2\(\frac{1}{2}\)
6\(\frac{1}{2}\)
15\(\frac{3}{8}\)
17\(\frac{1}{2}\)
Correct answer is A
\(\frac{40}{100} \times 50\)kg = 20kg
\(\frac{1}{8}\) of 20kg for cake; \(\frac{1}{8}\) x \(\frac{20}{1}\)
= 2\(\frac{1}{2}\)kg
If 30% of y is equal to x, what in terms of x, is 30% of 3y?
\(\frac{x}{9}\)
\(\frac{x}{3}\)
x
3x
Correct answer is D
If 30% of y = x, then 30% of 3y = 3x
A fair coin is tossed three times. Find the probability of getting two heads and one tail.
\(\frac{1}{2}\)
\(\frac{3}{8}\)
\(\frac{1}{4}\)
\(\frac{1}{8}\)
Correct answer is B
Pr(head) = \(\frac{1}{2}\), Pr(tail) = \(\frac{1}{2}\):Pr(2 heads)
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) x \(\frac{1}{2}\) = \(\frac{1}{4}\)
Pr(2 heads and tail) 3 times
= (\(\frac{1}{4}\) x \(\frac{1}{2}\)) x 3
= \(\frac{3}{8}\)
a straight line joining A and P

Given that y = 1 - \(\frac{2x}{4x - 3}\), find the value of x for which y is undefined
3
\(\frac{3}{4}\)
\(\frac{-3}{4}\)
-3
Correct answer is B
for undefined expression, the denomination is zero 4x - 3 = 0
4x = 3; x = \(\frac{3}{4}\)
