The cost of dinner for a group of tourist is partly constant and partly varies as the number of tourists present. It costs $740.00 when 20 tourists were present and $960.00 when the number of tourists increased by 10. Find the cost of the dinner when only 15 tourists were present.
(a) Fred bought a car for $5,600.00 and later sold it at 90% of the cost price. He spent $1,310.00 out of the amount received and invested the rest at 6% per annum simple interest. Calculate the interest earned in 3 years.
(b) Solve the equations 2\(^x\)(4\(^{-7}\)) = 2 and 3\(^{-x}\)(9\(^{2y}\)) = 3 simultaneously.

A survey of 40 students showed that 23 students study Mathematics, 5 study Mathematics and Physics, 8 study Chemistry and Mathematics, 5 study Physics and Chemistry and 3 study all the three subjects. The number of students who study Physics only is twice the number who study Chemistry only.
(a) Find the number of students who study:
(i) only Physics.
(ii) only one subject
b) What is the probability that a student selected at random studies exactly 2 subjects?
