Sin 48 =x / 250
X =250 sin 48 degrees
X = 250 * 0 . 7431
X =185 . 7775 m
=186 m

Let musa’s age=x.
Manya’s age=y.
x-y=3———(1)
Also x=3+y——(2)
7years ago
Musa’s age=x-7
Manya’s age=y-7
x-7=2(y-7)
x-7=2y-14
x-2y=-14+7
x-2y=-7——-eqn(3)
Put eqn(2) into eqn(3)
3+y-2y=-7
-y=-7-3
-y=-10
(2b)
Let the time be y
( x + y) + (x + 3 + y) = 45
(10 + y) + (10 + 3 +y) = 45
10+10+3+2y = 45
23+2y = 45
2y = 45-23
2y = 22
Y = 22/2
Y = 11years
The sum of their ages will be 45 after 11 years

[Diagram]
Distance covered by an athlete = Perimeter of A + Perimeter of rectangle CDEF + perimeter of B
Perimeter of A = 2πr/2 = π =22/7, r = d/2 = 120/2 = 60m
= 22/7 × 60 = 1320/7 = 188.57m
Perimeter of B = perimeter of A = 188.57m
Perimeter of rectangle CDEF= 2(L + B)
L = 120m; B = 60m
Perimeter = 2(120+60) = 2(180)
=360m
Distance covered by an athlete = 188.57 + 360 + 188.57
=737.14m
If the athlete runs the track two times = 2 × 737.14
= 1474.28m
(3b)
If the athlete spends 200seconds for the race
Speed = distance/time
Distance = 1474.28m
Time = 200second
Distance = 1474.28m = 1.47428km
Time= 200seconds = 3.3333hrs
Speed = 1.47428/3.3333 = 0.44kmhr-1
=======================
(4a)
Rate = 2/100 * N0.02 per month
Rate per annum = 0.02 * 12 = 0.24 per annum
(4b) Draw the Diagram
=>GHc83.3
Hence price before the first sales = GHc83.33
(7b)
Initil price of article = GHc = 180.00
In the first sales, reduction = 40%
i.e 100% – GHc 18.00
40% – GHc x
100x/100 = 40*180/100
.:. x = 4*18 = GHc 72.00
Since reduction in the first sale is GHc 72.00
Then reduction in the second = 30%
100% = GHc 108
30% = y
100y/100 = 30*108/100 = 324/10 = GHc 32.4
(i) Hence reduction in the price due to the two sales = (72+32.4)GHc = GHc 104.4
(ii) % reduction = Reduction/Original price * 100/1
=104.4/180 * 100/1 = 58%
