1. ALGEBRA

a. Algebraic Expession:

Example 1

Calculate the value of x in the following equation

5x + 10 = 50

Solution

Given Equation as 5x + 10 = 50

 Isolate the variables and the constants;


 You can keep the variable on the LHS and the constants on the RHS.

5x = 50-10

 Subtract the constants;

5x = 40

Divide both sides by the coefficient of the variable;

x = 40/5 = 8

Therefore, the value of x is 8.

Example 2

Find the value of the y when 5y + 45 = 100

Solution

Isolate the variables from the constants;

3
5y = 100 -45

5y = 55

Divide both sides by the coefficient;

y = 55/5

y= 11

Example 3

Determine the value of variable in the following equation:

2x + 40 = 30

Solution

Separate the variables from the constants;

2x = 30 – 40

2x = -10

Divide both sides by 2;

x = -5

Example 4

Find t when 6t + 5 = 3

Solution

Separate the constants from the variable,

6t = 5 -3

4
6t = -2

Divide both sides by the coefficient,

t = -2/6

Simplify the fraction,

t = -1/3

b. Inequalities and number line

Example 5

Solve 3x − 5 ≤ 3 − x.

Solution

We start by adding both sides of the inequality by 5

3x – 5 + 5 ≤ 3 + 5 − x

3x ≤ 8 – x

Then add both sides by x.

3x + x ≤ 8 – x + x

4x ≤ 8

Finally, divide both sides of the inequality by 4 to get;

x≤2

5
Example 6

Calculate the range of values of y, which satisfies the inequality: y − 4 < 2y + 5.

Solution

Add both sides of the inequality by 4.

y – 4 + 4 < 2y + 5 + 4

y < 2y + 9

Subtract both sides by 2y.

y – 2y < 2y – 2y + 9

Y < 9 Multiply both sides of the inequality by −1 and change the inequality symbol’s
direction. y > − 9

Example 7

Solve x + 8 > 5.

Solution

Isolate the variable x by subtracting 8 from both sides of the inequality.

x + 8 – 8 > 5 – 8 => x > −3

Therefore, x > −3.

6
c. Quadratic equation

Example 8

Solve: 2(x 2 + 1) = 5x

Solution

Expand the equation and move all the terms to the left of the equal sign.

⟹ 2x 2 – 5x + 2 = 0

⟹ 2x 2 – 4x – x + 2 = 0

⟹ 2x (x – 2) – 1(x – 2) = 0

⟹ (x – 2) (2x – 1) = 0

Equate each factor equal to zero and solve

⟹ x – 2 = 0 or 2x – 1 = 0

⟹ x = 2 or x = 1212

Therefore, the solutions are x = 2, 1/2.

Example 9

Solve 3x 2 – 8x – 3 = 0

Solution

3x 2 – 9x + x – 3 = 0

⟹ 3x (x – 3) + 1(x – 3) = 0

⟹ (x – 3) (3x + 1) = 0

7
⟹ x = 3 or x = -13

d. Completing the square

Example 10

Solve the following quadrating equation by completing square method:

x2 + 6x – 2 = 0

Solution

Transform the equation x2 + 6x – 2 = 0 to (x + 3)2 – 11 = 0

Since (x + 3)2 =11

x + 3 = +√11 or x + 3 = -√11

x = -3+√11

OR

x = -3 -√11

But √11 =3.317

Therefore, x = -3 +3.317 or x = -3 -3.317,

x = 0.317 or x = -6.317

Example 11

Solve by completing square x2 + 4x – 5 = 0

8
Solution

The standard form of completing square is;


(x + b/2)2 = -(c – b2/4)

In this case, b = 4, c = -5. Substitute the values;


So, (x + 4/2)2 = -(-5 – 42/4)
(x + 2)2 = 5 + 4
⇒ (x + 2)2 = 9
⇒ (x + 2) = ±√9
⇒ (x + 2) = ± 3
⇒ x + 2 = 3, x + 2 = -3
⇒ x = 1, -5

Example 12

Solve x2 + 10x − 4 = 0

Solution

Rewrite the quadratic equation by isolating c on the right side.

x2 + 10x = 4

Add both sides of the equation by (10/2)2 = 52 = 25.

= x2 + 10x + 25 = 4 + 25

= x2 + 10x + 25 = 29

Write the left side as a square

(x + 5) 2 = 29

x = -5 ±√29

9
x = 0.3852, – 10.3852

f. Quadratic formula:

Example 13

Use the quadratic formula to find the roots of x2-5x+6 = 0.

Solution

Comparing the equation with the general form ax2 + bx + c = 0 gives,

a = 1, b = -5 and c = 6

b2 – 4ac = (-5)2 – 4×1×6 = 1

Substitute the values in the quadratic formula

x1 = (-b + √b2-4ac)/2a

⇒ (5 + 1)/2

=3

x2 = (-b – √b2-4ac)/2a

⇒ (5 – 1)/2

=2

Example 14

Solve the quadratic equation below using quadratic formula:

3x2 + 6x + 2 = 0

10
Solution

Comparing the problem with the general form of quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0
gives,

a = 3, b = 6 and c = 2

x = [- b ± √ (b2– 4ac)]/2a

⇒ [- 6 ± √ (62 – 4* 3* 2)]/2*3

⇒ [- 6 ± √ (36- 24)]/6

⇒ [- 6 ± √ (12)]/6

x1 = (-6 + 2√3)/6

⇒ -(2/3) √3

x2 = (-6– 2√3)/6

⇒ -(4/3) √3

Example 15

Solve 5x2 + 6x + 1 = 0

Solution

Comparing with the quadratic equation, we get,

a = 5, b = 6, c = 1

Now apply the quadratic formula:

x = −b ± √ (b2 − 4ac)2a

11
Substitute the values of a, b and c

⇒ x = −6 ± √ (62 − 4×5×1)2×5

⇒ x = −6 ± √ (36 − 20)10

⇒ x = −6 ± √ (16)10

⇒ x = −6 ± 410

⇒ x = − 0.2, −1

g. Polynomials

Example 26

Add the following polynomials:

5x + 3y, 4x – 4y + z and -3x + 5y + 2z

Solution

The first step is to combine the polynomials by the addition operators.

= (5x + 3y) + (4x – 4y + z) + (-3x + 5y + 2z)

= 5x + 3y + 4x – 4y + z – 3x + 5y + 2z

Now arrange the like terms together and add

= 5x + 4x – 3x + 3y – 4y + 5y + z + 2z

= 6x + 4y + 3z

Example 17

Subtract the following polynomial 2x – 5y + 3z from 5x + 9y – 2z.

12
Solution

Enclose the subtracting polynomial and place a negative sign in front of the
parentheses.

⟹ 5x + 9y – 2z – (2x – 5y + 3z)

Now open the parentheses by manipulating the signs

= 5x + 9y – 2z – 2x + 5y – 3z

= 5x – 2x + 9y + 5y – 2z – 3z

= 3x + 14y – 5z

Example 18

Multiply x2 + 2xy + y2 + 1 by z.

Solution

= z * (x2 + 2xy + y2 + 1)

Multiply each term of the polynomial by the monomial


⟹ (z * x2) + (z * 2xy) + (z * y2) + (z * 1)
= x2z + 2xyz + y2z + z

Example 19

Multiply (a2 − 2a) * (a + 2b − 3c)

Solution

Apply the distributive law of multiplication

⟹ a2 * (a + 2b − 3c) − 2a * (a + 2b − 3c)

13
⟹ (a2 * a) + (a2 * 2b) + (a2 * −3c) − (2a * a) − (2a * 2b) − (2a * −3c)

= a3 + 2a2b − 3a2c − 2a2 − 4ab + 6ac

h. Rational expression

Example 20

Simplify: (x2 + 5x + 4) (x + 5)/(x2 – 1)

Solution

Factoring the numerator and denominator to get;

⟹ (x + 1) (x + 4) (x + 5)/(x + 1) (x – 1)

Now cancel the common terms.

⟹ (x + 4) (x + 5)/(x – 1)

Example 21

Simplify (x2 – 4) / (x2+ 4x + 4)

Solution

Factor both the numerator and denominator to get.

⟹ (x + 2) (x – 2) / (x + 2) (x + 2)

Now cancel out common factors in the numerator and denominator to get.

= (x – 2) / (x + 2

14
i. Logarithm

Example 22

Simplify: (x2 + 5x + 4) (x + 5)/(x2 – 1)

Solution

Factoring the numerator and denominator to get;

⟹ (x + 1) (x + 4) (x + 5)/(x + 1) (x – 1)

Now cancel the common terms.

⟹ (x + 4) (x + 5)/(x – 1)

Example 23

Simplify (x2 – 4) / (x2+ 4x + 4)

Solution

Factor both the numerator and denominator to get.

⟹ (x + 2) (x – 2) / (x + 2) (x + 2)

Now cancel out common factors in the numerator and denominator to get.

= (x – 2) / (x + 2

15
2. Arithmetic

Example 24

Find the missing terms in the following sequence:

8, _, 16, _, 24, 28, 32

Solution

Three consecutive numbers, 24, 28, and 32, are examined to find this sequence
pattern, and the rule obtained. You can notice that the corresponding number is
obtained by adding 4 to the preceding number.

The missing terms are therefore: 8 + 4 = 12 and 16 + 4 = 20

Example 25

Identify prime and composite numbers from the following list.

185, 253, 253, and 263.

Solution

Perform the divisibility test to identify composite and prime numbers.

263 is a prime number. 263 ends in an odd number 3, and therefore, it is not divisible by
2. Since its last digit is not 0 or 5, the number is also not divisible by 5. Lastly, the digital
root of 263 is 2, i.e.

(2 + 6 + 3) = 11 and (1 + 1) = 2, so it is not divisible by 3.

Number 185 has the last digit as 5, so 185 is divisible by 5. In this case, the number is
composite.

16
The number 253 has the last digit as 3, which is an odd number. Similarly, it doesn’t end
in 0 or 5, 253 is not divisible by 5. The digital root of 253 is calculated as (2 + 5 + 3) =
10. (1 + 0) = 1, which isn’t divisible by 3. Therefore, 253 is a composite number.

The number 243 has the last digit as 3, so it is not divisible by 2. The number doesn’t
have 0 or 5 as its last digit, and therefore, is not divisible by 5. Its digital root is obtained
as (2 + 4 + 3) = 9, which is divisible by 3. Therefore, 243 is composite.

Example 26

What are the prime factors of 16?

Solution

The best way to solve this problem is by identifying the smallest prime factor of the
number, which is 2.

Divide number by 16;

16 ÷ 2 = 8

Because 8 is not a prime number, proceed by dividing again by the smallest factor;

8÷2=4

4÷2=2

We have the prime factors of 16 highlighted in yellow, and they include: 2 x 2 x 2 x 2.

which can be written as an exponent:

16 = 2 2

17
Examples 27

Instrument type

A component is composed 30% copper, 60% brass and 10% gold. Use this information
to calculate:

 Ratio of copper to brass

Copper = 30%

Brass = 60%

Copper to brass = 30: 60 which simplifies to 1:2 or 1/2

 Ratio of gold to brass

Gold = 10%

Brass = 60%

Ratio of gold: brass = 10:60, which simplifies 1:6 or 1/6

 Ratio of gold to copper

Gold =10%

Copper = 30%

Ratio of gold: copper =10:30, which simplifies to 1:3 or 1/3

 Ratio of copper: brass: gold = 30: 60:10= 3:6:1(in simplified form)


 Ratio of copper to the total = 30:100 = 3: 10 or 3/10

3. Geometry

Example 28

Given that ∠ a = 45°, find all the other angles in the diagram below.

45° d

b c

e f

g h

Solution

Given ∠ a = 45°

∠ a and ∠ d are supplementary angles (add up to 180°). Therefore ∠ d = 180° – 45°

∠ d = 135°

∠ a and ∠ c are vertical angles, and vertical angles are equal. Therefore ∠ c = 45°.

∠ d = 135° and ∠ b are vertical angles.

∠ b = 135°

∠ a = ∠ e = 45° (corresponding angles)

∠ d and ∠ f = 135° (corresponding angles)

∠ b =∠ g= 135° (corresponding angles.

∠ c = ∠ h = 45° (corresponding angles)

19
Example 29

The two short sides of a right triangle are 5 cm and 12cm. Find the length of the third
side

Solution

Given, a = 5 cm

b = 12 cm

c=?

From the Pythagoras Theorem formula; c2 = a2 + b2, we have;

c2 = a2 + b2

c2 =122 + 52

c2 = 144 + 25

√c2 = √169

c = 13.

Therefore, the third is equal to 13 cm.

Example 30

Find the regular pentagon area if the polygon’s length is 8 m and the radius of the
circumscribed circle is 7 m.
Solution
A = [n/2 × L × √ (R² – L²/4)] square units.

Where, n = 5; L = 8 m and R = 7 m.

20
By substitution,

A = [5/2 × 8 × √ (7² – 8²/4)] m2

= [20√ (49 – 64/4)]

= 20√ (49 – 16)

= 20√33 m2

= 20 * 5.745 m2

= 114.89 m2

Example 31

The radius of each wheel of a motorcycle is 0. 85 m. How far will the motorcycle move if
each wheel takes 1000 revolutions? Assume the motorcycle is moving on a straight line.

Solution

First, find the circumference of the wheel.

Circumference = 2 π R

= 2 * 3.14 * 0.85

= 5.338 m.

To find the distance traveled, multiply the circumference of the wheel by the number of
revolutions taken.

Distance = 5.338 * 1000

= 5338 m

Therefore, the distance traveled is equal to 5.338 kilometers.

21
4. Trigonometry

Example 32:

Two friends, Rakesh and Vishal started climbing a pyramid-shaped hill. Rakesh climbs
315 m and finds that the angle of depression is 72.3 degrees from his starting point. How high is
he from the ground?

Solution: Let m is the height above the ground.

To find: Value of m

To solve m, use the sine ratio.

Sin 72.3° = m/315

0.953 = m/315

m= 315 x 0.953

m=300.195 mtr

The man is 300.195 mtr above the ground.

Example 33: A man is observing a pole of height 55 foot. According to his measurement, pole
cast a 23 feet long shadow. Can you help him to know the angle of elevation of the sun from the
tip of shadow?

Solution:

Let x be the angle of elevation of the sun, then

tan x = 55/23 = 2.391

x = tan-1(2.391)

or x = 67.30 degrees

22
Example 34:

The angle of elevation of a hot air


balloon, climbing vertically, changes from 25
degrees at 10:00 am to 60 degrees at 10:02 am.
The point of observation of the angle of
elevation is situated 300 meters away from the
take off point. What is the upward speed,
assumed constant, of the balloon? Give the
answer in meters per second and round to two
decimal places.

Solution:

Use the tangent to write

tan(25o) = h1 / 300
and
tan(60o) = (h1 + h2) / 300

Solve for h1 and h2

h1 = 300 tan(tan(25o))
and
h1 + h2 = 300 tan(60o)

Use the last two equations to find h2

h2 = 300 [ tan(60o) - tan(25o) ]

If it takes the balloon 2 minutes (10:00 to 10:02) to climb h2, the the upward speed S is given by

S = h2 / 2 minutes

= 300 [ tan(60o) - tan(25o) ] / (2 * 60) = 3.16 m/sec

23
Example 35:

Point P has initially coordinates (x,y). It is then rotated by angle a about the origin to point P'
(the distance r from the origin is conserved). What are the new coordinates (x',y') of point P'

Express x , y , x' and y' using angles b and a + b as follows

x = r cos b
y = r sin b
x' = r cos(a + b)
y' = r sin(a + b)
and

Expand x' and y'.

x' = r cos(a + b)

= r cos a cos b - r sin a sin b

y' = r sin(a + b)

= r sin a cos b + r cos a sin b

24
We now use x = r cos b and y = r sin b in the above expressions to obtain

x' = x cos a - y sin a

y' = x sin a + y cos a

The above relationships between x, y , x' and y' may be written in matrix form as follows

5. Probability and Statistics

Example 36:

The probability of pulling a 3 from a 52-card deck of playing cards.

 There are 4 outcomes favorable to the event since there are four 3’s in the deck.
 There are 52 total cards in the deck.
 Thus, the probability of getting a 3 is:

P(3)=452=113

Example 37:

From a pack of cards, three cards are drawn at random. Find the probability that each
card is from different suit.

Sol: Total number of cases = 52C3


One card each should be selected from a different suit. The three suits can be chosen in 4C3 was
The cards can be selected in a total of (4C3) x (13C1) x (13C1) x (13C1)
Probability = 4C3 x (13C1)3 / 52C3
= 4 x (13)3 / 52C3

25
Example 38 :
When a number xx is added to the data set 4, 8, 20, 25, 32,4, 8, 20, 25, 32, the new mean
is 15 . Find the value of xx .
Including xx , there are 6 numbers in the set. Write an equation for calculating the mean with the
unknown value.

(4 + 8 + 20 + 25 + 32 + x) / 6 = 15

Simplify.

(89 + x) / 6 =15

Multiply both sides by 6.

89+x=90

Subtract 89 from both sides.

x=1

Example 39

In one state, 52% of the voters are Republicans, and 48% are Democrats. In a second
state, 47% of the voters are Republicans, and 53% are Democrats. Suppose a simple random
sample of 100 voters are surveyed from each state.

What is the probability that the survey will show a greater percentage of Republican voters in the
second state than in the first state?

(A) 0.04
(B) 0.05
(C) 0.24
(D) 0.71
(E) 0.76

Solution

The correct answer is C. For this analysis, let P1 = the proportion of Republican voters in the first
state, P2 = the proportion of Republican voters in the second state, p1 = the proportion of

26
Republican voters in the sample from the first state, and p2 = the proportion of Republican voters
in the sample from the second state. The number of voters sampled from the first state (n1) = 100,
and the number of voters sampled from the second state (n2) = 100.

The solution involves four steps.

 Make sure the sample size is big enough to model differences with a normal population.
Because n1P1 = 100 * 0.52 = 52, n1(1 - P1) = 100 * 0.48 = 48, n2P2 = 100 * 0.47 = 47, and
n2(1 - P2) = 100 * 0.53 = 53 are each greater than 10, the sample size is large enough.

 Find the mean of the difference in sample proportions: E(p1 - p2) = P1 - P2 = 0.52 - 0.47 =
0.05.

 Find the standard deviation of the difference.

σd = sqrt{ [ P1(1 - P1) / n1 ] + [ P2(1 - P2) / n2 ] }


σd = sqrt{ [ (0.52)(0.48) / 100 ] + [ (0.47)(0.53) / 100 ] }
σd = sqrt (0.002496 + 0.002491) = sqrt(0.004987) = 0.0706

 Find the probability. This problem requires us to find the probability that p1 is less than
p2. This is equivalent to finding the probability that p1 - p2 is less than zero. To find this
probability, we need to transform the random variable (p1 - p2) into a z-score. That
transformation appears below.

z p1 - p2 = (x - μ p1 - p2 ) / σd = = (0 - 0.05)/0.0706 = -0.7082

Using Stat Trek's Normal Distribution Calculator, we find that the probability of a z-
score being -0.7082 or less is 0.24.

Therefore, the probability that the survey will show a greater percentage of Republican voters in
the second state than in the first state is 0.24.

6. Logic and set theory

Example 40

You are given two sets, defined as follows:

A = {1, 4, 8, 9}

B = {3, 4, 9}

Write down the intersection of the sets.

Solution:

As we know, that intersection of two sets is the set containing the common elements of both the
sets; therefore, our new set is going to be:

{4, 9}

We can observe that 4 and 9 are the only common elements to both A and B. So the set which
contains both these elements will be the intersection of sets.

Example 41

You are given two sets defined as:

A = {2, 6, 7, 9}

B = {2, 4, 6, 10}

Find out the symmetric difference based on the definition provided above.

Solution:

From the definition provided above, we know that symmetric difference is a set containing
elements either in A or B but not in both. We look for elements common in A and B. These
elements are 2 and 6. A new set would contain all the remaining elements, which are:

28
{4, 7, 9, 10}

This set represents the symmetric difference of sets A and B.

Example 42

You are given two sets defined as:

A = {a, b, g, j, k}

B = {h, t, k, g}

Find out elements present in the union of A and B.

Solution:

In the union of two sets, we will include elements present in A, in B, or both. So these elements
are a, b, g, j, k, h, t. You will observe that g and k were present in both sets, but we will only
mention them once as they are common to both A and B.

So the elements present in the union of sets A and B are a, b, g, j, k, h, t.

Example 43

Consider the following group of sets:

A = {1, 2}

B = {2, 3}

C = {5, 3}

Determine which of these sets are disjoint sets.

Solution

To find out the disjoint sets, let’s first consider the intersection of these sets.

29
A∩B∩C=𝛟

Now, let’s apply the intersection operation on each pair of sets.

A ∩ B = {1, 2} ∩ {2, 3}

A ∩ B = {2}

And,

B ∩ C = {2, 3} ∩ {5, 3}

B ∩ C = {3}

And finally the last pair,

A ∩ C = {1, 2} ∩ {5, 3}

A∩C=𝛟

So, in this group of sets, only sets A and C are disjoint sets.

Example 44:
Find the Greatest Common Divisor(G.C.D ) of a number 30 and 52

Solution:
Divisors of 30 are 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30
Divisors of 52 are 1, 2, 4, 13, 26, 52
The common divisors in 30 and 52 is 2
Therefore, the G. C.D of 30 and 52 is 2
gcd(30,52)= 2

Example 45:
Find the common factors of 10 and 16

Solution:
Factors of 10 are:
2 x 5 =10
1 x 10 = 10
Therefore, the factors are 1, 2, 5 and 10
Factors of 16 are
4 x 4 = 16
1 x 16 = 16
2 x 8 = 16
Therefore, the factors of 16 are as follows: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16
Then, the common factors are 1 and 2.

Example 46:
Show that the greatest factor of a number is the number itself.

Solution:

Assume the number 24


The factors of 24 are
1 x 24 =24
12 x 2 = 24
8 x 3 = 24
6 x 4 = 24
The factors of 24 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24
From this, we can say that 24 is the greatest factor of a number 24.
Hence proved
