- 1Histograms3 marks
A histogram has two bars: one 5 units wide with frequency density 2.5, one 25 units wide with density 0.8. How many values in total?
- 2Bounds3 marks
x = 73 and y = 28, each correct to the nearest whole number. Work out the upper bound of x - y.
- 3Quadratic Simultaneous Equations3 marks
Solve x^2 + y^2 = 625 and y = x - 17 simultaneously.
- 4Direct and Inverse Proportion Depth3 marks
y is directly proportional to x^2. When x = 3, y = 72. Work out the positive value of x when y = 200.
- 5Proof of the Circle Theorems2 marks
In a circle theorem proof, a step uses the fact that two angles at the circumference stand on the same arc. State the reason being quoted.
