II.​ Problem Solving

1. In 2002, the population of the Philippines was 10 million people. In 1996, it was 8.10 million
million. Using the population growth formula A = P ert , determine the value of r , Philippines’s
relative rate of growth.

A = P ert
10 million = 8.10 million x 2.71828^(0.039)(6)
10 million - 8.10 million/6
1,900,000/8,100,000
=23.4568
23.4568/6
= 3.9% = 0.039
8.10 million x 2.71828^(0.039)(6)
= 10235518.7 million
The Philippines’ relative rate of growth in 1996 from 2002 is 3.9% or 0.039.

2. Mr. Samson borrowed P 50,000 from a bank to start a small business. If the bank charges 5%
interest compounded annually, how much will he pay after 4 years?
 A = P(1 + r/n)^nt
= P50,000(1+0.05/1)^1(4)
=P50,000(1.21550625)
=​ P60,775.31

3. Marlene has P 8,000 in a bank which is below her required maintaining balance. As penalty,
her money decreases at the rate of 2.5% every month. How much will she have after a year?

A = P(1 + r/n)^nt
= P8,000(1+0.025/12)^12(1)
= P8,000(1.02528846)
=P8,202.31
=P8,202.31-P8,000
=​P202.31

4. A Grade 11 teacher monitors his students’ performance in GenMath monthly. He administers

a monthly parallel test to his students. He use the relation S (x) = 82 − 8ln⁡(x + 1) to find the class
mean on the test taken after x month/s
a. What is the mean score on the first test?
b. What is the mean score after 4th months?
c. What is the average scores of the 1​st​ and 4​th​ monthly test?

A. 82-8×ln(1+1)
= ​76.45
B. 82-8×ln(4+1)
= ​69.12
C. 76.45+69.12
=145.57
=145.57/2
=72.785
5. The intensity of a sound in decibels or the loudness is given by the formula d = 10 log ( )
I
Io

where I is the intensity of the sound being measured and I o is the intensity of a standard sound.
What is the rating of a normal voice which is 12,000 times as intense as the standard one?

d = 10 log ( 12,000
10−12 )
= 160.79 db
