- 1Histograms3 marks
A histogram has two bars: one 20 units wide with frequency density 1.5, one 25 units wide with density 0.8. How many values in total?
- 2Bounds3 marks
A block has mass 200 g (to the nearest 10 g) and volume 8 cm^3 (to the nearest cm^3). Work out the upper bound of its density, to 2 decimal places.
- 3Algebraic Fractions3 marks
Write 5/(x + 4) + 7/(x - 6) as a single fraction.
- 4Direct and Inverse Proportion Depth3 marks
y is directly proportional to x^2. When x = 6, y = 108. Work out the positive value of x when y = 243.
- 5Perpendicular Lines and the equation of a tangent3 marks
The point (12, 16) lies on the circle x^2 + y^2 = 400. Work out the gradient of the tangent to the circle at that point.
