Step-by-step solution

25 steps
  1. Simplify the expression.

    33+33+33=3×333^3 + 3^3 + 3^3 = 3 \times 3^3

    Using the exponent rule am×an=am+na^m \times a^n = a^{m+n}, where 3=313 = 3^1:

    31×33=31+3=343^1 \times 3^3 = 3^{1+3} = 3^4

    The correct option is D.
    The final answer is D\boxed{\text{D}}.

  2. Find f(2)f(2).

    Given f(x)=1−2xf(x) = 1 - 2x.

    f(2)=1−2(2)=1−4=−3f(2) = 1 - 2(2) = 1 - 4 = -3
  3. Find ff(2)ff(2), which is f(f(2))f(f(2)).

    Substitute f(2)=−3f(2) = -3 into f(x)f(x):

    f(f(2))=f(−3)=1−2(−3)=1+6=7f(f(2)) = f(-3) = 1 - 2(-3) = 1 + 6 = 7

    The correct option is D.
    The final answer is D\boxed{\text{D}}.

  4. Use the formula for the exterior angle of a regular polygon.

    The formula for the exterior angle of a regular polygon is 360∘n\frac{360^\circ}{n}, where nn is the number of sides.
    Given that the exterior angle is 45∘45^\circ:

    45∘=360∘n45^\circ = \frac{360^\circ}{n}
  5. Solve for nn.

    n=360∘45∘n = \frac{360^\circ}{45^\circ} n=8n = 8

    The correct option is D.
    The final answer is D\boxed{\text{D}}.

  6. Use the formula for the area of a kite.

    The area of a kite is given by the formula A=12d1d2A = \frac{1}{2} d_1 d_2, where d1d_1 and d2d_2 are the lengths of the diagonals.
    Given d1=50 cmd_1 = 50 \text{ cm} and d2=80 cmd_2 = 80 \text{ cm}.

  7. Substitute the values and calculate the area.

    A=12(50 cm)(80 cm)A = \frac{1}{2} (50 \text{ cm})(80 \text{ cm}) A=12(4000 cm2)A = \frac{1}{2} (4000 \text{ cm}^2) A=2000 cm2A = 2000 \text{ cm}^2

    The correct option is C.
    The final answer is C\boxed{\text{C}}.

    The shaded region in the figure is a part of a circle bounded by an arc and a chord. This region is called a segment of a circle.
    The correct option is A.
    The final answer is A\boxed{\text{A}}.

  8. Set up an equation based on the given information.

    Let pp be the cost of a pen and bb be the cost of a book.
    The total cost for 2 pens and 5 books is 4,150 FCFA:

    2p+5b=41502p + 5b = 4150
  9. Substitute the cost of a book and solve for the cost of a pen.

    Given that a book costs 750 FCFA, so b=750b = 750.

    2p+5(750)=41502p + 5(750) = 4150 2p+3750=41502p + 3750 = 4150 2p=4150−37502p = 4150 - 3750 2p=4002p = 400 p=4002p = \frac{400}{2} p=200p = 200

    The cost of a pen is 200 FCFA.
    The correct option is D.
    The final answer is D\boxed{\text{D}}.

  10. Calculate the volume of one small cubic box.

    The side length of a small cubic box is 2 cm.
    Volume of small box (VsV_s) = side3=(2 cm)3=8 cm3^3 = (2 \text{ cm})^3 = 8 \text{ cm}^3.

  11. Calculate the volume of the big box.

    The dimensions of the big box are 6 cm long, 5 cm wide, and 8 cm high.
    Volume of big box (VbV_b) = length ×\times width ×\times height = 6 cm×5 cm×8 cm=240 cm36 \text{ cm} \times 5 \text{ cm} \times 8 \text{ cm} = 240 \text{ cm}^3.

  12. Determine the number of small boxes that can fit into the big box.

    Number of boxes = Volume of big boxVolume of small box\frac{\text{Volume of big box}}{\text{Volume of small box}}
    However, for "fitting exactly", we must consider how many boxes fit along each dimension.
    Number of boxes along length = 6 cm2 cm=3\frac{6 \text{ cm}}{2 \text{ cm}} = 3
    Number of boxes along width = 5 cm2 cm=2.5\frac{5 \text{ cm}}{2 \text{ cm}} = 2.5. Since we can only fit whole boxes, we take the floor of this value, which is 2.
    Number of boxes along height = 8 cm2 cm=4\frac{8 \text{ cm}}{2 \text{ cm}} = 4
    Total number of boxes = 3×2×4=243 \times 2 \times 4 = 24.

    Wait, the options are 15, 18, 30, 45. My calculation of 24 is not among the options. Let me re-read the question carefully. "fit exactly". This usually implies that the dimensions of the larger box are multiples of the smaller box's dimensions. If the width is 5cm and the small box side is 2cm, then 2.5 boxes fit along the width, meaning only 2 full boxes can fit. This leads to 24.

    Let's re-check the question and options. It's possible there's a slight misinterpretation or a typo in the question/options.
    If the question implies that the volume calculation is sufficient, then 240/8=30240/8 = 30. This matches option C.
    The phrasing "fit exactly" can be ambiguous. In packing problems, it usually means no gaps and dimensions must be multiples. However, in multiple-choice questions, sometimes the simpler volume division is expected if it leads to one of the options. Given the options, it's highly probable that the question intends for a simple volume division. If the boxes were to "fit exactly" without any wasted space, then the dimensions of the large box would have to be multiples of the small box's side length. Since 5 is not a multiple of 2, there would be wasted space if we packed them perfectly. However, if we consider the total volume, then 30 boxes would occupy 30×8=240 cm330 \times 8 = 240 \text{ cm}^3, which is the volume of the big box. This implies that the "fit exactly" refers to the total volume, not necessarily perfect alignment along all axes without any leftover space from the big box's dimensions.

    Let's assume the question implies volume division.
    Number of boxes = VbVs=240 cm38 cm3=30\frac{V_b}{V_s} = \frac{240 \text{ cm}^3}{8 \text{ cm}^3} = 30.
    This matches option C.
    The final answer is C\boxed{\text{C}}.

  13. Use the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle.

    The perimeter of a rectangle is P=2(l+w)P = 2(l + w), where ll is the length and ww is the width.
    Given P=64 cmP = 64 \text{ cm} and w=8 cmw = 8 \text{ cm}.

  14. Substitute the values and solve for the length ll.

    64=2(l+8)64 = 2(l + 8)

    Divide both sides by 2:

    32=l+832 = l + 8

    Subtract 8 from both sides:

    l=32−8l = 32 - 8 l=24 cml = 24 \text{ cm}

    The correct option is B.
    The final answer is B\boxed{\text{B}}.

  15. Calculate the slope (mm) of the line.

    The line passes through (x1,y1)=(0,3)(x_1, y_1) = (0,3) and (x2,y2)=(−5,−7)(x_2, y_2) = (-5,-7).
    The slope formula is m=y2−y1x2−x1m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}.

    m=−7−3−5−0=−10−5=2m = \frac{-7 - 3}{-5 - 0} = \frac{-10}{-5} = 2
  16. Use the slope-intercept form of a linear equation, y=mx+cy = mx + c.

    We know m=2m = 2.
    Since the line passes through (0,3)(0,3), this is the y-intercept, so c=3c = 3.
    Substitute mm and cc into the equation:

    y=2x+3y = 2x + 3

    The correct option is A.
    The final answer is A\boxed{\text{A}}.

  17. Apply the negative exponent rule.

    The rule is a−n=1ana^{-n} = \frac{1}{a^n}.

    (27)−13=12713(27)^{-\frac{1}{3}} = \frac{1}{27^{\frac{1}{3}}}
  18. Apply the fractional exponent rule.

    The rule is a1n=ana^{\frac{1}{n}} = \sqrt[n]{a}.

    2713=27327^{\frac{1}{3}} = \sqrt[3]{27}
  19. Calculate the cube root.

    273=3\sqrt[3]{27} = 3
  20. Substitute back into the expression.

    12713=13\frac{1}{27^{\frac{1}{3}}} = \frac{1}{3}

    The correct option is B.
    The final answer is B\boxed{\text{B}}.

  21. Use the Pythagorean identity to find sin⁡θ\sin\theta.

    The identity is sin⁡2θ+cos⁡2θ=1\sin^2\theta + \cos^2\theta = 1.
    Given cos⁡θ=45\cos\theta = \frac{4}{5}.

    sin⁡2θ+(45)2=1\sin^2\theta + \left(\frac{4}{5}\right)^2 = 1 sin⁡2θ+1625=1\sin^2\theta + \frac{16}{25} = 1 sin⁡2θ=1−1625\sin^2\theta = 1 - \frac{16}{25} sin⁡2θ=2525−1625\sin^2\theta = \frac{25}{25} - \frac{16}{25} sin⁡2θ=925\sin^2\theta = \frac{9}{25} sin⁡θ=925=35\sin\theta = \sqrt{\frac{9}{25}} = \frac{3}{5}

    (Assuming θ\theta is in a quadrant where sin⁡θ\sin\theta is positive, which is typical for these types of problems unless specified otherwise).

  22. Find csc⁡θ\csc\theta.

    The reciprocal identity is csc⁡θ=1sin⁡θ\csc\theta = \frac{1}{\sin\theta}.

    csc⁡θ=135=53\csc\theta = \frac{1}{\frac{3}{5}} = \frac{5}{3}

    The correct option is A.
    The final answer is A\boxed{\text{A}}.

  23. Determine the fraction of students who are boys.

    If 25\frac{2}{5} of the students are girls, then the remaining fraction are boys.
    Fraction of boys = 1−25=55−25=351 - \frac{2}{5} = \frac{5}{5} - \frac{2}{5} = \frac{3}{5}.

  24. Use the number of boys to find the total number of students.

    Let TT be the total number of students in the class.
    We are given that the number of boys is 54.

    35T=54\frac{3}{5} T = 54 T=54×53T = 54 \times \frac{5}{3} T=18×5T = 18 \times 5 T=90T = 90

    So, there are 90 students in total.

  25. Calculate the number of girls.

    Number of girls = 25×T\frac{2}{5} \times T
    Number of girls = 25×90\frac{2}{5} \times 90
    Number of girls = 2×182 \times 18
    Number of girls = 36
    The correct option is B.
    The final answer is B\boxed{\text{B}}.
