  1. 1
    Histograms3 marks

    A histogram has two bars: one 5 units wide with frequency density 1.5, one 25 units wide with density 3.5. How many values in total?

  2. 2
    Bounds3 marks

    A rectangle is 24 cm by 25 cm, each correct to the nearest cm. Work out the upper bound of its area.

  3. 3
    Quadratic Simultaneous Equations3 marks

    Solve x^2 + y^2 = 100 and y = x - 2 simultaneously.

  4. 4
    Direct and Inverse Proportion Depth3 marks

    y is directly proportional to x^2. When x = 5, y = 100. Work out the positive value of x when y = 196.

  5. 5
    Perpendicular Lines and the equation of a tangent3 marks

    The point (9, 40) lies on the circle x^2 + y^2 = 1681. Work out the gradient of the tangent to the circle at that point.
