Here's the solution for the questions in the image.

Question (d)

  1. Start with the given equation.

    4k+3r2=104k + 3r^2 = 10
  2. Subtract 4k4k from both sides to isolate the term with r2r^2.

    3r2=10−4k3r^2 = 10 - 4k
  3. Divide both sides by 3 to make r2r^2 the subject.

    r2=10−4k3r^2 = \frac{10 - 4k}{3} r2=10−4k3\boxed{r^2 = \frac{10 - 4k}{3}}

    Question 8 (a) (i)

  4. Substitute x=12x = \frac{1}{2} into the function f(x)=2x−73f(x) = \frac{2x-7}{3}.

    f(12)=2(12)−73f\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) = \frac{2\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) - 7}{3}
  5. Simplify the numerator.

    f(12)=1−73f\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) = \frac{1 - 7}{3} f(12)=−63f\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) = \frac{-6}{3}
  6. Perform the division.

    f(12)=−2f\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) = -2 −2\boxed{-2}

    Question 8 (a) (ii)

  7. Set f(x)f(x) equal to g(x)g(x).

    2x−73=x−23\frac{2x-7}{3} = x - \frac{2}{3}
  8. Multiply the entire equation by 3 to eliminate the denominators.

    3⋅(2x−73)=3⋅(x−23)3 \cdot \left(\frac{2x-7}{3}\right) = 3 \cdot \left(x - \frac{2}{3}\right) 2x−7=3x−22x - 7 = 3x - 2
  9. Rearrange the equation to solve for xx.

    Subtract 2x2x from both sides.

    −7=3x−2x−2-7 = 3x - 2x - 2 −7=x−2-7 = x - 2
  10. Add 2 to both sides.

    −7+2=x-7 + 2 = x x=−5x = -5 x=−5\boxed{x = -5}

    Question 8 (b)

  11. Rearrange the quadratic equation into standard form ax2+bx+c=0ax^2 + bx + c = 0.

    x2+x=132x^2 + x = 132 x2+x−132=0x^2 + x - 132 = 0
  12. Factor the quadratic expression.

    We need two numbers that multiply to -132 and add to 1. These numbers are 12 and -11.

    (x+12)(x−11)=0(x + 12)(x - 11) = 0
  13. Set each factor equal to zero and solve for xx.

    x+12=0orx−11=0x + 12 = 0 \quad \text{or} \quad x - 11 = 0 x=−12orx=11x = -12 \quad \text{or} \quad x = 11 x=−12 or x=11\boxed{x = -12 \text{ or } x = 11}
