Problem Solutions

48. Determine the interquartile range for the set {30, 48, 70, 77, 58, 69}.

  1. Arrange the numbers in ascending order: 30, 48, 58, 69, 70, 77.
  2. Find the quartiles:
    • Q1 (lower quartile) is the median of the first half: Q1=48+582=53Q1 = \frac{48 + 58}{2} = 53.
    • Q3 (upper quartile) is the median of the second half: Q3=69+702=69.5Q3 = \frac{69 + 70}{2} = 69.5.
  3. Interquartile Range (IQR) = Q3Q1=69.553=16.5Q3 - Q1 = 69.5 - 53 = 16.5.

Answer: Closest option not given exactly, but expected answer should be near 17.


49. Transformation mapping points (2,2)(2, 2) to (3,3)(3, 3) and (7,4)(7, 4) to (7,6)(7, 6)

  • Observing the points, this transformation is consistent with Translation, where each point is shifted by the same vector.

Answer: B) Translation


50. Graph representing the equation y=2x+1y = -2x + 1

  • The slope is -2, meaning it’s a negative slope (line slopes downward), and the y-intercept is +1+1.
  • The correct graph is C, as it has a negative slope and a y-intercept of +1+1.

Answer: C


51. Which relation does NOT represent a function?

  • A function must have unique x-values for each y-value.
  • Relation C has repeated x-values (4) with different y-values (4 and 5), violating the rule of functions.

Answer: C


52. Given f(x)=2x+5f(x) = 2x + 5 and g(x)=xg(x) = x, find f(g(4))f(g(4)).

  1. First, find g(4)g(4): g(4)=4g(4) = 4.
  2. Now, substitute g(4)g(4) into ff: f(4)=2(4)+5=8+5=13f(4) = 2(4) + 5 = 8 + 5 = 13.

Answer: D) 13


53. Find the inverse of f(x)=x13f(x) = \frac{x - 1}{3}.

  1. Set y=x13y = \frac{x - 1}{3} and solve for xx:
    • Multiply both sides by 3: 3y=x13y = x - 1.
    • Add 1 to both sides: x=3y+1x = 3y + 1.
  2. Replace yy with f1(x)f^{-1}(x): f1(x)=3x+1f^{-1}(x) = 3x + 1.

Answer: C) f1(x)=3x+1f^{-1}(x) = 3x + 1


54. Simplify the inequality 4(x6)6(x1)4(x - 6) \geq 6(x - 1).

  1. Expand both sides: 4x246x64x - 24 \geq 6x - 6.
  2. Move terms with xx to one side: 24+62x182x-24 + 6 \geq 2x \Rightarrow -18 \geq 2x.
  3. Divide by 2: 9x-9 \geq x or x9x \leq -9.

Answer: A) x9x \leq -9


55. In the graph, given point B(12,5)B(12, 5), find the likely coordinates of AA.

  • Observing the position, (8, 10) is in line with a plausible shift.

Answer: B) (8, 10)


56. The y-intercept of y=3x+1y = 3x + 1

  • The y-intercept is the constant term when x=0x = 0, which is +1+1.

Answer: B) 1


57. Line graph for 2x3-2 \leq x \leq 3.

  • The correct representation is a closed circle at -2 and 3, representing inclusive boundaries.

Answer: A
