Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $60\text{ cm}^2$

Cevap

60\text{ cm}^2

The area of a trapezium is given by

A = \frac{1}{2}(a + b)h

, where

a

and

b

are the parallel sides and

h

is the perpendicular distance between them. Substituting

a = 8

,

b = 12

, and

h = 6

gives

A = \frac{1}{2}(8 + 12)(6) = \frac{1}{2}(20)(6) = 60\text{ cm}^2

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the given dimensions and the formula for the area of a trapezium.

Parallel sides

a = 8\text{ cm}

,

b = 12\text{ cm}

, height

h = 6\text{ cm}

. Formula:

A = \frac{1}{2}(a + b)h

.

The area of a trapezium depends on the sum of its parallel sides and its perpendicular height.

2

Sum the parallel sides.

a + b = 8 + 12 = 20\text{ cm}

.

The average of the parallel sides forms the effective width of an equivalent rectangle.

3

Multiply by half of the height to find the total area.

A = \frac{1}{2} \times 20 \times 6 = 60\text{ cm}^2

.

Completing the formula gives the exact plane surface measure in square centimeters.

Complete the sentence below by supplying the correct prepositions in the blanks.

Aşağıdaki boşlukları doldurun

The tribunal declared that the submitted documentation was completely bereft credible financial records, rendering the director's defence tantamount an outright admission of corruption.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

The first blank requires 'of' to form the adjectival collocation 'bereft of', and the second blank requires 'to' to form the dependent prepositional structure 'tantamount to'.

The correct prepositions are 'of' for the first blank and 'to' for the second blank. In standard formal English, the adjective 'bereft' takes the dependent preposition 'of' to signify complete lack or deprivation. Similarly, the adjective 'tantamount' takes the fixed preposition 'to' when describing something that is equal in seriousness or significance to another thing.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Determine the required dependent preposition for the adjective 'bereft'.

The adjective 'bereft' strictly requires the preposition 'of' when indicating a state of being deprived of or lacking something.

Prepositions such as 'with', 'from', or 'in' are ungrammatical collocations when paired with 'bereft'.

2

Determine the required preposition for the adjective 'tantamount'.

The adjective 'tantamount' obligatorily pairs with 'to' when denoting equivalence in meaning, force, or effect.

Using 'with', 'for', or 'of' after 'tantamount' violates standard English prepositional rules.

A micrometer screw gauge has a pitch of $0.5\text{ mm}$ and $50$ divisions on its circular thimble scale. When the anvil and spindle are brought into contact without an object between them, the $47\text{th}$ division on the thimble scale aligns exactly with the datum line of the main scale. When used to measure the diameter of a uniform metal rod, the main scale reads $1.5\text{ mm}$ and the $18\text{th}$ division on the thimble scale aligns with the datum line. What is the true diameter of the metal rod?

1.65\text{ mm}

1.68\text{ mm}

1.71\text{ mm}

2.15\text{ mm}

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $1.71\text{ mm}$

Cevap

The true diameter of the metal rod is

1.71\text{ mm}

.

The least count of the micrometer is

0.01\text{ mm}

. Because the zero position when closed shows the

47\text{th}

division aligned, it has a negative zero error of

-0.03\text{ mm}

. Subtracting this negative error from the observed reading of

1.68\text{ mm}

gives

1.68 - (-0.03) = 1.71\text{ mm}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the least count (precision) of the micrometer screw gauge.

\text{Least count} = \frac{\text{Pitch}}{\text{Number of thimble divisions}} = \frac{0.5\text{ mm}}{50} = 0.01\text{ mm}

.

The least count determines the value of each thimble division.

2

Determine the zero error of the instrument.

Since the

47\text{th}

division coincides with the datum line when closed, the zero mark lies above the reference line.

\text{Zero error} = -(50 - 47) \times 0.01\text{ mm} = -0.03\text{ mm}

.

When the thimble zero mark has passed the datum line in the reverse direction, the instrument exhibits a negative zero error.

3

Calculate the observed reading from the main scale and thimble scale.

\text{Observed reading} = 1.5\text{ mm} + (18 \times 0.01\text{ mm}) = 1.5\text{ mm} + 0.18\text{ mm} = 1.68\text{ mm}

.

The observed reading is the sum of the main scale reading and the thimble scale reading.

4

Compute the true reading by correcting for zero error.

\text{True reading} = \text{Observed reading} - \text{Zero error} = 1.68\text{ mm} - (-0.03\text{ mm}) = 1.71\text{ mm}

.

True value is found by subtracting the zero error (including its sign) from the observed value.

. Next, sum the absolute deviations multiplied by their frequencies:

\sum f|x - \bar{x}| = 2(4) + 1(2) + 4(0) + 1(2) + 2(4) = 20

The investigative panel noted that leaking confidential executive files prior to the hearing would be highly prejudicial _____ the proceedings and completely subversive _____ established board protocol. Which pair of prepositions correctly completes the sentence?

against / to

to / of

for / about

toward / for

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: to / of

Cevap

The pair 'to / of' correctly completes the sentence because 'prejudicial to' and 'subversive of' are the fixed, standard prepositional collocations.

The correct option provides the exact prepositional collocations required by the adjectives: 'prejudicial to' means harmful or damaging to an outcome, and 'subversive of' means seeking to undermine an established authority or protocol.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the dependent preposition required by the formal adjective 'prejudicial'.

In formal academic and legal contexts, 'prejudicial' requires the preposition 'to' when taking an object (e.g., prejudicial to the proceedings).

Adjectives denoting harm or detriment, such as 'prejudicial', 'inimical', and 'detrimental', grammatically govern 'to'.

2

Identify the dependent preposition required by the adjective 'subversive'.

The adjective 'subversive' requires the preposition 'of' when followed by a noun phrase complement (e.g., subversive of protocol).

Adjectives and nouns indicating destruction, undermining, or overthrowing typically collocate with 'of'.

A sector of a circle of radius $14\text{ cm}$ subtends an angle of $90^\circ$ at the centre of the circle. What is the area of the sector in $\text{cm}^2$ ? (Take $\pi = \frac{22}{7}$ )

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 154

Cevap

The area of the sector is

154\text{ cm}^2

.

The area of a circular sector is given by

\text{Area} = \frac{\theta}{360^\circ} \times \pi r^2

. Substituting

\theta = 90^\circ

,

r = 14\text{ cm}

, and

\pi = \frac{22}{7}

yields

\frac{90}{360} \times \frac{22}{7} \times 14^2 = \frac{1}{4} \times 616 = 154\text{ cm}^2

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the formula for the area of a circular sector.

\text{Area} = \frac{\theta}{360^\circ} \times \pi r^2

The area of a sector is proportional to the central angle it subtends relative to a full circle (

360^\circ

).

2

Substitute the given values into the formula.

\text{Area} = \frac{90^\circ}{360^\circ} \times \frac{22}{7} \times (14)^2

Given radius

r = 14\text{ cm}

, angle

\theta = 90^\circ

, and

\pi = \frac{22}{7}

.

3

Simplify the fraction and calculate the numerical value.

\text{Area} = \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{22}{7} \times 196 = \frac{1}{4} \times 22 \times 28 = 22 \times 7 = 154\text{ cm}^2

Simplifying

\frac{90}{360}

yields

\frac{1}{4}

and dividing

196

by

7

gives

28

.

A curve is defined by the equation $y = x^2 - 6x + 11$ . What is the minimum value of $y$ on this curve?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 2

Cevap

The minimum value of

y

on the curve is 2.

Differentiating

y = x^2 - 6x + 11

gives

\frac{dy}{dx} = 2x - 6

. Setting this derivative to zero yields

2x - 6 = 0

, so

x = 3

. Substituting

x = 3

into the original function gives

y = (3)^2 - 6(3) + 11 = 2

. Since

\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = 2 > 0

, the point at

x = 3

is a local minimum, making 2 the minimum value of

y

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Find the first derivative of the curve function.

\frac{dy}{dx} = 2x - 6

Stationary points occur where the derivative is equal to zero.

2

Solve for the

x

-coordinate at the stationary point.

2x - 6 = 0 \implies x = 3

Setting the derivative to zero determines the input value where the slope is horizontal.

3

Calculate the corresponding

y

-value at

x = 3

.

y = (3)^2 - 6(3) + 11 = 2

Evaluating the original equation at

x = 3

yields the minimum value of

y

.

Cevap: $-1$

Cevap

The value of

m

is

-1

.

Multiplying the

2 \times 2

matrix by the

2 \times 1

column vector yields a

2 \times 1

result where the second row entry is

1(4) + m(-2) = 4 - 2m

. Setting this equal to the second row element

6

gives

4 - 2m = 6

, which simplifies to

m = -1

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Compute the matrix product

AB

AB = \begin{pmatrix} 2(4) + 3(-2) \\ 1(4) + m(-2) \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 8 - 6 \\ 4 - 2m \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 2 \\ 4 - 2m \end{pmatrix}

Matrix multiplication requires taking the dot product of each row of the first matrix with the column vector.

2

Equate the resulting vector to the given vector

\begin{pmatrix} 2 \\ 6 \end{pmatrix}

4 - 2m = 6

Corresponding elements of equal matrices must be equal.

3

Solve the linear equation for

m

-2m = 6 - 4 \Rightarrow -2m = 2 \Rightarrow m = -1

Isolating the variable

m

by subtracting

4

from both sides and dividing by

-2

The exact class marks are

14.5, 24.5, 34.5, 44.5,

and

54.5

. The total frequency is

\sum f = 18 + 2x

and the sum of products is

\sum f x = 651 + 79x

. Substituting these into

\bar{x} = \frac{\sum f x}{\sum f}

with

\bar{x} = 37.5

gives

675 + 75x = 651 + 79x

, which solves to

4x = 24

, giving the value

6

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Determine the class mark (midpoint

x_i

) for each class interval

The midpoints are

14.5, 24.5, 34.5, 44.5,

and

54.5

.

The class mark is calculated as

\frac{\text{Lower Limit} + \text{Upper Limit}}{2}

.

2

Calculate total frequency

\sum f

and total product sum

\sum f x_i

\sum f = 3 + x + 8 + 5 + (x + 2) = 18 + 2x

.

\sum f x_i = 3(14.5) + x(24.5) + 8(34.5) + 5(44.5) + (x+2)(54.5) = 43.5 + 24.5x + 276 + 222.5 + 54.5x + 109 = 651 + 79x

To compute the mean of grouped data, sum the products of each frequency and its corresponding class mark.

3

Set up the mean formula equation and solve for

x

\bar{x} = \frac{\sum f x_i}{\sum f} \implies 37.5 = \frac{651 + 79x}{18 + 2x}

37.5(18 + 2x) = 651 + 79x

675 + 75x = 651 + 79x

79x - 75x = 675 - 651

4x = 24 \implies x = 6

Equating the expression for mean to the given mean value

37.5\text{ kWh}

yields a linear equation in

x

.
