The number of bags of beans were to be at least 6. A bag of maize costs Ksh 2 500 and a bag of beans costs Ksh 3 500. The school had Ksh 100 000 to purchase the maize and beans. Write down all the inequalities that satisfy the above information. (4 marks) 16. (a)Find in radians, the values of x in the interval O’⋜ x Πc for which 2 cos2x — sin x = I. (Leave the answer in terms of Π) (4 marks) (b) Calculate the mid-ordinates of 5 strips between x – 1 and x = 6 Use the mid-ordinates rule to approximate, the area under the curve between x-1 ,X = 6 and the x axis.(3 marks) (c) Assuming that the area determined by integration to be the actual area,calculate the percentage error in using the mid-ordinate rule.(4 marks) Section II (50 marks) Answer any five questions from this section in the spaces provided 17. A garden measures 10 m long and 8 m wide. A path of uniform width is made all round the garden. The total area of the garden and the path is 168 m2. (a) Find the width of the path. (4 marks) (b) The path is to be covered with square concrete slabs. Each corner of the path is covered with a slab whose side is equal to the width of the path.
