7
9
10
11
Correct answer is B
Rearrange;
2, 2, 5, 7, 9, 9, 9, 10, 10, 11, 12, 18
Median = 9
If X = 35 and cos y = 2425, where X and Y are acute, find the value of cos (X + Y).
117125
2425
35
725
Correct answer is C
Cos (x + y)
= cos x cos y - sin x sin y
cos (x + y) = 45×2425−35×725
= 96125−21125=96−21125
= 75125
= 35
Given that P = {x : 1 ≥ x ≥ 6} and Q = {x : 2 < x < 10}. Where x are integers, find n(p ∩ Q)
4
6
8
10
Correct answer is A
P = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
Q = {3, 4 , 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}
P ∩ Q = {3, 4, 5, 6}
n(P ∪ Q) = 4
Determine the coefficient of x3 in the binomial expansion of ( 1 + 12x)
58
56
54
52
Correct answer is C
(1 + 12x)5
1(1)3(12x)0 - 5(1)4(12x)1
+ 10 (10)3(12x)2 + 10(1)2 (12x)3
Coefficient of x3
10(12x)3 = 108x3 =
= 54
