Basic Concept of Laws of Indices
A number of the form am where a is a real number, a is multiplied by itself m times,
The number a is called the base and the super script m is called the index (plural indices) or exponent.
1. a m x a n = am + n ——————–Multiplication law

Example: p3 x p2 = ( p x p x p) x (p x p) = p 5
Or p3 x p2 = p 3 + 2 = p5

2. am ÷ an = am – n ———————Division law
Example: p6 ÷ p4 = p 6 – 4 = p2

3. (a m )n = amn —————-Power law
Example: (p3)2 = p3 x p3 = p 3 + 3 = p6
Or p3 x 2 = p6

4. am ÷ am = am – m = a0 = 1
am ÷am = am/am = ao = 1
a0 = 1 ………………………Zero Index
Note : Any number raised to power of zero is 1

Example: 3o = 1, co = 1, yo = 1

5. (ab)m = ambm ————-Product power law
e.g. (2xy)2 = 4x2y2

6. a – m = 1/am ————- Negative Index
Example: 2 -1 = ½, and 3 -2 = 1/3 2 = 1/9

7. a1/n = n√a ————– Root power law
Example : 9 ½ = √9 = 3
27 1/3 =3√27 = 3 ie (3)3 = 3

8. a m/n = (a 1/n) m = (n√a)m ———–Fraction Index
or a m/n = (am) 1/n = (n√a)m

Example: 272/3 = 3√27 = 32 = 9.

TOPIC: INDICIAL AND EXPONENTIAL EQUATIONS
CONTENT
• Exponential Equation of Linear Form
• Exponential Equation of Quadratic Form
Exponential Equation of Linear Form
Under exponential equation, if the base numbers of any equation are equal, then the power will be equal & vice versa.

Examples
Solve the following exponential equations
a) (1/2) x = 8 b) (0.25) x+1 = 16 c) 3x = 1/81 d) 10 x = 1/0.001 e) 4/2x = 64 x
Solution
a) (1/2) X = 8 b) (0.25) x+1 = 16
(2 -1) x = 2 3 (25/100) x+1 = 42
2 –x = 2 3 (1/4) x+1 = 42
-x = 3 (4-1) x + 1 = 42
x = – 3 4 – x – 1 = 42
– x – 1 = 2
– x = 2 + 1
– x = 3
X = – 3

c) 3x = 1/81 d) 10 x = 1/0.001
3x = 1/34 10 x = 1000
3x = 3 -4 10 x = 10 3
x = -4 10 x = 10 3
x = 3
e) 4/2x = 64 x
4÷2x = 64 x
22 ÷2x = 64 x
2 2-x = (2 6) x
2 2-x = 2 6x
2- x = 6x
2=6x+x
2 = 7x
Divide both sides by 7
2/7 = 7x/7
x = 2/7

Evaluation
Solve the following exponential equations
a) 2 x = 0.125 b) 25 (5x) = 625 c) 10 x = 1/100000

Exponential Equation of Quadratic Form
Some exponential equation can be reduced to quadratic form as can be seen below.
Example:
Solve the following equations.
a) 22x – 6 (2x) + 8 = 0
b) 52x + 4 x 5 x+1 – 125 = 0
c) 32x – 9 = 0

Solution
a) 22x – 6 (2x) + 8 = 0 When y = 4 then, and When y = 2 then,
(2x)2 – 6 (2x) + 8 = 0 2 x = 4 2 x = 2
Let 2x = y 2 x = 2 2 2 x = 2 1
Then y2 – 6y + 8 = 0 x = 2 x = 1
Then factorize x = 1 and 2
y 2 – 4y – 2y + 8 = 0
y (y – 4) -2 (y -4) = 0
(y -2) (y – 4) = 0
y – 2 = 0 or y – 4 = 0
y = 2 or y= 4
y = 2, 4

b) 52x + 4 x 5x+1 – 125 = 0
(5 x) 2 + 4 x (5 x x 51) – 125 = 0
Let 5 x = p
P 2 + 4 x (p x 5) – 125 = 0
P2 + 4 (5p) – 125 = 0
P2 + 20p – 125 = 0
Then, Factorize p2 + 25p – 5p – 125 = 0
p (p + 25) – 5 (p + 25) = 0
(p – 5) (p + 25) = 0
p – 5 = 0 p + 25 = 0
p = 5 or p = – 25
Since 5x = p, p = 5
5x = 5 1
x = 1
5x = -25

c) 3 2x – 9 = 0
(3 x) 2 – 9 = 0
Let 3x = a
a2 – 9 = 0
a2 = 9
a = ±√9
a = ± 3
a = 3 or – 3
Since 3x = a, when a = 3
3 x = 31
x = 1
Since 3x = a, when a = -3
3 x = – 3

Evaluation:
Solve: (a) 3(22x + 3) – 5(2x+2) – 156 = 0 (b ) 92x+1 = (81 x-2/3x)

• Multiplication and division of numbers less than one using logarithm
• Roots and powers of numbers less than one using logarithm

Logarithm of numbers (Index & Logarithmic Form)
The logarithm to base a of a number P, is the index x to which a must be raised to be equal to P.
Thus if P = ax, then x is the logarithm to the base a of P. We write this as x = log a P. The relationship logaP = x and
ax =P are equivalent to each other.
ax =P is called the index form and logaP = x is called the logarithm form

Conversion from Index to Logarithmic Form
Write each of the following in index form in their logarithmic form
a) 26 = 64 b) 251/2 = 5 c) 44= 1/256
Solution
a) 26 = 64
Log2 64 = 6
b) 251/2 = 5
Log255=1/2
c) 4-4= 1/256
Log41/256 = -4

Conversion from Logarithmic to Index form
a) Log2128 = 7 b) log10 (0.01) = -2 c) Log1.5 2.25 = 2
Solution
a) Log2128 = 7
27 = 128
b) Log10 (0.01) = -2
10-2= 0.01
c) Log1.5 2.25 = 2
1.52 = 2.25

Laws of Logarithm
a) let P = bx, then logbP = x
Q = by, then logbQ = y
PQ = bx X by = bx+y (laws of indices)
Logb PQ = x + y
:. Logb PQ = logbP + LogbQ

b) P÷Q = bx÷by = bx+y
LogbP/Q = x –y
:. LogbP/Q = logbP – logbQ

c) Pn= (bx)n = bxn
Logbpn = nbx
:. LogPn = logbP

d) b = b1
:. Logbb = 1

e) 1 = b0
Logb1 = 0

d) Given that log102 = 0.3010 log103 = 0.4771 and log105 = 0.699 find the log1064 + log1027
Solution
a) Log327 + 2 log39 – log354
= log3 27 + log3 92 –log354
= log3 (27 x 92/54)
= log3 (271 x 81/54) = log3 (81/2)
= log3 34/ log32
= 4log3 3 – log3 2
= 4 x (1) – log3 2 = 4 – log3 2
= 4 – log3 2

b) log3 13.5 – log3 10.5
= log3 (13.5) – Log310.5 = log3 (135/105)
= log3 (27/21) = log3 27 – log3 21
= log3 33 – log3 (3 x 7)
= 3log3 3 – log3 3 -log37
= 2 – Log3 7

c) Log28 + Log33
= log223+ log33
= 3log22 + log33
= 3 +1 = 4

d) log10 64 + log10 27
log10 26 + log1033
6 log10 2 + 3 log10 3
6 (0.3010) + 3(0.4771)

Logarithmic Equation
Solve the following equation:
a) Log10 (x2 – 4x + 7) = 2
b) Log8 (r2 – 8r + 18) = 1/3

Solution
a) Log10 (x2 – 4x + 7) = 2
x2 – 4x + 7 = 102 (index form)
x2 – 4x + 7 = 100
x2 – 4x + 7 – 100 = 0
x2 – 4x – 93 = 0
Using quadratic formula
x = – b ±√b2– 4ac
2a
a = 1, b = – 4, c = – 93
x = – (- 4) ± √(- 4) 2 – 4 x 1 x (- 93)
2 x 1
= + 4 ± √16 + 372

Logarithm of numbers greater than one
Numbers such as 1000 can be converted to its power of ten in the form 10n where n can be term as the number of times the decimal point is shifted to the front of the first significant figure i.e. 10000 = 104
Number Power of 10
100 102
10 101
1 100
0.01 10-3
0.10 10-1
Note: One tenth; one hundredth, etc are expressed as negative powers of 10 because the decimal point is shifted to the right while that of whole numbers are shifted to the left to be after the first significant figure.
A number in the form A x 10n, where A is a number between 1 and 10 i.e. 1 < A < 10 and n is an integer is said to be in standard form e.g. 3.835 x 103 and 8.2 x 10-5 are numbers in standard form.

Examples
Express the following in standard form
1) 7853 2) 382 3) 0.387 4) 0.00104
Solution
1) 7853 = 7.853 x 103
2) 382 = 3.82 x 102
3) 0.387 = 3.87 x 10-1
4) 0.00104 = 1.04 x 10-3

Base ten logarithm of a number is the power to which 10 is raised to give that number e.g.
628000 = 6.28 x105
628000 = 100.7980 x 105
= 100.7980 + 5
= 105.7980
Log 628000 = 5.7980

Integer Fraction (mantissa)
If a number is in its standard form, its power is its integer i.e. the integer of its logarithm e.g. log 7853 has integer 3 because 7853 = 7.853 x 103
Examples: Use tables (log) to find the complete logarithm of the following numbers.
(a) 80030 (b) 8 (c) 135.80
Solution:
(a) 80030 = 4.9033
(b) 8 = 0.9031
(c) 13580 = 2.1329

Multiplication and Division of number greater than one using logarithm
To multiply and divide numbers using logarithms, first express the number as logarithm and then apply the addition and subtraction laws of indices to the logarithms. Add the logarithm when multiplying and subtract when dividing.
Examples: Evaluate using logarithm.

WEEK FOUR
TOPIC: REVIEW OF BASIC CONCEPT OF SET

WEEK FIVE
TOPIC: SETS
– Idea of a set, set notations and applications.
– Disjoint sets , Venn diagram
A. IDEA OF SET, NOTATIONS, APPLICATIONS.
Definitions:
A set can be defined as a group or a collection of well defined objects or numbers e.g collection of books, cooking utensils.
A set is denoted by capital letters such as P, Q, and R e.t.c while small letters are used to denote the elements e.g. a, b, c

Elements of a set: These are the elements or members of a given set. The elements are separated by commas and enclosed by a curly bracket {}
e.g M ={ 1, 3 ,5, 7, 11}, 1 is an element of M.

Example: Write down the elements in each of the following sets.
A = {Odd numbers from 1 to 21}
F = {factors of 30}
M = {Multiples of 4 up to 40}
Solution:
A = { 1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15,17,19,21}
F = {1, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30}
M = {4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40}

Cardinality of a set: This is the number of elements in a set.

Example: Given that µ= {all the days of the week}, B= {all days of the week whose letter begin with s}
1. List all the elements of µ
2. List the members of B
3. What is n (µ) 4. What is n(µ) + n(B)

Solution:
1.µ = {Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday}
2. B = {Sunday, Saturday}
3. n (µ) = 7
4. n (µ) + n(B) = 7 + 2= 9

Set notation: A set can be described algebraically using inequality and other symbols. E.g B = {x: -10≤x ≤ 3, x is an integer}

Example: List the members of the following sets
1. A= {x: 5< x< 8} 2. B= {x: 0≤ x≤ 5}

Solution;
1. A = {6, 7} 2. B = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5}

GENERAL/REVISION EVALUATION: If µ= {all positive integers ≤ 30}, M= {all even number ≤ 20},
N = {all integers: 10≤ x≤ 30}
Find 1. n (µ) 2.n (N) 3. n (N) + n(s) 4. n (M) + n(N)

B. Types of sets:
Finite and Infinite set: Finite set is a set in which all its members can be listed.

Infinite set: An infinite set is a set in which all its members cannot be listed.

Empty (Null) set: A set without any member. It is usually denoted by { } or Ø.

Subset and Supersets: If we have 2 sets A and B such that all the elements in A is contained in B, then A is a subset of B. Subset is denoted by C e.g. A C B. If there is at least one element in set B but not in A, then B is a superset of A.

Disjoint set: Two sets are disjoint when there is no common element between them. i.e no intersection.
A n B = Ø
A B

 

 

Universal set: This is a set that contains all the members under consideration for any given problem. It is denoted by µ or €.

Complementary Set: This is a set that contains the members in the universal set that are not in set A. It is denoted by Ac or A1.
Intersection of sets: This is the set which consists all the common elements in a given two or more sets. It is denoted by n.

Union of sets: This is the set of all members that belong to A or to B or to both A and B. It is denoted by u.

Example: If the universal set µ= {x: 1≤ x ≤ 12} and its subsets D, F and G are given as follows. D = {x: 2<x<8}, F={x: 4≤ x≤ 10}, G={x: 1< x ≤ 4}
Find (a) D U F (b) D n F (c) G1 (d) (D n G)1

Solution:
µ = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}
D = {3, 4, 5, 6, 7}
F = {4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}
G = {2, 3, 4}

(a) D U F ={ 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,8, 9,10}
(b) DnF = {4, 5, 6, 7}
(c) G1 = { 1, 5, 6, 7, 8,9,10,11,12]
(d) (D n G)1
D n G = {3, 4}
(D n G)1 = {1, 2, 5, 6, 7,8, 9,10,11,12}

Relationship between union and intersection of sets
n(A or B) = n( A) + n( B) –n( A and B)\
or n(AUB) = n(A) + n( B) – n(A n B)
Example:
If n(A)=23, n(B)= 12, n( AUB) = 35, find n(AnB) and comment on set A and B.
Solution
n(AUB) = n( A) + n( B) – n(AnB)
35 = 23 + 12 –n(AnB)
n(AnB) = 35- 35
n (AnB) = 0
Set A and B are disjoint.

Evaluation:
1. A and B are two sets. The number of elements in AUB is 49, the number in A is 22 and the number in B is
34.How many elements are in AnB?

2. The universal set µ ={ set of all integers}, p= {x:x≤ 2}, Q= { x: -7≤ x ≤15}R ={x: -2 ≤x ≤ 19}
Find 1. PnQ 2. P n (Q UR1)

Venn diagrams:
The Venn diagram is a geometric representation of sets using diagrams which shows different relationship between two or more sets. In order words, it is the diagrammatical representation of relationships between two or more sets. The operations of intersection, union and complementation of sets can be demonstrated by using Venn diagrams.

Venn diagram representation
E or U

 

The rectangle represents the universal set i.e E or U

A

The oval shape represents the subset A.

 

The shaded portion represents the complement of set P i.e p1 or Pc

 

 

 

The shaded portion shows the elements common to A and B i.e A∩B or A intersection B.

 

The shades portion shows P intersection Q| i.e P∩Q|

 

The shaded portion shows A Ʋ B i.e A union B
U or E

 

 

This shows that P and Q have no common element. i.e P and Q are disjoint sets i.e P∩Q= Ф
Q

P

 

P is a subset of Q i.e P C Q
U

 

 

P| ∩ Q| or (P Ʋ Q)|. This shows elements that are neither in P nor Q but are represented in the universal set

 

 

 

This shows the element common to set P,Q and R i.e the intersection of three sets P,Q and R i.e P∩Q∩R

 

 

 

 

This shows the elements in P only, but not in Q and R i.e P∩Q|∩R|

 

 

 

This shaded region shows the union of the three sets i.e PƲQƲ R

Use of Venn diagrams to solve problems involving two sets
Examples:
1. Out of the 400 final year students in a secondary school, 300 are offering Biology and 190 are offering Chemistry. If only 70 students are offering neither Biology nor Chemistry. How many students are offering (i) both Biology and Chemistry? (ii) At least one of Biology or Chemistry?

Solution
n(E)= 400

 

 

 

Let the number of students who offered both Biology and Chemistry be X i.e (B∩C)= X. from the information given in the question
n(E)= 400
n(B)= 300
n(C)= 190
n(BƲC)|= 70
since the sum of the number of elements in all region is equal to the total number of elements in the universal sets, then:
300 – x + x +190 – x + 70 =400
560 – x= 400
-x= 400 – 560
X= 160
Number of students offer both Biology and Chemistry= 160
(ii)no of students offering at least one of biology and chemistry from the Venn diagram this includes those who offered biology only, chemistry only and those whose offered both i.e
300 – x + 190 – x + x= 490
490 – 160 (from (i) above)= 330

2. In a youth club with 90 members, 60 likes modern music and 50 likes traditional music. The member of them who like both traditional and modern music are three times those who do not like any type of music. How many members like only one type of music

Solution
Let the members who do not like any type of music = X
Then,
n(TnM)= 3X
Also,
n(E)= 94
n(M)=60
n(T)= 50
n(MƲT)|= X
n(E)= 94

aa

 

Since the sum of the number of elements in all region is equal to the total number of elements in the universal set, then
60 – 3X + 3X + 50 – 3X = 94
110 – 2X= 94
16= 2X
Divide both sides by 2
16= 2X
2 2
X= 8
Therefore number of member who likes only one type of music are those who like modern music only + those who like traditional music only
60 -3x + 3X + 50 – 3X= 110
110 – 6 x 8 (from above)
= 110 – 48
= 62
Two Venn diagram;

Where 1 = AnBI , 2 = AnB, 3 = AInB, 4 = ( AUB)I
Therefore, µ = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4
µ = n( AnBI) + n( AnB) + n( AInB) + n( AUB)I

Example 1: In a class of 40 students, every student had to study French or Russian or both subjects. 25 students studied French and 20 studied Russian. Find the number of students who studied both languages.

Solution:
Let µ = {All the students}
F = {French students}, R = {Students studying Russian}
µ = 40, n(F)= 25, n(R) = 20
n( Fn R)= x
n(FnRI) = 25-x
n (Rn FI)= 20- x
µ = 25 –x +x + 20-x
40= 45 –x
x = 45- 40
x=5, n(FnR) = 5 students.

Evaluation

1= AnBnC 5 = AnBInCI
2 = AnBnCI 6 = A1nBnC1
3 = AnBInC 7 = A1nBInC
4 = AInBnC 8 = (AnBnC)1
Example: A school has 37 vacancies for teachers, out of which 22 are for English, 20 for History and 17 for Fine Art. Of these vacancies 11 are for both English and History, 8 for both History and Fine Art and 7 for English and Fine Art. Using a Venn diagram, find the number of teachers who must be able to teach:
(a.) all the three subjects
(b.) Fine Art only
(c.) English and History but not Fine Art.

Solution:
Let µ = {All vacancies for teachers}
E = {English vacancies}
H = {History vacancies}
F = {Fine Art vacancies}
µ = 37, n(E)= 22, n(H)= 20, n(F)= 17, n{EnH}= 11, n(HnF)= 8, n(EnF)= 7
(1) Let n(EnFnH) = y
n (EnHInF)= n(E)- (7-y+y+11-y)
= 22- (18-y) = 4 + y
n(EInHnF) = n(H) – (11-y+y+8-y)
= 20- (19-y) = 1+y
n(EInH1nF)= n(F) – ( 7-y +y+8-y)
= 17 – (15- y) = 2 +y
µ= 4+y+11-y+1+y+y+8-y+7-y+2+y
37= 33 + y
y = 37- 33
y = 4.
n(EnHnF) = 4 teachers

(2.) Fine Art only, n(EInHInF) = 2+ y
= 2+4 = 6 teachers
(3.) English and History but not Fine Art i.e English and History only
n(EnHnFI) = 11-y
= 11- 4 = 7 teachers.

Examples:
1. In a survey of 290 newspaper readers, 181 of them read daily times, 142 read the Guardian, 117 read the Punch and each read at least one of the paper, if 75 read the Daily Times and the Guardian,60 read the Daily Times and Punch and 54 read the Guardian and the punch
a) Draw a venn diagram to illustrate the information
b) How many read:
(i) all the three papers
(ii) exactly two of the papers
(iii) exactly one of the paper

Solution
n (E)= 290

 

 

 

 

 

n(E)= 290
n(D)= 181
n(G)= 142
n(D∩G)= 75
n(D∩P)= 60
n(G∩P)= 54
from the venn diagram, readers who read Daily Times only
=181 – (160 – X + 75 – X +X)
=181 – (135 – X)
= 46 + X
Punch readers only
=117 – (60 – X + 54 – X + X)
117 – (114 – X)
117 – 114 + X
=3 +X
Guardian readers only
=142 – (75 – X + 54 – X + X)
=142 – (129 – X)
=142 – 129 + X
=13 + X
Where:
X is the number of readers who read all the three papers
Since the sum of the number of elements in all regions is equal to the total number of elements in the universal set, then:
46 + X + 75 – X + 13 + X + 60 – X + X + 54 – X + 3 + X = 90
251 + X = 290
X = 290 – 251
X= 39

B(i): number of people who read all the three paper= 39
(ii) from the venn diagram, number of people who read exactly two papers
= 60 – X + 75 – X + 54 – X
=189 – 3X = 189 – 3(39) from the above
=189 – 117 = 72
(iii) also, from the venn diagram, number of people who read exactly only one of the papers
=46 + X + 13 + X + 3 +X
=162 +3X =162 + 3(39)
=162 + 117 = 179
(iv)number of Guardian reader only
=13 + X
=13 + 39 = 52

SS 2 FIRST TERM LESSON NOTE FURTHER MATHEMATICS

 

WEEK SEVEN
TOPIC: BINARY OPERATIONS: BASIC CONCEPT OF BINARY OPEATIONS
CONTENT
• Concept of binary operations,
• Closure property
• Commutative property
• Associative property and
• Distributive property.
Definition:
Binary operation is any rule of combination of any two elements of a given non empty set. The rule of combination of two elements of a set may give rise to another element which may or not belong to the set under consideration.
It is usually denoted by symbols such as, *, Ө e.t.c.

Properties:
A. Closure property: A non- empty set z is closed under a binary operation * if for all a, b € Z.
Example; A binary operation * is defined on the set S= {0, 1, 2, 3, 4} by
X*Y = x + y –xy. Find (a) 2 * 4 (b) 3* 1 (c) 0* 3. Is the set S closed under the operation *?
Solution
(a) 2 * 4, i.e, x= 2,y=4
2+ 4 – (2×4) = 6-8 = -2.
(b) 3* 1 = 3+1-( 3x 1) = 4 – 3= 1
(c) 0*3 = 0 + 3 –( 0 x3) = 3
Since -2€ S, therefore the operation * is not closed in S.

B. Commutative Property: If set S, a non empty set is closed under the binary operation *, for all a,b€ S. Then the operation * is commutative if a*b= b*a
Therefore, a binary operation is commutative if the order of combination does not affect the result.
Example; The operation * on the set R of real numbers is defined by:
p*q= p3 + q3-3pq. Is the operation commutative?

Solution
p*q= p3 + q3 -3pq
Commutative condition p*q= q*p
To obtain q*p, use the same operation q*p, use the same operation p*q but replace p by q and q by p.
Hence, q*p= p3+ q3 -3qp
In conclusion p*q= q*p, the operation is commutative.

C. Associative Property: If a non – empty set S is closed under a binary operation *, that is a*b €S. Then a binary operation is associative if (a*b) * c= a*(b*c)
Such that C also belongs to S.
Example: The operation Ө on the set Z of integers is defined by; a Ө b = 2a +3b -1. Determine whether or not the operation is associative in Z.
Solution
Introduce another element C
Associative condition: (aӨb) Өc = a Ө (b Өc)
(aӨb)Өc = (2a+ 3b- 1) Ө C
= 2(2a +3b -1) + 3c -1
= 4a + 6b- 2+ 3c- 1
= 4a +6b+3c- 3.
Also, the RHS, a Ө (b Ө c) = a Ө (2b+3c- 1)
= 2a+ 3(2b +3c- 1) – 1
= 2a + 6b +9c -3 -1
a Ө (b Ө c) = 2a+ 6b+ 9c -4
Since, (a Ө b) Ө c ≠ a Ө (b Ө c), the operation is not associative in Z.

Evaluation
1. An operation* defined on the set R of real numbers is
x* y = 3x+ 2y- 1, x,y €R. Determine (a) 2*3 (b) -4* 5 (c) 1 * 1
3 2
is the operation closed.

D. Distributive Property: If a set is closed under two or more binary operations
(* Ө) for all a, b and c € S, such that:
a*(bӨ c) = (a*b )Ө( a*c – Left distributive
(BӨc) *a = (b*a) Ө(c*a) – Right distributive over the operation Ө

Example: Given the set R of real numbers under the operations * and Ө defined by:
a*b = a+ b- 3, aӨb= 5ab for all a, b € R. Does * distribute over Ө.
Solution Let a, b,c € R
a* ( bӨc) = (a*b) Ө (a*c)
a* (bӨc) = a* (5ab)
= a+ 5ab -3.

(a*b) Ө (a*c) = (a+ b -3) Ө ( a+ c-3)
= 5(a +b-3)(a +c -3)
From the expansion, it’s obvious that, a* ( bӨc) ≠ (a*b) Ө (a*c) therefore * does not distribute over Ө.

WEEK NINE
TOPIC: SURDS
CONTENT
• Rules of surds
• Basic Form of Surds
• Similar Surds
• Conjugate Surds
• Simplification of Surds
• Additional & Subtraction of Surds
• Multiplication and Division of Surds
• Rationalization of Surds
• Equality of Surds
Rules of Surds
Surds are irrational numbers. They are the root of rational numbers whose value cannot be expressed as exact fractions. Examples of surds are: √2, √7, √12, √18, etc.
1. √(a X b ) = √a X √ b
2. √(a / b ) = √a / √b
3. √(a + b ) ≠ √a + √b
4. √(a – b ) ≠ √a – √b
Basic Forms of Surds
√a is said to be in its basic form if A does not have a factor that is a perfect square. E.g. √6, √5, √3, √2 etc. √18 is not in its basic form because it can be broken into √ (9×2) = 3√2. Hence 3√2 is now in its basic form.

Similar Surds
Surds are similar if their irrational part contains the same numerals e.g.
1. 3√n and 5√n
2. 6√2 and 7√2

Conjugate Surds
Conjugate surds are two surds whose product result is a rational number.
(i)The conjugate of √3 – √5 is √3 + √5
The conjugate of -2√7 + √3 is 2√7 – √3
In general, the conjugate of √x + √y is √x – √y
The conjugate of √x – √y = √x + √y

Simplification of Surds
Surds can be simplified either in the basic form or as a single surd.

Examples
Simplify the following in its basic form (a) √45 (b) √98

Solution
(a) √45 = √ (9 x 5) = √9 x √5 = 3√5
(b) √98 = √ (49 x 2) = √49 x √2 = 7√2

Examples
Simplify the following as a single surd (a) 2√5 (b) 17√2

Solution
(a) 2√5 = √4 x √5 = √ (4 x 5) = √20
(b) 17√2 = √289 x √2 = √ (289 x 2) = √578
Addition and Subtraction of Surds
Surds in their basic forms which are similar can be added or subtracted.

Examples
Evaluate the following
(a)√32 + 3√8 (b) 7√3 – √75 (c) 3√48 – √75 + 2√12
Solution
(a) (√32 + 3√8
= √ (16 x 2) + 3√ (4 x 2)
=4√2 + 6√2
= 10√2

(b) 7√3 – √75
= 7√3 – √ (25 x 3)
=7√3 – 5√3 =2√2
(c) 3√48 – √75 + 2√12
= 3√ (16 x 3) – √ (25 x 3) + 2√ (4 x 3)
= 12√3 – 5√3 + 4√3
= 11√3

Evaluation
1. Simplify the following (a) 5√ 12 – 3√ 18 + 4√72 + 2√75 (b) 3√2 – √32 + √50 + √98
2. Simplify the following as a single surd (i) 8√3 (ii) 13√2

Multiplication and Division of Surds
Example: Evaluate the following (a) √45 x √28 (b) √24 /√50

Solution
(a) √45 x √28
= √ (9 x 5) x √ (4 x 7)
= 3√5 x 2√7
= 3 x 2 x √ (5 x 7)
= 6√35
(b)√24 / √50
= √ (24 / 50)
= √ (12 / 25)
= √12 / √25
= √ (4 x 3) / 5
= 2√3 / 5

Evaluation:
Simplify 1. √6 x (3 – √5) 2. (2√3 – √7)(2√3 + √7)
2. Multiply the following by their conjugate (a) √3 – 2√5 (b) 3√2 + 2√3

Surds Rationalisation
Rationalisation of surds means multiplying the numerator and denominator by the denominator or by the conjugate of the denominator.
(a) Example: Evaluate the following (a) 6/√3 (b) 3
√3 + √2

Solution
(a) 6/√3 (b) 3
= 6 x √3 √3 + √2
√3 x √3 = 3 (√3 – √2)
= 6√3 (√3 + √2) (√3 – √2)
3 = 3√3 – 3√2
= 2√3 (√3)2 – (√2)2
= 3√3 – 3√2
3 – 1
= 3√3 – 3√2
1
= 3(√3 -√2)
Equality of Surds
Given two surds i.e P + √m and q + √n if P +√m = q + √n then
√P – q = √n – m the L.H.S
Of the equation is a rational number while the L.H.S and R.H.S can only be equal if they are both equal to zero (0)
P – q = 0
:. P = q and n – m = 0 i.e.
√n = √m

Examples:
Find the square root of the following?
a) 7 + 2√10 b) 14 – 4√6

Solution
(a) Let the square root of 7 + 2 √10 be √m + √n
(√m + √n)2 = 7 + 2√10
m +√2mn+ n = 7 + 2√10
m + n = 7 (1)
2√mn = 2√10
mn = 10
Squaring both surds we have
mn = 10 _______(ii)
m + n = 7 ______ (i)
m n = 10 _______ (ii)
From equation (1) m = 7 – n
Put m in (ii) we have
(7 – n) n = 10
7n – n2 = 10
In sum; n2 – 7n + 10 = 0
n2 – 2n – 5n + 10 =0
n (n – 2) – 5 (n – 2) = 0
(n -5) (n – 2) = 0
n = 5 or 2
m = 7 – 2, where n = 2
m = 5,
m = 7 – 5 , when n = 5
m = 2
m= 5 or 2
The square root of 7 + √10 are 5 & + 2.

(b) Let the square root of 14 – 4√6 be √P – √Q
The (√P – √Q) 2 =14 – 4√6
P – 2√PQ + Q = 14 – 4 √6
P + Q = 14 …………………… (1)

-2√PQ = – 4√6
-2 – 2
√PQ = 2√6 (squaring both sides)

PQ = (2√6)2
PQ = 4 x 6 ……………………………….. (11)

P + Q = 14 ………………………………… (1)

PQ = 24 ……………………………………… (11)
From equation……………… (1) P = 14 – Q
Sub for p in equation ………………… (11)
(14 – Q) Q = 24
14Q – Q2 = 24
In turn we have:
Q2 – 14Q + 24 = 0
Q2 – 12Q – 2Q + 24 = 0
Q (Q -12) – 2 (Q – 12) = 0
Q = 2 or 12
If P = 14 – Q ,when Q= 12
P = 14 – 12
P = 2
If P = 14 – Q when Q = 2
P = 14 – 2
= 12
(√12 – √2 ) = (2 √ 3 – √2) and
(√2 – √12) = (√2 – 2 √3)

WEEK TEN
TOPIC: STATISTICS: MEASURES OF CENTRAL TENDENCY
MEASUREMENT OF CENTRAL TENDENCY
• Mean, Median and Mode of ungrouped
• Mean, Median and Mode of grouped data
Measures of central tendency: This is a measure of how the data are centrally placed. The three commonest measures of position, depending on the information required are the arithmetic mean, median and the mode.
MEAN: It is most widely used measure and sometimes called the arithmetical averages. The mean of the number x1, x2, x3, x4 …………………xn is given by:
X = ∑x where ∑x is the sum of all items. n = number of items
n
When the data involves frequency; mean = ∑fx/∑f
Examples:
1. Calculate the mean of the numbers 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 29.
Solution:
Mean (x) = 15 + 17 + 19 + 21 + 23 + 25 + 27 + 29 = 176 = 22

EVALUATION
1. Calculate the mean of the numbers 37.5, 25.5, 30.5, 41.5, 52.5, 28.5.
2. Calculate the mean score of the scores represented in the table below.
Scores 10 12 14 16 18
No of Students 5 2 3 4 4

Mode:
The mode of a distribution is the value of the variable which occurs most often in the distribution. It is also possible for a distribution to have more than one mode, if there were more than one item having the highest frequency.
Example:
1. Find the mode of the data 5, 4, 8, 9, 6, 8, 9, 3, 8. The mode is 8 (it appears 3 times more than others)
Median:
This is the middle value of a set of data, when arranged in ascending or descending order.
Example:
Find the median of these numbers: (1). 35, 28, 42, 28, 56, 70, 35 (2) 18, 20, 25, 30, 22, 25, 28, 15
Solution:
1. Re – arranging the numbers: 70, 56, 42, [35] 35, 28, 28. The median is 35
2. 15, 18, 20, [22, 25], 25, 28, 30. Median = 22 + 25 = 47 = 23.5

General Example:
The table below is the distribution of the test scored in a class:
Scores 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Frequency 1 1 5 3 X 0 6 2 3 4
If the mean score of the class is 6, find the (i) value of x (ii) median score (iii) modal score.
Solution:

10 4 40
Total 25 + x 155 + 5x
(i) Mean = ∑fx/∑x
6 = 155 + 5x
25 + x
Cross multiplying: 6(25 + x) = 155 + 5x
150 + 6x = 155 + 5x
6x – 5x = 155 – 150
x = 5.
(ii)Median score: the median score lies between the 15th and 16th scores, hence: median = (5 + 7)/2 = 6.
(iii)Mode: 7

Evaluation:
Calculate the mode and median of the scores below; 2, 2, 1, 1, 0, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 1, 2, 2.

MEAN, MEDIAN AND MODE OF GROUPED DATA
Mean: The arithmetic mean of grouped frequency distribution can be obtained using:
Class Mark Method:
X = where x is the midpoint of the class interval.
Assumed Mean Method: It is also called working mean method. X = A + (∑ fd/∑f)
Where, d = x – A, x = class mark and A = assumed mean.
Example: The numbers of matches in 100 boxes are counted and the results are shown in the table below:
Number of matches 25 – 28 29 – 32 33 – 36 37 – 40
Number of boxes 18 34 37 11
Calculate the mean (i) using class mark (ii) assumed mean method given that the assumed mean is 30.5.

 

 

 

 

Solution:
Class interval F X FX d = x – A Fd
25 – 28 18 26.5 477 – 4 – 72
29 – 32 34 30.5 1037 0 0
33 – 36 37 34.5 1276.5 4 148
37 – 40 11 38.5 423.5 8 88
Total 100 3214 164

(i) Class Mark Method: X = = 3214/100 = 32. 14 = 32 matches per box (nearest whole no)
(ii) Assumed Mean Method: X = A + (∑ fd/∑f)
= 30. 5 + (164/100) =30.5 + 1.64
= 32.14 = 32 matches per box (nearest whole number)
Evaluation:
Calculate the mean shoe sizes of the number of shoes represented in the table below using (i) class mark (ii) assumed mean method given that the assumed mean is 42.
Shoe sizes 30 – 34 35 – 39 40 – 44 45 – 49 50 – 54
No of Men 10 12 8 15 5

Mode
The mode of a grouped frequency distribution can be determined geometrically and by interpolation method.
Mode from Histogram: The highest bar is the modal class and the mode can be determined by drawing a straight line from the right top corner of the bar to the right top corner of the adjacent bar on the left. Draw another line from the left top corner to the bar of the modal class to the left top corner of the adjacent bar on the right.

Example:
The table gives the distribution of ages of students in an institution.
Ages(year) 16 – 18 19 – 21 22 – 24 25 – 27 28 – 30
No of Students 18 30 35 24 13
Draw a histogram and use your histogram to estimate the mode to the nearest whole number.
Solution:
Class Interval (Ages) F Class Boundary
16 – 18 18 15.5 – 18. 5
19 – 21 30 18.5 – 21.5
22 – 24 35 21.5 – 24.5

Modal class = 22 – 24
Mode = 21.5 + 0.9 = 22.4, approximately 22 yrs.

MODE FROM INTERPOLATION: The mode can be obtained using the formula.
Mode = Lm + ∆1 C
∆1 + ∆2
Where Lm = lower class boundary of the modal class.
∆1 = difference between the frequency of the modal class and the class before it.
∆2 = difference between the frequency of the modal class and the class after it.
C = class width of the modal class.
Example: Using the table given in the example above:
Modal class = 22 – 24, ∆1 = 35 – 30 = 5, ∆2 = 35 – 24 = 11, C = 3, Lm = 21.5

Mode = 21.5 + 5 x3
5 + 11
= 21.5 + (15/16) = 21.5 + 0.9375
= 22.44, approximately 22 yrs.
MEDIAN FROM INTERPOLATION FORMULA
Median = L1 + N/2 – cfm C
fm
Where, L1 = lower class boundary of the median class.
Cfm = cumulative frequency of the class before the median class.
Fm = frequency of the median class.
C = class width of the median class and N = Total frequency

The median class: 30 – 34, L1 = 29.5, cfm = 24, fm = 11, C = 5
Median = 29.5 + 25 – 24 x 5
11
= 29.5 + 5 = 30kg
