  1. 1
    Histograms2 marks

    On a histogram, a 4-wide bar and a 12-wide bar have the same frequency density of 3. How many more values are in the wider class?

  2. 2
    Bounds3 marks

    A block has mass 580 g (to the nearest 10 g) and volume 6 cm^3 (to the nearest cm^3). Work out the upper bound of its density, to 2 decimal places.

  3. 3
    Inverse and Composite Functions3 marks

    f(x) = 4x - 9 and g(x) = 2x - 4. Work out fg(5).

  4. 4
    Velocity Time Graphs3 marks

    A tram runs at 8 m/s for 20 s, then slows steadily to rest over 4 s. Work out its average speed for the whole journey, to 2 decimal places.

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

    The 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.
