Every sheet in June 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 June 1967Make x the subject of 5x + 6 = y(x + 6).
  2. 2nd June 1967y is directly proportional to sqrt(x). When x = 9, y = 6. Work out y when x = 81.
  3. 3rd June 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.
  4. 4th June 1967A bag holds 10 counters, r of them red. Two are taken without replacement and P(both red) = 1/3. Work out r.
  5. 5th June 1967On a histogram, a 5-wide bar and a 20-wide bar have the same frequency density of 2. How many more values are in the wider class?
  6. 6th June 1967Expand and simplify (4 + sqrt(5))(4 - sqrt(5)).
  7. 7th June 1967Write 4/(x - 3) + 3/(x - 2) as a single fraction.
  8. 8th June 1967A train slows steadily from 20 m/s to rest in 4 seconds. Work out its deceleration.
  9. 9th June 1967In a circle theorem proof, a step uses the fact that the angle in a semicircle is being proved. State the reason being quoted.
  10. 10th June 1967The probability of winning a game is 3/5. A player expects 48 wins. How many games did they play?
  11. 11th June 1967A histogram has two bars: one 20 units wide with frequency density 2.5, one 5 units wide with density 0.6. How many values in total?
  12. 12th June 1967A block has mass 820 g (to the nearest 10 g) and volume 4 cm^3 (to the nearest cm^3). Work out the upper bound of its density, to 2 decimal places.
  13. 13th June 1967Solve 20x^2 - 21x + 4 = 0.
  14. 14th June 1967y is inversely proportional to x^2. When x = 5, y = 9. Work out y when x = 3.
