- 1Histograms2 marks
On a histogram, a 5-wide bar and a 10-wide bar have the same frequency density of 2. How many more values are in the wider class?
- 2Bounds3 marks
A block has mass 700 g (to the nearest 10 g) and volume 24 cm^3 (to the nearest cm^3). Work out the upper bound of its density, to 2 decimal places.
- 3Rearranging Harder Formulae3 marks
Make x the subject of 2x + 4 = y(x + 4).
- 4Velocity Time Graphs3 marks
A cyclist speeds up steadily from 9 m/s to 28 m/s over 10 seconds. Use the area under the velocity-time graph to find the distance travelled.
- 5Perpendicular Lines and the equation of a tangent3 marks
The point (7, 24) lies on the circle x^2 + y^2 = 625. Work out the gradient of the tangent to the circle at that point.
