Question 3
The total wage, , earned by a worker in a week is given by the formula , where is the total wage in Ghana cedis and is the number of hours worked.
- (i) Find the wage for 20 hours.
Substitute into the formula.
$$ W = 15(20) + 50 $$Calculate the wage.
$$ W = 300 + 50 $$ $$ W = 350 $$ The wage for 20 hours is $\boxed{\text{GHC 350.00}}$.- (ii) If the worker did 35 hours of work, what would be the wage?
Substitute into the formula.
$$ W = 15(35) + 50 $$Calculate the wage.
$$ W = 525 + 50 $$ $$ W = 575 $$ The wage for 35 hours of work is $\boxed{\text{GHC 575.00}}$.- (iii) How long will it take for the wage to reach GHC 500.00?
Set in the formula.
$$ 500 = 15h + 50 $$Subtract 50 from both sides.
$$ 500 - 50 = 15h $$ $$ 450 = 15h $$Divide by 15 to solve for .
$$ h = \frac{450}{15} $$ $$ h = 30 $$ It will take $\boxed{\text{30 hours}}$ for the wage to reach GHC 500.00.Vector Problem
Given and , find:- (i)
Calculate .
$$ 2\mathbf{p} = 2 \begin{pmatrix} 6 \\ -2 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 2 \times 6 \\ 2 \times -2 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 12 \\ -4 \end{pmatrix} $$Subtract from .
$$ 2\mathbf{p} - \mathbf{q} = \begin{pmatrix} 12 \\ -4 \end{pmatrix} - \begin{pmatrix} -4 \\ 3 \end{pmatrix} $$ $$ 2\mathbf{p} - \mathbf{q} = \begin{pmatrix} 12 - (-4) \\ -4 - 3 \end{pmatrix} $$ $$ 2\mathbf{p} - \mathbf{q} = \begin{pmatrix} 12 + 4 \\ -7 \end{pmatrix} $$ $$ 2\mathbf{p} - \mathbf{q} = \boxed{\begin{pmatrix} 16 \\ -7 \end{pmatrix}} $$- (ii) the magnitude of .
Use the formula for the magnitude of a vector , which is .
For $\mathbf{p} = \begin{pmatrix} 6 \\ -2 \end{pmatrix}$, $x=6$ and $y=-2$. $$ ||\mathbf{p}|| = \sqrt{6^2 + (-2)^2} $$Calculate the squares.
$$ ||\mathbf{p}|| = \sqrt{36 + 4} $$Add and find the square root.
$$ ||\mathbf{p}|| = \sqrt{40} $$ $$ ||\mathbf{p}|| = \sqrt{4 \times 10} = 2\sqrt{10} $$ The magnitude of $\mathbf{p}$ is $\boxed{2\sqrt{10}}$.The image also shows a table with "Packages (x)" and "Customers (f)", but the question related to this table is not visible.
