Let the universal set be $\mathcal{U} = \{x \in \mathbb{Z}^+ : 1 \le x \le 200\}$ . Subsets $A$ , $B$ , and $C$ of $\mathcal{U}$ are defined as follows:
- $A = \{x \in \mathcal{U} : x \text{ is a multiple of } 5\}$
- $B = \{x \in \mathcal{U} : x \text{ is a multiple of } 7\}$
- $C = \{x \in \mathcal{U} : x \text{ is a multiple of } 10\}$

Find the number of elements in the set $(A \cap B') \setminus C$ .

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 17; seventeen

Cevap

The number of elements in the set

(A \cap B') \setminus C

is 17.

The set

(A \cap B') \setminus C

consists of elements in

A

that are neither in

B

nor in

C

. Taking

A \setminus C

isolates the 20 odd multiples of 5 between 1 and 200. From these 20 numbers, removing those divisible by 7 leaves only the odd multiples of 35 (35, 105, and 175) to be subtracted, giving

20 - 3 = 17

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Simplify the set expression

(A \cap B') \setminus C

.

(A \cap B') \setminus C = (A \setminus C) \setminus B

By set algebra, taking elements in

A

that are not in

B

and then excluding elements in

C

is equivalent to first removing elements of

C

from

A

, and then removing any remaining elements that belong to

B

.

2

Determine the cardinality of

A \setminus C

.

n(A \setminus C) = 20

Set

A

contains all multiples of 5 up to 200, of which there are

\lfloor 200/5 \rfloor = 40

. Set

C

contains all multiples of 10 up to 200, which are the even multiples of 5, amounting to

\lfloor 200/10 \rfloor = 20

. Therefore,

A \setminus C

consists of the odd multiples of 5 up to 200, which gives

40 - 20 = 20

elements.

3

Find which elements of

A \setminus C

are also in set

B

.

The common elements are 35, 105, and 175 (3 elements).

Elements in both

A

and

B

are multiples of

\text{lcm}(5, 7) = 35

. The multiples of 35 up to 200 are 35, 70, 105, 140, and 175. However, 70 and 140 are multiples of 10 (belonging to set

C

) and have already been removed. Thus, only the odd multiples of 35 (35, 105, and 175) remain in

A \setminus C

and also belong to

B

.

4

Subtract these common elements to calculate

n((A \setminus C) \setminus B)

.

20 - 3 = 17

Removing the 3 common elements from the 20 elements of

A \setminus C

leaves 17 elements.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $2x - 5$

Cevap

The derivative of

f(x) = x^2 - 5x

with respect to

x

is

2x - 5

.

Evaluating the difference quotient

\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}

for

f(x) = x^2 - 5x

gives

\frac{x^2+2xh+h^2-5x-5h-(x^2-5x)}{h} = 2x + h - 5

. Taking the limit as

h \to 0

yields

2x - 5

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Write down the definition of the derivative from first principles.

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

This is the standard formula for differentiation from first principles.

2

Substitute

f(x) = x^2 - 5x

and

f(x+h) = (x+h)^2 - 5(x+h)

into the definition.

\frac{f(x+h) - f(x)}{h} = \frac{[(x+h)^2 - 5(x+h)] - (x^2 - 5x)}{h}

This sets up the difference quotient for the given polynomial function.

3

Expand the numerator and combine like terms.

\frac{x^2 + 2xh + h^2 - 5x - 5h - x^2 + 5x}{h} = \frac{2xh + h^2 - 5h}{h} = 2x + h - 5

Expanding allows

x^2

and

-5x

terms to cancel out, leaving terms containing

h

.

4

Evaluate the limit as

h \to 0

.

\lim_{h \to 0} (2x + h - 5) = 2x - 5

As

h

approaches 0, the term

h

vanishes, giving the final derivative.

Each exterior angle of a regular polygon measures $24^\circ$ . How many sides does this polygon have?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 15

Cevap

The polygon has 15 sides.

The sum of all exterior angles of any convex polygon is always

360^\circ

. Because the polygon is regular, all its exterior angles are equal. Dividing

360^\circ

by the measure of one exterior angle (

24^\circ

) yields exactly 15 sides.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the formula relating exterior angle and number of sides

The sum of exterior angles of any convex polygon is

360^\circ

. For a regular polygon with

n

sides, each exterior angle equals

\frac{360^\circ}{n}

.

All exterior angles in a regular polygon are equal.

2

Rearrange the formula to solve for the number of sides

n

n = \frac{360^\circ}{\text{Exterior Angle}} = \frac{360^\circ}{24^\circ} = 15

.

Dividing the total sum of exterior angles by the measure of one exterior angle yields the total number of sides.

102

.

To add numbers given in different bases, convert each term to base 10:

1101_2 = 13_{10}

and

32_4 = 14_{10}

. Summing these decimal values gives

13 + 14 = 27_{10}

. Converting

27_{10}

to base 5 by repeated division by 5 gives remainders 2, 0, 1 (from least significant to most significant digit), resulting in

102_5

. Therefore,

x = 102

.

Cevap: $\frac{21}{4}$

Cevap

The remainder when

P(x)

is divided by

2x - 3

is

\frac{21}{4}

.

Using the Remainder Theorem on the quadratic divisor

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

, we find

P(1) = 5

and

P(-1) = -1

. Substituting these values into

P(x) = 2x^3 + px^2 + qx + 6

produces the simultaneous linear equations

p + q = -3

and

p - q = -5

. Solving gives

p = -4

and

q = 1

, leading to

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

. Dividing by

(2x - 3)

requires evaluating

P\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)

, which equals

\frac{21}{4}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Express the Division Algorithm for quadratic divisor

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

.

P(x) = (x^2 - 1)Q(x) + (3x + 2)

By the Remainder Theorem, evaluating at roots of

x^2 - 1 = 0

(

x = 1

and

x = -1

) yields the values of

P(1)

and

P(-1)

.

2

Calculate

P(1)

and

P(-1)

from the remainder expression.

P(1) = 3(1) + 2 = 5

and

P(-1) = 3(-1) + 2 = -1

The quotient term

(x^2 - 1)Q(x)

vanishes at

x = 1

and

x = -1

.

3

Substitute

x = 1

and

x = -1

into

P(x) = 2x^3 + px^2 + qx + 6

to build a system of linear equations.

P(1) = 2 + p + q + 6 = p + q + 8 = 5 \implies p + q = -3

, and

P(-1) = -2 + p - q + 6 = p - q + 4 = -1 \implies p - q = -5

This sets up two simultaneous linear equations in terms of

p

and

q

.

4

Solve the system of equations for

p

and

q

.

Adding the equations gives

2p = -8 \implies p = -4

, and substituting into

p + q = -3

gives

q = 1

. Thus,

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

.

Determining

p

and

q

gives the explicit formula for the polynomial.

5

Apply the Remainder Theorem to find the remainder when

P(x)

is divided by

2x - 3

.

Set

2x - 3 = 0 \implies x = \frac{3}{2}

. Evaluate

P\left(\frac{3}{2}\right) = 2\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^3 - 4\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^2 + \frac{3}{2} + 6 = 2\left(\frac{27}{8}\right) - 4\left(\frac{9}{4}\right) + \frac{3}{2} + 6 = \frac{27}{4} - 9 + \frac{6}{4} + 6 = \frac{33}{4} - 3 = \frac{21}{4}

What is the simplified form of the surd expression $\frac{4}{\sqrt{5} - 1}$ after rationalizing the denominator?

1 + \sqrt{5}

2

4 + 4\sqrt{5}

\sqrt{5} - 1

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $1 + \sqrt{5}$

Cevap

1 + \sqrt{5}

The expression

1 + \sqrt{5}

is correct because multiplying the numerator and denominator by the conjugate

\sqrt{5} + 1

converts the denominator to

(\sqrt{5})^2 - 1^2 = 4

. Canceling the common factor of

4

in numerator and denominator simplifies the expression completely to

1 + \sqrt{5}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the conjugate of the denominator

The conjugate of

\sqrt{5} - 1

is

\sqrt{5} + 1

.

Multiplying a binomial surd by its conjugate eliminates the radical in the denominator using the difference of two squares identity

(a-b)(a+b) = a^2 - b^2

.

2

Multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the conjugate

\frac{4(\sqrt{5} + 1)}{(\sqrt{5} - 1)(\sqrt{5} + 1)} = \frac{4(\sqrt{5} + 1)}{(\sqrt{5})^2 - (1)^2}

Multiplying both numerator and denominator by the same expression preserves the value of the fraction.

3

Simplify the denominator and evaluate the fraction

\frac{4(\sqrt{5} + 1)}{5 - 1} = \frac{4(\sqrt{5} + 1)}{4} = 1 + \sqrt{5}

Dividing the numerator by

4

cancels out the factor of

4

Cevap: 23

Cevap

The numerical value of

x^2 + y^2

is

23

.

Rationalizing

x

yields

\frac{5 + \sqrt{21}}{2}

and rationalizing

y

yields

\frac{5 - \sqrt{21}}{2}

. The sum

x + y

equals

5

and the product

xy

equals

1

. Substituting these into

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

gives

5^2 - 2(1) = 23

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Rationalize the denominators of

x

and

y

x = \frac{5 + \sqrt{21}}{2}

and

y = \frac{5 - \sqrt{21}}{2}

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

2

Calculate the sum

x + y

and the product

xy

x + y = 5

and

xy = 1

Summing conjugate surd expressions cancels the radical term, and multiplying them applies the difference of two squares.

3

Evaluate

x^2 + y^2

using the identity

(x + y)^2 - 2xy

x^2 + y^2 = 5^2 - 2(1) = 23

Substituting the known sum and product avoids having to square complex surd expressions directly.

The table below shows the frequency distribution of marks obtained by $25$ students in a mathematics quiz:

Score ( $x$ )	1	3	5	7	9	11
Frequency ( $f$ )	2	$p$	6	$q$	3	2

If the mean score of the distribution is $5.48$ , what is the median score?

5

6

7

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 5

Cevap

The median score is 5.

By using the total student count of 25 and the mean formula, we obtain the simultaneous equations

p + q = 12

and

3p + 7q = 56

, which yield

p = 7

and

q = 5

. Computing cumulative frequencies shows that items 1 to 2 have score 1, items 3 to 9 have score 3, and items 10 to 15 have score 5. The 13th item lies in this third group, so the median score is 5.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up an equation for total frequency

2 + p + 6 + q + 3 + 2 = 25 \implies p + q + 13 = 25 \implies p + q = 12

The sum of all frequencies equals the total number of students (

25

).

2

Set up an equation for the mean score

\sum fx = 1(2) + 3(p) + 5(6) + 7(q) + 9(3) + 11(2) = 3p + 7q + 81.
\text{Mean} = \frac{3p + 7q + 81}{25} = 5.48 \implies 3p + 7q + 81 = 137 \implies 3p + 7q = 56.

The mean of an ungrouped frequency distribution is calculated using \bar{x} = \frac{\sum fx}{N}.

3

Solve the system of linear equations for

p

and

q

Substitute

p = 12 - q

into

3p + 7q = 56

:
3(12 - q) + 7q = 56 \implies 36 + 4q = 56 \implies 4q = 20 \implies q = 5.
Then

p = 12 - 5 = 7

.

Finding the missing frequencies is necessary to determine cumulative frequencies.

4

Determine the position and value of the median score

Position of median = \frac{N + 1}{2} = \frac{25 + 1}{2} = 13\text{th position}.
Cumulative frequencies:
- Score 1: 2
- Score 3: 2 + 7 = 9
- Score 5: 9 + 6 = 15
Since the 13th value lies in the cumulative frequency interval up to 15, the median score is 5.

The median of

N=25

items is the score corresponding to the

\frac{N+1}{2}

th item when ordered.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $19\text{ cm}$

Cevap

The mean height of the potted plants is

19\text{ cm}

.

The mean height is calculated by multiplying each class interval's midpoint by its frequency, summing these products (

380

), and dividing by the total number of plants (

20

), giving

19\text{ cm}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the midpoint (

x

) for each class interval.

Class midpoints are

12

,

17

,

22

, and

27

.

The midpoint represents the estimated mean value of data items in a grouped class interval.

2

Multiply each midpoint (

x

) by its corresponding frequency (

f

) to find

f \cdot x

.

4 \times 12 = 48

,

6 \times 17 = 102

,

8 \times 22 = 176

, and

2 \times 27 = 54

.

This determines the total estimated sum of values for each class.

3

Sum all

f \cdot x

values and calculate the total frequency

\sum f

.

\sum fx = 48 + 102 + 176 + 54 = 380

and

\sum f = 4 + 6 + 8 + 2 = 20$.

These totals are required for the grouped mean formula.

4

Compute the mean using the formula

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

.

\bar{x} = \frac{380}{20} = 19\text{ cm}$.

Dividing total sum of values by total frequency yields the mean.

Cevap: 5

Cevap

The value of the base

x

is 5.

Expanding

1.41_x

yields

1 + \frac{4}{x} + \frac{1}{x^2}

. Setting this equal to

\frac{46}{25}

gives

\frac{4x + 1}{x^2} = \frac{21}{25}

. Cross-multiplying results in the quadratic equation

21x^2 - 100x - 25 = 0

, which factors as

(21x + 5)(x - 5) = 0

. Since a number base must be a positive integer greater than 4,

x = 5

is the only valid solution.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Expand

1.41_x

using place value powers of

x

.

1 + \frac{4}{x} + \frac{1}{x^2}

Fractional digits to the right of the radix point represent negative powers of the base (

x^{-1}, x^{-2}, \dots

).

2

Equate the expanded form to

\frac{46}{25}

and simplify.

\frac{4x + 1}{x^2} = \frac{21}{25}

Subtracting 1 from both sides isolates the fractional place values.

3

Cross-multiply and solve the quadratic equation

21x^2 - 100x - 25 = 0

.

(21x + 5)(x - 5) = 0 \implies x = 5

A base must be a positive integer strictly greater than any individual digit in the number (digits present are 1 and 4).
