WEEK 2

TOPIC: SIMPLE EQUATION AND WORLD PROBLEMS

DEFINITION OF EQUATIONS

Equations are open sentences which have the equal sign. Solving an equation means finding a value of the unknown which makes the equation true. Any letter a, f, c, x etc. can be used as unknown. The set of values which make an equation true is called the truth set.

Example 1

Solve the following simple equations:

1. 3a-8 = 10
2. 10x – 7 = 27
3. 4 + 5y = 19

Solution

1. 3a – 8 = 10

Method 1

3a – 8 + 8 =10 +8

3a = 18

= 6

Method 2

3a – 8 = 10

3a = 10 + 8

3a = 18

a = = 6

Note: If a number is moved from one side to an equation over the equal sign to the other side, the sign of the number changes.

1. 10x – 7 = 27

Method 1

10x – 7 + 7 = 27 + 7

10x = 34

 

x = 3.4

Method 2

10x – 7 = 27

10x = 27+ 7

x = = 3.4

EXAMPLE 2

Solve the following equations:

1. 4(3y-2) = 6
2. 2 (x-8) = 3(x+5)

Solution

1. 4 (3y-2) = 6

Removing the bracket we have

12y-8=6

Solving the equation

12y= 6 +8 =14

y= =

1. 2(x-8) = 3(x+5)

Removing the brackets

2x-16 = 3x+15

Collecting the like terms together and solving

-16-15 = 3x-2x

-31 = x

Or

x = -31

EXAMPLE 3

Solve the following equations

Solution

Multiply both sides by 3

a-2 = 12

a =12+2

a = 14

Multiply both sides by 7

5

35 + 3 = 2x

38 =2x

x =19

Collecting the like terms together

(L.C.M of 3 and x is 3x)

2 = 13x

 

WORD PROBLEM ON SIMPLE EQUATIONS

This is the same as solving simple equations.

EXAMPLE:

1. I think of a number, add 3 to it and then divide the result by 5. If the answer equals the original number, what is the number?
2. The average cost of a number of erasers is 50k. if all the erasers cost N 20, find the total number of erasers.

Solution:

1. Let the number be x.

3 added to the number becomes: x+3

Divide the result by 5:

And since the result equals original number, we have,

Solving, we have,

x +3 = 5x

3 = 5x-x

3 = 4x

= x

1. Let the number of erasers be y

Average cost of erasers = N

Average cost of erasers =

50 =

50y =

50y = 2000

y = 40 erasers

:

Solve the following equations;

WORD PROBLEMS LEADING TO SIMPLE ALGEBRAIC FRACTIONS

When solving word problems, the following points are important:

Solution:

Let the number be

Ojo add 15 to

Ojo divide the result by 3:

The result is

This implies that:

Multiply both sides 3 to clear the fraction

Collecting like terms,

Dividing both side by 5, the result is 3 ie

Therefore, the number is 3

1. I add 60 to a certain number and then divide the result by 12, the quotient is 6. Find the original number.

Solution:

Let the number be

I add 60 to the number i.e

Dividing result by 12 implies

Quotient means answer

Multiply through by 12 to clear the fraction: x12

This implies:

The original number is 12.

1. Juliet is old and her brother is half of her age. The sum of their ages is half of their father’s age who is now 60. How old is Juliet and her brother?

Solution:

Juliet age is

Her brother’s age is half of hers i.e

Their Father’s age is 60 years and half of 60 is 30.

Sum of their ages is half of their father:

Multiply through by 2 to clear the fraction:

This means that: Juliet is 10 years and her brother is 5 years.

Evaluation:

1. Find a number such that when 20 is added to ¼ of it, the result is times the original number.
2. One-fifth of an even number added tone-sixth of the next even number makes a total of 15. Find the two numbers. (Hint: let the numbers be and ).

PLOTTING POINTS ON CARTESIAN PLANE

Graph is a picture of numerical data. A familiar example is the representation of numbers on the number line. The positions of the number on the line are called points.

CARTESIAN PLANE

This is plane surface with axes drawn on it. The Cartesian is derived from a French philosopher and mathematician who work out the possibility of presenting geometry in a numerical form. His full name is Rene Descartes, hence the name Cartesian (+)y-axis

 

Vertical line Point of intersection (origin)

 

(-) (0, 0) (+) x-axis

 

Horizontal line

(-)

We describe a point on a Cartesian plane by two numbers say () called coordinates. is the distance of the point from vertical line called -axis and is the distance of the point from horizontal line called -axis. The figure illustrates more.

The position of each point is given by an ordered pair of number. These are called co-ordinates of the point. The first number is called the – coordinate and second number is called -coordinate. The coordinates are separated by a comma.

WEEK 9

TOPIC: SCALE DRAWING

Content:

• Scale
• Scale drawing
• Reading scale drawing Scale

SCALE

A scale simply means the dimension or proportion of objects in comparison to its original or actual size after the drawing. It is widely use in sciences especially in Geography, Biology, Mathematics, Physics, etc.

The scale of a drawing is determined by comparing the length of the drawing with the actual length of the object.

Scale

A is original

B is drawing

Diameter of A = 25cm Diameter of B = 10cm

Scale = the scale is 2 to 5, i.e 2 : 5 meaning 2cm represents 5cm

EVALUATION:

Use measurement to find the scale of the following shapes/figures:

Original

Drawing

Original

b.

 

Drawing

 

SCALE DRAWING

In scale drawing the materials needed are pencil, ruler and set square. The drawings should be on plane sheets or white papers. The dimensions of the actual object should be written on the drawing and a title has to accompany it. However, a rough sketch must be drawn first.

Example:

A measurement of 8000m is drawn to a scale where 1cm represents 500m. Find its length on the drawing.

Solution:

500m is represented by 1cm.

1m is represented by

8000m is represented by

Length on drawing = 16cm.

READING SCALE DRAWING

Reading scale drawing is common to map reading and interpretation. For instance, scales on maps are often given in the ratio form as 1 : .

A map of scale 1 : 50 000 means 1cm represents 50 000cm.

This means 1cm on map represents 50 000cm on land.

Map scale

Rearranging the above formula we have:

Actual distance = map scale x distance on map

OR Distance on map

 

Example:

Change the scale 1 : 800 000 to the form 1cm represents ….km.

Solution:

1:800 000 means 1cm represents 800 000cm.

But 1km = 100 000cm

1cm represents 800 000 100 000 = 8km

The scale is 1cm represents 8km.

EVALUATION

1. Two cities are 70km apart. The distance between them is 20cm on the map. What is the scale of the map?
2. Rewrite the following scales in the form 1:n
3. 1cm represent 20 000cm
4. 1cm represents 500 000cm
