(a) If the mean of m, n, s, p and q is 12, calculate the mean of (m + 4), (n - 3), (s + 6), (p - 2) and (q + 8).
(b) In a community of 500 people, the 75th percentile age is 65 years while the 25th percentile age is 15 years. How many of the people are between 15 and 65 years?
In a road worthiness test on 240 cars, 60% passed. The number that failed had faults in Clutch, Brakes and Steering as follows: Clutch only - 28, Clutch and Steering - 14; Clutch, Steering and Brakes - 8; Clutch and Brakes - 20; Brakes and Steering only - 6. The number of cars with faults in Steering only is twice the number of cars with faults in Brakes only.
(a) Draw a Venn Diagram to illustrate this information.
(b) How many cars had : (i) Faulty Brakes? (ii) Only one fault?
(a) Find the equation of the line passing through the points (2, 5) and (-4, -7).
(b) Three ships P, Q and R are at sea. The bearing of Q from P is 030° and the bearing of P and R is 300°. If |PQ| = 5 km and |PR| = 8 km,
(i) Illustrate the information in a diagram.
(ii) Calculate, correct to three significant figures, the:
(1) distance between Q and R
(2) bearing of R from Q.
(a) Lamin bought a book for N300.00 and sold it to Bola at a profit of x%. Bola then sold the same book at a profit of x%. If James paid \(N(6x + \frac{3}{4})\) more for the book than Lamin paid, find the value of x.
(b) Find the range of values of x which satisfies the inequality \(3x - 2 < 10 + x < 2 + 5x\).
In the diagram, |PT| = 4 cm, |TS| = 6 cm, |PQ| = 6 cm and < SPR = 30°. Calculate, correct to the nearest whole number:
(a) |SR| ;
(b) area of TQRS.
