SOLUTIONS AND ANSWERS TO THE LAST QUIZ (MODULE 1 TEST 5)

(1) The decimal part of the logarithm of a number is called MANTISSA.

(2) 3^(x - 3) = 9^2x
This could be rewritten as
3^(x - 3) = (3^2)^2x
3^(x - 3) = 3^4x
Equating equal base gives
x - 3 = 4x
Collecting like terms gives
x - 4x = 3
-3x = 3
x = 3/-3
x = -1

(3) log (2x + 4) - log (3x - 1) = 1
Applying the law of logarithm
log [(2x + 4) / (3x - 1)] = 1
Since the logarithm is in base 10, we shall have
(2x + 4) / (3x - 1) = 10^1
(2x + 4) / (3x - 1) = 10
Cross multiplying gives
2x + 4 = 10.(3x - 1)
2x + 4 = 30x - 10
Collecting like terms gives
2x - 30x = -10 - 4
-28x = -14
x = -14/-28
x = 1/2

(4) The nth term of an Arithmetic Progression (A.P.) is given as
Un = a + (n - 1)d
where
Un is the nth term or the last term of the progression,
a is the first term,
n is the number of terms, and
d is the common difference.
Thus, the third term
U3 = a + (3 - 1)d = a + 2d = 16 --------- (i)
The sixth term,
U6 = a + (6 - 1)d = a + 5d = 34 -------- (ii)
Subtracting equation (i) from equation (ii) gives
3d = 18
d = 18/3
d = 6
Hence, the common difference is 6.

THAT'S JUST IT!!! WISHING YOU THE VERY BEST NEXT TIME.

Thanks for your observation. Initially, I presumed every participant should know that he/she has to show the working steps. Supplying only answers does not prove that a participant solves the problem on his own, though this may not be valid as it sounds.

Anyway, your observation is well recognized and noted.

Kindly send me a mail just as Ayox1 and Kolad did. Their incentive has respectively been sent to them.

Compliments of the season!

ayox1:
MTN. Thank you.

COMMENTS ON THE LAST QUIZ (MODULE 1 TEST 5)

The following participants - PatEinstEin, Olutayojr, Ayox1 and Kolad got 100% respectively in the last quiz while Iyoha got 75%. Thus, award/incentive will be given to PatEinstEin, Olutayojr, Ayox1 and Kolad.

That said, only Kolad showed proper working steps on how he arrived at the answers to the quiz questions. The rest of you did not.

NOTE:
It is very necessary to show the working steps on how you arrive at the answer(s) to each of the quiz questions. though these must be short and concise.

From my own judgement, the Overall Winner Of The Quiz (Module 1 Test 5) is conferred to Kolad. I hope you all know why.

@PatEinstEin, Olutayojr, Ayox1 and Kolad: Kindly send me via e-mail the type of network you use (GLO/MTN/ETISALAT/AIRTEL).

Wishing you all a glorious, prosperous new year in advance.

SOLUTIONS AND ANSWERS TO THE LAST QUIZ (MODULE 1 TEST 3)

(1) A cube has 12 edges and 8 vertices.

(2) The place value of 4 in 258.046 is 4 hundredth.

(3) Using Four-Figure Tables and flipping to Antilogarithm of Numbers.
The number whose logarithm is 1.5682 is found to be 37.

(4) Let the certain number be m.
From the statement, it is mathematically expressed:
45 - 2m = 21
Collect like terms
45 - 21 = 2m
24 = 2m
Divide both sides by 2, we have
m = 12
Hence, 12 is that number.

THAT'S JUST IT!!! WISHING YOU THE VERY BEST NEXT TIME.

MODULE 1 TEST 3

(1) How many edges and vertices has a cube?

(2) What is the place value of 4 in 258.046?

SOLUTIONS AND ANSWERS TO THE LAST QUIZ (MODULE 1 TEST 2)
(1( Given
f(x) = (x - 1) / (x^2 - 2x - 3)
If f(x) = 0, then
0 = (x - 1) / (x^2 - 2x - 3)
Cross multiplying gives
x - 1 = 0
x = 1

(2) A dice has 6 faces with numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.
In a single throw, 2 can be obtained once.
Hence, the probability of getting a 2 is
Pr(2) = 1/6

(3) Set P is an infinite set. [That is, one with endless number of elements]

(4) Let the particular number be y.
Going by the question, we shall mathematically obtain
(y + 9) / 2 = 5y
Multiply both sides by 2, we obtain
y + 9 = 2 x 5y
y + 9 = 10y
Collect like terms
y - 10y = -9
-9y = -9
Divide both sides by -9
y = 1
Hence, the particular number is 1.

THAT'S JUST IT!!! WISHING YOU THE VERY BEST NEXT TIME.

@ALL & SUNDRY:
New week quiz questions (Module 1 Test 2) will be posted soon. Happy Weekend!

SOLUTIONS AND ANSWERS TO THE LAST QUIZ (MODULE 1 TEST 1)

(1) Let the number be x.
If 5 is added to twice the number, the result is 17.
That is,
2x + 5 = 17
Collect like terms
2x = 17 - 5
2x = 12
x = 12/2
x = 6
Hence, the number is 6.

(2) Such a set is called SINGLETON.

(3) The answer is 0.
[No bird would remain on the fence]

(4) If 4 men can dig for 14 days,
7 men will dig for [(4 x 14) / 7] days = 4 x 2 = 8 days
Hence, it will take 8 days for 7 men to complete the same task.
