Answer: 3x - 7 = 5x + 1 -2x = 8 x = -4
3. Simplify the expression: (2x + 5)(3x - 2).

Answer: (2x + 5)(3x - 2) = 6x² - 4x + 15x - 10 = 6x² + 11x - 10

4. Find the domain of the function f(x) = √(4 - x).

Answer: The domain of the function f(x) = √(4 - x) is all real numbers x such that 4 - x ≥
0. Solving the inequality: 4 - x ≥ 0 x ≤ 4

3. Factorize the expression: x² + 5x + 6.

Answer: x² + 5x + 6 = (x + 2)(x + 3)

4. Solve the system of equations: 2x + y = 7 x - y = 3

Answer: Adding the equations together: (2x + y) + (x - y) = 7 + 3 3x = 10 x = 10/3

Substituting x = 10/3 into the second equation: (10/3) - y = 3

• y = 3 - (10/3)
• y = (9 - 10) / 3
• y = -1/3 y = 1/3

So, the solution to the system of equations is x = 10/3 and y = 1/3.

5. Simplify the expression: (2a²b³) / (4ab²).

 III. Problem-Solving: Solve the following problems. Show your complete solution. (5
marks each)

1. Solve the quadratic equation: x² + 6x + 8 = 0.

Answer: We can factorize the equation: (x + 2)(x + 4) = 0

Setting each factor equal to zero: x + 2 = 0 or x + 4 = 0 x = -2 or x = -4

So, the solutions to the quadratic equation are x = -2 and x = -4.

2. Solve the inequality: 3x - 5 > 7.

Answer: 3x - 5 > 7 3x > 7 + 5 3x > 12 x > 4

So, the solution to the inequality is x > 4.

3. Find the value of x in the equation √(2x + 5) - 3 = 0.

Answer: √(2x + 5) - 3 = 0 √(2x + 5) = 3 Square both sides: 2x + 5 = 9 2x = 9 - 5 2x = 4 x

= 4/2 x = 2

So, the value of x in the equation is x = 2.

4. Solve the system of equations: 2x + 3y = 8 4x - 2y = 2

Answer: Multiply the first equation by 2: 4x + 6y = 16

Add the equations together: 4x + 6y + 4x - 2y = 16 + 2 8x + 4y = 18

Divide the equation by 2: 4x + 2y = 9

Subtract the new equation from the first equation: (4x + 2y) - (4x + 2y) = 9 - 8 0 = 1

The system of equations is inconsistent, and there is no solution.

5. Solve the equation log₃(2x + 1) = 2.

Answer: Rewrite the equation in exponential form: 3² = 2x + 1 9 = 2x + 1 2x = 9 - 1 2x =

1. In a right triangle, one acute angle measures 30°. If the hypotenuse is 10 cm, find the
lengths of the other two sides.

Answer: Let's label the sides of the right triangle: Opposite side = x Adjacent side = y
Hypotenuse = 10 cm

Using the trigonometric ratios, we have: sin(30°) = x / 10 x = 10 * sin(30°) x ≈ 5 cm

cos(30°) = y / 10 y = 10 * cos(30°) y ≈ 8.66 cm

So, the lengths of the other two sides are x ≈ 5 cm and y ≈ 8.66 cm.

2. Find the length of the diagonal in a rectangular prism with dimensions 6 cm, 8 cm, and
10 cm.
 Answer: We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the diagonal.

Length of the diagonal = √(length² + width² + height²) = √(6 cm)² + (8 cm)² + (10 cm)²
= √(36 cm² + 64 cm² + 100 cm²) = √(200 cm²) ≈ 14.14 cm

So, the length of the diagonal is approximately 14.14 cm.

3. In a regular pentagon, the measure of each interior angle is 108°. How many sides does
a regular polygon have if the measure of each interior angle is 120°?

Answer: Let n be the number of sides in the regular polygon.

We know that the sum of the interior angles of a polygon is given by the formula: Sum
of interior angles = (n - 2) * 180°

For a regular polygon, all interior angles are equal, so each interior angle is: Each interior
angle = (Sum of interior angles) / n

Given that each interior angle is 120°, we have: 120° = [(n - 2) * 180°] / n

Simplifying the equation, we get: 120°n = (n - 2) * 180° 120n = 180n - 360 60n = 360 n
=6

Therefore, the regular polygon has 6 sides.

4. Find the missing side length in the similar triangles below:

Copy code
|\ | \
12 | \ ? |
|____
85

Answer: Since the triangles are similar, the corresponding sides are proportional.

Using the property of similar triangles: 12/8 = ?/5

Cross-multiplying, we have: 8? = 12 * 5 8? = 60 ? = 60/8 ? = 7.5

So, the missing side length is 7.5 units.

5. Find the measure of angle x in the figure below:

 Copy code
70°
|---x---| | | |_______| 110°

Answer: The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180°.

Therefore, we can find angle x by subtracting the given angles from 180°: x = 180° - 70°
- 110° x = 180° - 180° x = 0°

So, the measure of angle x is 0°.

Note: These are sample answers, and students may provide alternative correct
approaches as long as they demonstrate the correct understanding of the concepts.

II. Short Answer Questions: Answer the following questions briefly and concisely. (2
marks each)

1. Define the term "probability."

Answer: Probability refers to the measure of the likelihood or chance that a specific
event will occur. It is expressed as a value between 0 and 1, where 0 represents an
impossible event and 1 represents a certain event.

2. Calculate the mean of the following data set: 5, 7, 9, 11, 13.

Answer: Mean = (sum of all values) / (total count) Mean = (5 + 7 + 9 + 11 + 13) / 5

Mean = 45 / 5 Mean = 9

So, the mean of the data set is 9.

3. Find the median of the following data set: 10, 12, 15, 17, 20.

Answer: To find the median, we arrange the data set in ascending order: 10, 12, 15, 17,
20

Since the data set has an odd number of values, the median is the middle value: Median
= 15

So, the median of the data set is 15.

4. Calculate the variance of the following data set: 4, 6, 8, 10, 12.

Answer: Step 1: Calculate the mean of the data set. Mean = (4 + 6 + 8 + 10 + 12) / 5
Mean = 40 / 5 Mean = 8
 Step 2: Calculate the squared difference between each value and the mean. (4 - 8)² + (6
- 8)² + (8 - 8)² + (10 - 8)² + (12 - 8)² 16 + 4 + 0 + 4 + 16 40

Step 3: Calculate the variance. Variance = sum of squared differences / (total count - 1)
Variance = 40 / (5 - 1) Variance = 10

So, the variance of the data set is 10.

5. Determine the z-score for a data value of 72 in a data set with a mean of 65 and a
standard deviation of 4.

Answer: Z-score = (data value - mean) / standard deviation Z-score = (72 - 65) / 4 Z-
score = 7 / 4 Z-score = 1.75

So, the z-score for the data value of 72 is 1.75.

III. Problem-Solving: Solve the following problems. Show your complete solution. (5

1. A class of 30 students took a math test, and their scores are as follows: 85, 92, 78, 90, 88,
76, 82, 95, 81, 89, 92, 85, 78, 90, 91, 86, 92, 84, 88, 79, 85, 92, 78, 90, 88, 76, 82, 95, 81, 89

Calculate the mean, median, and mode of the data set.

Answer: Mean = (sum of all values) / (total count) Mean = (85 + 92 + 78 + 90 + 88 + 76

+ 82 + 95 + 81 + 89 + 92 + 85 + 78 + 90 + 91 + 86 + 92 + 84 + 88 + 79 + 85 + 92 + 78
+ 90 + 88 + 76 + 82 + 95 + 81 + 89) / 30 Mean = 2600 / 30 Mean = 86.67

To find the median, we arrange the data set in ascending order: 76, 76, 78, 78, 79, 81, 81,
82, 82, 84, 85, 85, 85, 86, 88, 88, 88, 89, 89, 90, 90, 90, 91, 92, 92, 92, 95, 95

Since the data set has an odd number of values, the median is the middle value: Median
= 88

The mode of the data set is the value(s) that appear(s) most frequently: Mode = 92

So, the mean is approximately 86.67, the median is 88, and the mode is 92.

2. A set of data has a mean of 20 and a standard deviation of 3. If a data value is 25, find
its z-score.
 Answer: Z-score = (data value - mean) / standard deviation Z-score = (25 - 20) / 3 Z-
score = 5 / 3

So, the z-score for the data value of 25 is 5/3.

3. The weights (in kg) of five students are as follows: 52, 60, 55, 48, 50. Determine the
range and interquartile range of the data set.

Answer: To find the range, we subtract the lowest value from the highest value: Range =
highest value - lowest value Range = 60 - 48 Range = 12 kg

To find the interquartile range, we need to determine the first quartile (Q1) and third
quartile (Q3). Since we have a small data set, we can arrange the data in ascending
order: 48, 50, 52, 55, 60

The median (Q2) is the second quartile.

Q2 = Median = (52 + 55) / 2 Q2 = 53.5 kg

To find Q1, we take the median of the lower half of the data set: Q1 = Median of (48, 50,
52) = 50 kg

To find Q3, we take the median of the upper half of the data set: Q3 = Median of (55,
60) = 57.5 kg

Interquartile Range (IQR) = Q3 - Q1 IQR = 57.5 - 50 IQR = 7.5 kg

So, the range of the data set is 12 kg, and the interquartile range is 7.5 kg.

4. A box contains the following marbles: 5 red, 4 blue, 3 green, and 8 yellow. If a marble is
randomly chosen from the box, what is the probability of selecting a red or blue marble?

Answer: Total number of marbles = 5 (red) + 4 (blue) + 3 (green) + 8 (yellow) = 20

Probability of selecting a red or blue marble = (number of red marbles + number of

blue marbles) / total number of marbles Probability = (5 + 4) / 20 Probability = 9 / 20
Probability = 0.45

So, the probability of selecting a red or blue marble is 0.45.

5. A survey was conducted to determine the favorite subject of students in a Grade 11
class. The results are as follows: Math: 15 students Science: 10 students English: 8
students History: 7 students

Calculate the percentage of students who chose each subject.

Answer: Total number of students = 15 (Math) + 10 (Science) + 8 (English) + 7 (History)

= 40

Percentage of students who chose Math = (number of students who chose Math / total
number of students) * 100 Percentage of students who chose Math = (15 / 40) * 100
Percentage = 37.5%

Percentage of students who chose Science = (number of students who chose Science /
total number of students) * 100 Percentage of students who chose Science = (10 / 40) *
100 Percentage = 25%

Percentage of students who chose English = (number of students who chose English /
total number of students) * 100 Percentage of students who chose English = (8 / 40) *
100 Percentage = 20%

Percentage of students who chose History = (number of students who chose History /
total number of students) * 100 Percentage of students who chose History = (7 / 40) *
100 Percentage = 17.5%

So, the percentage of students who chose Math is 37.5%, Science is 25%, English is 20%,
and History is 17.5%.

Note: These are sample answers, and students may provide alternative correct

Adjacent side c. Opposite side d. Reference side

Answer: c

II. Short Answer Questions: Answer the following questions briefly and concisely. (2
marks each)

1. Define the six trigonometric ratios (sin, cos, tan, csc, sec, cot) in terms of the sides of a
right triangle.

Answer:

• Sin θ (sine) = opposite/hypotenuse

• Cos θ (cosine) = adjacent/hypotenuse
• Tan θ (tangent) = opposite/adjacent
• Csc θ (cosecant) = 1/sin θ = hypotenuse/opposite
• Sec θ (secant) = 1/cos θ = hypotenuse/adjacent
• Cot θ (cotangent) = 1/tan θ = adjacent/opposite
2. Given a right triangle with an angle of 30 degrees and a hypotenuse of 10 units,
calculate the lengths of the opposite and adjacent sides.

Answer: Using the trigonometric ratios:

• Opposite side = sin θ * hypotenuse = sin 30° * 10

• Adjacent side = cos θ * hypotenuse = cos 30° * 10

Calculating the values:

• Opposite side = 0.5 * 10 = 5 units

• Adjacent side = √(1 - (0.5)^2) * 10 = √(1 - 0.25) * 10 ≈ 8.66 units

So, the lengths of the opposite and adjacent sides are approximately 5 units and 8.66
units, respectively.

3. If sin θ = 0.6, calculate the value of cos θ using the Pythagorean identity.

Answer: Using the Pythagorean identity: sin^2 θ + cos^2 θ = 1

Rearranging the formula: cos^2 θ = 1 - sin^2 θ cos^2 θ = 1 - 0.6^2 cos^2 θ = 1 - 0.36

cos^2 θ = 0.64

Taking the square root of both sides: cos θ = ±√0.64

Since cosine is positive in the given quadrant, the value of cos θ is: cos θ ≈ √0.64 ≈ 0.8

So, the value of cos θ is approximately 0.8.

4. In a right triangle, the length of one leg is 6 units and the length of the hypotenuse is 10
units. Calculate the value of sin θ.

Answer: Using the trigonometric ratio: sin θ = opposite/hypotenuse

Given values: opposite side = 6 units hypotenuse = 10 units

Substituting the values: sin θ = 6/10

Simplifying the fraction: sin θ = 0.6

So, the value of sin θ is 0.6.

5. A ladder is leaning against a wall. The base of the ladder is 3 meters away from the wall,
and the ladder makes an angle of 60 degrees with the ground. Determine the length of
the ladder.

Answer: Using the trigonometric ratio: cos θ = adjacent/hypotenuse

Given values: adjacent side = 3 meters angle θ = 60 degrees

Substituting the values: cos 60° = 3/hypotenuse

Simplifying the equation: 1/2 = 3/hypotenuse

Cross-multiplying: 2 * 3 = 1 * hypotenuse 6 = hypotenuse

So, the length of the ladder is 6 meters.

Note: These are sample answers, and students may provide alternative correct
approaches as long as they demonstrate the correct understanding of the concepts.
