To solve any problem in mathematics you have to read and understand the problem you are to solve, especially word problem related questions. Failure to carefully read the question might lead to wrong interpretation of the problem and the result of it will be wrong solution to the problem. All problems on this platform have been carefully solved and prepared. If you are a student looking for solutions to your assignments then you are at the right place.  If you are an upcoming teacher looking for solution to a challenging question then you are also at the right place. 

You can as well contribute to the growth of this platform by sending questions and answers using the comment box. Ensure that questions and answers sent are correct as wrong answers to questions can be misleading. Let us together make math fun for student to learn.  Don't just copy solved problem here, learn them send your questions and contribution using the comment box 

Don't fail to tell a friend. Make learning of math fun for them.

Volume of frustum and hemisphere

The volume of a frustum of a cone of height h is given by the  V= 1/3*pi*h (R^2 +Rr +r^2), Where R and r are the radii of its circular ends. Hollow metal hemispheres of internal and external diameters 12.5cm and 17.5cm, respectively, are to be cast from the molten contents of a ladle in the shape of a frustum of a cone of depth 1.2 metres and radii of ends 0.6m and 0.675m. Calculate the number of hemispheres that can be cast.

Solving Simultaneous equation using matrix method

Solving Simultaneous equation  using matrix  Method Question: Find the values of  x and y in the equations below 3 x + 2 y = 6 5 x − y = 8 Using matrix method Put the equations in standard form and then use matrices to solve the system of equations. 3 x + 2 y = 6 , 5 x − y = 8 Write the equations in matrix form ( 3 5 ​ 2 − 1 ​ ) ( x y ​ ) = ( 6 8 ​ ) Left multiply the equation by the inverse matrix of  ( 3 5 ​ 2 − 1 ​ ) . i n v e r s e ( ( 3 5 ​ 2 − 1 ​ ) ) ( 3 5 ​ 2 − 1 ​ ) ( x y ​ ) = i n v e r s e ( ( 3 5 ​ 2 − 1 ​ ) ) ( 6 8 ​ ) The product of a matrix and its inverse is the identity matrix ( 1 0 ​ 0 1 ​ ) ( x y ​ ) = i n v e r s e ( ( 3 5 ​ 2 − 1 ​ ) ) ( 6 8 ​ ) Multiply the matrices on the left hand side of the equal sign. ( x y ​ ) = i n v e r s e ( ( 3 5 ​ 2 − 1 ​ ) ) ( 6 8 ​ ) For the  2 × 2  matrix  ( a c ​ b d ​ ) , the inverse matrix is  ( a d − b c d ​ a d − b c − c ​ ​ a d − b c − b ​ a d − b c a ​ ​ ) , so the matrix equation can be ...
