Series 1 - Form 1 to 4 Answers


SECTION A (60 Marks) - Answers

1.(a) Numbers

Question: Simplify 2^3 × 2^5 ÷ 2^4

Solution:

  1. Use the law of exponents: a^m × a^n = a^(m+n) and a^m ÷ a^n = a^(m-n)
  2. 2^3 × 2^5 ÷ 2^4 = 2^(3+5-4) = 2^4
  3. 2^4 = 16

Answer: 16

2.(a) Exponents and Radicals

Question: Solve √(49) + ³√(27)

Solution:

  1. √(49) = 7
  2. ³√(27) = 3
  3. Add the results: 7 + 3 = 10

Answer: 10

3.(a) Sets

Question: Let A = {1,2,3,4} and B = {3,4,5}. Find A ∪ B and A ∩ B.

Solution:

  1. Union (A ∪ B) = all elements in A or B: {1,2,3,4,5}
  2. Intersection (A ∩ B) = elements in both A and B: {3,4}

Answer: A ∪ B = {1,2,3,4,5}, A ∩ B = {3,4}

4.(a) Vectors

Question: Draw the vector A = 3i + 4j

Solution: Scale 1 unit = 20px

Vector A is shown in green above

5.(a) Areas and Perimeters

Question: Calculate area of rectangle length 10 cm, width 5 cm

Solution:

  1. Area = length × width
  2. Area = 10 × 5 = 50 cm²

Answer: 50 cm²

6.(a) Units

Question: Convert 5 km into meters

Solution:

  1. 1 km = 1000 m
  2. 5 km = 5 × 1000 = 5000 m

Answer: 5000 meters

7.(a) Ratio, Profit and Loss

Question: Buy at 100 TZS, sell at 120 TZS. Profit %?

Solution:

  1. Profit = Selling price - Cost price = 120 - 100 = 20 TZS
  2. Profit % = (Profit / Cost price) × 100 = (20/100) × 100 = 20%

Answer: 20%

8. Sequence and Series

Question: Sum of first 10 terms of 2,5,8,...

Solution:

  1. Arithmetic series formula: S_n = n/2 [2a + (n-1)d]
  2. a = 2, d = 3, n = 10
  3. S_10 = 10/2 [2×2 + (10-1)×3] = 5 [4 + 27] = 5 × 31 = 155

Answer: 155

9.(a) Trigonometry

Question: Find sin 30°, cos 60°, tan 45°

Solution:

  1. sin 30° = 1/2
  2. cos 60° = 1/2
  3. tan 45° = 1

Answer: sin30°=1/2, cos60°=1/2, tan45°=1

10.(a) Algebra

Question: Solve 2x + 5 = 15

Solution:

  1. 2x = 15 - 5 = 10
  2. x = 10 / 2 = 5

Answer: x = 5

11.(a) Statistics

Question: Find mean of 4,8,6,10,12

Solution:

  1. Mean = (4 + 8 + 6 + 10 + 12) / 5 = 40 / 5 = 8

Answer: 8

Question: Draw a cuboid with length 100px, width 60px, height 40px

Cuboid drawn in red and black above


SECTION B (40 Marks) - Answers

13.(a) Matrices and Transformations

Question: A = [[1,2],[3,4]], B=[[0,1],[1,0]]. Find A + B

Solution:

A + B = [[1+0, 2+1], [3+1, 4+0]] = [[1,3],[4,4]]

Answer: [[1,3],[4,4]]

14.(a) Relations

Question: R = {(1,2),(2,3)} on {1,2,3}. Is R reflexive?

Solution: Reflexive requires (1,1),(2,2),(3,3) ∈ R. They are not.

Answer: No, R is not reflexive

14.(c) Linear Programming

Maximize Z = 3x + 4y subject to x+y ≤ 5, x≥0, y≥0

Solution:

  1. Feasible region: (0,0),(5,0),(0,5),(x+y=5)
  2. Evaluate Z:
    • (0,0): Z=0
    • (5,0): Z=15
    • (0,5): Z=20

Answer: Maximum Z = 20 at (0,5)
