10 A particular plastic plate manufactured at a factory sells at $1.50. The cost of production

consists of an initial cost of $3500 and then $0.50 per plate. Let x be the number of plates

produced.

a Let $C be the cost of production of x plates. Write an expression for C in terms of x.

b Let $I be the income from selling x plates. Write an expression for I in terms of x.

c On the one set of axes, sketch the graphs of I against x and C against x.

d How many plates must be sold for the income to equal the cost of production?

e How many plates must be sold for a profit of $2000 to be made?

f Let P = I − C . Sketch the graph of P against x. What does P represent?

11 n is a natural number less than 50 such that n + 25 is a perfect square.

a Show that there exists an integer a such that

n = a(a + 10)

b Any natural number less than 100 can be written in the form 10p + q where p and q are

digits. For this representation of n show that q = p2.

c Give all possible values of n.

12 a i For the equation√

7x − 5 − √2x = √

15 − 7x square both sides to show that this

equation implies

8x − 10 =√

iii The solutions to the equation 1 are x = 1 or x = 2.

Test these solutions for the equation√

7x − 5 −√

2x = √15 − 7x

c Given that the last row of carrots is less than 80 m from the fence, what is the largest

number of rows possible in this vegetable garden?

d A systematic rabbit has its burrow under

the fence as shown in the diagram. It runs

to the first row, takes a carrot and returns

it to its burrow. It then runs to the

second row, collects a carrot and

returns it to its burrow.

It continues in this way until it has

15 carrots. Calculate the shortest distance the rabbit has to run to accomplish this.

18 In a certain country grain production and population statistics are produced.In December 1986 the population of the country was 12.5 million.

In 1986 the grain production was 10 million tonnes.

It was found that since then the population has grown by 5% each year and grain

production has increased by 0.9 million tonnes each year.

Let P1 denote the population in December 1986.

Let p2 denote the population in December 1987.

Pn denotes the population n − 1 years after December 1986.

Let t1 denote the grain production in 1986.

Let t2 denote the grain production in 1987.

tn denotes the grain production in the (n − 1)th year after 1986.
