Drawing the triangle, you have the angle of 60° the adjacent 30 and opposite x
We are looking for x so we use the function that has these three values that's tan
Tan 60= opposite/adjacent
Tan 60= x/30
X= tan 60 x 30
That's 51.96m

Factorize completely the expression abx\(^2\) + 6y – 3ax – 2byx. | Mathematics Past Questions

Collect terms that look closest to each other
(abx²-2byx)(6y-3ax)
What's common?
bx(ax-2y)-3(-2y-ax)
Note: always make sure the terms in both brackets are same to know if you're getting it
Collect the ones outside the brackets
(ax-2y)(bx-3)

Express the product of 0.0014 and 0.011 in standard form. | Mathematics Past Questions

Turn them to standard form first
14×10^-⁴ and 11×10^-³
Multiply 14 by 11 that's 154
Multiply the standard forms too
So, 10^-⁴ × 10^-³=10^-³-⁴= 10^-7
The answer is 154×10^-7 then turn it to the form of the options that's 1.54×10^-5

X sold an article to Y at a profit of 20%. Y then sold it to Z at a loss of 20% … | Mathematics Past Questions

Let's say the original price is 100₦
X sold it at a profit of 20% to y
20/100×100 that's 20₦ +100. =₦ 120
Y bought at 120...then y sold at a loss of 20%
So
20/100×120 is 24
120-24=96₦
Y sold it at 96 naira to z
So
96:100 24:25
