- 1Histograms2 marks
On a histogram, a 5-wide bar and a 15-wide bar have the same frequency density of 2.5. How many more values are in the wider class?
- 2Surds3 marks
Rationalise the denominator of 25/sqrt(5), giving your answer in its simplest form.
- 3Trigonometric and Exponential Graphs2 marks
The curve y = sin x° is drawn for 0 <= x <= 360. Write down the value of y when x = 90.
- 4Velocity Time Graphs3 marks
A cyclist speeds up steadily from 2 m/s to 14 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 (9, 40) lies on the circle x^2 + y^2 = 1681. Work out the gradient of the tangent to the circle at that point.
