- 1Histograms3 marks
A histogram has two bars: one 10 units wide with frequency density 2.5, one 10 units wide with density 0.8. How many values in total?
- 2Surds3 marks
Rationalise the denominator of 27/sqrt(3), giving your answer in its simplest form.
- 3Trigonometric and Exponential Graphs2 marks
