A variable $y$ is partly constant and partly varies directly as $\sqrt{x}$ . Given that $y = 26$ when $x = 16$ , and $y = 38$ when $x = 49$ , what is the value of $y$ when $x = 64$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 42

Cevap

The value of

y

when

x = 64

is

42

.

The relationship is given by the partial variation equation

y = a + b\sqrt{x}

. Substituting the pairs

(16, 26)

and

(49, 38)

yields the linear system

a + 4b = 26

and

a + 7b = 38

. Solving this system gives the constants

a = 10

and

b = 4

. Substituting

x = 64

into

y = 10 + 4\sqrt{64}

results in

y = 10 + 4(8) = 42

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Formulate the partial variation equation.

y = a + b\sqrt{x}

, where

a

and

b

are constants of variation.

Partial variation implies

y

is the sum of a constant term

a

and a term directly proportional to

\sqrt{x}

.

2

Set up simultaneous equations using the given pairs of

(x, y)

.

Equation 1:

a + 4b = 26

Equation 2:

a + 7b = 38

Evaluating

\sqrt{16} = 4

and

\sqrt{49} = 7

simplifies the relationship into two linear equations in two unknowns.

3

Solve for constants

a

and

b

.

b = 4

and

a = 10

Subtracting Equation 1 from Equation 2 yields

3b = 12 \implies b = 4

, and substituting

b = 4

back into Equation 1 gives

a = 10

.

4

Calculate

y

when

x = 64

.

y = 10 + 4(8) = 42

Using the specific formula

y = 10 + 4\sqrt{x}

for

x = 64

gives

y = 10 + 32 = 42

.

4\sin(2x)\cos(2x)

to

2\sin(4x)

using double-angle identities and integrating

6x^2 - 4x^{-2} + 2\sin(4x)

1

Use the double-angle trigonometric identity to simplify the product term.

4\sin(2x)\cos(2x) = 2(2\sin(2x)\cos(2x)) = 2\sin(4x)

Applying the double-angle identity

\sin(2\theta) = 2\sin\theta\cos\theta

transforms the product into a standard single sine term.

Express the reciprocal power with a negative exponent.

-\frac{4}{x^2} = -4x^{-2}

Rewriting the fraction in index form allows the power rule of integration to be applied directly.

3

Integrate each component term using standard integration formulas.

\int 6x^2 dx = 2x^3

,

\int -4x^{-2} dx = \frac{-4x^{-1}}{-1} = \frac{4}{x}

, and

\int 2\sin(4x) dx = 2\left(-\frac{1}{4}\cos(4x)\right) = -\frac{1}{2}\cos(4x)

Cevap: 3

Cevap

The first term of the AP is 3.

By expressing the 2nd, 4th, and 8th terms as

a+d

,

a+3d

, and

a+7d

, the geometric mean condition

(a+3d)^2 = (a+d)(a+7d)

reduces to

d = a

. Substituting

d = a

into the sum formula

S_5 = 5(a+2d) = 45

gives

15a = 45

, yielding a first term of 3.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Express the 2nd, 4th, and 8th terms of the AP in terms of first term

a

and common difference

d

T_2 = a + d

,

T_4 = a + 3d

, and

T_8 = a + 7d

The

n

-th term of an AP is given by

T_n = a + (n-1)d

.

2

Apply the condition for consecutive terms of a GP

(a + 3d)^2 = (a + d)(a + 7d) \implies a^2 + 6ad + 9d^2 = a^2 + 8ad + 7d^2 \implies 2d^2 = 2ad \implies d = a

If three terms

x, y, z

form a GP, then

y^2 = xz

. Since

d \neq 0

, dividing by

2d

gives

d = a

.

3

Use the sum of the first 5 terms of the AP to set up an equation for

a

and

d

S_5 = \frac{5}{2}[2a + 4d] = 45 \implies 5(a + 2d) = 45 \implies a + 2d = 9

The sum of the first

n

terms of an AP is

S_n = \frac{n}{2}[2a + (n-1)d]

.

4

Substitute

d = a

into the sum equation to solve for

a

a + 2(a) = 9 \implies 3a = 9 \implies a = 3

Substituting

d = a

simplifies the linear equation to solve directly for

a

.

The median score of the dataset is

2.5

.

To find the median, we first find the missing frequency

k

using the mean formula

\text{Mean} = \frac{\sum fx}{\sum f}

. Setting

\frac{23 + 3k}{10 + k} = 2.5

gives

k = 4

. With

k = 4

, the total number of observations is

N = 14

. The median is the average of the 7th and 8th scores in the ordered dataset. From cumulative frequencies, the 7th score is

2

and the 8th score is

3

. Thus, the median is

\frac{2 + 3}{2} = 2.5

.

k

\text{Mean} = \frac{\sum fx}{\sum f} = \frac{1(4) + 2(3) + 3(k) + 4(2) + 5(1)}{4 + 3 + k + 2 + 1} = \frac{23 + 3k}{10 + k} = 2.5

The mean of an ungrouped frequency table is the sum of all values divided by total frequency.

2

Solve the linear equation for

k

23 + 3k = 2.5(10 + k) \implies 23 + 3k = 25 + 2.5k \implies 0.5k = 2 \implies k = 4

Cross-multiplying and grouping like terms isolates the variable

Cevap: $252^\circ$

Cevap

The bearing of the control post

X

from the lookout tower

Y

is

252^\circ

.

The bearing of

Y

from

X

is

072^\circ

. To find the bearing of

X

from

Y

(the back bearing), we add

180^\circ

to the forward bearing because

072^\circ

is less than

180^\circ

. Calculation:

072^\circ + 180^\circ = 252^\circ

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the forward bearing of point

Y

from point

X

.

Forward bearing =

072^\circ

.

The question states that

Y

is observed from

X

on a bearing of

072^\circ

.

2

Apply the rule for finding a back bearing when the forward bearing is less than

180^\circ

.

Back bearing =

\text{Forward bearing} + 180^\circ = 072^\circ + 180^\circ = 252^\circ

.

Since

072^\circ < 180^\circ

, we add

180^\circ

to determine the reverse direction from North at point

Y

.

What is the value of $(-38) \pmod{7}$ expressed in standard non-negative remainder form?

4

-3

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 4

Cevap

4

The value

4

is correct because

-38 = 7 \times (-6) + 4

. The remainder

4

lies in the standard non-negative range

0 \le r < 7

. Alternatively, adding multiples of

7

to

-38

gives

-38 + 35 = -3

, and adding

7

once more gives

-3 + 7 = 4

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Find the largest multiple of the modulus

7

that is less than or equal to

-38

.

The multiple is

7 \times (-6) = -42

.

Modular arithmetic requires the remainder

r

to satisfy

0 \le r < 7

in standard form.

2

Calculate the remainder by subtracting the multiple from the dividend.

-38 - (-42) = -38 + 42 = 4

.

The remainder is the non-negative difference between the number and the multiple of the modulus.

The 3rd term of an arithmetic progression (AP) is $14$ and its 7th term is $34$ . If the $n$ -th term of this AP is equal to the 4th term of a geometric progression (GP) whose first term is $2$ and common ratio is $3$ , what is the value of $n$ ?

Cevap: 11

Cevap

The value of

n

is

11

.

The AP has first term

a = 4

and common difference

d = 5

, giving

T_n = 4 + 5(n-1) = 5n - 1

. The 4th term of the GP is

2 \times 3^{3} = 54

. Setting

5n - 1 = 54

gives

5n = 55

, so

n = 11

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Find the first term

a

and common difference

d

of the arithmetic progression.

a = 4

and

d = 5

The

n

-th term of an AP is given by

T_n = a + (n-1)d

. Using given terms:

T_3 = a + 2d = 14

and

T_7 = a + 6d = 34

. Subtracting the first equation from the second yields

4d = 20 \Rightarrow d = 5

. Substituting

d = 5

into

a + 2(5) = 14

gives

a = 4

.

2

Calculate the 4th term of the geometric progression (

G_4

).

G_4 = 54

The

m

-th term of a GP is given by

G_m = a_{gp} \cdot r^{m-1}

. With first term

a_{gp} = 2

and ratio

r = 3

,

G_4 = 2 \cdot 3^{4-1} = 2 \cdot 3^3 = 2 \cdot 27 = 54

.

3

Equate

T_n

to

G_4

and solve for

n

.

n = 11

Set

T_n = G_4 \Rightarrow 4 + (n-1)5 = 54

. Simplifying gives

(n-1)5 = 50 \Rightarrow n-1 = 10 \Rightarrow n = 11

.

What is the larger real value of $x$ that satisfies the logarithmic equation $\log_x 8 + \log_4 x = \frac{5}{2}$ ?

8

4

6

16

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 8

Cevap

The larger value of

x

that satisfies the equation is 8.

Using the change of base rule

\log_a b = \frac{\log_c b}{\log_c a}

, we express both logarithmic terms in base 2:

\log_x 8 = \frac{3}{\log_2 x}

and

\log_4 x = \frac{\log_2 x}{2}

. Setting

y = \log_2 x

gives

\frac{3}{y} + \frac{y}{2} = \frac{5}{2}

. Multiplying by

2y

yields

y^2 - 5y + 6 = 0

, which factors as

(y-2)(y-3) = 0

. Thus,

y = 2

or

y = 3

, giving solutions

x = 2^2 = 4

and

x = 2^3 = 8

. The larger solution is 8.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Apply the change of base formula to express all logarithmic terms in base 2.

\log_x 8 = \frac{\log_2 8}{\log_2 x} = \frac{3}{\log_2 x} \quad \text{and} \quad \log_4 x = \frac{\log_2 x}{\log_2 4} = \frac{1}{2}\log_2 x

Converting all terms to a common base (base 2) allows algebraic simplification.

2

Substitute

y = \log_2 x

into the given equation.

\frac{3}{y} + \frac{y}{2} = \frac{5}{2}

Using substitution converts the logarithmic expression into a rational algebraic equation.

3

Multiply the entire equation by

2y

to clear denominators and form a quadratic equation.

6 + y^2 = 5y \implies y^2 - 5y + 6 = 0

Clearing denominators transforms the relation into standard quadratic form.

4

Factor the quadratic equation to find the values of

y

.

(y - 2)(y - 3) = 0 \implies y = 2 \text{ or } y = 3

Factoring determines the possible powers of 2 for

x

.

5

Solve for

x

using

y = \log_2 x

and select the larger value.

x = 2^2 = 4 \quad \text{or} \quad x = 2^3 = 8. \text{ The larger value is } 8.

Converting back from

y

to

x

yields the final solutions for

x

.
