Question 1:
A shop sells a TV set at a discount of 15% on the normal price. Kina bought the TV set for 357,000 fcfa. Calculate the normal price of the TV set.
Determine the percentage of the normal price paid.
If the discount is 15%, then Kina paid of the normal price.
Set up the equation.
Let be the normal price. We have .
Solve for .
The normal price of the TV set is 420,000 fcfa.
Question 2:
Given that is one of the factors of .a) Show that is a factor of .
Apply the Factor Theorem.
According to the Factor Theorem, is a factor of if and only if .
Calculate .
Since , we have shown that is a factor of .
b) Find the other two factors of .
Perform polynomial division.
Since is a factor, we can divide by to find the quotient. Using synthetic division with the root :
1 | 2 1 -2 -1 | 2 3 1 ----------------- 2 3 1 0The quotient is .
Factor the quadratic quotient.
We need to factor the quadratic polynomial .
We look for two numbers whose product is and whose sum is 3. These numbers are 1 and 2.The other two factors of are and .
Question 3:
a) Find the value of , given that .
Rewrite the right side with the same base.
We know that .
Use the property of exponents .
Equate the exponents.
Since the bases are equal, the exponents must be equal.
The value of is -7.
b) Simplify .
Find a common denominator.
The common denominator for 5 and 10 is 10.
Rewrite the first fraction with the denominator 10:Combine the fractions.
Simplify the numerator.
The simplified expression is .
Question 4:
The function is defined on as .a) Evaluate .
Substitute into the function.
The value of is -30.
b) Factorize completely.
Factor out the common factor.
Use the difference of squares formula ().
Here, and .
The factored form of is .
c) Solve the equation .
Use the factored form of and set it to zero.
Solve for using the zero product property.
For the product to be zero, at least one of the factors must be zero.
The solutions to the equation are and .
