The line \(2y = x + 3\) meets the circle \(x^{2} + y^{2} - 2x + 6y - 15 = 0\) at points M and N, where N is in the first quadrant. Find the coordinates of M and N.
Three school prefects are to be chosen from four girls and five boys. What is the probability that :

The table shows the distribution of ages of 22 students in a school.
| Age (years) | 12-14 | 15-17 | 18-20 | 21-23 | 24-26 |
| Frequency | 6 | 10 | 3 | 2 | 1 |
Using an assumed mean of 19, calculate, correct to three significant figures, the :
(a) mean age ; (b) standard deviation ; of the distribution.
The initial velocity of a particle of mass 0.1kg is 40 m/s in the direction of the unit vector j. The velocity of the particle changed to 30 m/s in the direction of the unit vector i. Find the change in momentum.
A stone is dropped vertically downwards from the top of a tower of height 45m with a speed of 20 ms\(^{-1}\). Find the :
(a) time it takes to reach the ground ;
(b) speed with which it hits the ground. [Take \(g = 10 ms^{-2}\)].
