correct option: d
P = 5x + 3, P = wx + 5
M1 = 5, M2 = w
M1 = M2 (parallel lines)
w = 5
Users' Answers & CommentsM1 = 5, M2 = w
M1 = M2 (parallel lines)
w = 5

The pie chart above shows the distribution of subjects offered by students in SSS III level. If 80 students enrolled in the class. What is the size of the angle of the sector in economics?
A
24o
B
39o
C
32o
D
36o
correct option: c
xo + 36o + 54o + 28o + 90o + 120o = 360o
x + 328o = 360o
x = 360o - 328o
x = 32o
Users' Answers & Commentsx + 328o = 360o
x = 360o - 328o
x = 32o

Calculate the perimeter of a sector of a circle of raduis 12cm and angle 60o.
A
(12 + 4\(\pi\))cm
B
(24 + 4\(\pi\))cm
C
(12 + 6\(\pi\))cm
D
(24 + 6\(\pi\))cm
correct option: b
Perimeter = 2r + \(\frac{0}{360}\) x 2\(\pi\)r
= 2(12) + \(\frac{60}{360}\) x 2 x \(\pi\) x 12
= (24 + 4\(\pi\))cm
Users' Answers & Comments= 2(12) + \(\frac{60}{360}\) x 2 x \(\pi\) x 12
= (24 + 4\(\pi\))cm

correct option: c
(2 x 4) + (3 x 4) + (4 x y) = 48
8 + 12 + 4y = 48
4y = 48 - 20
\(\frac{4y}{4}\) = \(\frac{28}{4}\)
y = 7
Users' Answers & Comments8 + 12 + 4y = 48
4y = 48 - 20
\(\frac{4y}{4}\) = \(\frac{28}{4}\)
y = 7
