MATHEMATICS

  1. Solve the simultaneous equations:
    • 2x + 7y = 3
    • 2x – y = 3

Solving these equations, we find:

    • From the second equation: 2x – y = 3, y = 2x – 3.
    • Substitute y in the first equation: 2x + 7(2x – 3) = 3.
    • Simplify: 2x + 14x – 21 = 3.
    • 16x = 24.
    • x = 1.5.
    • y = 2(1.5) – 3 = 0.
    • Solution: x = 1.5, y = 0.
  1. Solve:
    • x + y = 4
    • 2x – y = 5

Solving these equations, we find:

    • Add the equations: x + y + 2x – y = 4 + 5.
    • 3x = 9.
    • x = 3.
    • Substitute x in the first equation: 3 + y = 4.
    • y = 1.
    • Solution: x = 3, y = 1.
  1. Cost equation based on given conditions:
    • For 3 hours: C = a + 3b = 2700.
    • For 5 hours: C = a + 5b = 3100.
    • Subtracting the equations: 2b = 400, b = 200.
    • Substitute b back: a + 600 = 2700, a = 2100.
    • Cost for 1.5 hours: C = 2100 + 1.5(200) = 2400.
    • Solution: The cost is N2400.
  1. Relation between x, y, and z:
    • Given x = 27, y = 9, and x = 2:
    • x = 3y.
    • z = x / y = 3.
    • Relation: x = 3y, z = x / y.
  1. When y = 14 and z = 12:
    • x = y + z = 14 + 12 = 26.

ENGLISH

Composition: “The Rich Also Cry”

The phrase “the rich also cry” encapsulates the idea that wealth and privilege do not exempt individuals from experiencing pain, sorrow, and hardship. It is a misconception that financial stability and opulence shield one from the trials and tribulations of life. On the contrary, the rich, like everyone else, face their own set of challenges that can be equally daunting and emotionally taxing.

Consider the life of a wealthy business tycoon. On the surface, he may appear to have everything—luxurious homes, expensive cars, and a life filled with glamour and comfort. However, behind the opulent façade, there can be immense pressure and stress. The constant need to maintain a successful business, the fear of financial loss, and the burden of ensuring the well-being of thousands of employees can take a significant toll on his mental and physical health. The isolation that often comes with such positions of power can lead to loneliness and depression, proving that money cannot buy genuine companionship or happiness.

Furthermore, the children of affluent families often face their own unique struggles. They may grow up in environments where material wealth is abundant, but emotional support and parental presence are scarce. These children can suffer from a lack of genuine relationships and a feeling of being misunderstood. The expectation to uphold the family’s legacy and achieve high standards can lead to severe anxiety and a lack of personal identity. Despite their privileged upbringing, they might grapple with issues of self-worth and purpose.

In addition, the rich are not immune to personal tragedies such as illness, the loss of loved ones, or relationship breakdowns. The pain of losing a family member or battling a severe illness is universal and does not discriminate based on financial status. These experiences can be profoundly affecting and can strip away the perceived security that wealth provides.

In conclusion, wealth and affluence do not equate to a life free of hardship and sorrow. The rich also face emotional struggles, personal losses, and the same existential crises that affect all humans. Recognizing this universal vulnerability fosters empathy and reminds us that, at our core, we all share the same human experiences. The rich, too, have their share of tears and trials, proving that no amount of money can insulate one from life’s inherent challenges.
