DIFFERENCE OF 2 SQUARES 1


Evaluate 66572 – 66472

Solution

66572 – 66472 = (6657 + 6647)( 6657 – 6647)

                     = (13304)( 10)

                     = 133040

Hence 66572 – 66472 = 133040.

TRANSPOSITION OF FORMULAE 2



SIMULTANEOUS EQUATIONS 2


Solve the following equations by substitution method.
x + y = 9
x + 3y = 13

Solution

x + y = 9 ----------- (i)
x + 3y = 13 ---------- (ii)

from equation (i)

x + y = 9
x = 9- y ----------(iii)

substitute equation (iii) in (ii) above,

x + 3y = 13

(9- y)  + 3y = 13

9+2y = 13

2y = 13 - 9

2y = 4
2      2

y = 2


From equation (iii)

x = 9- 2 ----------(iii)
x = 9- 2
 x = 7

Hence x=7 and y=2.

4x - y = 20

3x + 2y = 70

SETS 2


If n(A) = 30 , n(AuB) = 60 and n(AnB) =10, find n(B)

Solution

n(AuB) = n(A) + n(B) - n(AnB)

  60     = 30 + n(B)  – 10

  60     = 30 -10 + n(B)  

  60     = 20 + n(B)  

  60 - 20        = n(B)

  40        = n(B)

Hence n(B) = 40 answer

If n(A)= 40 , n(AuB) = 70 and n(AnB) = 20, find n(B).


SIMPLE INTEREST 2


Rayan deposited the amount of 6,000/= in a bank for 5 years and got a profit of 2000/=. Find the interest rate?

Solution

I = 2000/=, P = 6,000/=, T = 5 years, R = ?

I  = PRT
      100

2000  = 6,000 x R x 5
                      100

2000  = 6,000 x R x 5
                      100

2000  = 60 x R x 5
                     
2000  = 300R
          
6.672000  = 300R
     300       300

Hence the interest rate was Tsh 6.67%

RADIAN INTO DEGREES 1


Change ∏/90 radians into degrees.

Solution

Ө = 1800 x s                but s = ∏/90
       ∏

Ө = 1800  x  ∏              
       ∏     90

Ө =  2 180   x   ∏ 1             
          1∏     901

Hence ∏/90 radian is equal to 20.

Change ∏/20 radians into degrees.


PERCENTAGE PROFIT 1


A man got a profit of 500/= after selling an item for 2500/=. Find the percentage profit.

Solution

%’ge profit = Profit   X  100    where B. P. represents Buying Price.
                         B.P

%’ge profit = 500   X  100   
                       2500

%’ge profit = 20%   
                       
Hence Percentage Profit is 20%

LENGTH OF AN ARC 1


Find the length of an arc if the radius of the circle is 10cm.

Solution

L = ∏r
      1800

L = ∏ x  10
             1800

L = ∏ cm
      18

Hence length of an arc is ∏/18 cm

Find the length of an arc if the radius of the circle is 8cm.


SIMPLE INTEREST 1


Dikshi deposited the amount of 6000/= in a bank which gives an interest rate of 3% for 4 years. Find the simple interest she got?

Solution

I = ?,  P = 6,000/=, T = 4 years, R = 3%

I  = PRT
      100

I  = 6000 x 3 x 4
            100

I  = 6000 x 3 x 4
            100

I  = 60 x 3 x 4
          
I  = 720/=

Hence the simple interest was Tsh 720/=
