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 1994A histogram has two bars: one 20 units wide with frequency density 1.5, one 5 units wide with density 3. How many values in total?
  2. 2nd June 1994Simplify sqrt(27) + sqrt(27), giving your answer in the form a sqrt(b).
  3. 3rd June 1994Solve x^2 + 13x + 42 > 0.
  4. 4th June 1994y is directly proportional to sqrt(x). When x = 49, y = 14. Work out y when x = 81.
  5. 5th June 1994A cuboid measures 12 cm by 7 cm by 4 cm tall. Work out the angle between its longest internal diagonal and the base, to 1 decimal place.
  6. 6th June 1994A bag holds 3 red, 4 blue and 4 green counters. Two are taken without replacement. Given neither is green, what is the probability both are red?
  7. 7th June 1994On a histogram, a 10-wide bar and a 30-wide bar have the same frequency density of 1.5. How many more values are in the wider class?
  8. 8th June 1994A rectangle is 6 cm by 5 cm, each correct to the nearest cm. Work out the upper bound of its area.
  9. 9th June 1994Write x^2 - 8x + 6 in the form (x + a)^2 + b.
  10. 10th June 1994A train slows steadily from 25 m/s to rest in 10 seconds. Work out its deceleration.
  11. 11th June 1994The point (8, 15) lies on the circle x^2 + y^2 = 289. Work out the gradient of the tangent to the circle at that point.
  12. 12th June 1994A bag holds 6 counters, r of them red. Two are taken without replacement and P(both red) = 1/5. Work out r.
  13. 13th June 1994A histogram has two bars: one 5 units wide with frequency density 1.5, one 10 units wide with density 3.5. How many values in total?
  14. 14th June 1994Expand and simplify (8 + sqrt(11))(8 - sqrt(11)).
  15. 15th June 1994Work out the coordinates of the turning point of y = x^2 - 8x + 1.
  16. 16th June 1994y is inversely proportional to x^2. When x = 3, y = 36. Work out y when x = 6.
  17. 17th June 1994In a circle theorem proof, a step uses the fact that OA and OB are both radii of the circle, so triangle OAB is isosceles. State the reason being quoted.
  18. 18th June 1994The probability of winning a game is 4/5. A player expects 8 wins. How many games did they play?
  19. 19th June 1994On a histogram, a 4-wide bar and a 12-wide bar have the same frequency density of 1.5. How many more values are in the wider class?
  20. 20th June 1994A block has mass 660 g (to the nearest 10 g) and volume 21 cm^3 (to the nearest cm^3). Work out the upper bound of its density, to 2 decimal places.
  21. 21st June 1994Simplify (x^2 - 9x + 18)/(x - 3).
  22. 22nd June 1994y is directly proportional to x^3. When x = 2, y = 40. Work out y when x = 3.
  23. 23rd June 1994In a vector proof you find that vector PQ = 3a - 5b and vector RS = 9a - 15b. What does this show about PQ and RS?
  24. 24th June 1994A bag holds 4 red and n blue counters. The probability of taking a red is 2/3. Work out n.
  25. 25th June 1994A histogram has two bars: one 20 units wide with frequency density 1.5, one 5 units wide with density 0.8. How many values in total?
  26. 26th June 1994x = 46 and y = 9, each correct to the nearest whole number. Work out the upper bound of x - y.
  27. 27th June 1994In an algebraic proof, how would you write a multiple of 6 in terms of an integer n?
  28. 28th June 1994y is directly proportional to sqrt(x). When x = 36, y = 24. Work out y when x = 4.
  29. 29th June 1994A cuboid measures 9 cm by 14 cm by 10 cm. Work out the length of the longest diagonal inside it, to 1 decimal place.
  30. 30th June 1994A bag holds 8 red and 6 blue counters. Two are taken without replacement. Given the first was red, what is the probability the second is blue?
