ALGEBRA D1

 

The sum of four consecutive numbers is 606. Find the 3rd number.

 

Solution

 

Let the numbers be as shown in the table below

 

1st number

2nd number

3rd number

4th number

TOTAL

n

n+1

n+2

n+3

606

 

Then, n + (n+1) + (n+2) + (n+3) = 606

 

4n + 1+2+3= 606

 

4n + 6 = 606

 

4n = 606 – 6

 

4n = 600 

 

4n = 600

 4        4

 

n = 150

 

3rd number = n +2

 

                   = 150 + 2

 

                   = 152

 

Hence the 3rd number is 152

FUNCTIONS D3

Given that F(x) = 3x  +  11. Find F(-2) – 2F(5)

 

Solution

 

CASE 1: We find F(-2)

 

 

F(x) = 3x  +  11

 

F(-2) = 3(-2)  +  11

 

F(-2) = -6  +  11

 

F(-2) = 5

 

 

Hence  F(-2) = 5

 

 

 

============================================================

 

CASE 2: We find F(5)

 

 

 

F(x) = 3x  +  11

 

F(5) = 3(5)  +  11

 

F(5) = 15  +  11

 

F(5) = 26

 

 

Hence  F(5) = 26

 

 

2F(5) = 2(26) = 52

 

=====================

 

CASE 3: We find F(-2) – 2F(5)

 

 

= F(-2) – 2F(5)

= 5 – 52

= -47

FUNCTIONS D1

 


Given that F(x) = 7x  +  11. Find F(-2)

 

Solution

 

F(x) = 7x  +  11

 

F(-2) = 7(-2)  +  11

 

F(-2) = -14  +  11

 

F(-2) = -3

 

 

Hence  F(-2) = -3

PERFECT SQUARES C1

 


What must be added to x+ 14x to make the expression a perfect square?

 

Solution

 

a=1, b=14,c=?

 

b2 = 4ac

 

(14)2 = 4 x 1 x c

 

196 = 4c

196 = 4c

 4       4

 

49 = c

 

Hence number to be added is 49

And the expression will be: x+ 14x +49=0

Factorize 1-25m2

 

Solution

 

We use difference of two squares a2 – b2 = (a - b)(a + b)

 

1-25m2 = 12-52m2       

 

            = 12 - (5m)2       

 

            = (1 - 5m)(1 + 5m)

 

Hence 1-25m2 = (1 - 5m)(1 + 5m)  answer

If 12w2 = 588; find w.


Solution


12w2 = 588

 

12w2 = 588               [Dividing by 12 both sides]

12          12

 

w2 = 49

w = 7          Because the square root of 49 is 7.   

 

Hence w = 7 .
