    7. A photo-frame with a width of


    cm and a height of 2 − 3 '( is
    2 −3 shown alongside. The frame has a
    small strip of wood 1,5cm wide
    running around the entire frame.
    If the inner area of the frame is
    99cm2, determine two possible
    values of and determine which
    cm of the values are appropriate.

    8. A princess from imagination-land wants to win the prince of her dreams and
    asks her fairy godmother to make her 10 times more beautiful than she was
    before. The fairy godmother gives her two potions to drink which contain
    factor . The first potion contains 2 − 1 of the factor and the second potion
    contains 3 + 4 of the factor. The fairy godmother says that the potions have
    a multiplicative effect and that the princess will wake up in the morning 10
    times as beautiful as she was the day before. The princess wants to know
    what the value of factor is. Can you help her?

    9. In a box of mixed chocolate chips (milk chocolate and white chocolate), that
    weighs 500g, there are number of milk chocolate chips, and and the amount
    of white chocolate chips equals 3 times the number of milk chocolate chips
    minus 10. If every chocolate chip weighs 2g, determine the number of milk
    chocolate chips and the number of white chocolate chips.

    10. Mr Ian Venter invents a travel machine that’s strength is measured as a


    parabola given below:
    Determine the formula for determining the
    strength of Mr Ian Venter’s travel machine
    and then determine at what distance the
    strength of the travel machine will be at a
    maximum and what that maximum is.
    Distance = 10m
