(a) Solve the simultaneous equation : \(\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{y} = 5 ; \frac{1}{y} - \frac{1}{x} = 1\).

(b) A man drives from Ibadan to Oyo, a distance of 48km in 45 minutes. If he drives at 72 km/h where the surface is good and 48 km/h where it is bad, find the number of kilometers of good surface.

(a) 

In the diagram, O is the centre of the circle radius r cm and < XOY = 90°.If the area of the shaded part is 504\(cm^{2}\), calculate the value of r. [Take \(\pi = \frac{22}{7}\)].

(b) Two isosceles triangles PQR and PQS are drawn on opposite sides of a common base PQ. If \(< PQR = 66°\) and \(< PSQ = 109°\), calculate the value of \(< RQS\).

A building contractor tendered for two independent contracts, X and Y. The probabilities that he will win contract X is 0.5 and not win contract Y is 0.3, What is the probability that he will win :

(a) both contracts ;

(b) exactly one of the contracts ;

(c) neither of the contracts?

(a) If \(\frac{3}{2p - \frac{1}{2}} = \frac{\frac{1}{3}}{\frac{1}{4}p + 1}\), find p.

(b) A television set was marked for sale at GH¢ 760.00 in order to make a profit of 20%. The television set was actually sold at a discount of 5%. Calculate, correct to 2 significant figures, the actual percentage profit.

(a) Copy and complete the table of values for the relation \(y = 2 \sin x + 1\)

(b) Using scales of 2 cm to 30° on  the x- axis and 2 cm to 1 unit on the y- axis, draw the graph of \(y = 2 \sin x + 1, 0° \leq x \leq 270°\).

(c) Use the graph to find the values of x for which \(\sin x = \frac{1}{4}\).
