Here are the solutions to the questions:

1. a)

Part i· 3 steps

List the elements in set 'A' and 'B'.

  1. Define the universal set UU.

    U={Odd numbers less than 19}U = \{\text{Odd numbers less than 19}\}
    U={1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15,17}U = \{1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17\}

  2. Define set AA.

    A={Factors of 15}A = \{\text{Factors of 15}\}
    The factors of 15 are the numbers that divide 15 exactly.
    A={1,3,5,15}A = \{1, 3, 5, 15\}

  3. Define set BB.

    B={Prime numbers}B = \{\text{Prime numbers}\} (within UU)
    Prime numbers in UU are numbers greater than 1 that are only divisible by 1 and themselves.
    B={3,5,7,11,13,17}B = \{3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17\}
    The elements in set A are {1,3,5,15}\boxed{\{1, 3, 5, 15\}} and in set B are {3,5,7,11,13,17}\boxed{\{3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17\}}.

Part ii

{3,5}\{3, 5\}

Find the set of A∩BA \cap B and A∪BA \cup B.

  1. Find the intersection A∩BA \cap B.

    A∩BA \cap B contains elements common to both AA and BB.
    A={1,3,5,15}A = \{1, 3, 5, 15\}
    B={3,5,7,11,13,17}B = \{3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17\}
    A∩B={3,5}A \cap B = \{3, 5\}

  2. Find the union A∪BA \cup B.

    A∪BA \cup B contains all elements in AA or BB (or both).
    A∪B={1,3,5,7,11,13,15,17}A \cup B = \{1, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 15, 17\}
    The set A∩BA \cap B is {3,5}\boxed{\{3, 5\}} and A∪BA \cup B is {1,3,5,7,11,13,15,17}\boxed{\{1, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 15, 17\}}.

Part iii· 3 steps

Illustrate U, A and B on a Venn diagram.

  1. Draw a rectangle to represent the universal set UU.

  2. Draw two overlapping circles inside the rectangle, one for set AA and one for set BB.

  3. Place the elements in the correct regions

    • A∩B={3,5}A \cap B = \{3, 5\} (in the overlap)
    • Elements in AA only: A∖B={1,15}A \setminus B = \{1, 15\}
    • Elements in BB only: B∖A={7,11,13,17}B \setminus A = \{7, 11, 13, 17\}
    • Elements in UU but not in AA or BB: U∖(A∪B)={9}U \setminus (A \cup B) = \{9\}
          U

    |         |       |   |13,17}|   |
    |         +-------+   +-------+   |
    |                                 |
    |             {9}                 |

Part iv4

Shade the region for prime factors of 15 on the Venn diagram.

  1. Identify the prime factors of 15.

    The prime factors of 15 are 3 and 5.

  2. Locate these elements on the Venn diagram.

    The elements 3 and 5 are in the intersection of sets AA and BB (A∩BA \cap B).

  3. Shade the region representing A∩BA \cap B.

    1. b) Find the value of xx if 3x−1=273^{x-1} = 27.

  4. Express 27 as a power of 3.

    27=3327 = 3^3
  5. Rewrite the equation with the same base.

    3x−1=333^{x-1} = 3^3
  6. Equate the exponents.

    x−1=3x - 1 = 3
  7. Solve for xx.

    x=3+1x = 3 + 1 x=4x = 4

    The value of xx is 4\boxed{4}.

    2. a) Determine the combination of GH¢20, GH¢50, GH¢100, GH¢200 and GH¢500 notes to make GH¢1,000,000.
    This question asks for a combination. Here is one possible combination:

  8. Use GH¢500 notes.

    Number of GH¢500 notes = GH¢500,000GH¢500=1,000\frac{\text{GH}\text{¢}500,000}{\text{GH}\text{¢}500} = 1,000 notes.
    Remaining amount = GH¢1,000,000−GH¢500,000=GH¢500,000\text{GH}\text{¢}1,000,000 - \text{GH}\text{¢}500,000 = \text{GH}\text{¢}500,000.

  9. Use GH¢200 notes.

    Number of GH¢2
