1
Histograms3 marks
A histogram has two bars: one 20 units wide with frequency density 2.5, one 10 units wide with density 1.4. How many values in total?
2
Bounds3 marks
x = 40 and y = 11, each correct to the nearest whole number. Work out the upper bound of x - y.
3
Factorising Harder Quadratics3 marks
Solve 8x^2 + 30x + 25 = 0.
4
Velocity Time Graphs2 marks
On a velocity-time graph a car speeds up in a straight line from 1 m/s to 11 m/s over 20 seconds. Work out the acceleration.
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.
