Part 14
The mathematical statement is .
Part a
What is the name given to this type of mathematical statement?
This is a polynomial of degree 2.
The name given to this type of mathematical statement is a .
Part b(i)
Quadratic term: This is the term containing .
From the mathematical statement, write down the
The quadratic term is .
Part b(ii)-7
Coefficient of the linear term: This is the number multiplying the term.
The linear term is , so its coefficient is .
The coefficient of the linear term is .
Part b(iii)-6
Constant term: This is the term without any variable.
The constant term is .
Part 15
The volume of a cube is given as . We need to calculate the length of one side of the cube using logarithm tables and give the answer correct to 1 decimal place.
Write the formula for the volume of a cube.
Let be the volume and be the length of one side.
Given .
So, .
To find , we take the cube root:Take the logarithm of both sides.
Using the logarithm property :
Find using logarithm tables.
The number 2445 has 4 digits, so the characteristic is .
From log tables, the mantissa for 244 is 0.3874.
The mean difference for 5 is 9.
So, .Find using logarithm tables.
The first non-zero digit in 0.106 is in the first decimal place, so the characteristic is (which is ).
From log tables, the mantissa for 106 is 0.0253.
So, .Calculate .
Calculate .
Find by taking the antilogarithm of 0.804533....
We use the mantissa 0.8045.
From antilog tables, for 0.804: the number is 6368.
The mean difference for 5 is 7.
Adding the mean difference: .
The characteristic of is 0, so the decimal point is placed after the first digit.Round the answer to 1 decimal place.
The length of one side of the cube is .
