Question 22.
Three out of the four coordinates of the vertices of trapezoid ABCD are A (0, 1), B (-4, -4), and C(-1, -4). \(\overline{\mathrm{AD}}\) is parallel to \(\overline{\mathrm{BC}}\). AD is 6 units. The point D lies to the right of point A. Find the coordinates of point D. Then find the area of the trapezoid.
Answer:

Given that the three vertices of trapezoid ABCD are A (0, 1), B (-4, -4), and C(-1, -4). AD is parallel to BC and length of AD is 6 units.
Therefore, the point D will be 6 units away from A which can be pointed at (-6,1)
The two parallel sides DA and BC are measuring 6 units and 3 units respectively. The height is of 5 units length.
Sum of the sides = 6+3 = 9 units
Area of trapezoid = \(\frac{1}{2}\)×h×(b₁ + b₂)

Solve.

Question 23.
Parallelogram PQRT is made up of isosceles triangle PST and trapezoid PQRS. Find the area of parallelogram PQRT.

Answer:
Given that, PST is an isosceles triangle. Therefore the length of PT and TS will be 15cm.
Area of triangle = \(\frac{1}{2}\)×b×h
= \(\frac{1}{2}\)×15×15
= \(\frac{1}{2}\)×225
= 225÷2
= 112.5 sq.cm
Length of TR = Length of RS + Length of ST
Length of TR = 5+15 = 20 cm
Since PQRT is parallelogram, TR will be parallel to PQ. Thus, PQ = 20cm.
Area of trapezoid = \(\frac{1}{2}\)×h×(b₁ + b₂)
Sum of bases = SR + PQ
= 5 +15
= 20 cm
The height is of length 14.5 cm.
Area of trapezoid = \(\frac{1}{2}\)×14.5×20
= \(\frac{1}{2}\)×290
= 290÷2
= 145 sq.cm
Area of parallelogram PQRT = Area of isosceles triangle + Area of trapezoid
= 112.5 + 145
= 257.5 sq.cm

Question 24.
Use multiplication to find three ratios equivalent to 8 : 12.
Answer:
The three equivalent ratios of 8 : 12 are 16 : 24; 24: 36 and 32 : 48.
Explanation:
first we need to write the given ratio as fraction = 8/12
= (8 × 2)/(12 × 2)
= 16/24
= 16 : 24 (one equivalent ratio),
So, 16 : 24 is an equivalent ratio of 8 : 12.
Similarly again, we need to write the given ratio 8 : 12 as fraction to get another equivalent ratio = 8/12
= (8 × 3)/(12 × 3)
= 24/36 is another equivalent ratio.
Similarly again, we need to write the given ratio 8 : 12 as fraction to get another equivalent ratio = 8/12
= (8 × 4)/(12 × 4)
= 32/48 is another equivalent ratio.
Therefore, the three equivalent ratios of 8 : 12 are 16 : 24; 24: 36 and 32 : 48.

= (168 ÷ 2)/(56 ÷ 2)
= 84/28
So, 168 : 56 is an equivalent ratio of 84 : 28.
Similarly again, we need to write the given ratio 168 : 56 as fraction to get another equivalent ratio = 168/56
= (168 ÷ 3)/(56 ÷ 3)
= 56/18
So, 168 : 56 is an equivalent ratio of 56 : 18.
Similarly again, we need to write the given ratio 168 : 56 as fraction to get another equivalent ratio = 168/56
= (168 ÷ 4)/(56 ÷ 4)
= 42/14
So, 168 : 56 is an equivalent ratio of 42 : 14.
Therefore, the two equivalent ratios of 168 : 56 are 84 : 28; 56: 18 and 42 : 14.

Question 28.
At a concert, \(\frac{2}{5}\) of the people were men. There were 3 times as many women as children. If there were 45 more men than children, how many people were there at the concert?
Answer:
180 people
Explanation:
Let people= p
men = \(\frac{2}{5}\)p
Let children = c
women = 3c
men = \(\frac{2}{5}\)p = c+45
people = men + women + children
= \(\frac{2}{5}\)p + 3c + c

= \(\frac{2}{5}\)p + 4c

= \(\frac{3}{5}\)p = 4c
\(\frac{2}{5}\)p = c + 45
Children = 27
people = 180
So, 180 people at the show.
women = 3c = 3 x 27 = 81
men = \(\frac{2}{5}\)p = c+45
= 72

Question 29.
\(\frac{3}{4}\) of the students in a school were girls and the rest were boys. \(\frac{2}{3}\) of the girls and \(\frac{1}{2}\) of the boys attended the school carnival. Find the total number of students in the school if 330 students did not attend the carnival.
Answer:
Total number of students 880
Explanation:
girls = 3boys,
since \(\frac{3}{4}\) = 3 x \(\frac{1}{4}\)

\(\frac{2}{3}\) girls + \(\frac{1}{2}\) boys attended

\(\frac{2}{3}\) x 3boys + \(\frac{1}{2}\) boys

= \(\frac{5}{2}\) boys attended

subtract that from the total (boys + girls) students:
boys + girls – \(\frac{5}{2}\) boys = 330

4b – \(\frac{5}{2}\) boys = 330

\(\frac{3}{2}\) boys = 330
boys = 220
so, girls = 3b
= 220 x 3 = 660
Boys + Girls = (220 + 660) = 880
There are 880 students
660 girls and 220 boys
440 girls and 110 boys attended = 550
the remaining 330 did not attend.

Question 30.
At a baseball game, there were three times as many males as females. \(\frac{5}{6}\) of the males were boys and the rest were men. \(\frac{2}{3}\) of the females were girls and the rest were women. Given that there were 121 more boys than girls, how many adults were there at the baseball game?
Answer:
55 adults
Explanation:
Number of females x
Number of girls = \(\frac{2}{3}\) x – girls

Number of women = \(\frac{1}{3}\) x

Number of males = 3x

Number of boys = \(\frac{5}{6}\) x 3x

= \(\frac{5}{2}\) x – boys

Number of men = \(\frac{1}{6}\) x 3x

= \(\frac{1}{2}\) x – men
So, \(\frac{5}{2}\) – 121 = \(\frac{2}{3}\) x

\(\frac{15}{6}\)x – \(\frac{4}{6}\)x = 121

\(\frac{11}{6}\)x = 121
x = 66
Men = \(\frac{1}{2}\) x 66 = 33

Women = \(\frac{1}{3}\) x 66 = 22
Adults = Men + Women
Adults = 33 + 22 = 55
Question 31.
Mr. Thomas spent $1,600 of his savings on a television set and \(\frac{2}{5}\) of the remainder on a refrigerator. He had \(\frac{1}{3}\) of his original amount of savings left.
a) What was Mr. Thomas’s original savings?
Answer:
$3600
b) What was the cost of the refrigerator?
Answer:
$2400
Explanation:
Let $\mathrm{x\; is\; the\; savings,}$x−(1600+(2x− \(\frac{1600}{5}\)) = x3
Because x is total amount of savings and he spent $1600
So, now he has $2÷5$ of the total amount – $1600
($x÷3$ Because he has $1÷3$ of his original amount of savings)
$x+(-1600-\frac{2x-\; \backslash (\backslash frac\{3200\}\{5\}\backslash )}{})$ = $\frac{x}{3}$3x+3(−1600+−2x+ \(\frac{3200}{5}\))=x
3x+(−4800+−6x+ \(\frac{9600}{5}\))=x
3x+(−4800−1.2x+1920)=x
2x=4800+1.2x−1920.
8x=2880
x=3600
