(a) Copy and complete the following table for the relation \(y = \frac{5}{2} + x - 4x^{2}\)
| x | -2.0 | -1.5 | -1.0 | -0.5 | 0 | 0.5 | 1 | 1.5 | 2.0 |
| y | -15.5 | 1 | 2.5 |
(b) Using a scale of 2cm to 1 unit on the x- axis and 2cm to 5 units on the y- axis, draw the graph of the relation for \(-2.0 \leq x \leq 2.0\).
(c) What is the maximum value of y?
(d) From your graph, obtain the roots of the equation \(8x^{2} - 2x - 5 = 0\)
(a) The distribution of junior workers in an institution is as follows: Clerks - 78, Drivers - 36, Typists - 44, Messengers - 52, Others - 30. Represent the above information by a pie chart.
(b) The table below shows the frequency distribution of marks scored by 30 candidates in an aptitude test.
| Marks | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 |
| No of candidates | 5 | 8 | 5 | 6 | 4 | 2 |
Find the mean score to the nearest whole number.
Three towns P, Q and R are such that the distance between P and Q is 50km and the distance between P and R is 90km. If the bearing of Q from P is 075° and the bearing of R from P is 310°, find the :
(a) distance between Q and R ;
(b) baering of R from Q.
The table below shows the weekly profit in naira from a mini-market.
| Weekly profit (N) | 1-10 | 11-20 | 21-30 | 31-40 | 41-50 | 51-60 |
| Freq | 6 | 6 | 12 | 11 | 10 | 5 |
(a) Draw the cumulative frequency curve of the data;
(b) From your graph, estimate the : (i) median ; (ii) 80th percentile
(c) What is the modal weekly profit?
Simplify :
(i) \(2\frac{2}{3} - (2\frac{1}{2} - 1\frac{4}{5})\)
(ii) \(\frac{3.25 - 1.64}{2.47 - 2.01}\)
