV/dR, we need to take the derivative of V with respect to R, while treating all other variables as constants. Using the product rule of differentiation, we get: dV/dR = πh/3 [2R + r] Therefore, the answer is πh/3 [2R + r]. To understand this, we need to remember that the derivative of a function gives us the rate of change of the function. In this case, the volume of a frustrum is a function of its height (h) and radii (R and r). By taking the derivative of the volume with respect to one of the radii (R), we get the rate of change of the volume with respect to that radius. In other words, dV/dR tells us how much the volume changes for a small change in R, while holding h and r constant.

Evaluate $\frac{2{\log }_{3}9\times {\log }_3{81}^{-2}}{{\log }_{5}625}$

Awọn alaye Idahun

We can simplify the expression using the properties of logarithms. First, we can rewrite the expression as: 2log3(3^2) * log3(3^4) - 2log5(5^4) Using the power rule of logarithms, we can simplify the first term: 2log3(3^2) * log3(3^4) = 2(2) * 4 = 16 Using the power rule of logarithms again, we can simplify the second term: 2log5(5^4) = 8log5(5) = 8 Substituting these simplified terms back into the original expression, we get: 16 - 8 = 8 Therefore, the value of the expression is 8, which is option (C) in the given choices.

Find the value of k in the equation: $\sqrt{28}+\sqrt{112}-\sqrt{k}=\sqrt{175}$

Awọn alaye Idahun

To find the value of k, we need to isolate the variable on one side of the equation. Let's start by simplifying each of the square roots: √28 = √4 × √7 = 2√7 √112 = √16 × √7 = 4√7 √175 is already simplified, so we leave it as is. Now we can substitute these values into the original equation: 2√7 + 4√7 - √k = √175 Simplifying the left side, we get: 6√7 - √k = √175 Next, we'll isolate the radical term by moving the non-radical term to the other side: 6√7 = √k + √175 Squaring both sides to eliminate the radicals: (6√7)² = (√k + √175)² 36 × 7 = k + 2√k × √175 + 175 252 = k + 5√7√35 252 = k + 5√(7 × 35) 252 = k + 5√(5² × 7) 252 = k + 5 × 5√7 252 = k + 25√7 k = 252 - 25√7 Therefore, the value of k is 252 - 25√7.

If the universal set μ = {x : 1 ≤ x ≤ 20} and

A = {y : multiple of 3}

B = |z : odd numbers}

Find A ∩ B

Awọn alaye Idahun

To find A ∩ B, we need to find the elements that are common to both A and B. A = {y : multiple of 3} contains all the numbers that are multiples of 3 between 1 and 20. So, A = {3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18}. B = {z : odd numbers} contains all the odd numbers between 1 and 20. So, B = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19}. To find A ∩ B, we need to find the common elements of A and B. The common elements of A and B are 3, 9, and 15. Therefore, A ∩ B = {3, 9, 15}. So, option C - {3, 9, 15} is the correct answer.

If y = 8x${}^3$ - 3x${}^2$ + 7x - 1, find $\frac{d^{2}y}{d{x}^2}$.

Awọn alaye Idahun

To find d2y/dx2, we need to take the second derivative of y with respect to x. dy/dx = 24x^2 - 6x + 7 Taking the derivative of dy/dx, we get: d2y/dx2 = 48x - 6 Therefore, the answer is 48x - 6. To understand this, we need to remember that the second derivative of a function gives us the rate of change of the slope of the function. In this case, the first derivative of y gives us the slope of the function, and the second derivative gives us the rate of change of that slope.

Find the equation of the locus of a point A(x, y) which is equidistant from B(0, 2) and C(2, 1)

Awọn alaye Idahun

To find the locus of a point A that is equidistant from two given points B and C, we need to find the perpendicular bisector of the line segment joining B and C. The locus of point A will be the line that is perpendicular to the line segment BC and passes through the midpoint of BC. First, we need to find the midpoint of the line segment BC: Midpoint = ((0+2)/2, (2+1)/2) = (1, 1.5) The slope of the line segment BC is (1-2)/(2-0) = -1/2. The slope of a line perpendicular to this line is the negative reciprocal of the slope, which is 2. Using the point-slope form of a line with the midpoint (1, 1.5) and slope 2, we get: y - 1.5 = 2(x - 1) Simplifying the equation, we get: y = 2x - 2 + 1.5 y = 2x - 0.5 Therefore, the equation of the locus of point A that is equidistant from B(0, 2) and C(2, 1) is 4x - 2y = 1, which is option (C) in the given choices.

In the circle above, with centre O and radius 7 cm. Find the length of the arc AB, when < AOB = 57°.

Awọn alaye Idahun

The length of an arc in a circle can be found using the formula: Arc Length = (Angle Measure / 360) * (Circumference of Circle) The circumference of the circle can be found using the formula: Circumference = 2 * pi * radius So, first find the circumference of the circle: Circumference = 2 * pi * 7 = 14 * pi Next, find the angle measure in degrees in terms of pi: 57 degrees = 57 * pi / 180 radians Now, plug in the values into the formula for arc length: Arc Length = (57 * pi / 180) * (14 * pi) = (57 / 360) * (14 * pi) = (57 / 360) * (43.98) = 43.98 * (57 / 360) = (43.98 * 57) / 360 = 2493.86 / 360 = 6.97 cm So, the length of the arc AB is 6.97 cm.

In a committee of 5, which must be selected from 4 males and 3 females. In how many ways can the members be chosen if it were to include 2 females?

Awọn alaye Idahun

To select a committee of 5 members, including 2 females, we can break down the problem into the following steps: Step 1: Select 2 females from the 3 available females. This can be done in $\binom{3}{2} = 3$ ways. Here, $\binom{n}{r}$ denotes the number of ways to choose r items from a set of n items, also known as "n choose r". Step 2: Select 3 members from the remaining 4 males and 1 female. This can be done in $\binom{4}{3} \cdot \binom{1}{0} = 4$ ways. Here, we choose 3 males from the 4 available males, and 0 females from the 1 remaining female. Step 3: Multiply the results of Steps 1 and 2 to obtain the total number of ways to choose the committee. Therefore, the total number of ways to select a committee of 5 members, including 2 females, is: $\binom{3}{2} \cdot \binom{4}{3} \cdot \binom{1}{0} = 3 \cdot 4 \cdot 1 = 12$ Hence, there are 12 ways to choose the members of the committee. Therefore, the answer is 12 ways.

Awọn alaye Idahun

${25}^{1-x}\times 5^{x+2}÷(\frac{1}{125}{)}^x={625}^{-1}$
$(5^2{)}^{(1-x)}\times 5^{(x+2)}÷(5^{-3}{)}^x=(5^4{)}^{-1}$
$5^{2-2x}\times 5^{x+2}÷5^{-3x}=5^{-4}$
$5^{(2-2x)+(x+2)-(-3x)}=5^{-4}$
Equating bases, we have
$2-2x+x+2+3x=-4$
$4+2x=-4⟹2x=-4-4$
$2x=-8$
$x=-4$

If M varies directly as N and inversely as the root of P. Given that M = 3, N = 5 and P = 25. Find the value of P when M = 2 and N = 6.

Awọn alaye Idahun

The problem tells us that "M varies directly as N and inversely as the root of P". This means that M is directly proportional to N and inversely proportional to the square root of P, which can be written mathematically as: M = k(N / sqrt(P)) where k is a constant of proportionality. We can solve for k by using the given values of M, N, and P. When M = 3, N = 5, and P = 25, we can plug these values into the equation above and solve for k: 3 = k(5 / sqrt(25)) 3 = k(5 / 5) 3 = k So, we have found that k = 3. Now, we can use this value of k to find P when M = 2 and N = 6. We can rearrange the equation above to solve for P: M = k(N / sqrt(P)) sqrt(P) = k(N / M) P = (k(N / M))^2 Plugging in k = 3, N = 6, and M = 2, we get: P = (3(6 / 2))^2 P = 9(3)^2 P = 81 Therefore, the value of P when M = 2 and N = 6 is 81. So, option D is the correct answer.

Determine the values for which $x^2-7x+10\le 0$

Awọn alaye Idahun

To determine the values of x that satisfy x² - 7x + 10 ≤ 0, we need to find the roots of the quadratic equation x² - 7x + 10 = 0 and then analyze the behavior of the quadratic function. To find the roots, we can use the quadratic formula: x = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac)) / 2a In this case, a = 1, b = -7, and c = 10, so: x = (-(-7) ± √((-7)² - 4(1)(10))) / 2(1) x = (7 ± √9) / 2 x1 = 5 and x2 = 2 The roots of the equation are x = 5 and x = 2. Now, we need to analyze the behavior of the quadratic function in the intervals between the roots and to the left and right of the roots. We can do this by creating a sign chart: Interval | x² - 7x + 10 --------------------------------- (-∞, 2) | + (2, 5) | - (5, +∞) | + In the interval (-∞, 2), the quadratic function is positive because all the factors are positive. In the interval (2, 5), the function is negative because x - 2 is negative and x - 5 is positive. In the interval (5, +∞), the function is positive again because both factors are positive. Therefore, the solution to the inequality x² - 7x + 10 ≤ 0 is the interval [2, 5], because the function is non-positive in that interval and positive elsewhere. In interval notation, we can write: 2 ≤ x ≤ 5 So the correct answer is: 2 ≤ x ≤ 5.

A factory worker earns ₦50,000 per month out of which he spends 15% on his children's education, ₦13,600 on Food, 3% on electricity and uses the rest for his personal purpose. How much does he have left?

Awọn alaye Idahun

The factory worker earns ₦50,000 per month. He spends 15% of his income on his children's education. 15% of ₦50,000 = (15/100) x ₦50,000 = ₦7,500 He spends ₦13,600 on food. He spends 3% of his income on electricity. 3% of ₦50,000 = (3/100) x ₦50,000 = ₦1,500 Therefore, the total amount he spends on education, food and electricity is: ₦7,500 + ₦13,600 + ₦1,500 = ₦22,600 To find out how much he has left for personal purposes, we subtract the total amount he spends from his income. ₦50,000 - ₦22,600 = ₦27,400 Therefore, he has ₦27,400 left for his personal purpose. So the answer is N27,400.

If $P=(\frac{Q(R-T)}{15}{)}^{\frac{1}{3}}$, make T the subject of the formula.

Awọn alaye Idahun

To isolate T on one side of the equation, we need to undo each operation that has been performed on T. To do this, we have to work backwards through the equation. Starting with the equation: P=(Q(R−T)15)13, - We will first undo the exponent operation (13), by taking the 13th root of both sides: P^(1/13) = (Q(R−T)15)^(1/13) - Then, we will undo the multiplication operation (15), by dividing both sides by 15: P^(1/13)/15 = (Q(R−T))^(1/13) - Next, we will undo the parenthesis operation, by multiplying both sides by (R−T): (P^(1/13)/15)(R−T) = Q - Finally, we will undo the subtraction operation (R−T), by adding T to both sides: T = R − (Q * 15 * (P^(1/13))) So the final answer is: T=R−15P3Q

Find the value of x and y in the simultaneous equation: 3x + y = 21; xy = 30

Awọn alaye Idahun

To solve this system of equations, we can use substitution or elimination. Here's how to use substitution: From the first equation, we can rearrange it to solve for y in terms of x: 3x + y = 21 y = 21 - 3x Then we can substitute this expression for y into the second equation: xy = 30 x(21 - 3x) = 30 Expanding the left side: 21x - 3x^2 = 30 Rearranging and factoring: 3x^2 - 21x + 30 = 0 Dividing by 3: x^2 - 7x + 10 = 0 This quadratic equation can be factored as: (x - 2)(x - 5) = 0 So the possible values of x are 2 and 5. To find the corresponding values of y, we can substitute each value of x into the expression we found for y: When x = 2: y = 21 - 3(2) = 15 When x = 5: y = 21 - 3(5) = 6 Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is: x = 2 or 5, y = 15 or 6 So the correct option is: - x = 2 or 5, y = 15 or 6

Find the distance between the points C(2, 2) and D(5, 6).

Awọn alaye Idahun

To find the distance between two points, we can use the distance formula which is: distance = √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2) Where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the coordinates of the two points. Using this formula, let's find the distance between points C(2, 2) and D(5, 6). distance = √((5 - 2)^2 + (6 - 2)^2) distance = √(3^2 + 4^2) distance = √(9 + 16) distance = √25 distance = 5 units Therefore, the distance between points C and D is 5 units.

A bricklayer charges ₦1,500 per day for himself and ₦500 per day for his assistant. If a two bedroom flat was built for ₦95,000 and the bricklayer worked 10 days more than his assistant, how much did the assistant receive?

Awọn alaye Idahun

Let the number of days worked by the assistant = t
$\therefore$ The bricklayer worked (t + 10) days.
1500(t + 10) + 500(t) = N 95,000
1500t + 15,000 + 500t = N 95,000
2000t = N 95,000 - N 15,000
2000t = N 80,000
t = 40 days
$\therefore$ The assistant worked for 40 days and received N (500 x 40)
= N 20,000

Differentiate $\frac{2x}{\sin x}$ with respect to x.

Awọn alaye Idahun

To differentiate 2xsinx with respect to x, we use the product rule of differentiation, which states that the derivative of a product of two functions is equal to the first function times the derivative of the second function plus the second function times the derivative of the first function. Applying this rule, we get: (2xsinx)' = 2(x)'sinx + 2x(sin x)' Simplifying this expression, we have: (2xsinx)' = 2sinx + 2xcosx Therefore, the answer is option (D) 2cscx(1−xcotx). None of the other options match the simplified expression we obtained using the product rule.

Find the equation of a line perpendicular to the line 4y = 7x + 3 which passes through (-3, 1)

Awọn alaye Idahun

Equation: 4y = 7x + 3
$⟹y=\frac{7}{4}x+\frac{3}{4}$
Slope = coefficient of x = $\frac{7}{4}$
Slope of perpendicular line = $\frac{-1}{\frac{7}{4}}$
= $\frac{-4}{7}$
The perpendicular line passes (-3, 1)
$\therefore$ Using the equation of line $y=mx+b$
m = slope and b = intercept.
$y=\frac{-4}{7}x+b$
To find the intercept, substitute y = 1 and x = -3 in the equation.
$1=\frac{-4}{7}(-3)+b$
$1=\frac{12}{7}+b$
$b=\frac{-5}{7}$
$\therefore y=\frac{-4}{7}x-\frac{5}{7}$
$7y+4x+5=0$
