  1. 1
    Histograms3 marks

    A histogram has two bars: one 20 units wide with frequency density 2.5, one 20 units wide with density 0.8. How many values in total?

  2. 2
    Bounds3 marks

    A car covers 510 m (to the nearest 10 m) in 6 s (to the nearest second). Work out the lower bound of its speed, to 2 decimal places.

  3. 3
    Inverse and Composite Functions3 marks

    f(x) = 5x + 7 and g(x) = 4x - 8. Work out fg(1).

  4. 4
    Direct and Inverse Proportion Depth3 marks

    y is directly proportional to x^2. When x = 2, y = 20. Work out the positive value of x when y = 20.

  5. 5
    Perpendicular 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.
