Study Notes

  • The document is a mathematics review for DOST x NCR in 2023.
  • The review covers Algebra, Geometry, Probability, Statistics, and Trigonometry.

Algebra: Question 1

  • Albie can finish a 500-word essay in 4 hours
  • When Franz helps, the essay is completed in 1.5 hours
  • To determine how long Franz needs to finish the essay alone, 1/4 + 1/x = 1/3/2
  • Franz needs 2.4 hours to finish a 500-word essay

Algebra: Laws of Exponent

  • Multiplication of Powers with Common Bases: (x⁵)(x³) = x^(5+3) = x⁸ and (2³)(2²) = 2^(3+2) = 2⁵ = 32.
  • Multiplication of Powers with Different Bases but Same Exponents: (x³)(y³) = (xy)³ and (3³)(2³) = (3x2)³ = 6³ = 216.
  • Division of Powers with Common Bases: (x³)/(x²) = x^(3-2) = x
  • (4⁵)/(4³) = 4^(5-3) = 4² = 16
  • Power of a Fraction Rule: (x/y)⁴ = x⁴/y⁴ and (⅔)³ = 2³/3³ = 8/27
  • Power of a Power Rule: (x⁵)³ = x^(53) = x¹⁵ and (4²)² = 4^(22) = 4⁴ = 256
  • Zero Exponent: (x)⁰ = 1 and -591⁰ = 1
  • Inverse Rule / Negative Exponent: x⁻² = 1/x² and 2⁻⁴/3⁻³ = 3³/2⁴ = 27/32
  • Fractional Exponent: x^(1/2) = √x and 54^(1/3) = ³√54 = ³√(27*2) = 3∛2

Algebra: Question 2

  • Simplify the expression (a³b⁵/ab²c)⁻² to c²/a⁴b⁶

Algebra: Question 3

  • Simplify ³√(2) * ³√(16) * ³√(54)/√216 which equals 1

Algebra: Question 4

  • Simplify 3^(2log₃a + 4log₃b - log₃c) which equals a²b⁴/c

Algebra: Question 5

  • Solve the product of polynomials (x + 1)(x - 1)(x⁴ + x² + 1) which equals x⁶ - 1

Algebra: Question 6

  • The sequence -1, 4, -9, 16, -25 continues with 36.

Geometry: Question 7

  • Given the ratio between segments ST and PT is 4/3, the ratio between RT and QT is 4/3 because the triangles formed are similar.

Geometry: Question 8

  • AAA does not belong to the the Triangle Congruence Theorems

Geometry: Question 9

  • A real-valued function contains set of values which are all real

Probability: Question 10

  • The probability of getting an even and an odd number after rolling two dice is 1/2
  • In a die, there are three even and three odd number outcomes.
  • The probability of having odd and even respectively after rolling two dice is 1/4.
  • The probability of having even and odd respectively after rolling is 1/4.
  • Hence, the probability of getting an even and an odd number after rolling two dice is 1/2.

Probability: Question 11

  • There are 56 ways to select from 4 shirts, 2 pants, and 7 hats wearing one of each.
  • Multiply the number of choices: 4 * 2 * 7 = 56.

Probability: Question 12

  • With no digits repeating, there are 40 possible three-digit even numbers using the digits 1, 3, 5, 6, 8, and 9.
  • Only two digits (6 and 8) can be in the one's place
  • Taking away one digit for the tenth place, 5 digits remain for the hundreds and ten place
  • 542 = 40.

Probability: Question 13

  • With no 3 points lying along the same line, 21 unique lines can be drawn connecting pairs of 7 points in a plane
  • This implies that the number of unique lines that can be drawn are ₂C₇ = n!/r!(n-r)!
  • = 7!/(7-2)! 2! = 7!/5! 2! = 7 * 6/2 = 21

Statistics: Question 14

  • Given the data set 24, 13, 26, 24, 25, 27, 11, 24, 25, 18:
  • The mean is 21.7.
  • The median is 24.
  • The mode is 24.
  • “Mean" is the average of a given data set.
  • “Median" is the middle value of a given data set.
  • “Mode" is the data value which occurs the most.

Statistics: Question 15

  • Option a has a correct interpretation between the scatter plots and data

Trigonometry: Question 16

  • Of the following, 13, 83, 84 is NOT a Pythagorean triple
  • a is a known triple
  • b and c, can be further simplified into 5,12,13 and 7,24,25, which are also known triples.

Trigonometry: Question 17

  • A right triangle shows cot θ=a/b

Trigonometry: Question 18

  • cos(2θ) = cos² θ + sin² θ is false because Note that because cos² θ + sin² θ = 1

Trigonometry: Question 19

  • In two triangles it can be mirrored with respect to side a and form an equilateral triangle with side length c, hence c=2b. therefore d=e

Trigonometry: Question 20

  • Using the law of sines which describes the correct length of a indicates a = b sin A/ sin b
  • Law of sines states sin A/a = sin B/b = sin C/c
