=(2*3)^n+1*(3*3)^n*(2*2)^2n/(2*3*3)^n*2^n*(2*2*3)^2n

=2^n+1*2^n+1*3^n*3^n*2^2n*2^2n/2^n*3^n*3^n*2^n*2^n*2^n*3^2n

= 2^n*2^1*2^n*2^1*3^n*3^n*2^n*2^n*2^n*2^n/2^n*3^n*3^n*2^n*2^n*2^n*2^n*2^n*3^n*3^n

= 2^6n*3^2n*2*2/2^6n*3^4n

= (2^6n / 2^6n) *(3^2n / 3^4n)*2*2

=2^6n - 6n * 3^2n - 4n * 4

= 2^0 * 3^-2n * 4

= 4*3^-2n

= 4 * 1/3^2n

= 4/3^2n

3t - 2p = 8×2 ...(I)
2t - 3p = 14×2...(II)

6t - 4p = 16 ...(III)
6t - 9p = 42 ...(IV)
  9P - 4P = -42 + 16
  5p = -26
P = -26/5 = -5 1/5

Put p = -26/5 into eqn (I)
3t - 2(-26/5) = 8
3t + 52/5 = 8
3t = 8 - 52/5
3t = 40 - 52/5 = -12/5
Divide both sides by 3
36/3 = -12/5 / 3
t = -12/5 × 1/3
= -12/15 = -4/5

Let the water melon be x
Let the mango be y

12x + 24y = 432 ...(i) × 24
24x + 12y = 360...(ii) × 12

288x + 576y = 10368 ...(iii)
288x + 144y = 4320 ... (iv)
-144y + 576y = -4320+10368
432y = 6048
y = 6018/432 = 14

Put y = 14 into eqn (i)

12x + 24(14) = 432
12x + 336 = 432
12x = 432 - 336
12x = 96
X = 96/12 = 8

(i) Water melon per kg = 8
(ii) Mango per kg = 14
(iii) (3 × 8) + (2 × 14)

X² + 2x - 80 = 0
X² + 10x -8x - 80 = 0
X(x+10) - 8(x+10) = 0
Then either
X - 8 = 0 or X + 10 = 0
X = 8 or X = -10

Time taken to fly from X to y
Speed = Total distance/Total time taken
850 = 2600/t
t = 2600/850 = 3.0588hrs
t = 3hours

Time taken to fly to Y from X
Time = Distance/Speed
= 6700/850 = 7.8824hrs = 8hrs
Total time = 3hrs + 8hrs = 11hrs

DRAW THE TRIANGLE DAIGRAM
|YX| = x + 620
From ∆ YFP
Tan56 = R/620
R = 620 x tan56
= 620 x 1.4826
h = 919.19m
To find x
Tan 20 = h/x
X = h/tan20 = 919.19/0.3639
X = | XF | = 2525.45m
|YX| = |XF| + |FY|
|YX| = 2525.45 + 620
= 3145.5.45m
Hence the value of |YX| correct to the four significant figure is 3145m
|XY| = 3145m

(9b)
DRAW THE DAIGRAM
|YX|² = |OY|² + |OX|² - 2|OY| |OX| cosØ
(6)² = (5)² + (5)² - 2 (5) (5) cosØ
36 = 25 +25 – 50cosØ
36 = 50 – 50cos Ø
50cosØ = 50 – 36
50cos = 14
cosØ = 14/50 = 0.28
Ø = cos-¹ (0.028) = 73.34º
Therefore <XZY = ½ (73.74) (Angle at the center twice the angle at the circumference)
<XZY = ½ (73.74) = 36.87º
<XZY = 37º (nearest degree)

(9bii)
Let |XZ| = |YZ| = y
|XY|² = |YZ|² + |XZ|² - 2 |YZ| |XZ| Cos〆
(6)² = y² + y² - 2y² cos 36.87
36 = 0.4y²
y² = 36/0.4 = 60
y = √60 = 7.75m
hence, |XZ| = 7.8m (1dp)

If passengers paid ₦8,400.00 per trip
Commission on each trip = 5/100 × 8400 = ₦420.00

For 52 trips, his commission would be 52 × ₦420 = ₦21,840.00

His take home for the month = ₦6000.00 + ₦21,840.00 = ₦27,840.00

(12bi)
Gross pay = ₦125018.35 per month.
5% income tax = 5/100 × 125018.35 = 6250.9175

2% Union dues = 2/100 × 125018.35 = 2500.3670

1% housing fund = 1/100 × 125018.35 = 1250.1835

7.5% pension scheme = 7.5/100 × 125018.35 = 9376.3763

2.5% health insurance scheme = 2.5/100 × 125018.35 = 3125.4588

10% cooperative contribution = 10/100 × 125018.35 = 12501.8350

Total deductions = 6250.9175+2500.3670+1250 1835+9376.3763+3125.4588+12501.8350 = 35005.14

First 20weeks, she earns ₦400×20 = ₦8000

The next 20weeks she earns ₦720×20 = ₦14400

Total earns for 40weeks = ₦8000 + ₦14400 = ₦22400

Total earns for the whole
year = ₦52×600 = ₦31200

Amount earns for the remaining 12months = ₦31200 - ₦22400 = ₦8800

Average weekly earns for the last 12 months = 8800/12 = ₦733.33

Rent = 15/100 * ₦365,500 = ₦54,825
Personal allowance = 12/100 ×₦365,500 = ₦43,860
Annual tax free allowance
= ₦54825 + ₦43860 = ₦98685

(15b)
Taxable income = ₦(365500 - 98685) = ₦266,815
Tax calculation
The first ₦65,000 = 0% = ₦0

Next ₦100,000 = 10/100 × 100,000 = ₦10,000

Next 100,000 = 15/100 × 100,000 = ₦15,000

The remaining ₦1815 = 20/100 × 1815 = ₦363

Annual income tax = ₦(0 + 10,000 + 15,000 + 363)
=₦25,363

(15c)
Percentage of his salary paid as tax = 25,363/365,500 × 100 = 6.94%
