Lorine is 54 years old and her mother is 80yrs old. How many years ago was Lorine’s mother three times her age?
Answer: 41 years ago
Working: Lorine’s current age = 54 years
Her mother’s current age = 80 years
x years ago, their ages were:
Lorine: 54 − x
Mother: 80 – x
At that time, Lorine’s mother was three times her age:
80 − x =3(54 − x)
80 − x=162 − 3x
2x = 82; x = 41

A truck leaves Nakuru heading towards Nairobi at 70 km/h. One hour later, a car leaves Nairobi towards Nakuru at 90 km/h. If the distance between Nakuru and Nairobi is 160 km, after how many hours from when the car leaves will they meet?
Ans: 0.56 hours (≈ 34 minutes) after the car leaves Nairobi.
Distance between Nakuru and Nairobi = 160 km; Truck speed = 70 km/h; Car speed = 90 km/h; Truck leaves 1 hour earlier
In 1hr; truck covers 70km (speed 70km/h); Distance left is 90km
Relative speed= 70+90= 160km/h
Time to meet = Dist/relative speed= (90/160) * 60 = 0.56hrs; ~34 minutes

A regular polygon has each interior angle measuring 150°. (Get 2 correct)
Find the number of sides of the polygon.
Name the polygon.
Answer: 1 = 30°; 2 = 12 sides; 3 = Dodecagon
Step 1: Relation between interior and exterior angles
Interior angle + Exterior angle=180°
Let ext. be x; 150° + x = 180°; x = 30°
Step 2: Find the number of sides
Number of sides=360°/Exterior angle
360°/30°=12 sides
Step 3: Name of polygon
A 12-sided polygon is called a dodecagon.
