Loan borrowed = 80/100 × 350,000
=280,000
Amount paid to the bank after 8 years = P + I
= P + PRT/100
=280000 + 280000×7×8/100
=280,000 + 156,800
Amount = #436,800
Total cost of house to the man = #350,000 + Interest
= #350,000 + 156,800
= #506,800
(10b)
Percentage increase in cost of house = 506,800 – 350,000 × 100%
= 156,800/350,000 × 100%
= 44.8%
(10c)
Percentage loss = loss/cost price × 100%
=(506,800 + 10,000) – 460,000/(506,800 + 10,000) × 100%
= 516,800 – 460,000/516,800 × 100%
56,800/516,800 × 100%
= 0.1099 × 100%
= 10.99%

Draw the diagram
x² = 20² + 8² – 2x 20 x 8 x Cos 50º
x² = 400 + 64 – 320 x 0.6427
x² = 464 – 205.7
√x² = √258.3
x = 16.1
x = 16km

sinØ/20 = sin50/16
sinØ = 20 x sin 50/16
sinØ 0.9576
Ø = sinˉ¹ 0.9576 = 73.3º
The bearing 90 -73.3 = 16.7º
(12b)
Draw the diagram
y = √12² + 5²
y = √144 + 25
y = √169 = 13
tan Ø = 5/12 = (0.04167)
Ø = tanˉ¹ (0.4167) = 22.6º
Sin Ø = 5/6 + x
Sin 22.6º = 5/6 + x
(0.3843) (6 + x) = 5
2.3058 + 0.3843x = 5
0.3843x = 5-2.3058
0.3843x/0.3843 = 2.6942/0.3943
X = 7.01
X ≈ 7

Obtuse Reflex
<MOP + <MOP = 360(angle at a point)
Obtuse <MOP + 196° = 360°
Obtuse <MOP = 360 – 196
= 164°
OMP + OPM + Obtuse MOP = 180°(<s in a triangle)
But OMP = OPM = x(radius of the circle and hence base angles are the same)
2x + 164 = 180
2x = 180 – 164
2x = 16°
X = 16/2 = 8°
Also MNP = 1/2×obtuseMOP
= 1/2 × 164°
= 82°
Now; MNP + NMP + NPM = 180° (<s in a triangle)
82 + (52+8) + (m+8) = 180°
m + 150 = 180°
M = 180 – 150
M = 30°

=3√6/2 – 4√6/3 – 2√6
=(3/2 – 4/3 – 2)√6
=(9 – 8 – 12)√6

prob(only one passes) = m passes and N fails or M fails and N passes
Prob (M passes) = 2/3; prob(M fails) = 1 – 2/3 = 1/3
Prob(N passes) = 4/5; prob(N fails) = 1 – 4/5 = 1/5
Prob(only one passes) = (2/3 × 1/5) + (1/3 × 4/5)
= 2/15 + 4/15
= 6/15
= 2/15
(3bii)
prob(at least one passes) = prob(only one passes) + prob(both parties)
= 2/5 + (2/3 × 4/5)
= 2/5 + 8/15
= 6/15 + 8/15
= 14/15

Given; slant height l = 18.7cm
Diameter, d = 24cm
π = 22/7
But, Curved surface area of cone = πrl
=π(d/2)l

128^x × 2/16^(1-x) = 8⅔x
= 2^7x × 2/2^4(1-x) = 2³(⅔x)
= 2^7x + 1/2^4(1-x) = 2^2x
Cross multiply
2^4(1 – x) + 2x = 2^7x + 1
4(1 – x) + 2x = 7x + 1
4 – 4x + 2x = 7x + 1
4 – 2x = 7x + 1
9x = 3
X = 3/9 = 1/3
