    INTRODUCTION

    In Higher Engineering Mathematics 5th Edition there are 74 chapters; each chapter contains

    numerous fully worked problems and further problems with answers, the latter being contained

    within some 250 Exercises arranged evenly throughout the text. In addition, there are 19

    Assignments at regular intervals within the text. These Assignments do not have answers given

    since it is envisaged that lecturers could set the Assignments for students to attempt as part of their

    course structure. The worked solutions to the Assignments are contained in this Instructors

    Manual and with each is a full suggested marking scheme.

    Some remedial algebra is made available on the web, together with a Remedial Algebra

    Assignment, the solutions of which are included in this manual.

    ASSIGNMENT 1 (PAGE 50)

    This assignment covers the material contained in chapters 1 to 5.

    Problem 1. Factorise 3 2x 4x x 6+ + using the factor theorem. Hence solve the equation

    3 2x 4x x 6+ + = 0 Marks

    Let f (x) = 3 2x 4x x 6+ + then f (1) = 1 + 4 + 1 - 6 = 0, hence (x - 1) is a factor

    f (2) = 8 + 16 + 2 - 6 = 20

    f (-1) = - 1 + 4 - 1 - 6 = - 4

    f (-2) = - 8 + 16 - 2 - 6 = 0, hence (x + 2) is a factor

    f (-3) = - 27 + 36 - 3 - 6 = 0, hence (x + 3) is a factor

    Thus 3 2x 4x x 6+ + = (x - 1)(x + 2)(x + 3) 3 If 3 2x 4x x 6+ + = 0 then (x - 1)(x + 2)(x + 3) = 0 from which, x = 1, -2 or -3 2

    Total: 5

    Problem 2. Use the remainder theorem to find the remainder when 3 22x x 7x 6+ is divided by (a) (x - 2) (b) (x + 1). Hence factorise the cubic expression.

    Marks

    (a) When 3 22x x 7x 6+ is divided by (x - 2), the remainder is given by: 3 2ap bp cp d+ + + , where a = 2, b = 1, c = -7, d = -6 and p = 2,

    i.e. the remainder is: ( ) ( )3 22 2 1 2 7(2) 6+ = 16 + 4 - 14 - 6 = 0 2 hence (x - 2) is a factor of 3 22x x 7x 6+ (b) When 3 22x x 7x 6+ is divided by (x + 1), the remainder is given

    by: ( ) ( ) ( )3 22 1 1 1 7 1 6 + = - 2 + 1 + 7 - 6 = 0 2 hence (x + 1) is a factor of 3 22x x 7x 6+

    Either by dividing 3 22x x 7x 6+ by (x - 2)(x + 1) or by using the factor or remainder theorems the third factor is found to be (2x + 3)

    Hence 3 22x x 7x 6+ = (x - 2)(x + 1)(2x + 3) 3 Total: 7

    Problem 3. Simplify 26x 7x 52x 1+ by dividing out

    Marks

    3x + 5 2x - 1 26x 7x 5+ 26x 3x 10x 5 10x 5 . .

    Hence 26x 7x 52x 1+ = 3x + 5 4

    Total: 4

    Problem 4. Solve the following inequalities:

    (a) 2 5x 9 + 2x (b) 3 2t+ 6 (c) x 13x 5

    + > 0

    (d) ( )23t 2+ > 16 (e) 22x x 3 < 0 Marks

    (a) Since 2 5x 9 + 2x then 2 9 2x + 5x i.e. 7 7x from which, -1 x or x -1 2

    (b) Since 3 2t+ 6 then -6 3 + 2t 6

    -6 3 + 2t becomes 9 2t i.e. 4.5 t and 3 + 2t 6 becomes 2t 3 i.e. t 1.5 Hence, 4.5 t 1.5 3

    (a) Since x 13x 5

    + > 0 then

    x 13x 5

    + must be positive

    (i) x > 1 and x > -5/3 thus, x > 1 (ii) x < 1 and x < -5/3 thus, x < -5/3 Thus, x > 1 or x < -5/3 3

    (d) Since ( )23t 2+ > 16 then 3t + 2 > 16 or 3t + 2 < - 16 i.e. 3t + 2 > 4 or 3t + 2 < -4 i.e. 3t > 2 or 3t < -6 hence, t > 2/3 or t < -2 3

    (e) Since 22x x 3 < 0 then (2x 3)(x + 1) < 0 hence, either(i) (2x 3) > 0 and (x + 1) < 0 or (ii) (2x 3) < 0 and (x + 1) > 0 (i) x > 3/2 and x < -1 and it is not possible to satisfy both (ii) x < 3/2 and x > -1 i.e. -1 < x < 1.5 3 Total : 14

    Hence x - 11 = A(x + 1) + B(x - 2)

    Let x = 2: - 9 = 3A hence A = -3

    (a) Since ln x = 2.40 then x = 2.40e = 11.02 2

    (b) Since x 1 x 23 5 = then x 1 x 2lg 3 lg 5 = and (x - 1)lg 3 = (x - 2)lg 5

    i.e. x lg 3 - lg 3 = x lg 5 - 2 lg 5
