Step-by-step solution
15 stepsHere are the solutions to your problems:
1. Solve the following simultaneous equation using elimination:
Add equation (1) and equation (2) to eliminate .
Solve for .
Substitute the value of into equation (1) to find .
The solution is .
2. In a shooting range, the target is placed 320 m away from the shooting point. If the bullet took seconds to hit the target, what was the average speed of the bullet?
Identify the given values.
Distance () = 320 m
Time () = s = 2.5 sUse the formula for average speed.
Calculate the average speed.
The average speed of the bullet was .
3. On a given map with scale of 1:600, a rectangular shape was measuring 6 cm by 2.5 cm. Find the actual area of the rectangular shape in square metres.
Convert the map dimensions to actual dimensions using the scale 1:600.
Actual length = Map length Scale factor
Actual length =
Actual width = Map width Scale factor
Actual width =Convert the actual dimensions from centimeters to meters.
(1 m = 100 cm)
Actual length in meters =
Actual width in meters =Calculate the actual area in square meters.
The actual area of the rectangular shape is .
4. Solve
Cross-multiply to eliminate the denominators.
Distribute the numbers on both sides of the equation.
Gather terms on one side and constant terms on the other side.
Solve for .
The solution is .
5. Factorise
Find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the terms $4y$ and 144.
The GCF of 4 and 144 is 4.
Factor out the GCF from the expression.
The factorised expression is .
