Length = 3.0m
Width = 1.8m
Volume= 18,200 litres
Height= ?
But the volume of rectangle area = area ×height
18,200 = 3 × 1.8 ×height
18,200=5.4 × height
Height = 18,200/5.4
Height = 3370.37m

Given that,
a = 2, b = 1
a²+b+3/√4a-b³
=(2)² + 1 + 3/√4(2) -(1)³ = 8/√7
= 8/√7 × √7/√7
=8√7/7
(2aii)
√(a+b)³
=√(2+1)³
=√3³ = √27
=3√3
(2b)
Let the original money be X
Amount spent on shop
=3/7 × X = 3x/7
Amount spent on school
=1/2 × (X – 3x/7)
=1/2(7x – 3x/7) = 4x/14
=2x/7
Amount left = #21
Hence,
X – (3x/7 + 2x/7) = 21
X – 5x/7 = 21
7x – 5x = 147
2x = 147
X = #73.50
i.e the original money
==========================================
(3a)
x+4 = y-5 …(1)
y-1=½(x+1) ….(2)
From equation 1
x-y = -5-4
x-y = -9 … (3)
From equation 2
y-1 = x/2+½
y-1/1 = x+1/2
Cross multiply
x+1=2y-2
x-2y = -3 …(2)
x-y = -9 …(1)
x = 9+y
Substitute -9+y for x in equation 2
-9+y-2y=3
-y=3+9
-y = 12
y= -12
To find; x substitute -12 for y in equation 1
x-y=-9
x-(-12)=-9
x+12=-9
x=-9-12
x=-21
Therefore x = -21, y = -12

(4a)
X/5=√y/Y-Z
By squaring both sides
x²/5² =y/y-z
x²/25 = y/y-z
25y = x²(y-z)
25y = x²y – x²z
25y – x²y = -x²z
y(25-x²) = -x²z
y(25-x²)/25-x² = -x²z/25-x²
y = x²z/25-x²
y = x²z/x²-25

DRAW THE DIAGRAM
π=3.142
Area of the shaded portion = Area of square – Area of the circle
Area of square = L² = 20×20 = 400cm²
Area of circle = πr²
πr² = 3.142(10)²
= 3.142 x 100
= 314.2cm²
Area of the shaded portion = 400 – 314.2
= 85.8cm²

The length of chord AC
1 = AC = 2rsin∅/2
= 2×14sin120/2
=28×0.866
= 24.25cm
(6bii)
Area of the shaded portion = Area of the circle – Area of triangle
Area of the circle = πr²
= 22/7 * (14)²
= 22*196/7 = 616cm²
Area of equilateral triangle = ½ a.b sin C
=1/2*24.25*24.25sin60
=294.03*sin60
=254.64cm²
Hence,
Area of the shaded portion
=616 – 254.64
=361.36cm²
=================================================

4(4x²-x)
Add and subtract the square √ of ½
i.e 4(x²-x +(½)²-(½)²
=4[(x²-x+¼-¼]
=4[(x-½)²-¼]
=4[(x-½)²-1
The first term is a perfect square and 1 must be added to have
4(x-½)²=4x²-4x+1

[Draw the diagram]
π = 3.142
The total surface Area = Area of the rectangle + 2(area of small semi circle)+ 2(area of big semicircle)
Area of rectangle= 20×16
=320cm2
Area of small semi circle
=πr²/2 =π(8)²/2 = 64π/2
Area of big semi circle
=πR²/2 =π(10)²/2 = 100π/2
Hence, the total surface Area
=320 + 2(64π/2)+2(100π/2)
=320+64π+100π
=320+164π
=320+164(3.142)
=835.29cm2

T3 = ar² = -1/4
T5 = ar^4 = -1/16
ar² = -1/4 —–(1)
ar^4 = -1/16—-(2)
Divide 2 by 1
ar^4/ar² = -1/16/-1/4
r² = 1/4
r = √1/4 = 1/2
Common ratio = 1/2 and the first term is;
From (1)
ar² = -1/4
a[1/2]² = -1/4
a/4 = -1/4
a = -1
The first term = -1
