1

Given T = { even numbers from 1 to 12 }
N = {common factors of 6, 8 and 12}
Find T ∩ N


Correct Option: D

Solution

T = {evenn numbers from 1 to 12}
N = {common factors of 6,8 and 12}
Find T ∩ N
T = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12}
N = {2}
T ∩ N = {2} i.e value common to T & N


2

What is the next number in the series 2, 1, \(\frac{1}{2}\), \(\frac{1}{4}\)...


Correct Option: D

Solution

2, 1, \(\frac{1}{2}\), \(\frac{1}{4}\).....

There are 4 terms in the series
Therefore the next number will be the 5th term

Tn = ar\(^{n − 1}\) (formular for geometric series)

a = first term = 2

r = common rate = \(\frac{\text{next term}}{\text{previous term}}\) = \(\frac{1}{2}\)

n = number of terms

T5 = 5th term = ?

T5 = ar\(^{5 - 1}\)

= ar\(^4\)

= 2 × (ar\(^{n − 1}\))4

= 2 × \(\frac{1}{16}\)

= \(\frac{1}{8}\)


3

If U = {x : x is an integer and 1 ≤ x ≤ }
E1 = {x: x is a multiple of 3}
E2 = {x: x is a multiple of 4} and an integer is picked at random from U, find the probability that it is not in E2


Correct Option: A

Solution

U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20}

E1 = {3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18}

E2 = {4, 8, 12, 16, 20}

Probability of E2 = \(\frac{5}{20}\) i.e \(\frac{\text{Total number in}E_2}{\text{Entire number in set}}\)

Probability of set E2 = 1 − \(\frac{5}{20}\)

= \(\frac{15}{20}\)

= \(\frac{3}{4}\)


4

The curved surface area of a cylinder 5cm high is 110cm2. Find the radius of its base
π = \(\frac{22}{7}\)


Correct Option: B

Solution

Curved surface area of cylinder = 2πrh

110 = 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × r × 5

r = \(\frac{110 \times 7}{44 \times 5}\)

= 3.5cm


5

If two graphs Y = px2 + q and y = 2x2 − 1 intersect at x =2, find the value of p in terms of q


Correct Option: B

Solution

Y = Px2 + q

Y = 2x2 - 1

Px2 + q = 2x2 - 1

Px2 = 2x2 - 1 - q

p = \(\frac{2x^2 - 1 - q}{x^2}\)

at x = 2

P = \(\frac{2(2)^2 - 1 - q}{2^2}\)

= \(\frac{2(4) - 1 -q}{4}\)

= \(\frac{8 - 1 - q}{4}\)

P = \(\frac{7 - q}{4}\)

JAMB Mathematics question image 911

Evaluate (\(\sin\)45o + \(\sin\)3o ) in surd form


A

\(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2\sqrt{2}}\)

D

1 + \(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\)

Correct Option: D

Solution

hypotenuse
sin = \(\frac{1}{2}\)

\(\sin45 = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\)

= \(\frac{2}{2}\)

∴ (sin45 + sin30)

= \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} + \frac{1}{2}\)

= \(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\) + \(\frac{1}{2}\)

= \(\frac{\sqrt{2} + 1}{2}\)

= \(\frac{1 + \sqrt{2}}{2}\)


7

If y = x Sin x, find \(\frac{dy}{dx}\) when x = \(\frac{\pi}{2}\)


Correct Option: C

Solution

y = xsinx

\(\frac{dy}{dx}\) = \(1 \sin x + x \cos x\)

= \(\sin x + x \cos x\)

At x = \(\frac{\pi}{2}\)

= sin\(\frac{\pi}{r}\) + \(\frac{\pi}{2} \cos {\frac{\pi}{2}}\)

= 1 + \(\frac{\pi}{2}\) × 10

= 1


8

If temperature t is directly proportional to heat h, and when t = 20oC, h = 50 J, find t when h = 60J


Correct Option: A

Solution

t ∝ h, t = 20, h

t = ? h = 60

t = kh where k is constant

20 = 50k

k = \(\frac{20}{50}\)

k = \(\frac{2}{5}\)

when h = 60, t = ?

t = \(\frac{2}{5}\) × 60

t = 24oC


9

Evaluate 1 - (\(\frac{1}{5}\) x \(\frac{2}{3}\)) + ( 5 + \(\frac{2}{3}\))


Correct Option: D

10

Given m = N\(\frac{\sqrt{SL}}{T}\) make T the subject of the formula


A

\(\frac{\text{NSL}}{M}\)

Correct Option: B

Solution

M = \(\frac{\sqrt{SL}}{T}\),

make T subject of formula square both sides

M2 = \(\frac{N^2SL}{T}\)

TM2 = N2SL

T = \(\frac{N^2SL}{M^2}\)
