WOLMER’S BOYS’ SCHOOL

Department of Mathematics – Grade 11


Graded Assignment # 2 – Linear Programming, Variation and Functions
DUE: JANUARY 15, 2019

Note briefly: This assignment requires ONLY ONE graph paper and folder paper/notebook.

1. TOPIC : LINEAR PROGRAMMING


A farmer supplies his neighbours with ‘x’ pumpkins and ‘y’ melons daily, using the following
conditions
1st condition: 𝑦 ≥ 3
nd
2 condition: 𝑦 ≤ 𝑥
rd
3 condition: the total number of pumpkins and melons must not exceed 12

A. Write an inequality to represent the third condition [1 mark ]


B. Using a scale of 1 cm to represent one pumpkin on the x – axis and
1 cm to represent one melon on the y – axis, draw the graphs of the
three lines associated with the three inequalities. [4 marks]

C. Shade the region on your graph that satisfies the three inequalities. [1 mark ]

D. Determine from your graph, the minimum values of ‘x’ and ‘ y’ [2 marks]
which satisfies the conditions

2. TOPIC : VARIATION
A. When y varies directly as the square of x, the variation is written “𝑦 = 𝑘𝑥”,
where k is a constant.
i. Given that y = 50 when x = 10, find the value of ‘𝑘’ [2 marks]
ii. Calculate the value of y when x = 30 [2 marks]

B. The table below shows the corresponding values of the variables x and y,
where y varies directly as x

x 2 5 b
Calculate the values of ‘a’ and ‘b’ [3 marks]
y 12 a 48
3. TOPIC: FUNCTIONS

QUESTION 1
The functions f and g are defined as:
𝑓 (𝑥) = 2𝑥 − 5 and 𝑔 (𝑥) = 𝑥 2 + 3

A. Calculate the value of:


i. 𝑓 (4) [1 mark ]
ii. 𝑔𝑓 (4) [2 marks]

B. Find 𝑓 −1 (𝑥) (the inverse of function f) [2 marks]

QUESTION 2
Given that: 𝑓 (𝑥) = 2𝑥 − 5 and 𝑔 (𝑥) = 𝑥 2 − 31
Calculate the value of:

i. 𝑓 (−2) [1 mark ]
ii. 𝑔𝑓 (1) [2 marks]
iii. 𝑓 −1 (3) [2 marks]
