A histogram has four 20-wide classes from 0, with frequency densities 3, 1, 0.5, 2. Which class contains the median?
- 3Bounds3 marks
A block has mass 400 g (to the nearest 10 g) and volume 15 cm^3 (to the nearest cm^3). Work out the upper bound of its density, to 2 decimal places.
- 4Inverse and Composite Functions3 marks
f(x) = 5x - 9 and g(x) = 4x - 4. Work out fg(-2).
- 5Direct and Inverse Proportion Depth3 marks
y is directly proportional to sqrt(x). When x = 9, y = 9. Work out y when x = 49.
