- 1Probability Equation Questions3 marks
A bag holds 11 counters, r of them red. Two are taken without replacement and P(both red) = 2/11. Work out r.
- 2Histograms3 marks
A histogram has four 20-wide classes from 0, with frequency densities 1, 3, 2, 0.5. Which class contains the median?
- 3Bounds3 marks
x = 113 and y = 97, each correct to the nearest whole number. Work out the upper bound of x - y.
- 4Transforming Graphs y=f(x)3 marks
The point (4, 1) lies on y = f(x). Write down its image on y = f(x - 3).
- 5Direct and Inverse Proportion Depth3 marks
y is directly proportional to sqrt(x). When x = 9, y = 24. Work out y when x = 64.
