(a) Copy and complete the table of values for the relation y = 4x\(^2\) - 8x - 21, for -2.0 \(\leq\) x \(\leq\) 4.0
| x | -2.0 | -1.5 | -1.0 | 0.5 | 0.0 | 0.5 | 1.0 | 1.5 | 2.0 | 2.5 | 3.0 | 3.5 | 4.0 |
| y | 11 | -9 | -21 | -24 | -21 | -9 | 0 |
(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 for the relation y = 4x\(^2\) - 8x - 21
(ii) Use the graph to find the solution set of
(\(\alpha\)) 4x\(^2\) - 8x = 3;
(\(\beta\)) 4x\(^2\) - 7x - 21 = 0
(a) The curved surface areas of two cones are equal. The base radius of one is 5 cm and its slant height is 12cm. calculate the height of the second cone if its base radius is 6 cm.
(b) Given the matrices A = \(\begin{pmatrix} 2 & 5 \\ -1 & -3 \end{pmatrix}\) and B = \(\begin{pmatrix} 3 & -2 \\ 4 & 1 \end{pmatrix}\), find:
(i) BA;
(ii) the determinant of BA.
(a) Given that 110\(_x\) - 40\(_{five}\). find the value of x
(b) Simplify \(\frac{15}{\sqrt{75}} + \(\sqrt{108}\) + \(\sqrt{432}\), leaving the answer in the form a\(\sqrt{b}\), where a and b are positive integers.
(a)
In the diagram. \(\over{Rs}\) and \(\over{RT}\) are tangent to the circle with centre O, < TUS = 68\(^o\), < SRT = x and < UTO = y. Find the value of x.
(b) Two tanks A and B are filled to capacity with diesel. Tank A holds 600 litres diesel more than tank B. If 100 litres of diesel was pumped cut of each tank, tank A would then contain 3 times as much as tank B. Find the capacity of each tank.
