Cevap: $2.8$

Cevap

2.8

The mean deviation is calculated by taking the average of the absolute differences between each data point and the mean. For the dataset

2, 4, 5, 7,

and

12

, the mean is

6

. The absolute deviations from

6

are

4, 2, 1, 1,

and

6

, which sum to

14

. Dividing

14

by

5

gives

2.8

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the arithmetic mean (

\bar{x}

) of the dataset.

\bar{x} = \frac{2 + 4 + 5 + 7 + 12}{5} = \frac{30}{5} = 6

The mean is needed as the reference point to calculate deviations.

2

Calculate the absolute deviation

|x - \bar{x}|

for each data item.

|2 - 6| = 4, \quad |4 - 6| = 2, \quad |5 - 6| = 1, \quad |7 - 6| = 1, \quad |12 - 6| = 6

Mean deviation measures distance from the mean, so absolute values are taken.

3

Find the average of these absolute deviations.

\text{Mean Deviation} = \frac{4 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 6}{5} = \frac{14}{5} = 2.8

The formula for mean deviation of ungrouped data is

31.0\text{ g}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Determine the class midpoint (

x

) for each class interval.

Midpoints are:

\frac{10+19}{2} = 14.5

,

\frac{20+29}{2} = 24.5

,

\frac{30+39}{2} = 34.5

, and

\frac{40+49}{2} = 44.5

.

For grouped frequency data, each interval is represented by its central value (class mark or midpoint).

2

Multiply each midpoint (

x

) by its corresponding frequency (

f

) to calculate

fx

.

f_1 x_1 = 3 \times 14.5 = 43.5

,

f_2 x_2 = 5 \times 24.5 = 122.5

,

f_3 x_3 = 8 \times 34.5 = 276.0

,

f_4 x_4 = 4 \times 44.5 = 178.0

.

This computes the total mass contributed by the items in each interval.

3

Calculate the total sum of

fx

and total frequency

\sum f

.

\sum fx = 43.5 + 122.5 + 276.0 + 178.0 = 620.0

and

\sum f = 3 + 5 + 8 + 4 = 20

.

These sums are the numerator and denominator required for the mean formula.

4

Compute the mean using

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

.

\bar{x} = \frac{620.0}{20} = 31.0\text{ g}

.

Dividing the total weighted value by the total number of items gives the mean.

Cevap: $2$

Cevap

The value of

a

is

2

.

To find

a

, take the first derivative of the curve, yielding

\frac{dy}{dx} = 3ax^2 + 2bx + 12

. Setting this to zero gives a quadratic equation with roots

x = 1

and

x = 2

. The product of roots for a quadratic equation

Ax^2 + Bx + C = 0

is

\frac{C}{A}

. Therefore,

1 \times 2 = \frac{12}{3a}

, which simplifies to

2 = \frac{4}{a}

, giving

a = 2

.

1

Find the derivative of the given curve with respect to

x

\frac{dy}{dx} = 3ax^2 + 2bx + 12

Stationary points occur where the first derivative

\frac{dy}{dx} = 0

.

2

Set the derivative to zero and substitute the stationary point locations

x = 1

and

x = 2

.

The roots of the quadratic equation

3ax^2 + 2bx + 12 = 0

are

x_1 = 1

and

x_2 = 2

.

Since stationary points are given at

x=1

and

x=2

, these values satisfy

\frac{dy}{dx} = 0

.

3

Apply the product of roots formula for a quadratic equation

Ax^2 + Bx + C = 0

, where

x_1 \cdot x_2 = \frac{C}{A}

.

1 \times 2 = \frac{12}{3a} \implies 2 = \frac{4}{a}

Equating the product of roots

1 \times 2 = 2

to

\frac{12}{3a}

isolates parameter

a = 2

Multiplying both sides by

Cevap: 90

Cevap

The total number of candidates who registered for Further Mathematics is 90.

To calculate the number of candidates represented by a pie chart sector, multiply the total count by the ratio of the sector's central angle to 360 degrees: (45 / 360) * 720 = 90 candidates.

According to the Factor Theorem,

(x + 3)

is a factor of

P(x)

if

P(-3) = 0

. Substituting

x = -3

into

P(x) = x^3 + 4x^2 + mx - 6

yields

(-3)^3 + 4(-3)^2 + m(-3) - 6 = 0

, which simplifies to

-27 + 36 - 3m - 6 = 0

, giving

3 - 3m = 0

and thus

m = 1

1

Apply the Factor Theorem

P(-3) = 0

By the Factor Theorem, for a linear divisor

(x - a)

to be a factor of

x + 3 = 0 \implies x = -3

.

Substitute

x = -3

into

P(x) = x^3 + 4x^2 + mx - 6

(-3)^3 + 4(-3)^2 + m(-3) - 6 = 0

Evaluating

Cevap: 12

Cevap

The numerical value of the derivative at

x = 2

is 12.

Applying the first principles limit formula

\lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+h) - f(x)}{h}

to

f(x) = 2x^3 - 3x^2 + 4

yields

f'(x) = 6x^2 - 6x

. Evaluating this derivative function at

x = 2

yields

6(4) - 12 = 12

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up the difference quotient using the definition of differentiation from first principles

f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{[2(x+h)^3 - 3(x+h)^2 + 4] - [2x^3 - 3x^2 + 4]}{h}

Differentiation from first principles evaluates the limit of the rate of change as the increment

h

approaches zero.

2

Expand

(x+h)^3

and

(x+h)^2

and subtract

f(x)

f(x+h) - f(x) = 6x^2h + 6xh^2 + 2h^3 - 6xh - 3h^2

Expanding the terms allows cancellation of all terms not containing

h

.

3

Divide by

h

and evaluate the limit as

h \to 0

f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} (6x^2 + 6xh + 2h^2 - 6x - 3h) = 6x^2 - 6x

Dividing by

h

eliminates the indeterminate form

\frac{0}{0}

, allowing direct substitution of

h = 0

.

4

Substitute

x = 2

into the derivative function

f'(x)

f'(2) = 6(2)^2 - 6(2) = 24 - 12 = 12

Evaluating at the given point gives the slope of the tangent line at

9 diagonals

The total sum of interior angles of an

n

-sided polygon is

(n - 2) \times 180^\circ

. Setting this equal to

3(90^\circ) + (n - 3)(150^\circ)

simplifies to

180n - 360 = 150n - 180

, which solves to

n = 6

. Substituting

n = 6

into the diagonal formula

D = \frac{n(n - 3)}{2}

yields

\frac{6 \times 3}{2} = 9

diagonals.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Formulate the interior angle sum equation for the

n

-sided convex polygon.

The total interior angle sum is

(n - 2) \times 180^\circ

. Summing the individual angles gives

3 \times 90^\circ + (n - 3) \times 150^\circ

. Thus:

(n - 2) \times 180^\circ = 270^\circ + (n - 3) \times 150^\circ

.

The sum of all interior angles of any

n

-sided polygon is given by

(n - 2) \times 180^\circ

.

2

Solve the equation for the number of sides

n

.

180n - 360 = 270 + 150n - 450 \implies 180n - 360 = 150n - 180 \implies 30n = 180 \implies n = 6

.

Expanding terms and isolating

n

reveals that the polygon has 6 sides (a hexagon).

3

Calculate the total number of diagonals using the formula

D = \frac{n(n - 3)}{2}

.

D = \frac{6(6 - 3)}{2} = \frac{6 \times 3}{2} = 9

.

Each of the

n

vertices can connect to

n - 3

non-adjacent vertices, and dividing by 2 avoids double-counting each diagonal line segment.

1

Identify the conditions required for a quadratic expression

If

a < 0

, the parabola opens downwards and yields negative values. If

\Delta \ge 0

, the quadratic has real roots or a double root, taking non-positive values.

Apply the first condition

a > 0

. Setting

-36(k + 1) < 0

.

Ensures the quadratic equation has no real roots and does not cross or touch the x-axis.

4

Solve the linear inequality

-36(k + 1) < 0

Dividing by

-36

reverses the inequality:

k + 1 > 0 \implies k > -1

The cardinality of the set

(A \cup B)' \cap C

The set

(A \cup B)' \cap C

represents elements in

C

that are neither in

A

nor in

B

. Set

C

contains 18 even integers up to 36. Among these 18 numbers, three are perfect squares (4, 16, 36) and six are multiples of 3 (6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36). Since 36 satisfies both conditions, the total number of even numbers in

A \cup B

is

3 + 6 - 1 = 8

. Subtracting these 8 elements from 18 leaves 10 elements.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the elements of set C (even numbers in the universal set)

C = \{2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30, 32, 34, 36\}

, so

n(C) = 18

.

The complement set operation is restricted to elements within set C.

2

Find the elements of set C that belong to set A (even perfect squares)

C \cap A = \{4, 16, 36\}

, so

n(C \cap A) = 3

.

Identify which elements in C must be excluded due to being perfect squares.

3

Find the elements of set C that belong to set B (even multiples of 3, i.e., multiples of 6)

C \cap B = \{6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36\}

, so

n(C \cap B) = 6

.

Identify which elements in C must be excluded due to being multiples of 3.

4

Find the overlap between the excluded sets within C

C \cap A \cap B = \{36\}

, so

n(C \cap A \cap B) = 1

.

Avoid double-counting 36 when subtracting excluded elements.

5

Calculate

n(C \cap (A \cup B))

using inclusion-exclusion and find the remaining complement elements in C

n(C \cap (A \cup B)) = 3 + 6 - 1 = 8

. Therefore,

n((A \cup B)' \cap C) = 18 - 8 = 10

.

Subtracting the 8 excluded even numbers from the total 18 even numbers yields the final cardinality.

\frac{3\left(\frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}\right) + 1}{\frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} + 2} = \frac{3\tan \theta + 1}{\tan \theta + 2}

.

Using the trigonometric identity

\tan \theta = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}

simplifies the calculation without needing to evaluate the hypotenuse.

If $y = (x^2 - 2x + 2)^3$ , what is the numerical value of $\frac{dy}{dx}$ evaluated at $x = 2$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 24

Cevap

24

Applying the chain rule gives

\frac{dy}{dx} = 3(x^2 - 2x + 2)^2(2x - 2)

. Evaluating this derivative at

x = 2

yields

3(2)^2(2) = 24

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the composite structure and state the chain rule formula.

Let

u = x^2 - 2x + 2

, so

y = u^3

. By the chain rule,

\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{dy}{du} \cdot \frac{du}{dx}

.

The function is an expression raised to a power, requiring the chain rule.

2

Differentiate the outer function with respect to

u

and the inner function with respect to

x

.

\frac{dy}{du} = 3(x^2 - 2x + 2)^2 and \frac{du}{dx} = 2x - 2.

Apply the power rule to both the outer expression and inner polynomial.

3

Multiply the two derivatives to express

\frac{dy}{dx}

.

\frac{dy}{dx} = 3(x^2 - 2x + 2)^2(2x - 2).

Product of outer and inner derivatives per the chain rule.

4

Evaluate the expression at

x = 2

.

\frac{dy}{dx}\Big|_{x=2} = 3(4 - 4 + 2)^2(4 - 2) = 3(2)^2(2) = 24.

Substitute

x = 2

into the derivative expression and simplify.

Cevap: 4

Cevap

4

Multiplying both the top and bottom by the conjugate

(3\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{11})

transforms the denominator into

(3\sqrt{2})^2 - (\sqrt{11})^2 = 18 - 11 = 7

. Dividing the numerator

7(3\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{11})

by

7

simplifies to

3\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{11}

. Matching coefficients yields

a = 3

and

b = 1

, giving

a + b = 4

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator,

(3\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{11})

.

\frac{7(3\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{11})}{(3\sqrt{2} - \sqrt{11})(3\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{11})}

Rationalising the denominator eliminates radicals from the bottom of the fraction.

2

Expand the denominator using the difference of squares formula

(x - y)(x + y) = x^2 - y^2

.

(3\sqrt{2})^2 - (\sqrt{11})^2 = (9 \times 2) - 11 = 18 - 11 = 7

Squaring each term simplifies the denominator into an integer.

3

Simplify the overall rational fraction by cancelling common factors.

\frac{7(3\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{11})}{7} = 3\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{11}

The factor of 7 in the numerator and denominator cancels out.

4

Equate

3\sqrt{2} + 1\sqrt{11}

with

a\sqrt{2} + b\sqrt{11}

to determine the values of

a

and

b

, then sum them.

a = 3, b = 1 \implies a + b = 3 + 1 = 4

The 75th percentile (

Q_3

) mass of the cocoa beans is

43.5\text{ g}

.

To find the 75th percentile (

Q_3

) from cumulative frequency data, calculate the rank

\frac{75}{100} \times 100 = 75

. This falls into the

40 - 49

class interval (boundaries

Applying the logarithm quotient law reduces

\log_2(x^2 - 1) - \log_2(x - 1)

to

\log_2\left(\frac{x^2 - 1}{x - 1}\right)

. Factoring

x^2 - 1

into

(x - 1)(x + 1)

and canceling

(x - 1)

leaves

\log_2(x + 1) = 3

1

Apply the quotient rule for logarithms to combine the left-hand side into a single logarithmic expression.

\log_2\left(\frac{x^2 - 1}{x - 1}\right) = 3

According to logarithmic rules, the difference of two logarithms of the same base is equal to the logarithm of their quotient:

\log_b A - \log_b B = \log_b\left(\frac{A}{B}\right)

.

2

Factor the numerator as a difference of two squares and simplify the rational expression.

\log_2(x + 1) = 3

Since

x^2 - 1 = (x - 1)(x + 1)

, dividing by

(x - 1)

leaves

(x + 1)

437.5 W

The partial variation equation is

P = k_1 + k_2 v^2

. Setting up simultaneous equations

k_1 + 100 k_2 = 250

and

k_1 + 400 k_2 = 700

yields

k_1 = 100

and

k_2 = 1.5

. Substituting

v = 15

into

P = 100 + 1.5(15^2)

gives

P = 437.5\text{ W}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Express the partial variation mathematically.

P = k_1 + k_2 v^2

, where

k_1

and

k_2

are constants.

The total power consumption is the sum of a fixed baseline constant

k_1

and a variable component proportional to

v^2

.

2

Form simultaneous linear equations using the provided data points.

k_1 + 100 k_2 = 250

and

k_1 + 400 k_2 = 700

.

Substituting

v = 10

gives

10^2 = 100

, and substituting

v = 20

gives

20^2 = 400

.

Solve for the constants

k_1

and

k_2

.

k_2 = 1.5

and

k_1 = 100

.

Subtracting the two equations eliminates

k_1

, yielding

300 k_2 = 450 \implies k_2 = 1.5

. Substituting

k_2 = 1.5

back into

k_1 + 100 k_2 = 250

gives

k_1 = 100

A point $P(x, y)$ moves in a Cartesian plane such that the sum of the squares of its distances from two fixed points $A(0, 0)$ and $B(8, 0)$ is equal to $82$ , defining a locus $L_1$ . A second locus $L_2$ is the set of all points equidistant from the parallel lines $y = -1$ and $y = 7$ . Given that $L_1$ and $L_2$ intersect at two distinct points $M$ and $N$ , what is the length of the line segment $MN$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 8

Cevap

The length of the line segment

MN

is 8 units.

The locus

L_1

simplifies to the circle

(x - 4)^2 + y^2 = 25

with center

(4,0)

and radius

5

. The locus

L_2

is the horizontal line

y = 3

. Substituting

y = 3

into the circle equation yields

(x - 4)^2 = 16

, giving intersection points at

(0,3)

and

(8,3)

. The distance between these points is

8

units.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Formulate the algebraic expression for locus

L_1

The distance squared

PA^2 = x^2 + y^2

and

PB^2 = (x - 8)^2 + y^2

. Setting

PA^2 + PB^2 = 82

gives

x^2 + y^2 + (x - 8)^2 + y^2 = 82

.

By the distance formula, the sum of squared distances from

P(x, y)

to

A(0,0)

and

B(8,0)

equals 82.

2

Simplify and complete the square for locus

L_1

Expanding yields

2x^2 - 16x + 64 + 2y^2 = 82 \implies 2x^2 - 16x + 2y^2 = 18 \implies x^2 - 8x + y^2 = 9

. Completing the square gives

(x - 4)^2 + y^2 = 25

.

This shows

L_1

is a circle with center

(4, 0)

and radius

R = 5

.

3

Find the equation for locus

L_2

The locus of points equidistant from two parallel lines

y = -1

and

y = 7

is the line

y = \frac{-1 + 7}{2} = 3

.

The locus equidistant from two parallel lines is a parallel line running midway between them.

4

Find the intersection points

M

and

N

Substitute

y = 3

into

(x - 4)^2 + y^2 = 25

:

(x - 4)^2 + 3^2 = 25 \implies (x - 4)^2 = 16 \implies x - 4 = \pm 4

, so

x = 8

or

x = 0

. Thus,

M = (0, 3)

and

N = (8, 3)

.

Solving the circle and line equations simultaneously gives the

x

-coordinates of the intersection points.

5

Compute the distance between

M

and

N

Since both points share the ordinate

y = 3

, distance

MN = 8 - 0 = 8

.

The length of a horizontal segment is the difference between its endpoints'

x

-coordinates.

A point $P(x, y)$ moves such that it is equidistant from two parallel lines $3x - 4y + 11 = 0$ and $3x - 4y - 1 = 0$ , defining locus $L_1$ . A second locus $L_2$ consists of all points that are at a constant distance of $5$ units from the fixed point $(1, 7)$ . Calculate the distance between the two points of intersection of locus $L_1$ and locus $L_2$ .

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 6

Cevap

The distance between the two points of intersection of locus L1 and locus L2 is 6 units.

Locus L1 is the line midway between the two given parallel lines, having the equation 3x - 4y + 5 = 0. Locus L2 is a circle centered at (1, 7) with radius 5. The perpendicular distance from the center (1, 7) to line L1 is 4 units. Applying Pythagoras' theorem to the right triangle formed by the radius, perpendicular distance, and half-chord gives a half-chord length of sqrt(5^2 - 4^2) = 3. Therefore, the distance between the two intersection points (the full chord length) is 2 * 3 = 6 units.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Determine the equation of locus L1

3x - 4y + 5 = 0

The locus of points equidistant from two parallel lines ax + by + c1 = 0 and ax + by + c2 = 0 is a line parallel to both and midway between them, given by ax + by + (c1 + c2)/2 = 0.

2

Identify the geometric representation of locus L2

A circle centered at (1, 7) with radius r = 5

The locus of points at a constant distance r from a fixed point (x0, y0) is a circle.

3

Calculate the perpendicular distance d from the circle's center (1, 7) to line L1

d = 4 units

Using the perpendicular distance formula d = |ax0 + by0 + c| / sqrt(a^2 + b^2), we get d = |3(1) - 4(7) + 5| / sqrt(3^2 + (-4)^2) = |-20| / 5 = 4.

4

Compute the total distance between the two intersection points

6 units

The line intersects the circle along a chord. Using Pythagoras' theorem, half the chord length is sqrt(r^2 - d^2) = sqrt(5^2 - 4^2) = 3. Multiplying by 2 gives the full distance of 6 units.
