2. Sum of the exponents = (3+4)* (10+1)C2 = 385
3. For the given cubic:
Sum of roots = r + s + t = - (-11)/1 = 11
Product of roots = rst = (-1)3 (2/1) = -2
Thus: r2st + rs2t rst2 = rst(r + s + t) = (-2)(11) = -22
4. Let x and y be the numbers
Then: (x + y) (x2 + y2) = 5500 (1)
(x - y) (x2 y2) = 352 (2)
From (2): (x - y)2 (x + y) = 352 (3)
Divide (3) by (2): (x - y)2/(x2 + y2) = 352/5500 = 8/125
(x2 -2xy + y2)/ (x2 + y2) = 8/125
125(x2 -2xy + y2) = 8(x2 + y2)
117x2 250xy + 117y2 = 0
Using MODE 5 3
x = 9y/13 or x = 13y/9
from (1)
(9y/13 + y) ((9y/13)2 + y2) = 5500
Using Shift CALC:
Hence, y = 13 and x =9y/3 = 9
Product = 13*9 = 117
5. Let x = position of the minute hand (in min) after 2PM.
Then: 10 + x/12 = position of the hr hand.
In 10 min, angle between the min hand and the hr hand
= x + 10 (10 + (x + 10)/12 ) = x (x + 10)/12
Angle now = 10 + x/12 x
Thus: 10 + x/12 x = x (x + 10)/12
x = 5.909
hence, time is 2:05.909
6. Let x = number who died per day
216/3 = 72 days (number of days the food will last if there are no deaths)
72 + 9 = 81 days (actual number of days the food lasted)
Amount consumed:
Day 1: 6400*3 = 19200 meal days
Day 2: 3(6400 -x)

Day 81: 3(6400 80x)
Sn = n/2 (a1 + an)
6400*216 = (81/2)(19200 + 3(6400 80x))
x = 17.78 man per day
7. For geometric progression:
(2x + 7)/x = (10x -7)/ (2x + 7)
x=7
a1 = 7
a2 = 2x + 7 = 21
 r = 21/7 =3
Sn = 7(310 - 1)/(3 - 1) = 206668
8. Total distance = 120 + 2/3 (120) +2/3(120) + 2/3(2/3(120)) + 2/3(2/3(120))
= 120 + 2[2/3(120) + 2/3(2/3(120)) + 2/3(2/3(2/3(120)) ]
2/3 (120)
= 120 +2 [ 12/3
]
= 600
9. If 2/3 + (5/9)i is a root, the other root is 2/3 - (5/9)i
x1 + x2 = -b/a = -b/1 (assume a =1)
-b = 2/3 + (5/9)i + 2/3 - (5/9)i = 4/3
b = -4/3
x1 * x2 = c/a = c
c = 2/3 + (5/9)i * 2/3 - (5/9)i = 61/81
the equation is x2 4/3 x + 61/81 = 0
or 81x2 -108x + 61 = 0
hence, c = 61

13. Plane speed = 400 Nm, N 32o W or 400(90o + 32o)

Resultant speed = 400(90o + 32o) + 30(180o) = 416.68125.50o
