Every sheet in November 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 November 1967A bag holds 12 counters, r of them red. Two are taken without replacement and P(both red) = 7/22. Work out r.
  2. 2nd November 1967A histogram has two bars: one 10 units wide with frequency density 2, one 25 units wide with density 0.6. How many values in total?
  3. 3rd November 1967Rationalise the denominator of 54/sqrt(6), giving your answer in its simplest form.
  4. 4th November 1967f(x) = 4x - 5 and g(x) = 6x + 6. Work out fg(-1).
  5. 5th November 1967y is inversely proportional to x^2. When x = 5, y = 144. Work out y when x = 6.
  6. 6th November 1967In a circle theorem proof, a step uses the fact that a triangle is drawn from the ends of a diameter to a point on the circle. State the reason being quoted.
  7. 7th November 1967The probability of winning a game is 7/8. A player expects 84 wins. How many games did they play?
  8. 8th November 1967On a histogram, a 5-wide bar and a 20-wide bar have the same frequency density of 2.5. How many more values are in the wider class?
  9. 9th November 1967Simplify sqrt(72) + sqrt(50), giving your answer in the form a sqrt(b).
  10. 10th November 1967The curve y = cos x° is drawn for 0 <= x <= 360. Write down the value of y when x = 270.
  11. 11th November 1967y is directly proportional to x^3. When x = 3, y = 54. Work out y when x = 4.
  12. 12th November 1967In a vector proof you find that vector PQ = 6a + 6b and vector RS = 18a + 18b. What does this show about PQ and RS?
  13. 13th November 1967A bag holds 8 red and n blue counters. The probability of taking a red is 4/5. Work out n.
  14. 14th November 1967A histogram has two bars: one 5 units wide with frequency density 2, one 5 units wide with density 1.4. How many values in total?
  15. 15th November 1967A rectangle is 30 cm by 12 cm, each correct to the nearest cm. Work out the upper bound of its area.
  16. 16th November 1967A quadratic sequence starts 16, 35, 64, 103. Work out the second difference, and the coefficient of n^2.
  17. 17th November 1967y is directly proportional to sqrt(x). When x = 25, y = 20. Work out y when x = 81.
