Problem Solving

Question 23.
The total surface area of a cube is 4,704 square inches. What is the length of each side? (Chapter 1)

From the given question
Total surface area = 4,704 in².
We know that
The total surface area of a cube is 6a²
Where a = side of the cube
6a² = 4704
a² = 4704/6
a² = 784
a = √784
a = 28 in

Question 24.
The volume of a spherical balloon is 12.348π cubic feet. (Chapter 1)
a) Find its radius. Round to the nearest tenth.
Given that the volume of a spherical balloon is 12.348π cubic feet.
We know that
The volume of the spherical balloon is 4/3 × πr³
4/3 × πr³ = 12.348π cubic feet.
r³ = 12.348π/4/3× π
r³ = 12.348/ 1.33
r³ = 9.261
r = 2.1
2.1 rounded to the nearest tenth is 2.1

b) Air is pumped into the balloon, so that its radius doubles every 10 seconds. Using 3.14 as an approximation for n, find its surface area after 30 seconds. Round to the nearest tenth.
Let r be the radius of the balloon
The radius of the balloon doubles for every 10 seconds.
For 10 seconds radius = r²
For 20 seconds radius = r³
For 30 seconds radius = r⁴
Therefore r⁴ = 30
r = ± 2.340
2.340 rounded to the nearest tenth is 2.3

Question 25.
An oxygen atom has a total of 8 protons. If the mass of one proton is 1.67 • 10-24 gram, find the total mass of the protons in the oxygen atom. Write your answer in scientific notation. Round the coefficient to 3 significant digits. (Chapters 1, 2)
Given that the oxygen atom has a total of 8 protons
Mass of one proton = 1.67 • 10-24
Mass of 8 protons = 8
Total mass of a protons = 8 × 1.67 • 10-24
= 13.36• 10-24
13.36• 10-24 Round the coefficient to 3 significant digits is 13.4

Question 26.
The table lists the energy in Calories contained in 100 grams of fruits. (Chapter 2)

a) Calculate the total energy of the three fruits. Write your answer in scientific notation.
Given that the energy in calories contained in 100 grams of apples = 4.9 • 10⁴
The energy in calories contained in 100 grams of oranges = 6.2 • 10⁴
The energy in calories contained in 100 grams of pear = 3.5 • 10⁴
Total energy in all the three fruits = 4.9 • 10⁴ + 6.2 • 10⁴ + 3.5 • 10⁴
= 4.9 + 6.2 + 3.5 • 10⁴
= 14.6 • 10⁴

b) Find the difference in energy contained between 100 grams of apple and 100 grams of pear.
Given that the energy in calories contained in 100 grams of apples = 4.9 • 10⁴
The energy in calories contained in 100 grams of pear = 3.5 • 10⁴
Difference = 4.9 • 10⁴ – 3.5 • 10⁴
= 1.4 • 10⁴
The difference in the energy contained between 100 grams of apple and 100 grams of pear is 1.4 • 10⁴

c) How many times more energy does 100 grams .of orange have compared to 100 grams of apple? Round to the nearest tenth.
Given that the energy in calories contained in 100 grams of oranges = 6.2 • 10⁴
The energy in calories contained in 100 grams of apples = 4.9 • 10⁴
6.2 • 10⁴ – 4.9 • 10⁴
6.2 – 4.9 • 10⁴
1.3 • 10⁴
The energy in calories contained in 100 grams of oranges is 1.3 • 10⁴ times more than the 100 grams of apple

Question 27.
Jim deposits $2,000 in a bank, which gives 6% interest, compounded yearly. Use the formula A = P (1 + r )n to find the amount of money in his account after 15 years. A represents the final amount of investment, P is the original principal, r is the interest rate, and n is the number of years it was invested. (Chapter 1) Answer: Given that Jim deposits$2,000 in a bank
It gives 6% interest
Using the formula A = P (1 + r )n
P is the original principal
r is the interest rate
n is the number of years
A = 2000(1+6)¹⁵
A = 2000(7)¹⁵
A = 2000 • 7¹⁵
