Every sheet in March 2022
The same date always regenerates the same five questions, so a sheet you print today is the sheet a classmate prints tomorrow.
- 1st March 2022Expand and simplify (4 + sqrt(2))(4 - sqrt(2)).
- 2nd March 2022Write 5/(x + 2) + 4/(x + 3) as a single fraction.
- 3rd March 2022A train slows steadily from 27 m/s to rest in 8 seconds. Work out its deceleration.
- 4th March 2022A cuboid measures 6 cm by 15 cm by 9 cm. Work out the length of the longest diagonal inside it, to 1 decimal place.
- 5th March 2022A bag holds 9 red and 5 blue counters. Two are taken without replacement. Given the first was red, what is the probability the second is blue?
- 6th March 2022A histogram has two bars: one 10 units wide with frequency density 1.5, one 20 units wide with density 0.8. How many values in total?
- 7th March 2022A block has mass 390 g (to the nearest 10 g) and volume 13 cm^3 (to the nearest cm^3). Work out the upper bound of its density, to 2 decimal places.
- 8th March 2022Solve 9x^2 + 18x + 8 = 0.
- 9th March 2022y is inversely proportional to x^2. When x = 4, y = 50. Work out y when x = 5.
- 10th March 2022A cuboid measures 13 cm by 6 cm by 12 cm tall. Work out the angle between its longest internal diagonal and the base, to 1 decimal place.
- 11th March 2022A bag holds 3 red, 7 blue and 5 green counters. Two are taken without replacement. Given neither is green, what is the probability both are red?
- 12th March 2022On a histogram, a 5-wide bar and a 20-wide bar have the same frequency density of 2. How many more values are in the wider class?
- 13th March 2022x = 73 and y = 22, each correct to the nearest whole number. Work out the upper bound of x - y.
- 14th March 2022f(x) = 5x - 8. Work out the inverse function f^-1(x).
- 15th March 2022y is directly proportional to x^3. When x = 3, y = 54. Work out y when x = 2.
