1.
Let the two integers be n and n+ 2.

n(n + 2) = 48
n² + 2n - 48 = 0
(n + 8)(n - 6) = 0
n = -8(rejected) or n = 6

The two integers are 6 and 8.

2.
Let r be the age of Roger now, and f be that of his father.

f - r = 42 ...... [1]
(r + 2)² = f + 2 ...... [2]

From [1] :
f = r + 42 ...... [3]

Put [3] into [2] :
(r + 2)² = (r + 42) + 2
r² + 4r + 4 = r + 44
r² + 3r - 40 = 0
(r + 8)(r - 5) = 0
r = -8(rejected) or r = 5

Roger is 5 years old now.


=====
3.
The equation 2x² -8x + k = 0 has no real roots. Δ< 0
(-8)² - 4(2)(k) < 0
64 - 8k < 0
8k > 64
k > 8


=====
4.
(a)
5 + k = 5k
4k = 5
k = 5/4

(b)
The equation :
x² - [5 + (5/4)]x + [5 * (5/4)] = 0
x² - (25/4)x + (25/4) = 0
4x² - 25x + 25 = 0


=====
5.
(a)
Slope of L1 = Slope of L2
-2/(-3) = -p/15
3p = -30
p = -10

(b)
Put y = 0 into the equation of L1 :
2x - 0 + q = 0
x = -q/2
The x-intercept of L1 = -q/2

Put x = 0 into the equation of L2 :
0 + 15y - 1 = 0
y = 1/15
The y-intercept of L2 = 1/15

-q/2 = 1/15
15q = -2
q = -2/15


=====
6.
Slope of L2
= Slope of L1
= -3/(-4)
= 3/4

The equation of L2 :
(y + 1)/(x + 1) = 3/4
4y + 4 = 3x + 3
3x - 4y - 1 = 0


=====
7.
Let the larger number be n.
Then, the smaller number = n - 2

n + (n - 2) ≤ 40
2n - 2 ≤ 40
2n ≤ 42
n ≤ 21

The largest possible value of thelarger number is 20.


=====
8.
Let n be the number of correctly answered questions.
Then, the number of wrongly answered questions = 20 - n - 2 = 18 - n

5n - 2(18 - n) - 1(2) > 60
5n - 36 + 2n - 2 > 60
7n > 98
n > 14

The minimum number of correctlyanswered questions is 15.


=====
9.
(a)
f(x)
= (x - 3)(x + 1) - (x - 2)(x + 2)
= (x² -2x - 3) - (x² - 4)
= x² -2x - 3 - x² + 4
= -2x + 1

It is a linear function.

(b)
y = -2x + 1
When x = 0, y = 1
When y = 0, x = 1/2

The x-intercept is 1/2, and the y-intercept is 1.


=====
10.
The five cards are : 3, 6, 9, 12, 15

(a)
P(even number)
= P(6 or 12)
= 2/5

(b)
P(prime number)
= P(3)
= 1/5

(c)
P(factor of 12)
= P(3, 6 or 12)
= 3/5
