(a) In a game, a fair die is rolled once and two unbiased coins are tossed at once. What is the probability of obtaining 3 and a tail?
(b) A box contains 10 marbles, 7 of which are black and 3 are red. Two marbles are drawn one after the other without replacement. Find the probability of getting:
(i) a red, then a black marble ; (ii) two black marbles.
(a) If \(17x = 375^{2} - 356^{2}\), find the exact value of x.
(b) If \(4^{x} = 2^{\frac{1}{2}} \times 8\), find x.
(c) The sum of the first 9 terms of an A.P is 72 and the sum of the next 4 terms is 71, find the A.P.
(a) Using a ruler and a pair of compasses only, construct: (i) a triangle ABC such that |AB| = 5cm, |AC| = 7.5cm and < CAB = 120°; (ii) the locus \(l_{1}\) of points equidistant from A and B; (iii) the locus \(l_{2}\) of points equidistant from AB and AC which passes through triangle ABC .
(b) Label the point P where \(l_{1}\) and \(l_{2}\) intersect.
(c) Measure |CP|.
(a) 
Calculate the area of the shaded segment of the circle shown in the diagram [Take \(\pi = \frac{22}{7}\)]
(b) A tin has radius 3cm and height 6cm. Find the (i) total surface area of the tin ; (ii) volume, in litres, that will fill the tin to capacity, correct to two decimal places.
[Take \(\pi = \frac{22}{7}\)]
(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 \(8x^{2} - 2x - 5 = 0\)
