9 4 The workers of a company can take public transport to travel from the company to the nearest Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) station. They can travel by basic bus, Light Rail Transit (LRT) or express bus. When paying with a fare card, the fares are $0.7 0 for basic bus, $0.80 for LRT and $1.40 for express bus. This information can be represented by the matrix 0.70 0.80 1.40 F = . When paying by cash, the fares for basic bus and LRT increase by 85% and the fare for express bus increases by 60% . (a) The elements of the matrix S, where 00 00 00 a S b F c = , represents the fares for basic bus, LRT and express bus when paid by cash. (i) Find the values of a, b and c. Answer a = …………………………….. [1] Answer b = …………………………….. [1] Answer c = …………………………….. [1]
10 (ii) Hence evaluate S. Answer S = …………………………….. [2] (b) The workers work in three shifts. The table below shows the mode of transport they chose to travel to the MRT station after completing their shifts each day. Basic bus LRT Express bus Shift 1 25 14 0 Shift 2 18 20 19 Shift 3 13 20 7
