Every sheet in April 1967

The same date always regenerates the same five questions, so a sheet you print today is the sheet a classmate prints tomorrow.

  1. 1st April 1967A car covers 500 m (to the nearest 10 m) in 2 s (to the nearest second). Work out the lower bound of its speed, to 2 decimal places.
  2. 2nd April 1967The point (3, -1) lies on y = f(x). Write down its image on y = -f(x).
  3. 3rd April 1967y is inversely proportional to x^2. When x = 5, y = 16. Work out y when x = 2.
  4. 4th April 1967The point (3, 4) lies on the circle x^2 + y^2 = 25. Work out the gradient of the tangent to the circle at that point.
  5. 5th April 1967A bag holds 10 counters, r of them red. Two are taken without replacement and P(both red) = 1/15. Work out r.
  6. 6th April 1967On a histogram, a 10-wide bar and a 40-wide bar have the same frequency density of 3. How many more values are in the wider class?
  7. 7th April 1967Rationalise the denominator of 22/sqrt(2), giving your answer in its simplest form.
  8. 8th April 1967Prove that the sum of 3 consecutive integers is always a multiple of 3. State the simplified sum you would use.
  9. 9th April 1967y is directly proportional to x^3. When x = 4, y = 384. Work out y when x = 3.
  10. 10th April 1967In a circle theorem proof, a step uses the fact that the exterior angle of a cyclic quadrilateral is being found. State the reason being quoted.
  11. 11th April 1967The probability of winning a game is 1/2. A player expects 16 wins. How many games did they play?
  12. 12th April 1967A histogram has two bars: one 20 units wide with frequency density 0.4, one 10 units wide with density 0.6. How many values in total?
  13. 13th April 1967Simplify sqrt(72) + sqrt(32), giving your answer in the form a sqrt(b).
  14. 14th April 1967f(x) = 3x + 9 and g(x) = 3x - 5. Work out fg(2).
  15. 15th April 1967y is directly proportional to sqrt(x). When x = 16, y = 28. Work out y when x = 36.
  16. 16th April 1967In a vector proof you find that vector PQ = 4a - 6b and vector RS = 20a - 30b. What does this show about PQ and RS?
  17. 17th April 1967A bag holds 2 red and n blue counters. The probability of taking a red is 2/5. Work out n.
  18. 18th April 1967On a histogram, a 10-wide bar and a 40-wide bar have the same frequency density of 2.5. How many more values are in the wider class?
  19. 19th April 1967A rectangle is 24 cm by 28 cm, each correct to the nearest cm. Work out the upper bound of its area.
  20. 20th April 1967The curve y = cos x° is drawn for 0 <= x <= 360. Write down the value of y when x = 360.
  21. 21st April 1967A train slows steadily from 15 m/s to rest in 4 seconds. Work out its deceleration.
  22. 22nd April 1967A cuboid measures 8 cm by 3 cm by 4 cm. Work out the length of the longest diagonal inside it, to 1 decimal place.
  23. 23rd April 1967A bag holds 7 red and 4 blue counters. Two are taken without replacement. Given the first was red, what is the probability the second is blue?
  24. 24th April 1967A histogram has two bars: one 10 units wide with frequency density 1.2, one 25 units wide with density 1.4. How many values in total?
  25. 25th April 1967Expand and simplify (5 + sqrt(11))(5 - sqrt(11)).
