4 CHIJ SNGS Preliminary Examinations 2017 - Mathematics 4048/02 2 The diagram shows a road junction at O with PO perpendicular to OQ and OP = 60 km. A cyclist, X, starts from P and travels towards O at a constant speed of 10 km/h. At the same time, another cyclist, Y, starts from O and travels towards Q at a constant speed of 15 km/h. (a) Cyclist X leaves from P and cyclist Y leaves from O at noon. Given that t is the time in hours, write down, in terms of t, (i) the distance of X from O after t hours, [1] (ii) the distance of Y from O after t hours. [1] (b) After t hours, the cyclists are 80 km apart. Write down an equation in t to represent this information and show that it reduces to .01124813 2 tt [2] (c) Solve the equation .01124813 2 tt [3] (d) Find the distance of cyclist X from O when the cyclists are 80 km apart[1] 2(ai) t1060 cm 2(aii) 15t cm 2(b) 222 80)15()1060( tt 640022510012003600 22 ttt 028001200325 2 tt 01124813 2 tt 2(c) 01124813 2 tt 26 )112)(13(44848 2 t 62.131.5 tt 2(d) 60 ̶ 10(5.313) = 6.87 km Q 10 km/h P X O 15 km/h Y
