Question 1:
This question is incomplete as there is no pie chart or context provided for 'variety' or 'telecast news'. Therefore, it cannot be solved.
Question 2:
i) What is the angle for rent?
Step 1: The sum of angles in a pie chart is 360∘. Add the given angles and subtract from 360∘ to find the angle for rent (x).
x∘+105∘+36∘+30∘+84∘+65∘=360∘
x∘+320∘=360∘
x∘=360∘−320∘
x∘=40∘
The angle for rent is 40∘.
ii) Calculate the amount Mr. Brown put in his saving account.
Step 1: The total monthly income is Gh¢5,400.00. The angle for savings is 84∘.
Step 2: Calculate the amount saved using the proportion of the angle.
Amount saved=TotalangleSavingsangle×Total income
Amount saved=360∘84∘×Gh¢5,400.00
Amount saved=0.2333...×Gh¢5,400.00
Amount saved=Gh¢1,260.00
Mr. Brown put Gh¢1,260.00 in his saving account.
iii) What fraction of his income was spent on rent?
Step 1: The angle for rent is 40∘ (from part i).
Step 2: Express this angle as a fraction of the total angle in a circle.
Fraction on rent=TotalangleRentangle
Fraction on rent=360∘40∘
Fraction on rent=91
The fraction of his income spent on rent is 91.
Question 3:
i) Find the angle representing Toyota.
Step 1: The sum of angles in a pie chart is 360∘. Add the given angles and subtract from 360∘ to find the angle for Toyota (x).
x∘+100∘+36∘+40∘+64∘=360∘
x∘+240∘=360∘
x∘=360∘−240∘
x∘=120∘
The angle representing Toyota is 120∘.
ii) How many Toyota cars were parked at the park?
Step 1: We are given that 9 Opel cars represent an angle of 36∘.
Step 2: Determine the number of cars per degree.
Cars per degree=36∘9cars=0.25 cars/degree
Step 3: Multiply the cars per degree by the angle for Toyota (120∘ from part i).
Number of Toyota cars=0.25cars/degree×120∘
Number of Toyota cars=30 cars
There were 30Toyotacars parked at the park.
iii) How many cars were parked at the park?
Step 1: Use the cars per degree calculated in part ii.
Step 2: Multiply the cars per degree by the total angle of the pie chart (360∘).
Total cars=0.25cars/degree×360∘
Total cars=90 cars
There were 90cars parked at the park.
iv) What percentage of the cars parked is Nissan?
Step 1: The angle for Nissan is 40∘.
Step 2: Calculate the percentage by dividing the Nissan angle by the total angle and multiplying by 100%.
Percentage of Nissan cars=TotalangleNissanangle×100%
Percentage of Nissan cars=360∘40∘×100%
Percentage of Nissan cars=91×100%
Percentage of Nissan cars≈11.11%
Approximately 11.11% of the cars parked are Nissan.
Question 4:
i) Find the value of x.
Step 1: The total number of people surveyed is 400. Sum the number of people for each newspaper and set it equal to the total.
150+100+75+x+25=400
350+x=400
x=400−350
x=50
The value of x is 50.
ii) Draw a pie chart for the distribution.
To draw a pie chart, we need to calculate the angle for each sector.
Step 1: Calculate the angle for each newspaper using the formula:
Angle=TotalpeopleNumberofpeople×360∘
• Graphic: 400150×360∘=135∘
• Ghanaian Times: 400100×360∘=90∘
• Mirror: 40075×360∘=67.5∘
• Daily Guide (x=50): 40050×360∘=45∘
• Free Press: 40025×360∘=22.5∘
Step 2: Sum the angles to verify they add up to 360∘.
135∘+90∘+67.5∘+45∘+22.5∘=360∘.
To draw the pie chart, use a compass to draw a circle. Then, use a protractor to measure and draw each angle from the center of the circle, labeling each sector with the newspaper name and its corresponding number of people or percentage.
Question 5:
i) Find angle y representing savings for the month.
Step 1: The sum of angles in a pie chart is 360∘. Add the given angles and subtract from 360∘ to find the angle for savings (y).
y∘+108∘+84∘+72∘+60∘=360∘
y∘+324∘=360∘
y∘=360∘−324∘
y∘=36∘
The angle representing savings is 36∘.
ii) What's the man's salary for the month?
Step 1: We are given that Gh¢180.00 was spent on rent, and the angle for rent is 72∘.
Step 2: Calculate the total salary using the proportion of the rent amount to its angle.
Total salary=RentangleTotalangle×Amount spent on rent
Total salary=72∘360∘×Gh¢180.00
Total salary=5×Gh¢180.00
Total salary=Gh¢900.00
The man's salary for the month is Gh¢900.00.
iii) By how much does expenditure on others exceed that on clothing.
Step 1: Calculate the amount spent on "Others". The angle for "Others" is 84∘.
Amount on Others=360∘84∘×Gh¢900.00
Amount on Others=0.2333...×Gh¢900.00
Amount on Others=Gh¢210.00
Step 2: Calculate the amount spent on "Clothing". The angle for "Clothing" is 60∘.
Amount on Clothing=360∘60∘×Gh¢900.00
Amount on Clothing=61×Gh¢900.00
Amount on Clothing=Gh¢150.00
Step 3: Find the difference between the expenditure on "Others" and "Clothing".
Difference=AmountonOthers−Amount on Clothing
Difference=Gh¢210.00−Gh¢150.00
Difference=Gh¢60.00
Expenditure on others exceeds that on clothing by Gh¢60.00.
