No one seem to be posting questions on mensuration, I was asked onesphere and one longitude question. Let's not limit mathematics to world problem alone.
My observation though, I stand to be corrected.
Ehn ehn, someone should differentiate btw ' I stand to be corrected and ' I stand corrected'. abi na d same thing ni. I don't think so.
Abeg differentiate with the aid of an example for clearer understanding

1. A boy thinks of a number. He squares it and
subtracts from it original number. The result is
42. what is the number?


Let the number be x

x2 - x = 42

x2 - x - 42 = 0

x2 + 6x - 7x - 42 = 0

x(x+6) -7(x+6) = 0

(x-7) (x+6) = 0

x-7=0 or x+6=0

X=7 or x=-6


2. The altitude of a triangle is 2cm less than the
base and the area is 262.5cm2. Find the length
of the base.

let the base = x

Height(altitude) = x-2

A= 1/2*b*h

262.5= 1/2 * x(x-2)

262.5*2 = x2 - 2x

525= x2 - 2x

x2 - 2x - 525 = 0

Use quadratic formular,

x= 23.93cm

3. A pupil multiples 3 numbers. One of them is
the number 4. of the other 2 numbers, one is
greater than the other by 6. if the result of the
multiplication is 45, find the unknown numbers.
the numbers are fractions.

4. A rectangle has a perimeter of 54cm and an
area of 180cm2. Find its length and width.


P= 2(l+b) and A = lb

2(l+b)= 54

l+b=27........... (1)

lb= 180........ (2)


From eqn (1),

L= 27-b

Sub for l in eqn (2)

(27-b)b= 180

27b-b2= 180

-b2+27b-180=0

b2-27b+180=0

b2-12b-15b+180=0

b(b-12)-15(b-12)=0

(b-15)(b-12)=0

b=15 or b= 12.


When b = 15,

Sub for b in eqn (1)

L+15= 27

L= 27-15

L= 12 ( Wrong because the breadth can not be longer than the length )

When b= 12

L+12= 27

L= 27-12

L=15

Therefore l=15cm, b= 12cm.

Guys be careful as regards who you call o. I just reported a guy that copied my introductory speech and put his number at the end of it making it look like I dropped my number for u guys to call.
The rule should be for u to post ur enquiry and u will be responded to on this thread, no need to call anyone and if there is urgent need to call anyone, I guess u can all call labodinho and maybe tobexin.

A pupil multiples 3 numbers. One of them is the number 4. of the other 2 numbers, one is
greater than the other by 6. if the result of the
multiplication is 45, find the unknown numbers.

let the other two nos be x and y
4xy= 45...... (1)

x= 6+y..... (2)

Sub for x in eqn (1)

4(6+y)(y)=45

24y+4y2=45

24y+4y2-45=0

y2+24y-45=0

Use the quadratic formular,

You will get y= 3/2 or -15/2

But y cannot be negative, so, y= 3/2

Sub for y in eqn (1)

x= 6+ 3/2

x= 12+3/2

x= 15/2

The unknown nos are; 15/2 and 3/2.

You have to look for someone to help u buy the form in skul, then u register in makurdi.
I don't think there is. you can search though. I think this thread is our point of convergence since all applicants regardless of ones faculty is writing same putme combination

Maths English economics and govt are accepted that's more like a common knowledge.
Strangely commerce isnt accepted and the school is quiet about account
but miraculously, Biology qualifies you to study economics in unilag.
Guy don't mind my story, to the best of my knowledge, u are eligible with the ffg combo,
