(a) (i) Using a scale of 2 cm to 1 unit on both axes, on the same graph sheet, draw the graphs of \(y - \frac{3x}{4} = 3\) and \(y + 2x = 6\).
(ii) From your graph, find the coordinates of the point of intersection of the two graphs.
(iii) Show, on the graph sheet, the region satisfied by the inequality \(y - \frac{3}{4}x \geq 3\).
(b) Given that \(x^{2} + bx + 18\) is factorized as \((x + 2)(x + c)\). Find the values of c and b.
A point H is 20 m away from the foot of a tower on the same horizontal ground. From the point H, the angle of elevation of the point P on the tower and the top (T) of the tower are 30° and 50° respectively. Calculate, correct to 3 significant figures :
(a) /PT/; (b) the distance between H and the top of the tower
(c) The position of H if the angle of depression of H from the top of the tower is to be 40°.
Three towns X, Y and Z are such that Y is 20 km from X and 22 km from Z. Town X is 18 km from Z. A health centre is to be built by the government to serve the three towns. The centre is to be located such that patients from X and Y travel equal distance to access the health centre while patients from Z will travel exactly 10 km to reach the Health centre.
(a) Using a scale of 1 cm to 2 km, find the construction, using a pair of compasses and ruler only, the possible positions the Health centre can be located.
(b) In how many possible locations can the Health centre be built?
(c) Measure and record the distances of the location from town X.
(d) Which of these locations would be convenient for all three towns?

The table shows the distribution of marks scored by students in an examination. Calculate, correct to 2 decimal places, the
(a) mean ; (b) standard deviation of the distribution.
(a) 
In the diagram, ABCD is a rectangular garden (3n - 1)m long and (2n + 1)m wide. A wire mesh 135m long is used to mark its boundary and to divide it into 8 equal plots. Find the value of n.
(b) A cylinder with base radius 14 cm has the same volume as a cube of side 22 cm. Calculate the ratio of the total surface area of the cylinder to that of the cube. [Take \(\pi = \frac{22}{7}\)]
