MASILANG-Algebra Part 1 Module 1 Activity No. 2

1. This document contains 4 math word problems from an algebra exam. The problems cover topics like percentage increase of surface area when dimensions change, finding ages based on relationships between two people's ages in the past and future, determining the time when clock hands are at a specific angle, and calculating velocity using the formula that incorporates distance, time, and stream current speed. 2. The student provided step-by-step work showing the calculations and reasoning to arrive at the answer for each problem. Equations and formulas from kinematics and geometry were applied. 3. Answers provided were 44% increase, 40 years old, 1:23.64, and 12.7 kph respectively for the 4 problems

Algebra Part 1 Exercises Problems

Name: MASILANG, PHILIP ANTHONY L.


Student No. 20190139163

Problems:

1. If the edge of the cube is increased by 20%, by how much will the surface area
increase? Ans. 44%

GIVEN: req’d:
s2 = 1.2s increase, %
SAC = 6s2

SOLUTION:
SAC1 = 6s2 SAC2 = 6s2
SAC2 = 6(1.2s)2
SAC2 = 6(1.44s2 )
SAC2 = 8.64s2
SAC2 -SAC1
% increase = (100%)
SAC1
8.64s2 - 6s2
% increase = (100%)
6s2
% increase = 44%

answer:
% increase = 44%
2. In twelve years, Bea’s age will exceed one half of Andre’s age by 10 years.
Sixteen years ago, Andre’s age was 3 times Bea’s age. Find the age of Andre.
Ans. 40

GIVEN: req’d:
12 years from now: Bea’s Age will Andre’s Age
exceed ½ of Andre’s by 10
16 years ago: Andre’s was 3x Bea’s

SOLUTION:
Let x = Bea’s Age
y = Andre’s Age

1
12 Years from Now: x + 12 = (y + 12) + 10
2
1
Therefore: x= y+4
2

16 Years Ago: y - 16 = 3(x - 16)


1
y - 16 = 3 ( y + 4 - 16)
2
1
y - 16 = 3 ( y - 12)
2
3
y - y = 36 - 16
2
y = (20)2
y = 40 years old

answer:
Andre = 40 years old
3. What time after one o’clock will the hands of the clock be 100 degrees to each
other for the first time? Ans. 1:23:64

GIVEN: req’d:
100 degrees after 01:00 time

SOLUTION:
Let x = time
12 to 1 = 5 minutes
x 1
x = 5 mins + + 100° ( )
12 6°
x = 23.6364 after 01:00

answer:
01:23.64
4. Rudy sailed 18 km downstream and back to the same place where he started in
3 hours. Find Rudy’s velocity in still water if the stream current is 3 kph.
Ans. 12.7 kph

GIVEN: req’d:
18 km downstream velocity
time = 3 hrs
current = 3 kph

SOLUTION:
t1 + t2 = 3 hrs
d
From the formula: v=
t
where: v = velocity
d = distance
t = time

d d
Therefore, + =t
v-3 v+3
18 18
(v - 3)(v + 3) [ + ] = [3 hrs](v - 3)(v + 3)
v-3 v+3
18(v + 3) + 18(v - 3) = 3(v - 3)(v + 3)
18v + 54 + 18v - 54 = 3v2 - 27
3v2 - 36v - 27 = 0
v = 12.7082 kph

answer:
v = 12.7082 kph
