(a) In a market survey, 100 traders sell fruits, 40 sell apples, 46 oranges, 50 mangoes, 14 apples and oranges, 15 apples and mangoes and 10 sell the three types of fruits. Each of the 100 traders sells at least one of the three fruits.
(i) Represent the information in a Venn diagram ; (ii) Find the number that sell oranges and mangoes only.
(b) Find the value of x for which \(312_{four} + 52_{x} = 96_{ten}\)
(a) The probabilities that three boys pass an examination are \(\frac{2}{3}, \frac{5}{8}\) and \(\frac{3}{4}\) respectively. Find the probability that :
(i) all three boys pass ; (ii) none of the boys pass ; (iii) only two of the boys pass.
(b) A shop-keeper marks a television set for sale at N36,000 so as to make a profit of 20% on the cost price. When he sells it, he allows a discount of 5% of the marked price. Calculate the actual percentage profit.
(a) The roots of the equation \(2x^{2} + (p + 1)x + 9 = 0\), are 1 and 3, where p and q are constants. Find the values of p and q.
(b) The weight of an object varies inversely as the square of its distance from the centre of the earth. A small satellite weighs 80kg on the earth's surface. Calculate, correct to the nearest whole number, the weight of the satellite when it is 800km above the surface of the earth. [Take the radius of the earth as 6,400km].
In the diagram, three points A, B and C are on the same horizontal ground. B is 15m from A, on a bearing of 053°, C is 18m from B on a bearing of 161°. A vertical pole with top T is erected at B such that < ATB = 58°. Calculate, correct to three significant figures,
(a) the length of AC.
(b) the bearing of C from A ;
(c) the height of the pole BT.
(a) A boy blew his rubber balloon to a spherical shape. The balloon burst when its diameter was 15 cm. Calculate, correct to the nearest whole number, the volume of air in the balloon at the point of bursting. [Take \(\pi = \frac{22}{7}\)]
(b) A point X is on latitude 28°N and longitude 105°W. Y is another point on the same latitude as X but on longitude 35°E. (i) Calculate, correct to three significant figures, the distance between X and Y along latitude 28°N ; (ii) How far is X from the equator? [Take \(\pi = \frac{22}{7}\) and radius of the earth = 6,400km].
