 ITEM TWO
A camping site attracts visitors among which include children, men and women. On a certain
day, the manager of the site recorded the attendance as ratios. Men : Women = 5:4 and
Women : Children
= 3 :7. In total 224 children visited the camping site that day. However, the manager was not
sure of the number of men and women who visited the site that day.
In 2024, the cost of a ticket to the campsite for children was at half price that for adults and that a
ticket for adults cost UGX30,000. In order to attract more customers, the manager instructed the
attendants to set the ticket charges for 2025 such that their cost is less by 20%. However, the
attendants were not sure of the exact costs to set for 2025.
Task:
(a) Help the manager to find the total number of men and women who visited the camping site that day.
(b) Determine the amount of money collected by the camping site on that day.
(c) Determine the cost for the tickets for children and in 2025.

PATTERNS AND ALGEBRA

ITEM THREE
After occupying his new house with his entire family, a man was told that the cost of water used
will be equal to the sum of a constant service fee of shs.3500 and the cost of the number of units
used per month. In the first month he paid shs.15500 for 4 units used and in the second month he
was sent a bill of shs.33500 for the 10 units used. He wants to determine the cost of each unit
for proper budgeting.
To reduce on the money he spends on water every month the man decided to dig a well of 11
metres where he will place a water pump, he has been told that the cost of digging the well will
be as follows shs.20,000 for the first meter, shs.21,500 for the second meter, shs.23,000 for the
third meter and so on ,the cost kept increasing in that way for every meter. The man has saved
shs.350,000 for the job so he needs to determine the cost of digging the last meter and the total
cost of digging the well.
Task:
(a) Develop a mathematical relationship that will help the man determine the cost of each unit of
water.
(b) (i) Using your mathematical skills help the man to determine the cost of digging the last meter.
(ii) Will the money he has saved be enough for digging the well?

ITEM FOUR
An engineer was contracted by a certain hotel to design a new parking lot. On reaching the
hotel, the engineer picked up measurements for two straight lines perpendicular to each other.
For the first line, he picked two points which he recorded as (𝟐, −𝟒) and (−𝟔, 𝟗) and for the
second line he picked up only one point and recorded it as (-4, 6).
The new parking lot is to be rectangular in shape, with its breadth 3 m less than its length. Its
area is to be 4 square meters more than the area of the old parking lot whose shape is in form of
an isosceles triangle of height 12 m with its base as the breadth of the rectangular parking lot.

He also visited the library and found out that previous candidates used three books for
their revision; Longhorn, Baroque or Math Clinic. From the Librarian’s records it is
clear that those who did not use any books failed the subjects greatly. Out of the 50
candidates this year 13 used Longhorn, 20 used Baroque and 17 used Math Clinic.
9 used Longhorn and Math Clinic, 3 used Longhorn and Baroque while 8 used
Baroque and Math Clinic only. The records show that 2 used all the three books. He
observed that he should replace one book type of the three with Fountain Publisher
since no student read it only alone.

ITEM 20.
Ms. Evelyn, the school counselor, wanted to organize some engaging after-
school clubs but first needed to understand the students' interests. She
surveyed 100 students, asking if they liked Mathematics (M), Physics (P), or
Chemistry (C). The results were a bit complex: 55 students ticked
Mathematics, 40 liked Physics, and 30 were keen on Chemistry. Overlapping
interests included 20 for Math and Physics, 15 for Math and Chemistry, and
10 for Physics and Chemistry. A small group of 5 enthusiastic students liked
all three. Ms. Evelyn needed a clear picture of these preferences to make
informed decisions about the clubs.
Task:
(a) Illustrate the survey results showing the relationship between the
students’ subject preferences and their overlaps.

ITEM 28.
A community needed a large water storage solution, so they decided to
install a cylindrical tank with a radius of 3.5 meters and a height of 6 meters.
To protect it from the elements and make it look presentable, they planned to
paint its entire outer surface, but understandably, not the part resting on the
ground (the base). They found out the paint costs UGX 15,000 for every
square meter it covers. They also wondered just how much water the tank
could hold when full.
Task:
(a) Calculate the external surface area of the cylindrical tank that needs to be
painted, excluding the base.
(b) Determine the total cost required to purchase the paint for the tank's
exterior.
(c) If 1 liter of water occupies a volume of 0.001m3, calculate the
maximum volume of water (capacity) the tank can hold.

Item 28 (a) Surface = 2πrh + πr² (top only) = 2π×3.5×6 + π×3.5².

(b) Total cost = area × 15,000 UGX.
(c) Volume = πr²h ⇒ convert to litres: m³ × 1000.

ITEM 29.
A graphic designer was working on a new logo based on a simple triangle
with corners at P(2, 1), Q(5, 1), and R(2, 5) on a digital grid. As part of the
design process, she first created a mirrored version of the triangle by reflecting
it across the y-axis, resulting in a new triangle P’ Q’ R’. Then, to explore
variations, she took this new triangle P'Q'R' and rotated it 900 counter
clockwise around the center of the grid (the origin) to get the final shape P”
Q” R”. She needed to know the precise locations of the corners of the
transformed triangles and understand the overall effect of the two steps
combined.
Task:

Item 5
A surveyor 1.5 m high standing 100metres away on the left of the base of the
lighthouse, wants to determine the height of the lighthouse. He used the surveyors
tool and measured the angle of elevation of the house as 350. He then went up the
lighthouse to a window 10 meters below the top of the house and looked down at a
boat on the bank at the opposite side and measured the angle of depression of the
boat as 280. He also wants to know the distance between the him and the boat.
He observed the boat sailing out to sea from bank A in a direction of 0750 for 800m
towards point B. It then changed course and moved in a direction of 2850 for 500m
until it stopped before reaching point C.
Tasks:

between the surveyor and the first position of the boat.

(b) Help the surveyor determine the distance the boat will cover to if it were to
move directly from A to point C.

Item 6
A tent-making company has got an order from a client who wants a square-based
tent with sides 12m and its vertical poles to stand at a height of 5m. Its roof is to be
of the form of a right pyramid with its vertex standing 8m above the ground.
Onyango was asked to determine the least amount of canvas material that would be
needed to cover the roof and the three sides of the tent.
The tent costs shs1,300,000 but the company offers a discount of 3% if one pays
cash but the client was not sure of the actual amount to pay.

size and 2 cylindrical drums of another.

• The smaller drum has a base radius of 40 cm and a height of 80 cm.

• The larger drum has a base radius of 70 cm and a height of 120 cm.
He plans to fill these drums completely with juice to serve the festival guests.

TASKS:
(a) Determine the shortest distance and the bearing the entrepreneur must follow to travel
directly from Lyantonde back to his home in Kampala.
(b) Calculate the total amount of money the entrepreneur paid for the 600 pineapples after all
applicable discounts.
(c) If he fills all the drums he bought completely, what is the total volume of juice (in litres) he

Item 3.

The chairperson of a rural community development association in Jinja has secured a grant to build
a modern community learning center. The building's design is unique; the main hall is to be
constructed in the shape of a regular octagon to maximize space and aesthetics. The local
contractor has provided the cost based on the tiling of the floor. He explains that the area of each
of the congruent isosceles triangles formed by drawing lines from the center of the octagon to its
vertices will cost UGX 15,000,000 to tile with high-quality ceramic material.

To facilitate the construction, the association needs to buy a sturdy pickup truck to ferry materials
like cement, iron sheets, and timber from Jinja town to the site. They visit a local dealership and
find a suitable Toyota Hilux.
• The cash price of the Hilux is UGX 180,000,000.

• As an alternative to cash, the dealership offers a hire-purchase option:

o A 30% deposit of the cash price is required.

o The balance can be paid in 24 equal monthly installments of UGX 6,500,000.
