Question

1.) Using the matrix method, solve the following simultaneous equations

3x + 2y = 10

3x – 2y = 14

 

 

2.) 

Given that f(x) = 3x + 2 g(x) = 4 – x and h(x) = 2x - 7

                                                    2

Find:- i) f(-4) =   ii) g[h(5)] =.   iii) f[g(8)] =

iv) hf(x)       v) g-1(0) =

 

3) . a) Two numbers, when multiplied, equal 54.

If the difference of the two numbers is three and x represents the smaller number

i) Represent the information given in equation form

ii) Express as a quadratic equation

iii) Solve the quadratic equation to find possible values for x

iv) If told that x is a positive number, what are the values of the two original numbers?

 

4)  Find the equation of the line joining the points (4, -3) and (-2, 7).

 

5) Find the equation of the line passing through the point (2,

-7) and perpendicular to the line 3y = 8 – 2x

 

6)  Give Log 2 = 0.301, log 3 = 0.477 and log 5 = 0.699 using the information given find

a) Log 60    b) Log 1.5

 

7.) Given the functions g(x) = 5x - 3 find g-1(x)

x – 3
