Robert borrows $400 000 to buy a house. The interest rate is 6% p.a. compounding monthly. He agrees to repay the loan in 30 years with equal monthly repayments of $M. Let $An be the amount owing after the nth repayment. (i) If the amount owing after two repayments A2 is $399 201.61, show that his monthly repayment is $M = $2 398.20. (ii) Show that An=$479 640 $79 640 1.005n . (iii) After how many months will the amount owing be less than $150 000?
Solve these simultaneous equations. 4x-y=3 10x+3y=2 A point P(x, y ) , moves so that its distance from the line y =−2 is equal to its distance from the point S (5, 2) . Find the equation of the locus of P. An object moves so that its velocity, v m/s , at any time, t seconds, is given by, v=e-2t (i) Show that the acceleration is always negative. (ii) Find the acceleration after 1 second. (iii) If the object is initially 2 m to the right of the origin, find an expression for the displacement of x in terms of t. (iv) Describe the motion of the particle as time increases. Include a description of displacement, velocity and acceleration. A circular stained glass window of radius 3 m requires metal strips for support along AB, DC and FG, as shown in the diagram.
Copy the diagram and information into your writing booklet. O is the centre of the circle. Let OF=OG=y metres and FB=FA=GC=GD metres. (i) Find an expression for y in terms of x. (ii) The total length of the support strips (ie. AB + DC + FG) is L metres. Show L=4x+29-x2 (iii) The window will have a maximum strength when the length of its supports is a maximum. Show that FB=655 metres, provides maximum strength for this window.
The shaded region lying between the curve y= 4— x2 and the x axis is rotated about the x axis Find the volume of the solid of revolution so formed
The population P of a penguin colony is growing at a ratio that is proportional to the current population. The population at any time t years is given by: P=P°ekt Where P° and k are constants The population at time t= 0 was 2000 and at time t=2 was 6000 i Find the valuc of P° ii Find the value of k in exact form. iii At what time, correçt to 1 decimal place, will the population reach 12000? iv What will the population be after 10 years? v Draw a neat graph to illustrate the population over time.
A car travels at 45 km/h on a circular curve whose radius is 0.5km.
i) Find the distance I km, that the car travel in one minute.
ii) Calculate the size of the angle 9 through which the car turns in one minute. Give your answer to the nearest degree.
Alex walks 8 km on a bearing of 140°T. She then turns and walks on a beating of 060°T for 2 km. i Draw a diagram to illustrate the problem. If Alex wants to return to her starting point, calculate: ii The shortest distance she will need to travel correct to 1 decimal place. iii The new bearing she will need to walk on to got back to her starting point correct to the nearest minute.
i) differentiate logecosx with respect to x ii) Hence or otherwise show ∫0π/4tanxdx=12loge2
A car company offers a loan of $20 000 to purchase a new car for which it charges interest at 1% per month. As a special deal, the company does not charge interest for the first 6 months; however, the monthly repayments start at the end of the first month. Wayne takes out a loan and agrees to repay the loan over 5 years by making 60 equal monthly repayments of $M. Let An be the amount owing at the end of the nth month Find an expression for A4. Show that A8 = (20000 − 6M)(1.01)2 −M(1+1.01). Find an expression for A60. Find the value of M.
The graphs of y=2x and y=6x-x2 Intersect at the origin and the point B. i llustrate with a neat sketch. ii Find the coordinates of B iii Calculate the area between'the two graphs.
A bacteria culture of N bacteria is increasing exponentially so that dNdt =kN where t is time in minutes and k is a constant. The number of bacteria increases from 100 to 400 in 2 minutes. Show that N = Aekt is a solution to the above differential equation, where A is a constant. Find the exact value of the constant k in simplest form. Find the number of bacteria present after 10 minutes. After how many minutes and seconds will there be 1000 bacteria?
