2. IDENTIFY AND USE INFORMATION FROM DIFFERENT REPRESENTATIONS OF RELATIONSHIPS TO SOLVE PROBLEMS IN THE WORKPLACE
• At the end of this outcome, you will be able to:• Identify and select information from
different representations of relationships to solve problems
• Use and develop formulae with confidence
Activity 10
• Solve the following equations by logic:
1.14t =28 What is the value of t
2.x / 1000 = 56 What is the value of x
3.V = (28)(160)(17) What does V stand for and what is its value?
4.6500 = (8)(25)(h) What does the “h” stand for and what is its value?
2
56 000
Volume 76 160 units3
Height 32.5 units
Activity 11
1. Select the correct formula from the given table and then calculate the unknown value by using the given substitution values.
a. SI if P=R20 000; t = 10 years and r =15%
b. S if d = 42.2km at t=2hrs25min
c. Volume of a tank if r of the base = 2.5m and the height of cylinder =9.25m
SI = R30 000
S = 17, 46 km.h-1
